The global iron ore market is in the midst of a major pricing shift, moving away from the long-standing 62% Fe benchmark toward a new 61% Fe specification. The change, driven by a gradual decline in ore grades and higher impurity levels, is reshaping both the physical and financial sides of the industry and raising big questions about how iron ore is valued. Why the change matters For decades, the 62% Fe grade served as the anchor for global pricing, with Pilbara Blend Fines (PBF) acting as the bellwether. But as mined grades have steadily dropped, the 62% benchmark no longer matches what is actually traded. The move to a 61% Fe baseline, effective from 2026, …

Allegiant Gold (TSXV: AUAU) has once again increased the size of its recently arranged private placement to fund the company’s exploration plans in Nevada. In a press release Friday, the gold junior said it will now issue up to 21 million units at C$0.50 each. Each unit comprises one common share and one-half of a warrant that is exercisable at C$0.70 per share for 18 months.

The crypto market remains under pressure as Bitcoin slipped below $115,000, testing key support levels and dragging sentiment lower. Ethereum also fell under $4,200, fueling a wave of volatility that led to more than $400 million in liquidations over the past 24 hours. As some believe Bitcoin may revisit $112K, others see this as a chance to accumulate specific altcoins like Chainlink (LINK). Whale 0x4EBD recently withdrew another 249,808 LINK ($6M) from Binance about 35 minutes ago, bringing his total withdrawals to 1,293,757 LINK ($31.15M) over the past four days making LINK one of the best of the altcoins to buy right now.

The crypto market slid into the week in a holding pattern, with price action grinding sideways and positioning increasingly tethered to one catalyst: Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s remarks at the Jackson Hole Economic Policy Symposium. “The only big, big event is going to be this,” said analyst Josh Olszewicz in his August 18 Macro Monday stream. “Everybody’s going to be watching this, talking about this, analyzing this… What Jay says [on Friday]” will likely swing rate expectations and risk sentiment. The symposium runs August 21–23, 2025 in Wyoming, under the theme “Labor Markets in Transition: Demographics, Productivity, and Macroeconomic Policy,” a backdrop alm…

In a market update on August 19 titled “Key Altcoins To Watch Right Now,” crypto analyst Cryptoinsightuk argues that conditions are improving for a fresh leg higher in altcoins as Bitcoin dominance shows signs of easing. “The last few days and in the newsletter I’ve discussed my long-term thesis around Bitcoin dominance dropping [and] that altcoins are going to take the next leg up,” he said, adding that, at current levels across majors, “risk–reward for long positions is very good here.” He anchors the view in a recurring intraday structure he says is visible across Bitcoin and multiple large caps: a range forms, the lows are swept, the highs are swept, price returns to…

I don’t like the name Jackson Hole. It makes me feel like I’m forced to watch important events going on in a man’s … well, you know. It all sounds so ominous! More importantly, the Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Fed meeting is what started the great bear market of 2020, when Powell announced rate hikes, and now that might happen again. Last week, U.S. producer inflation (PPI) came out super high, rising another percentage point, which now puts the three-rate cut scenario by the end of the year in question. All risk assets are falling with BTC ▼-0.28% down 6.6% on the week and tech stocks like Palantir shaving off 20% and dragging the entire tech sector down. Here’s what else y…

Ethereum came close to breaking its all-time high this week, and the fallout was brutal for anyone betting against it. Around 259 million dollars in short positions were liquidated, along with another 80 million in long positions. That adds up to more than 340 million dollars in crypto liquidations in just 24 hours. Ethereum alone made up more than half of that total. Fed Hint Lights Up Crypto Markets The rally wasn’t random. It followed comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell suggesting that interest rate cuts could be on the horizon. Traders didn’t wait around. Ethereum surged almost 15 percent on the news and briefly climbed above 4,842 dollars. That’s within touching d…

ETH ▼-2.56%, SOL ▼-3.49%, and Hyperliquid have shown steady gains this week amid a market dip with crypto fear and greed index hitting neutral. Ethereum climbed 3% over seven days to $4,400 from $4,300, hitting an all-time high of $4,946 before dropping to today’s level. The Ethereum ATH is likely driven by spot ETF inflows that reached $3.75 billion. (Source – X, Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index) Solana, on the other hand, rose 3.4% to $187, with trading volume hitting $14 billion, which saw it go as high as $198. Hyperliquid’s HYPE edged up 3.9% to $44.83, and its DEX is generating $90 million in fees just from last month alone. However, with the crypto fear and greed …

In a continued support for crypto, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) have jointly confirmed that registered exchanges can now facilitate spot crypto trading under existing law. The joint statement, released Tuesday, clarifies that platforms such as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), Nasdaq, CBOE, and CME face no legal barriers to listing select digital asset products. SEC Chair Paul Atkins hailed the move as a turning point, emphasizing that “market participants should have the freedom to choose where they trade spot crypto assets.” CFTC Acting Chair Caroline Pham echoed his sentiment, noting that the era…

Solana price analysis: Can bulls break above recent highs of $185? Year-to-date, 2025 has proven to be an interesting time for the crypto market, with Solana being no exception. Enjoying a period of bullish momentum bookmarked by Trump’s win in the election, seen as the pro-crypto candidate of choice, Solana not only rose to an all-time high just shy of $300 but overtook Binance Coin (BNB) to become the fifth-largest coin by market capitalization globally. close …

The Bitcoin price has turned bearish after hitting a new all-time high above $111,000 back in May. This turn in the tide was expected as the rally put Bitcoin holders in massive profit, showing a risk of profit-taking that could tank the price. So far, the price is already down by 6% % from its all-time high and trending at $104,000 at the time of this writing. But as bears take control, it is likely that the decline is far from over, and the cryptocurrency could fall below 6-figures again. The Pathology Of The Bitcoin All-Time High A pseudonymous analyst who goes by Youriverse on the TradingView website has explained the movement of the Bitcoin price over the past few w…

Bitcoin’s current price action is marked by a consolidation around the $105,500 price level. Although it reached an intraday high of $106,807, it has since returned to $105,500, and its dominance also witnessed a minor fall. Notably, Bitcoin’s dominance metric, the BTC.D, which measures its share of the total crypto market capitalization, has stalled around the 64% level in recent weeks. This stalling behavior drew attention from a certified market analyst, especially in light of many altcoins struggling to gain momentum in an environment dominated by Bitcoin’s inflow.

Overview: The dollar is mostly softer today in narrow trading ranges, though it is firmer against the yen and Swiss franc. The weakness of US data (ADP, ISM services, and anecdotal Beige Book) lifted the market confidence of at least two Fed cuts this year. Most emerging market currencies are also trading higher against the dollar today. Still, overall, the foreign exchange market is relatively calm, and ranges are mostly narrow. The outcome of ECB meeting today (rate cut and reductions in this year's growth and inflation forecasts are likely) and tomorrow's US employment report are awaited. Equities are generally firmer. Among the large markets in the Asia Pacific regi…

Africa-focused Petra Diamonds (LON: PDL) has scrapped regular diamond tenders in favour of opportunistic sales as the market for rough stones continues to slump. The miner reported $53 million in sales from its fifth and sixth tenders of the year, covering production from its two South African mines. Petra will now report sales on a quarterly basis instead of following a fixed tender schedule. “In response to fluctuations in diamond prices and demand, the company no longer follows regular tender cycles and may postpone portions of tenders or sell goods as run-of-mine,” it said. The strategic pivot mirrors De Beers’ reported off-market sales of discounted diamo…

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has made headlines by amassing a staggering $70 billion in total assets, achieving this milestone faster than any other exchange-traded fund (ETF) in history. This remarkable feat occurred just 341 days after its launch, according to Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas, who noted that IBIT reached this figure five times quicker than the previous record holder, State Street’s GLD gold ETF, which took nearly 1,700 days. BlackRock’s IBIT Outshines Competitors As the most popular of the twelve Bitcoin ETFs currently available, IBIT stands out significantly in the market.

Quant (QNT) crypto is sitting pretty at slightly above $120. The big question, though, is whether it will smash past $200 by month’s end. At $122, QNT crypto has a ways to go—just another 63% leap to hit $200. As hefty as it sounds to ask for it in under three weeks, it has never climbed to above $400, so big moves aren’t out of the question, but the timing is tight for this sprint. (QNTUSD) DISCOVER: Next 1000X Crypto: 10+ Crypto Tokens That Can Hit 1000x in 2025 Will QNT Crypto Break $200 by June’s End? QNT has shown consistent crypto growth, with an over 60% rise this past 12 months, from a $75 low to the current $120 range. Its all-time high of $427.42 shows pot…

DeFi Development Corp. hit a major roadblock this week when the US Securities and Exchange Commission blocked its $1 billion registration filing. The move came after regulators found that the company’s Form S-3 lacked a key internal controls report tied to its 10-K. As a result, DeFi Development—formerly known as Janover—pulled the filing and said it will fix the paperwork before trying again. Missing Controls Report According to the SEC, the registration was ineligible because it did not include the required internal controls over financial reporting. That report is a must for any firm raising capital through public offerings. Without it, the commission won’t even cons…

After months of posturing, standoffs, and closed-door edits, the Senate crypto bill passed, AKA the GENIUS Act. It is the first real attempt at regulatory framework targeting stablecoins. The final vote came in at 68 to 30, a rare show of bipartisan muscle in a chamber better known lately for doing nothing. For crypto, it’s a clear signal: the grown-ups are finally paying attention. Some on crypto Twitter believe this effectively makes using Chainlink’s proof of reserve a law.

Dogecoin’s price is back at a crucial line. It’s testing the $0.168 area for a second time since mid‑April. A clear break could send the meme coin spinning lower. Bulls and bears are watching every tick. Key Support Under Scrutiny According to crypto expert Ali Charts, Dogecoin fell roughly 30% from its mid‑May high. That slide brought it down to the same $0.168 mark that held as support last April. If prices drop below that level on a weekly close, there are hardly any bids to slow the fall. Below $0.168 lies what traders call a “gap area,” where past buying activity was sparse. That could open the door to steeper losses and fast moves. Cup And Handle Pattern Based o…

Stablecoin backing is under fresh fire after outspoken economist and gold supporter Peter Schiff took aim at tokens tied to US dollar reserves. He argues that relying on a fiat currency he views as shaky makes little sense when a more stable asset exists. His comments have reignited a long‑running debate about what should sit behind digital coins that promise a steady peg. Schiff Questions Fiat Backing According to Schiff, it makes no sense to support a token pegged to a currency that can be inflated away. “I get Bitcoin, but not US dollar stablecoins,” he wrote in a social media post. He pointed out that fiat money can be printed in large amounts, while gold has a fi…

Malian tax officials have unlocked Barrick Gold’s (NYSE: GOLD) Bamako headquarters, nearly two months after sealing the doors over an alleged multimillion-dollar tax shortfall, Reuters reported on Monday. The office will now be run by a court-appointed administrator while the Canadian miner and Mali’s junta government continue wrangling over the country’s 2023 mining code. Former health minister Soumana Makadji was named provisional administrator of the complex last week. Barrick says it will appeal both his appointment and the wider court order that put the flagship Loulo-Gounkoto gold complex under state control. Barrick’s New York-listed shares rose 2% …

There have been many comparisons between Kaspa and Bitcoin on the internet lately. Is it real or just clout? The truth is that as a PoW network, Kaspa has better security than the PoS model and can be mined with moderate tech, which can provide greater decentralisation than Bitcoin. The GHOSTDAG protocol provides faster speed, similar to Visa’s transaction time. Institutional interest is growing; Marathon Digital Holdings (a Bitcoin miner) mined $16 million worth of Kaspa last year. As much as technical analysis for Kaspa, Sarosh noted a great indicator for a potential move up – a break of June’s downtrend channel. Will momentum sustain, and will price move further …
