Bitcoin’s next leg higher sits inside a broader “everything, everywhere, all at once” bull market that echoes the 1950s more than the 1990s—and the underlying engine is fiat debasement that will continue to funnel monetary premiums into neutral reserve assets such as Bitcoin and gold. That is the core of veteran macro analyst and investor Mel Mattison’s thesis in a wide-ranging interview on Milk Road Macro published Monday, October 7. Mattison, a former fintech executive with 25+ years in finance, argues that investors are misreading the cycle by citing relationships from the 1970s and 1980s instead of the earlier regimes that rhyme more closely with today. “I actually t…

Norwegian battery materials producer Vianode announced Friday that its first large-scale production facility for low-emission synthetic anode graphite will be developed in Ontario, Canada. Synthetic graphite is an essential component in lithium-ion batteries and is critical for a range of defence and industrial applications. Vianode’s production facility was featured as part of Canada’s leadership in the G7 Critical Minerals Production Alliance and will contribute to the diversification of resilient, domestic supply chains. The project is structured as a phased, multi‑billion‑dollar investment, starting with an initial investment of over C$2 billion ($1.4 …

Anthropic has released a new report that sheds light on a troubling trend. Criminals used its AI system, Claude, to carry out high-level cybercrime, making it not just a tool but the brains behind the operation. They’ve coined the term “vibe hacking” to describe attacks led entirely by AI agents. These weren’t small targets either. Hospitals, emergency services, religious organizations, and even governments were hit. Some ransom demands climbed past half a million dollars. AI Goes From Consultant to Culprit What makes this so alarming is that Claude wasn’t acting as a sidekick. It was running the show. The AI picked targets, identified weak points, calculated the potenti…

Sitting on significant free cash amid gold trading at record price levels, Agnico Eagle Mines (NYSE; TSX: AEM) would rather hand back surplus cash than chase marginal deals, CEO Ammar Al‑Joundi says. Agnico reported record net income of $815 million (C$1.1 billion) and free cash flow of nearly $600 million in the first quarter of 2025. The Toronto‑based producer says it won’t sacrifice returns per share for size. “If I can’t find something good to do with your money, I would rather give it back to you than invest in something that doesn’t make sense,” Al‑Joundi told The Northern Miner’s western editor, Henry Lazenby, at an industry conference this month in Boca Ra…

Streamex, a New York-based cryptocurrency trading platform, joined mining hall of famer Frank Giustra’s company to secure $1.1 billion (C$1.5 billion) this month to put gold assets on blockchain. They plan to launch a gold-backed treasury strategy, Streamex founder Henry Mcphie told The Northern Miner at a recent industry conference in Boca Raton, Fla. The idea is to turn assets into tokens that can be traded like cryptocurrency. Streamex expects its first asset issuance by year‑end and wants to eclipse existing gold tokens within three years. “We’re going to denominate our balance sheet in gold,” McPhie says in a new video. Tokenized gold will track spot pric…

Things are looking up in the Vietnamese crypto landscape! According to local sources, the country passed its Law on Digital Technology Industry on 14 June 2025. A first of its kind in the country, the legislation aims to properly regulate Vietnam’s newly legitimised digital economy. Local sources have quoted, “The law defines crypto assets as digital assets that use encryption or similar digital technologies for validation during creation, issuance, storage, or transfer.” Interestingly, the legislation demarcates virtual and crypto assets in addition to taking steps to sync up Vietnam’s anti-money laundering (AML) protocols with global standards. Industry experts fores…

Vietnam, the third-largest importer of gold in Asia, issued a decree on Tuesday abolishing its 13-year-old state monopoly on gold trading, causing a spike in local prices even as the government aims to normalize the market in the longer term. Gold bars sold by Saigon Jewelry Co., Vietnam’s largest state-owned gold and jewelry enterprise and the benchmark for bullion trading in the country, climbed to 125.7 million Vietnamese dong per tael for sellers, or about $4,096 per ounce at an exchange rate of 25,450 dong per dollar and 1.2 oz. per tael. Buyers were paying $4,162 per oz., as the new measures introduced short-term volatility. The country, which imported 55 to…

Did the next major move in blockchain technology just come from Vietnam? Developing nations are becoming key crypto drivers, with Vietnam and Pakistan emerging in recent days as potential leaders. Establishing country-level crypto standards like Vietnam has done, or developing frameworks and planning a national Bitcoin reserve, the way Pakistan is doing, can only boost crypto adoption at home and abroad. It also showcases how Bitcoin and broader blockchain technology can help emerging economies fuel growth and innovation. As we’ll discuss later, it could also add rocket fuel to some of the top altcoins. Vietnam, Saylor, Pakistan: 4 Takeaways What do the moves in Paki…

A new meme coin from China, Pudgy Pandas ($PANDA), raised over $300K in one day on presale, gaining significant attention in the Asian crypto market via social platforms like WeChat. With a real-world cause (#FreeThePandas campaign) fuelling its momentum, this new meme coin on presale proves there’s room for more at the party Pudgy Pandas challenges the Pudgy Penguins ($PENGU) franchise, which has dominated the year so far with a market cap of over $2B. Speaking of, the $PENGU ETF with the SEC, as well as the $DOGE ETF, signal the rise of meme coins as serious investment products. That, combined with the growing buzz around projects like Pudgy Pandas, and Pudgy Pengui…

Viridis Mining and Minerals (ASX: VMM) has unveiled an initial reserve estimate of more than 200 million tonnes at its Colossus ionic adsorbed clay (IAC) project in Brazil, underpinning a potential high-grade rare earth mine with potential life of 40 years. At grades of 2,640 parts per million (ppm) in total rare earth oxides (TREOs) and 740 ppm in magnetic rare earth oxide (MREOs), this reserve reaffirms Colossus as a global leading IAC project, the Australian miner says. The total tonnage — derived solely from measured and indicated resources — more than doubles the reserve estimate of 98.5 million that underpins its current prefeasibility study, but at a lower …

VIRTUAL Price Prediction toward $5 and above for the next months – is it realistic or just a dream? As a relatively new crypto project, the question of whether success will come always stands. It is a substantial project that taps into the AI narrative, enabling people to create, co-own, and operate autonomous AI robots/agents for various services and products. AI has been a prominent narrative in the crypto world for about a year. With a total of $90 billion in startup AI VC funding globally, it would be an understatement to say that the world is in the early stages of using artificial intelligence. Only in the past couple of years have we seen Grok, Gemini, ChatGPT…

A feasibility study update for Vista Gold’s (TSX, NYSE-AM: VGZ) open-pit Mt Todd project in Australia almost doubles its value and mine life while cutting costs by 59% over the previous update last year. Shares rose. The study pegs Mt Todd’s initial capital costs at $425 million, while outlining a smaller operation with a 15,000 tonne-per-day (tpd) production rate, down from the 50,000 tpd in last year’s study, Vista said Tuesday. With a 5% discount rate, the net present value jumps almost 95% to $2.2 billion at a price assumption of $3,300 per oz., around the yellow metal’s current price of $3,320 per ounce. That also boosts the internal rate of return (IRR) to 4…

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is calling on developers to reconsider how they license open-source software. In a new blog post, he argued that permissive licenses may no longer be enough to protect innovation in a world where tech giants have become increasingly dominant. Instead, he believes more projects should adopt “copyleft” licenses that require any modified version of the code to remain open. Why Buterin Thinks It Matters Buterin’s concern is that large platforms are now in a position to quietly absorb useful open-source code and lock the benefits behind closed systems. He acknowledged that permissive licenses like MIT and Apache helped grow the open-source …

Ethereum DeFi is back on the menu, boys, as ETH co-founder Vitalik Buterin says decentralized finance has reached a point of maturity and security where it can now function “as a primary bank account.” Speaking at a Dromos Labs event on Wednesday, Buterin argued that DeFi has evolved beyond the risky speculation of the 2020 era and is finally stable enough to serve as a real-world alternative to traditional banking. “We’ll be seeing a growth in more and more cases of people, institutions, all kinds of users around the world actually using this as their primary bank account,” Buterin said.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin weighed in after a large-scale data breach hit several U.S. banks, calling for a shift in how people think about privacy. His message was direct: privacy should be standard practice, not something you add later. What Happened With the Bank Leak The breach involved a cyberattack on SitusAMC, a mortgage tech vendor, that exposed sensitive records linked to big names like JPMorgan, Citi, and Morgan Stanley. Some of the leaked files included accounting records, legal documents, and even customer data. Earlier this year, Vitalik shared ideas for how Ethereum could build in better privacy tools, like stealth addresses and zero-knowl…

Vitalik Buterin Says Base Is Doing Things Right Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has given a nod of approval to Base, the Layer-2 network built on Ethereum. Speaking recently, he said Base is taking the right approach when it comes to balancing user experience and network security. While some critics have called out parts of Base’s setup for being too centralized, Vitalik made it clear that Base still protects users where it matters. He stressed that people using Base won’t lose access to their funds, and they can always withdraw. Base does not have control over people’s assets, which he believes is a key point in its favor. What Base Offers, According to Vitali…

Ethereum price prediction watchers got a triple-shot of chaos this week: Vitalik’s RISC-V push hit resistance from Arbitrum developers, a high-profile ETH whale trade went sideways, and a mystery mega-buyer stepped in with a billion-dollar bid. Put together, it’s the kind of mixed signal cocktail that makes traders either panic-sell or load bags with a grin. Ethereum isn’t lacking narrative right now: it’s drowning in them. The real question is which story wins the next few weeks: slower, careful roadmap upgrades, or raw market positioning from whales who treat dips like black friday. Let’s unpack what actually happened, and what it could mean for ETH next. …

Ethereum has seen it all, from the ICO boom of 2017 to the NFT and DeFi explosion of 2021. Yet, in every cycle, there is a constant: fees. Ethereum is not as scalable as Solana or Base, for example, and users are susceptible to changes in gas fees. While fee changes can be used to gauge trader sentiment, which influences Ethereum price prediction models, the drivers of these fee changes ought to be organic and sustainable. In a blog post on September 21, Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, delivered a sobering message to crypto investors and degens chasing the next god candle. He thinks that for Ethereum to survive, the chain should not hinge on the fleeting fre…

VivoPower International’s evolving “digital asset treasury” blueprint took center stage in New York this week as Adam Traidman, the company’s Chairman of the Board of Advisors and a former Ripple board member, sketched out what he called a “DAT 2.0” or “anti-DAT” playbook to accumulate XRP at a steep discount while simultaneously extracting on-chain yield. Speaking at the XRP Meetup NYC in the run-up to Ripple’s Swell conference—and in remarks shared via a clip by Crypto Eri (@sentosumosaba) on X—Traidman argued that the publicly listed “digital asset treasury companies” which ran hot earlier this year are now trading like the investment-trust boom-and-bust of the early …

Canadian miner Vizsla Silver (TSX, NYSE: VZLA) hired Australia’s Macquarie Bank as lead arranger of a $220 million maximum financing package for the construction and development of the Panuco silver-gold project in Mexico. Macquarie is to act as sole underwriter of the project finance facility, keeping a 70% interest and syndicating the rest, according to a Vizsla statement released Friday. Macquarie will be responsible for coordinating the syndication process and ongoing project monitoring. Combined with about $200 million of cash on the company’s balance sheet following an equity financing in June, “Vizsla is well positioned to fully fund the $224 million capex …

Canadian miner Vizsla Silver (TSX, NYSE: VZLA) is raising about $100 million to advance the exploration, drilling and development of its flagship Panuco project in western Mexico. The stock plunged. A group of underwriters has agreed to purchase about 33.3 million common shares at $3 apiece via a bought deal, Vizsla said Monday in a statement. An over-allotment option gives the group the option to buy 15% more stock, which would boost gross proceeds to about $115 million if it was exercised in full. The offering is expected to close on or about Thursday. Canaccord Genuity is the sole bookrunner. Vancouver-based Vizsla is conducting a 10,000-metre drill program…

Vizsla Silver (TSX, NYSE: VZLA) said a new study shows the company would need less than a year to recoup its investment if it proceeds with the flagship Panuco silver-gold project in Mexico. Based on a 5% discount rate, Panuco now has an after-tax net present value of $1.8 billion, an internal rate of return of 111% and a payback period of seven months, Vancouver-based Vizsla said Wednesday in a statement, citing the conclusions of a new feasibility study. The financial metrics, which assume $3,100-per-oz. gold and $35.50-per-oz. silver, exceed those from July 2024’s preliminary economic assessment. Wednesday’s study “represents a key inflection point for the comp…

Ethereum’s most recent price rally has eroded Bitcoin’s dominance, representing one of the steeper movements in the crypto space in recent months. Though both assets have registered growth, US President Donald Trump’s long-time crypto skeptic, Peter Schiff, made it plain which one he would retain in case he were forced — and it isn’t Ethereum. ETH Pushes Past $4,000 Amid Strong Activity Ethereum moved past $4,000 in recent trading sessions, reaching a high for 2025. Whale transactions and heavier derivatives trading have been the fuel to this price action, according to reports. Volumes and open interest have also gone up, indicating healthy speculative demand. ETH eve…

Another day where markets hang on to a positive sentiment following a similar picture from yesterday - risk-assets are in the green and safe-havens are lagging on the day. The US dollar as recently shines on optimist flows from markets, though as the DXY is still trading below the 100.00 level. The Greenback is leading today's forex action. On the other hand, the Yen is not showing such a rosy picture. Comments from the Minister of Finance Katsunobu Kato about reducing the issuance on long-end bonds made Japanese yields go down and the Yen got dragged with it. How do yields moving down influence the Yen? For a quick-to-understand explanation, lon…
