Ripple is making a serious move into traditional finance. The company behind XRP has applied for a national banking charter in the United States, aiming to bring its RLUSD stablecoin under direct federal oversight. This isn’t just about checking boxes. It’s a strategic attempt to give RLUSD a stronger foundation and open the door to a deeper role in the financial system. If approved, the Ripple banking license would allow the company to hold RLUSD reserves directly with the Federal Reserve. Ripple’s CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, confirmed the application publicly, pointing out that RLUSD already operates under New York’s financial regulators. Getting a national charter through…

Dogecoin’s price action caught traders’ attention this week. After dipping toward the $0.13–$0.15 demand zone, the meme‑coin shot higher, and a surge in derivatives data suggests many expect more gains. Trader Interest Climbs Around $0.19 Resistance According to market data, Open Interest jumped by 16% to reach over $2 billion. Options volume exploded by 400%. That kind of rise often points to big bets on upward swings. Right now, many eyes are on the $0.20 resistance level. If DOGE can close a daily candle above that line, it may clear the way toward $0.27. Dogecoin’s technical setup is drawing fresh looks from chart watchers. The Stochastic RSI crossed above 80, wh…

Chilean President Gabriel Boric said Wednesday his government is still waiting for formal communication from Washington on proposed US tariffs targeting copper, following President Donald Trump’s announcement that he intends to impose a 50% levy on imports of the metal. “We are waiting for the official communication from the United States government regarding what the policy will be—whether or not it includes copper cathodes, what the limits are, and whether this will actually be implemented or not,” Boric told reporters, according to local media site Emol. His comments came after state-owned Codelco, the world’s largest copper producer, said it was in a “wait-and…

Altcoins Are Witnessing A Fast Drop In Correlation To Bitcoin In a new post on X, analytics firm Alphractal has discussed how the Correlation between Bitcoin and the altcoins has changed recently. The Correlation is an indicator that keeps track of how tied together the prices of any two assets are. The metric can take on both positive and negative values. In both cases, some relationship exists between the assets, but the relative movement in their prices is different. When the indicator has a positive value, it means one asset is reacting…

Gem Diamonds (LON: GEMD) has become the latest casualty in a deepening crisis engulfing the global diamond industry, announcing sweeping cost-cutting measures as the market buckles under falling prices and the growing popularity of lab-grown alternatives.

The British pound has posted losses for a second straight day. In the European session, GBP/USD is trading at 1.3446, down 0.43% on the day. UK retail sales posts 0.9% gainThe UK wrapped up the week with the June retail sales report. The gain of 0.9% m/m was a strong rebound from the 2.8% drop in May but missed the market estimate of 1.2%. The driver of the positive release was an increase in food and motor fuel. Yearly, retail sales rose 1.7% following a 1.1% decline in May and just shy of the market estimate of 1.8%. Retail sales recorded growth across all main sectors, boosted by the unseasonably June weather. Will BoE lower rates in August? The Bank of England finds i…

Tyler Winklevoss says JPMorgan hit pause on Gemini’s attempt to restore banking access after he publicly criticized the bank. According to him, the decision came shortly after he posted a tweet calling out major banks for fighting against open banking reforms. He believes the timing wasn’t a coincidence. A Tweet That Changed Everything On July 19, Winklevoss accused the banking industry of trying to gut the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s Open Banking Rule. He argued that banks were attempting to block consumers from sharing their own data through platforms like Plaid. Shortly after airing his views, Gemini’s re-onboarding talks with JPMorgan reportedly stalle…

The Trump administration’s alleged bid to get rid of greenhouse gas emissions standards might see more impact on pollution than platinum after its price has jumped almost 50% this year, industry analysts say. The EPA plans to drop all greenhouse gas (GHG) emission standards for light, medium and heavy-duty vehicles and engines in the near future, according to a draft proposal, Reuters reported on Thursday. Platinum’s use in auto’s pollution-filtering catalytic converters represents about 30% of global demand, and palladium represents about 80%. But it could be premature to conclude the EPA’s changes will remove the need for platinum group metals (PGM)-based device…

Crypto analyst Lourenço has predicted that the Ethereum price could rally to $9,000 in this market cycle. This comes as ETH eyes a breakout against its BTC pair, which could spark a massive run for the crypto and other altcoins. Ethereum Price Eyes Rally To $9,000 This Cycle In an X post, Lourenço opined that the Ethereum price could rally to as high as $9,000 at some point in this market cycle. This came as he analyzed the weekly ETH chart. The analyst noted that, depending on how the trend on the upper side of the wedge is drawn, the altcoin may have already broken it with hard closes above. Lourenço declared that the $4,000 level is an important one and that once …

After the most transformational year in the company’s history, Australia’s PLS (ASX: PLS) is ready for a recovery in the lithium price. “The stage is set,” PLS managing director Dale Henderson declared during a site visit to the company’s flagship Pilgangoora operation in Western Australia’s Pilbara region on Friday. Spodumene concentrate prices have gyrated wildly in recent weeks, bottoming at around $600 per tonne in early July before rising back towards $800/t. Henderson said the recent spike in pricing appeared to be driven by a regulatory crackdown on lithium mines in China. While current price moves are related to supply, he pointed to continued stro…

Рынок биткоина всегда отличался цикличностью: за длительными периодами роста цен часто следовали периоды снижения. Однако за последние несколько недель различные сегменты криптосообщества объявили теорию циклов BTC “мертвой” и устаревшей. В различных анализах циклической теории аналитики часто связывают недавние изменения в динамике рынка с новой эрой институционального участия через биржевые инвестиционные фонды (ETF). Согласно последней оценке новой структуры рынка, новые институциональные игроки также могут сыграть свою роль в наступлении следующего “медвежьего” рынка. Почему появление новых корпораций может привести к следующему “медвежьему” рынку В новом посте в со…

The pound had seen a huge uptrend in 2025, with a 13.57% increase from 1.21, as the year commenced, to its recent top at 1.3790. July changed Forex markets consequently with the Dollar Index retaking some of what it had lost through the first half – After the injurious US Non-Farm Payrolls report from last Friday, the Greenback saw some of its momentary strength evaporate and which allowed the GBP to take a breather from strong selling flows.

Coinbase has rolled out a new feature called Embedded Wallets, aimed at developers who want to bring crypto functionality directly into their apps. It’s part of the Coinbase Developer Platform and is currently in beta. The idea is simple.

Focused on Stablecoin Use This tool is clearly designed with stablecoins in mind. The wallet supports USDC by default and includes rewards for holding it. That makes it easier for apps to handle things like payouts, tipping, or digital cash-style payments without dealing with cryp…

The Bitcoin price has been on an interesting trajectory over the past few weeks, setting new all-time highs along the way. More recently, the premier cryptocurrency surged to a new all-time high above the $124,100 mark. The Bitcoin price has since succumbed to significant bearish pressure, hovering around the $118,000 region for most of the weekend. A prominent crypto trader on the social media platform X has identified levels that could be pivotal to the coin’s future trajectory. $117,500 And $114,500 Are Next Support Levels: Glassnode Data In a recent post on the X platform, crypto analyst Ali Martinez pinpointed two support levels that could prove crucial to the Bitc…

Bitcoin looks set for a pause. Prices climbed to a fresh high, and now the market is showing signs of short-term cooling as some investors lock in profits. Price Pullback And Recent Rally Bitcoin was trading at $115,550 when this report was written, about 6% shy of its all-time high of $124,201 reached on Wednesday. The top crypto asset was up roughly 10% in the nine days leading up to that peak. That quick run-up helped push prices higher, but it also left some traders looking for a breather. Analysts say the recent rally quickly fizzled out without fresh macro drivers to keep it going. MVRV Signals Some Caution According to Santiment, the Market Value to Realize…

Bitcoin is under pressure after struggling for several days to hold above the $120,000 mark, and now the $115,000 level has become the key battleground. The latest price action shows increased volatility as momentum shifts toward the bears, raising concerns about whether BTC can sustain its consolidation range or risk breaking lower. Despite reaching new all-time highs earlier this month, Bitcoin’s inability to maintain strength above resistance zones has fueled speculation of a possible deeper correction. Traders are closely watching whether this consolidation phase is a healthy reset or the beginning of a sharper downturn. Adding to this uncertainty, CryptoQuant anal…

Senate Banking Committee Chair Tim Scott says he expects between 12 and 18 Senate Democrats to cross party lines and support a new crypto market structure bill. That’s a surprising figure, especially given the usual partisan gridlock around financial regulation. Individual Outreach to Build Bipartisan Consensus Scott has been speaking directly with Democratic Senators, including some who aren’t on the Banking Committee, to drum up early support. He’s aiming to build momentum before the bill officially lands in the Senate this September. House Momentum and Legislative Foundations This isn’t coming out of nowhere.

Bitcoin’s price action this month has left traders watching closely as big players double down on bullish calls. According to VanEck’s research, the investment firm has reaffirmed a $180,000 year-end target even after Bitcoin slid from a recent high, a sign that some institutional buyers are not backing away despite a pullback. Institutional Buying Remains Heavy Reports have disclosed heavy accumulation in July. Exchange-traded products bought 54,000 BTC while Digital Asset Treasuries added 72,000 BTC, giving clear evidence that large holders continue to pile in. VanEck first laid out its bullish view in November 2024 when Bitcoin traded around $88,000. At the same tim…

Two First Nations groups have partnered with a trucking company to buy a bulk terminal port near British Columbia’s border with Alaska serving Newmont’s (TSX: NGT; NYSE: NEM) Brucejack and Red Chris mines that produce gold, silver and copper.

(TNDC), together with Arrow Transportation Systems, will acquire the Stewart Bulk Terminal, a key shipping hub on the Portland Canal for mines in the province’s Golden Triangle and beyond, they said Monday. No cost was given but the BC government funded C$5 million towards the deal that’s expected to close within months. “Together, we are making history,” Kerry Carl…

Log in to today's North American session Market wrap for August 26 Markets are still looking for more data: as it could have been expected after the bout of volatility from last Friday, in the middle of a typical, low-volatility and low-volume end-August trading (most of the biggest players take their vacations around now). Particularly after the crazy upside in risk-assets, followed by a lack of more continuation, participants might be leaving markets on pause at least until Thursday. In terms of politics, FED's Lisa Cook, appointed by President Biden in 2022, got fired yesterday evening with the FED Spokesperson appearing to explain their side of things – tldr; nothi…
