NexGen Energy (TSX, NYSE: NXE) (ASX: NXG) announced Wednesday it has secured a new offtake contract with a major US-based utility for the delivery of 1 million lb. of uranium per year over a five-year period. Shares of the company rose. This agreement follows the first sales contracts announced in December 2024 for the supply of 5 million lb. of uranium to multiple US nuclear utility companies. The new contract, says NexGen, would double its existing contracted volumes to a total of 10 million. It includes market-related pricing mechanisms that provide “significant leverage” to future prices at time of delivery. The deal, it adds, reflects the “significant materiality” of its Rook I project in the future supply of uranium, at a time when sovereign and technical risk surrounding current production sources is at unprecedented levels worldwide. With the new offtake deal, analysts at Raymond James have maintained their “Outperform” rating for the stock with a target price of C$12, citing that NexGen is well-financed in the near-term to continue to develop Arrow and the firm’s positive view on uranium. Shares of NexGen rose 3.1% to C$9.86 apiece by 1:30 p.m. ET in Toronto, for a market capitalization of C$5.5 billion ($4 billion). Its highest in the past 52 weeks was C$12.51. Major uranium asset Rook I — located within the uranium-rich Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan — represents Canada’s largest development-stage uranium project. The proposed underground mine and mill, anchored by the high-grade Arrow deposit, is currently at the final stage of approval. Hearings with the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission for the final greenlight are set for later this year and early 2026. Once in production, Rook I is expected to produce nearly 29 million lb. of uranium oxide (U3O8) per year over the first half of its approximate 10.7-year life, according to a feasibility study published in 2021. The Arrow deposit alone has nearly 4.6 million tonnes of measured and indicated resource grading 2.37% U3O8, containing 240 million lb. of U3O8. According to NexGen, its deposit currently has 229.6 million lb. of uncontracted reserves to be sold optimally in the future.

A CEO thinks XRP is one of the most misunderstood tokens out there. Jake Claver, chief executive of Digital Ascension Group, marked his YouTube channel hitting 100,000 subscribers by talking about what might push XRP’s price higher. Institutional Bets On XRP Backing According to Claver, Digital Wealth Partners now holds over $200 million worth of XRP. That stake shows how much confidence they have in the token’s potential. During a livestream, he pointed to the altcoin’s future role in settling tokenized assets. He believes that as more institutions adopt blockchain and tokenization, XRP could become a key link in global finance. The company isn’t only betting on price swings. It offers loans backed by crypto like BTC and XRP. Loan-to-value ratios go as high as 80% and rates sit between 13% and 16%. Claver said upcoming partnerships could cut those rates further. Reports have disclosed that the fund works alongside clients’ trusted advisers, blending traditional wealth services with crypto options. Claver talked about how his firm helps clients who manage IRAs and 401Ks. He said Digital Wealth Partners acts as an extension of existing advisory teams rather than replacing them. That mix of legacy finance and digital assets is meant to guide people through both sides. For Claver, XRP remains at the center of that plan because its design fits institutional transactions. The Email Analogy For Payments Claver compared XRP’s role to early email systems. Back then, users needed the same provider to send and receive mail. Today, thanks to standard protocols, any email can reach any inbox, and mostly for free. He thinks XRP could do something similar for digital payments, bridging different apps and banking systems across borders. He said real-world use like that will force a fresh look at XRP’s value once big players catch on. Of course, getting major banks to agree on the same standard and meeting strict KYC and anti-money laundering rules are two hurdles that can’t be ignored. XRP Price Trajectory Based on analysis, the biggest price trigger for XRP may come in mid-August 2025, when the US Securities and Exchange Commission is expected to clarify the altcoin’s status. A positive outcome could spark a rally. A delay or mixed guidance might send prices down. Claver isn’t alone in watching this calendar. Paul Howard, Director at Wincent, said US rate changes possibly arriving in September could shift market sentiment. Cheap money would hunt for yield, and tokens with solid use cases could see supply squeeze and sharp gains. Right now, risk-on vibes across crypto are steering flows into majors like BTC and ETH before altcoins get a look. Looking ahead, XRP’s performance will hinge on real adoption, clear rules and the bigger economic picture. If Claver’s vision plays out, XRP could shape next-gen payment rails. If regulatory delays or compliance snags dominate, investors may need to hedge or dollar-cost-average their positions. Either way, reports show that XRP’s path won’t be a straight line.

Century Lithium’s (TSXV: LCE) estimated $3.1 billion Angel Island project in Nevada has been given transparency status by the US Federal Permitting Council on its fast-track approval list. The feasibility-stage Angel Island, formerly known as Clayton Valley, is among the top tier claystone lithium development projects in the US by reserves and economics. It’s comparable to other claystone lithium projects in Nevada, such as Lithium Americas’ (TSX, NYSE: LAC) Thacker Pass project, about 320 km northwest of Angel Island. “The addition of Angel Island to the Federal Permitting Dashboard is a meaningful step and we are thankful for the Permitting Council’s selection,” Century Lithium CEO Bill Willoughby said Wednesday. “Projects on the Federal Permitting Dashboard with transparency status receive the visibility that is at the core of FAST-41, delivering an efficient and accountable process through permitting.” Latest in Nevada Angel Island is the latest project in Nevada to be given FAST-41 transparency status after American Battery Technology’s (Nasdaq: ABAT) Tonopah Flats lithium project was granted that designation in July. A total of 28 critical mineral projects across the US have since March been added to the FAST-41 framework, aimed at streamlining a project’s permitting process. The permitting council, established in 2015 by Title 41 of the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST-41), oversees federal environmental reviews for critical infrastructure projects. Full FAST-41 covered projects receive coordinated project plans and expert support, while transparency projects only gain public visibility on the dashboard without additional FAST-41 benefits. Century Lithium shares fell 0.8% to C$0.28 apiece on Wednesday morning in Toronto, for a market capitalization of C$42.6 million. 287Mt reserves Located near Silver Peak in eastern Nevada, Angel Island hosts 287.65 million tonnes of proven and probable reserves grading 1,149 parts per million lithium for 1.75 million tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE), according to the April 2024 feasibility study. The project has an after-tax net present value of $3.1 billion, an after-tax internal rate of return of 17.1% and a mine life of 40 years. Its first stage production capacity is pegged at 13,000 tonnes LCE per year, at capital costs of $1.5 billion. Expanding that capacity to 28,000 tonnes per year would cost another $651 million. The company plans to use a unique chloride leaching process combined with direct lithium extraction to remove lithium from the claystone.

SSR Mining (NASDAQ, TSX: SSRM) soared to its highest in nearly two years on Wednesday after reporting second-quarter 2025 results that well exceeded analyst expectations. During the three-month period, the Colorado-based miner saw its gold-equivalent production rise to 120,191 oz., nearly double the 76,102 oz. from the same quarter last year. Its average realized gold price was $3,336/oz., about 42% higher than in 2024. All-in sustaining costs (AISC) also improved, with a 2% decrease at $2,068/oz., while cash costs rose slightly to $1,396/oz. The higher output and gold prices allowed SSR to record a near tenfold increase in net income attributable to shareholders, at $90 million versus $9.7 million. Earnings per share (EPS) attributable to shareholders also swelled to $0.54, nearly 14 times higher than Q2 2024. First quarter of CC&V A major driver of the strong earnings, according to the company, was the integration of the Cripple Creek & Victor (CC&V) gold mine, which it acquired from Newmont (NYSE: NEM, TSX: NGT) late last year. The mine, also located in Colorado, accounted for nearly half of the company’s gold production during its first full quarter under SSR’s portfolio. “CC&V delivered well against expectations in its first full quarter in our portfolio, and the mine has now generated approximately $85 million in asset-level free cash flow in the four months since its acquisition, a remarkable outcome,” Rod Antal, executive chairman of SSR, stated in Wednesday’s quarterly results release. By noon ET, SSR Mining’s TSX-listed shares had jumped 16.2% to C$20.81 apiece, with a market capitalization of C$4.2 billion ($3.1 billion). Earlier, it had reached as high as C$21 a share, the highest since September 2023. Smashed expectations BMO Capital Markets, which recently resumed coverage on SSR with a “Market Perform” rating and set a price target of $13.50, said the Q2 2025 financials were “well ahead of its expectations.” Specifically, the EPS of $0.54 more than doubled the firm’s consensus estimates of $0.20/0.23. In addition, the gold-equivalent production was 11% above expectations, driven by a strong quarter from CC&V as well as the Puna silver mine in Argentina, where the company expects to see higher output than previously forecasted starting in 2026 while it looks to extend the mine life beyond 2028. Other metrics, such as AISC and free cash flow, also surpassed BMO’s expectations by significant margins. According to BMO, SSR’s acquisition of CC&V, on top of its existing Marigold mine in Nevada, positions it as the third-largest gold producer in the United States. Meanwhile, in Turkey, the company is continuing to work with authorities to advance the restart of its Çöpler mine, which was shut down in February 2024 following a collapse of the heap leach pad that resulted in the death of nine miners and released cyanide-laced ore into the valley.

Succinct, a decentralized prover network revolutionizing zero-knowledge (ZK) infrastructure, has officially launched its mainnet and native token, PROVE. The launch, which took place on August 5, 2025, marks a major milestone in the evolution of cryptographic verifiability and scalability in the Web3 ecosystem. Following the mainnet debut, the PROVE token was listed on Bitget, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange. Within 24 hours, the token surged by over 50%, reaching a trading price of $1.50 and generating over $715 million in 24-hour volume. Bitget’s Succinct (PROVE) Listing Fuels Market Momentum Bitget added PROVE to its Innovation Zone, opening spot trading for the PROVE/USDT pair on August 5, 2025. To incentivize adoption, the exchange launched a CandyBomb campaign featuring 66,666 PROVE in total rewards for traders and depositors. This strategic listing allows users to engage with PROVE through both trading and staking activities. The token will also be listed on Binance, where it carries a Seed Tag and supports multiple trading pairs, further increasing its visibility and liquidity. Succinct (PROVE) is trading near $1.2 and analysts note signs of consolidation ahead of a possible surge. Powering the Future of ZK Infrastructure The PROVE token is the backbone of the Succinct Prover Network, a decentralized, two-sided marketplace where developers request ZK proofs and independent provers compete to fulfill them. Unlike traditional systems that require complex and costly infrastructure, Succinct simplifies the integration of ZK proofs via a general-purpose zkVM that supports languages like Rust. Currently, the network supports 35+ protocols, has processed over 5 million proofs, and secures more than $4 billion in value. Notable partners include Polygon, Mantle, Lido, and Celestia. Looking Ahead Succinct’s approach to verifiable computation is drawing comparisons to foundational internet protocols, with CTO John Guibas noting, “Our goal was to make proving infrastructure accessible at internet scale.” With strong developer traction, dual exchange listings, and a scalable infrastructure model, Succinct is well-positioned to become a core component of blockchain scalability and privacy. As zero-knowledge proofs move toward mainstream adoption, the PROVE token and its underlying network could be a notable mention in shaping the next era of dApps.

The euro is showing some strength on Wednesday. In the North American session, EUR/USD is trading at 1.1641, up 0.57% on the day. Eurozone retail sales up, German factory orders decline Eurozone data was a mixed bag today. Eurozone retail sales bounced back in June, rising 0.3% m/m after the May figure was revised upwards to -0.3% from an initial -0.7%. This missed the market estimate of 0.4%. Annualized, retail sales gained 3.1%, up from a revised 1.9% but shy of the market estimate of 2.6%. This was the highest level since Sep. 2024. The positive retail sales are critical for the eurozone economy, as global trade tensions remain high and the strong euro will weigh on exports. German factory orders declined 1.0% in June after a downwardly revised May figure of -0.8%. This missed the market estimate of a 0.1% gain. What can we expect from Christine Lagarde & Co.? The European Central Bank received an encouraging sign as the US and EU signed a trade agreement which will remove the uncertainty over tariffs between the two sides. The ECB meets next on Sep. 11 and a rate cut is currently a close call. The central bank is in a good place and isn't feeling pressure to cut rates. The deposit rate is at 2%, headline inflation is at 2%, right at the ECB's target. Fed expected to cut rates in September The Federal Reserve has been in a prolonged wait-and-see stance, but that is slated to end at the September rate meeting. The markets have priced in a quarter-rate cut at 93%, according to the CME's FedWatch. The weak employment report on Friday has raised the likelihood of a rate cut as the US labor market is showing wider cracks than had been expected.

The European Union (EU) has taken yet another step towards a fully regulated crypto landscape. The European Banking Authority (EBA), the EU’s top banking regulator, has released a pivotal news draft framework outlining how banks must manage exposure to cryptoassets. With this, the EBA has also set stricter capital requirements for banks holding digital assets. But, EBA’s new draft – that falls under Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR) – provides a regulatory green light for banks that were hesitant to enter the crypto market due to uncertainty. On 5 August 2025, the EBA published its final draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) which specify the technical elements necessary for institutions to calculate and aggregate cryptoasset exposures in relation to the prudential treatment of such exposures. “The RTS address implementation aspects and will ensure harmonisation of the capital requirements on crypto-asset exposures by institutions across the EU,” the EBA said. DISCOVER: Best Meme Coin ICOs to Invest in 2025 New Guidelines Will Help Create Single, Consistent Rules For All Financial Institutions “Institutions have shown increasing interest in getting involved in crypto-assets activities,” the EBA said. According to the EBA, this interest is driven by the potential for new revenue streams and the need to stay competitive. “Institutions are exploring various roles, including acting as custodians of crypto-assets, issuing crypto-assets, and providing related services such as trading and lending on behalf of their clients,” the EBA said. The banks will now be required to implement specific and detailed risk models for their crypto holdings. The EBA’s draft demands rigorous models to account for credit risk, market risk and counterparty credit risk among others.

Furthermore, the new guideline aligns with EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulations (MiCA). In February, the European watchdog released a consultation paper. According to the paper, the key objective of the draft guidelines is to ensure a minimum level of knowledge and competence of staff providing advice and information on crypto-assets or crypto-asset services to clients. Importantly, this step will “enhance investor protection and foster investors’ trust in the crypto-asset markets.” DISCOVER: 9+ Best High-Risk, High-Reward Crypto to Buy in August 2025 Key Takeaways By aligning with the EU’s MiCA regulation and international standards, this move signals a new era of maturity for the digital asset industry.

Importantly, its mission is to ensure the stability of the European financial system. The post European Banking Authority Unveils New Risk Guidelines For Cryptoassets appeared first on 99Bitcoins.

Gold was little changed on Wednesday, following its longest streak of gains since February, as traders booked profits while they continue to monitor global trade developments and the US Federal Reserve’s rate cut outlook. Spot gold slipped 0.1% to $3,378.21 per ounce as of 11 a.m. ET, trading within a narrow range for the day. US gold futures were flat at $3,433.40 an ounce in New York. Click on chart for Live Prices “We view this as a bit of a pullback… a little profit-taking from the recent move higher in the midst of a quieter time on the economic front, and a little lesser need for that safe-haven demand,” David Meger, director of metals trading at High Ridge Futures, commented. Bullion had logged gains for three consecutive sessions, driven by signs of weakness in the US economy, as employment growth data last Friday came in weaker than expected. With the new data, traders now see an over 87% chance of a Fed rate cut next month, up from 63% earlier, as per CME FedWatch. A rate cut would bode well for gold, as the metal pays no interest. The US central bank is also on the cusp of a leadership shuffle. On Tuesday, US President Donald Trump said he will name a Fed board nominee by week’s end and has narrowed options to replace chair Jerome Powell. On the trade front, Trump has added further inflationary pressure by warning that he will increase levies on countries that persist in buying Russian oil, as well as slapping duties on semiconductor and pharmaceutical imports soon. Gold has climbed nearly 30% this year as investors have sought safety amid heightened trade conflicts, geopolitical tensions and eroding trust in dollar-denominated assets.

Oil prices have had volatile swing in the past week, finding strong demand towards the end of July after bouncing at the lows of its $65 to $70 range, even breaking its highs (71.38) before getting hammered from downbeat sentiment post-NFP miss. The commodity is in the Middle of some fundamental headwinds between strong supply (OPEC+ cartel trying to change things up) and Russian oil micmacs. US President Trump is applying strong pressure on countries importing Russian oil to push for a truce in the Eastern European conflicts. India serves as a target for higher tariff menaces as long as they keep buying Russian oil. The action in Oil is still rangebound and despite this morning's rally, the technicals for the black gold are not so hopeful. Let's jump right into a multi-timeframe technical analysis for the commodity.

But as typical for any range, one may assume it holds until proven the contrary. As mentioned in the introduction, the failed break higher is now met with bearish technical and fundamental catalysts, currently down 6.85% from its past week highs. Daily RSI has stopped moving towards bearish territory but such indicators tend to not show much amid rangebound action.

Since, the price for the commodity has retracted by about $1 forming a 4H long-tailed indecision Doji candle. A failure to retest the highs of the range may point to more bearish action looking forward, but tracking how countries react to the Trump menaces may provide a fundamental boost (If not buying Russian Oil, supply gets squeezed and may point to higher prices).

Ethereum is trading below the $3,700 level after days of heightened volatility and mounting uncertainty. The recent price action reflects a clear struggle by bulls to defend key demand zones, as bearish momentum continues to dominate short-term trends. Despite multiple rebound attempts, Ethereum has been unable to reclaim crucial resistance levels, raising concerns of a potential deeper correction in the near term. However, strong fundamentals such as increasing institutional adoption, network growth, and broader market developments continue to support the bullish thesis for Ethereum over the coming months. These structural tailwinds suggest that the current weakness may be part of a healthy consolidation phase before the next major upward move. Top analyst Maartunn shared key insights revealing that the Ethereum Net Taker Volume (Daily) has turned sharply negative, signaling a growing dominance of sell-side pressure. This metric quantifies the difference between market buy and sell orders, providing a clear view of the current sentiment among active traders. Ethereum Net Taker Volume Signals Bearish Dominance Top analyst Maartunn shared critical insights regarding Ethereum’s current market dynamics, emphasizing that Net Taker Volume for ETH sits at -$418.8 million (Daily). This figure indicates that taker sellers have offloaded approximately 115,400 more ETH than buyers were willing to absorb through market orders. Net Taker Volume measures the difference between buying and selling volumes executed at market prices, offering a direct view of the aggressiveness of traders prioritizing immediate execution over optimal pricing. Such a significant negative Net Taker Volume reflects that market participants with a bearish outlook are dominating order books, pushing sell orders aggressively into the market. This behavior signals that sellers are not waiting for better prices, highlighting a serious short-term bearish pressure that can weigh on Ethereum’s price in the immediate term. However, this bearish signal comes after weeks of intense bullish momentum where Ethereum surged aggressively, reaching a local high of $3,940. Given this context, some analysts interpret the current selling pressure as a healthy correction rather than a structural trend reversal. Despite the negative Net Taker Volume, Ethereum’s long-term fundamentals — including institutional accumulation, network growth, and broader adoption trends — remain intact. The current bearish dominance in futures markets serves as a short-term cautionary signal, but it does not yet suggest a breakdown of Ethereum’s overall bullish structure. Analysts will be closely monitoring whether ETH can stabilize and hold key support levels in the coming days. ETH Price Analysis: Consolidation Below Key Resistance Ethereum (ETH) is trading at $3,624.67 after a volatile week marked by sharp pullbacks and failed breakout attempts. The daily chart shows ETH struggling to reclaim the critical resistance level at $3,860.80, which has become a psychological barrier after multiple rejections. Despite bouncing from a local low near $3,360, the bulls are finding it difficult to sustain momentum above the $3,700 zone. The 50-day moving average (MA) at $3,059.75 continues to slope upward, reflecting a longer-term bullish trend, while the 100-day MA at $2,742.48 and the 200-day MA at $2,503.32 act as major support zones. However, in the short term, price action indicates a bearish bias as ETH forms lower highs, suggesting weakening bullish momentum. Trading volumes remain moderate, lacking the surge needed to propel Ethereum above resistance. If ETH fails to reclaim the $3,860 level soon, a retest of the $3,360 support zone could be on the cards. Conversely, a strong daily close above $3,860 would signal a potential continuation of the uptrend. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

Central Bank Gold Buying in 2025: Near-Record Levels and What’s Driving the Surge Central bank gold buying in 2025 remains near record highs, extending the powerful trend that dominated 2023 and 2024. Prices have climbed, headlines are loud, and the reasons go deeper than politics or market mood. If you are wondering whether this is a passing fad or a structural reset of how countries manage reserves, you are asking the right question. Below, we break down the latest numbers, who is buying, why they are doing it, and the risks worth watching—plain English, no hype. 2025 at a Glance: The Scoreboard So Far The first half of 2025 confirms that official sector demand is still a major pillar of the gold market. Quarter by quarter, the pace shifts, but the floor stays firm. Q1 2025: Net central bank purchases of about 244 tonnes—squarely within the recent three-year range. Q2 2025: Net purchases of about 166 tonnes—slower, but survey data still shows intentions to add. Monthly color: January net buying near 18 tonnes; May around 20 tonnes. Investment flows: Global gold ETFs turned positive in Q1 and stayed supportive in Q2, adding fuel to total demand. Put together, 2025 sits in the “high demand” zone set by 2024’s record year. In dollar terms, the value of Q2 demand hit a record—price strength and ETF inflows did the heavy lifting. For official numbers and quarterly context, see the World Gold Council’s Gold Demand Trends. Why 2024 Set the Stage Context matters. In 2024, total gold demand reached roughly 4,974 tonnes, with central banks adding about 1,086 tonnes after revisions. That was the third straight year of +1,000-tonne official purchases, a modern record streak. The 2025 market inherits that momentum, with macro uncertainty and reserve policy shifts still in play. Who’s Buying: Heavyweights and New Leaders A handful of central banks account for much of the action, and their motivations are practical: build resilience, diversify currency exposure, and reduce sanctions risk. Poland: Europe’s Standout Accumulator Poland led official buying in 2024 (roughly 90 tonnes) and continued in 2025, lifting headline reserve totals and turning gold into a core policy signal. The message is simple: anchor the currency and bolster resilience inside the EU framework. China: Steady, Strategic Additions China resumed reported purchases late in 2024 and carried them through 2025, marking nine consecutive months of increases by July. The pace ebbs and flows, but the signal—more non-sanctionable, liquid reserves—stays consistent. India and Central Asia: Persistent, Programmatic Buying India added steadily in 2025 after a sizable increase in its last fiscal year. Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan remained active on a programmatic basis. For many emerging markets, gold is the portable insurance policy that bridges cycles. Why They’re Buying: The Real Motives Strip away the noise and three durable motives remain. Each is about defense first, presentation later. 1) Sanctions Resilience Gold is no one else’s liability. In a world where reserves can be frozen with a keyboard, bullion offers insulation. This isn’t theory; it is balance-sheet risk management learned from a turbulent decade. 2) Diversification Beyond the Dollar The US dollar remains the dominant reserve currency, but diversification is rational. By trimming a few percentage points of currency risk and boosting gold, reserve managers reduce correlation and policy exposure. For currency shares, see the IMF’s COFER database. 3) Macro Uncertainty and Real Yields Slow growth pockets, election cycles, tariff talk, and persistent deficits keep the case for a neutral, liquid reserve asset intact. When real yields wobble and policy paths blur, gold tends to earn more space in the vault. Price Context: Momentum Meets Policy Risk Prices in the first half of 2025 rose sharply after 2024’s big run. Analysts across major banks have raised medium-term targets into 2026. That’s not a guarantee—just a read on the same scoreboard you are watching. How Official Buying Interacts with the Broader Market Official sector demand provides a floor—less price-sensitive than traders, more programmatic over time. ETF flows amplify moves. Inflows alongside central bank buying can push prices and sentiment higher. Corrections happen. If official buying pauses or real yields pop, fast-money selling can test the tape. For spot and benchmark context, the LBMA and major exchanges provide timely references; retail trackers can lag, so use institutional sources when precision matters. 2025 vs. 2024: What Changed and What Didn’t Changed pace, same direction: Quarterly tonnages in 2025 varied more than in 2024, but stayed positive overall. ETFs flipped from drag to lift: Inflows in Q1 and Q2 2025 complemented official purchases, strengthening the aggregate demand picture. Broader investor base: Western flows turned more supportive as the story moved from “surprise strength” to “structural buying.” Headline buyers: Poland’s aggressive stance led Europe’s narrative, while China’s steady additions influenced Asia’s reserve managers. De-Dollarization: Signal vs. Slogan There is plenty of talk about de-dollarization. The sober view: the dollar’s network and plumbing remain dominant and won’t vanish in a year. What is real is a slow rebalance that lifts gold’s share at the margin—sanctions resilience, neutrality, and liquidity all favor bullion. Think “portfolio hygiene,” not revolution. How to Read the Data Without the Drama If you want fewer surprises, focus on repeatable indicators over shiny headlines. Three questions keep you grounded: Are the biggest recent buyers (China, Poland, India, parts of Central Asia) still adding—or pausing? Are ETF flows confirming the official sector trend—or fighting it? Are policy risks easing or rising in Washington, Brussels, and Beijing? When official purchases and ETF inflows align, price strength often sticks, even when it pauses. When they diverge, expect chop. Risks You Should Not Ignore Real yields jump: A sustained rise in real yields can cool gold’s momentum as the opportunity cost shifts. Policy surprises: A hawkish pivot from the Federal Reserve or faster-than-expected balance-sheet runoff could pressure prices. Official pause: A couple of soft quarters from central banks would invite traders to probe the downside. ETF reversals: If investor ETF reversals flip to outflows, the market can feel heavier than headlines suggest. Two Quick Stories From the Field A former central banker told me over coffee, they never got fired for buying more gold; they got questioned for selling too soon. It’s a joke with teeth—and a window into bureaucratic risk management. A Florida retiree told me she sleeps better knowing a slice of the world’s savings sits in bars, not promises. Not a chart, but a useful reminder when screens flash red. Practical Takeaways for Retirees You are not a central bank, and you should not copy one. But you can learn from the incentives that drive them. Central banks think in decades, not news cycles. When that crowd keeps adding to their vaults, it says something about how they view currency, policy, and liquidity risk. Use official data for signal: the World Gold Council’s quarterly reports and monthly snapshots remain the best “no-spin” read. Cross-check currency shares: the IMF’s COFER data helps you see whether diversification is broad or concentrated. Watch flows, not just price: ETFs often tell you whether private investors are rowing with, or against, the official sector. Mind the calendar: elections, budgets, and central-bank meetings can shift the tone for weeks at a time. None of this is investment advice; it is a framework for reading a complex market calmly and consistently. Bottom Line for 2025 Central bank gold buying is not a flash in the pan; it is a policy choice that has persisted at scale for three years and remains robust in 2025. Prices have climbed alongside it, investor flows have joined it, and the motives—sanctions resilience, diversification, and macro uncertainty—haven’t vanished. If you track the official sector prints, watch ETF flows, and keep an eye on policy, you will understand the next stretch better than most talking heads on television. Conclusion In a noisy year, the signal is clear: central bank gold buying in 2025 stays near record highs for reasons rooted in risk management, not hype. That does not mean straight lines or easy money. It means the institutions with the biggest checkbooks continue to pay for insurance they can touch. Understand why they act the way they do, and you will have a steadier lens for the months ahead. The post Central Bank Gold Buying in 2025 first appeared on American Bullion.

Bitcoin is showing signs of life after a sharp drop from the $115,000 level, with bullish momentum quietly rebuilding beneath the surface. As volatility settles, a potential recovery is beginning to take shape, fueled by key technical signals on lower timeframes. With the market stabilizing, the next move could define the short-term trend. Sharp Pullback Follows Rejection At $115,000 Resistance Zone Providing an update on the current state of the crypto market, Kurnia Bijaksana pointed out that Bitcoin, along with several altcoins, experienced a sharp decline last night. The sudden move caught the attention of traders and analysts alike, prompting a closer look at both the technical and fundamental factors driving the action. From a purely technical perspective, the decline appears to have been triggered by Bitcoin hitting a key resistance zone near the $115,000 level. Despite the pullback, Kurnia observed that Bitcoin’s price is now showing early signs of recovery. This area has acted as a ceiling for prices in recent sessions, and the rejection sparked selling pressure across the broader crypto market. However, on the intraday chart, a rebound is already underway, suggesting that buyers are stepping in to defend key levels and potentially absorb the recent selling. Whether this bounce can turn into a sustained move higher remains to be seen, but for now, the charts suggest that Bitcoin may be stabilizing after the initial drop. 1-Hour Chart Reveals Early Signs Of A Trend Reversal Kurnia Bijaksana provided further analysis, focusing on Bitcoin’s price action within the 1-hour timeframe. According to the analyst, BTC is currently forming a higher low—a classic indicator that signals growing bullish momentum and the potential for an upward continuation in the near term. Bijaksana also highlighted the potential development of an inverse head and shoulders pattern, which is typically seen as a strong bullish reversal signal. In this case, the neckline of the pattern is located around the $115,300 level, a key resistance zone that Bitcoin must break through to confirm further upside. If Bitcoin manages to break and hold above this neckline, Bijaksana believes it could trigger a measured move toward the $118,000 level. A confirmation of this breakout would provide a clear bullish signal, possibly paving the way for continued strength in the coming sessions. Bitcoin is currently priced around $114,315, boasting a market capitalization exceeding $2.2 trillion. Over the past 24 hours, it has recorded a trading volume of more than $58.8 billion, reflecting strong market activity.

The Bank of England's (BoE) Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting on Thursday, August 7, 2025, is an important moment for the UK economy. Everyone is watching closely for the BoE's decision on interest rates and updated economic forecasts. The current Bank Rate is 4.25%, after cuts in February and May 2025. Most analysts and market predictions expect a 0.25% cut, bringing the rate down to 4.00%. This move would show the BoE continuing to take a more supportive approach to help the UK economy adjust to current challenges including the labor market. For all market-moving economic releases and events, see the MarketPulse Economic Calendar When it comes to the vote split, i do expect seven members to vote for a 0.25% rate cut, with one member possibly disagreeing (either wanting no change or a 0.5% cut). However, this vote split isn’t a strong indicator of future decisions, even though markets often react to it on the day. What are the Key Concerns for the Bank of England (BoE) Moving Forward?Labor Market The labour market has shown signs of cooling. The number of employees on payroll has dropped in seven of the last eight months. The unemployment rate has gone up slightly this year, and the data now seems more reliable than in past years. Job vacancy data from Indeed shows that the UK job market has slowed down more than other major economies. Source: ING Slowing Economic Growth Economic growth has been weaker than expected since the June MPC meeting. The economy shrank by 0.3% in April and 0.1% in May, falling short of the BoE's Q2 growth forecast of 0.25%. The UK economy is struggling with slow growth, a weak housing market, and declining business confidence. These poor growth numbers are the main reason for the BoE's expected rate cuts, as they pose a bigger risk to stability than high inflation. This shows the Bank is shifting its focus to supporting the economy, even with inflation above target. Sticky Inflation Keeps the BoE Careful Inflation remains a key concern despite recent declines. In June 2025, headline inflation (CPI) rose to 3.6%, up from 3.4% in May, staying well above the BoE's 2% target. Core CPI also increased to 3.7%, and services inflation stayed high at 4.7%, reflecting strong domestic price pressures. Food prices, higher wages, and rising labor costs are driving inflation. The BoE is particularly cautious when CPI is between 3.5% and 4%, as it risks becoming long-term. Inflation is expected to average 3.4% in 2025, drop to 2.6% in 2026, and hit the 2% target in late 2026. Services inflation is slow to improve due to factors like annual price setting in April, meaning noticeable changes may not appear until next spring. This delay forces the BoE to take a careful approach to rate cuts, avoiding moves that could reignite inflation before these pressures ease. Source: Created by Zain Vawda, Google Gemini Outlook Moving Forward: The Path of Monetary Policy If we do get a rate cut tomorrow, analysts predict the Bank of England (BoE) will continue with gradual 0.25% cuts every quarter. Markets expect one final cut in November 2025, bringing the rate to 3.75%. Some forecasts, like Danske Bank, predict further cuts into 2026, lowering rates to 2.75%, while others, like the OECD, expect rates to settle at 3.5% by 2026. The BoE has hinted at more cuts if conditions remain stable but hasn’t specified details. The BoE’s easing contrasts with the US Federal Reserve’s cautious approach, as the Fed held rates steady at 4.25%-4.50% in July due to inflation risks. However, last week's jobs data has significantly changed the outlook for the Federal Reserve moving forward. The BoE’s rate cuts face risks, including inflation staying above target longer than expected, the impact of past rate hikes as households refinance mortgages, and tighter government budgets. Global challenges, like US tariffs and geopolitical instability, add further pressure. These factors mean the BoE will likely take a slow and cautious approach to rate cuts, extending into 2026, as the economic outlook remains uncertain. Technical Analysis - GBP/USD From a technical standpoint, GBP/USD has arrested its recent slide which coincided with US Dollar weakness. The selloff which reached a low of 1.3141 last week before recovery still may have further legs. A rate cut by the BoE has probably been priced in which means the actual rate decision may do little to move GBP/USD tomorrow. However, if Governor Bailey issues any hawkish remarks, this could help edge GBP/USD lower toward last week lows. Only a daily candle close above the swing high at 1.3585 will invalidate the bearish setup and may be a sign that momentum is shifting. Heading into tomorrow, immediate resistance rests at 1.3378 before the 1.3500 handle comes into focus. On the downside, last week's lows at 1.3141 may provide support with a break below opening up a retest of the key pivot level at 1.3000.

The ongoing buying is heading towards the 50-Day MA close to 100 pips above (0.65135) – Testing this one would infer a re-entry into the daily ascending channel and will lead to interesting price action.

A failure to re-enter points to more bearish action and failing to break neither the most recent lows (0.6420) or recent swing highs (0.6530) would lead to some consolidation, similar to what we have observed in other currencies like the CHF.

Space and Time crypto (SXT), a Microsoft-backed altcoin that many think can be a Q4 winner, is coiling. The price has tightened into a range between $0.080 and $0.086, with the chart drawing a textbook symmetrical triangle. Volatility for SXT dropped off, volume is thinning, and price is hugging the apex near $0.081. Whichever side breaks first will likely set the tone for the next leg. (SXTUSDC) Space and Time Crypto Technical Picture: Mixed Signals Cloud the Outlook Technicals show a classic pressure buildup for SXT: Buyers keep defending $0.080 on dips. Sellers are stacked around $0.085 – $0.086, cutting off upside. Bollinger Bands briefly stretched on a sharp wick near $0.095 but are now compressed, setting the stage for the next move. There was a flash of optimism for SXT, a golden cross as the 20 SMA edged over the 200. It didn’t hold. The price rolled over, and so did the short-term average. A death cross followed just as fast, nullifying the signal. The 200 remains dominant, and the trend tilts back to the downside. Currently, a clear descending triangle pattern has formed on this 5-minute chart. SXT’s rally to $0.094 was the peak, and since then, each bounce high has been lower (first around $0.089, then $0.083, etc.), while the support around $0.078 remained steady. This pattern shows sellers gradually driving down the highs against an unyielding base of buyers at $0.078.

Bitcoin is trading in a vulnerable position, hovering below the critical $115K level and flirting with a potential breakdown towards $110K. After weeks of bullish momentum that propelled BTC to new highs, the market has entered a phase of caution and fear. The enthusiasm that once drove relentless buying has faded, replaced by increased selling pressure and defensive positioning from traders. Key data from CryptoQuant reveals that the futures market is leaning bearish, even as Bitcoin attempts to consolidate within its current range. Open interest remains elevated, but the Net Taker Volume suggests that sellers are increasingly aggressive, prioritizing execution speed over price. This shift in sentiment is a warning sign that the market structure is fragile. Analysts caution that Bitcoin is now highly susceptible to negative catalysts. Any adverse news or market trigger could unleash a cascade of long liquidations, amplifying bearish pressure and pushing BTC below key support levels. With market sentiment teetering and futures positioning skewed to the downside, Bitcoin is entering a critical phase where the next move could define whether it stabilizes for another rally — or accelerates into a deeper correction. The coming sessions will be pivotal for Bitcoin’s short-term trajectory. Bitcoin Futures Market Remains Fragile Despite Slight Easing Of Bearish Pressure Top analyst Axel Adler shared critical insights regarding Bitcoin’s current market structure, highlighting rising concerns in the futures market. After Bitcoin reached a new all-time high, bearish pressure on futures intensified, peaking at –7.5% on July 29th. Although this figure has slightly eased to –5.2%, Adler warns that the market structure remains fragile and highly susceptible to external shocks. Despite Bitcoin’s attempts to consolidate above $110K, futures market dynamics suggest an underlying weakness. Open interest remains high, and taker sell volume continues to outpace buying activity. Adler points out that while the immediate selling pressure has cooled off marginally, the imbalance between aggressive sellers and passive buyers exposes the market to a potential liquidation cascade. Any negative catalyst — such as regulatory developments, macroeconomic shifts, or a large sell-off — could trigger a rapid sequence of long liquidations. This would instantly amplify bearish momentum, pushing Bitcoin’s price lower and potentially accelerating a deeper correction phase. Some analysts are now warning of a possible drop below the $100K psychological level if the market fails to stabilize. The coming weeks will be critical, as Bitcoin hovers near key support zones while futures market sentiment remains bearish. BTC Struggling Below Key Resistance Amid Weak Momentum Bitcoin is currently trading at $114,061, showing signs of weakness after failing to reclaim the $115,724 resistance level. The recent bounce from the $112,000 zone lacked strong follow-through, as price action remains trapped below the key moving averages. The 50, 100, and 200-period SMAs are now acting as dynamic resistance levels, compressing BTC within a tight range and signaling a fragile market structure. Bears are defending the $115,724 resistance, which coincides with the 100 and 200 SMA zones, making it a significant barrier for bulls to overcome. If Bitcoin fails to break above this level in the coming sessions, the probability of a retest of the $112,000 support increases, with potential downside extensions toward $110,000. The overall structure indicates a bearish consolidation, with lower highs forming since late July. The next decisive move will likely be triggered by external catalysts, as the market awaits fresh momentum to determine the trend. A breakout above $115,724 could open the door for a test of $117,000, while failure to reclaim that level keeps BTC vulnerable to deeper corrections. For now, caution dominates the short-term outlook. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

After the recent news of China casting a blanket ban on crypto, a Chinese security minister has warned that foreign companies are using dubious crypto schemes to collect biometric data, including iris scans, calling this practice a threat to national security and the violation of personal privacy. As per an article published on 6 August 2025 by the local news outlet Global Times, the Chinese ministry has highlighted growing concerns regarding biometric technology, citing recent cases in which foreign intelligence agencies unlawfully extracted facial data from individuals in China for espionage purposes. Although the ministry hasn’t dropped any names, the outlined methodology shared by the authorities closely resembles Worldcoin’s approach, a crypto startup co-founded by OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman. For those who don’t know, World, previously known as Worldcoin, offers crypto tokens to its users in exchange for their iris scans. The founders launched the startup intending to use biometric processes to verify unique identities and expand digital financial access, especially in underserved regions. According to the ministry, an unnamed foreign firm leveraged crypto token distribution to gather vast amounts of iris data from users around the world. Once gathered, the information was sent overseas. Explore: Top 20 Crypto to Buy in August 2025 Chinese Officials Expand On Growing Risk Of Biometric Data Leaks The publication noted that biometric identification technologies, known for their speed and accuracy, have gained mass acceptance in the last couple of years. Further, the officials noted that while these technologies are convenient, they store and process facial features, fingerprints, irises and in some cases, body movements. With more and more people using this technology, the risk of a data breach has only increased. To make their point, Chinese officials mentioned cases where foreign operatives manipulated biometric data to get access to sensitive information or penetrate secure facilities. Case in point, they mentioned a fingerprint-based payment system connected to a corporate database that suffered constant security breaches because of weak cybersecurity protocols, resulting in significant data exposure. Additionally, the ministry emphasised that iris patterns are especially sensitive owing to their stability and resistance to duplication, which makes them ideal for authentication in high-security settings. However, because of their uniqueness, they are also lucrative targets for cybercriminals. Explore: 9+ Best High-Risk, High-Reward Crypto to Buy in August 2025 Authorities Advise Citizens To Monitor Their Data Closely With biometric technology gaining traction across various industries, ranging from financial services to immigration, China’s Ministry of Public Security has issued an advisory urging citizens to be more vigilant in this matter. In its advisory, the ministry has advised citizens to exercise caution when submitting biometric data, especially for services involving facial scans, fingerprints or iris recognition. It further emphasised that citizens can demand transparency from data collectors about how they store, process, and utilise personal information, encouraged them to thoroughly review privacy policies, and cautioned them against signs of overreach in data collection practices. Notably, no new regulatory measures have been introduced so far regarding this matter.

Glencore (LON: GLEN), the world’s second-largest cobalt producer, warned Wednesday that a significant portion of its cobalt output may remain unsold by the end of 2025 due to ongoing export restrictions in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The DRC, which supplies the bulk of the world’s cobalt, imposed a four-month export ban in February after prices hit a nine-year low. In June, the government extended the ban by another three months, aiming to curb oversupply and buy time to develop a quota system for distributing export rights among mining companies. “The extension of the export ban is expected to significantly tighten cobalt availability and accelerate inventory drawdowns, providing support to prices,” Glencore said in its first-half results. The Swiss miner and commodities trader said it is stockpiling all cobalt production from its DRC operations and has declared force majeure on some deliveries earlier this year. While Glencore did not disclose the size of its cobalt stockpile, it said it remains conservative in its assumptions, projecting no material financial impact even if no sales occur in 2025. Any resumed exports would be considered an upside. Despite the export ban, Glencore’s total cobalt production climbed 19% year over year to 18,900 metric tonnes. The company raised its 2025 production forecast to between 42,000 and 45,000 tonnes, up from 38,200 tonnes in 2024. In total, Glencore mined 35,100 tonnes of cobalt last year at its Congo sites, where the metal is typically extracted as a byproduct of copper mining. Cobalt prices collapsed to record inflation-adjusted lows in January, hammered by surging supply from Congo and sluggish demand from the electric vehicle sector, which has eclipsed aviation and aerospace as the leading consumer of the metal. Agribusiness’ future Glencore also hinted on Wednesday it may eventually divest its 16.4% stake in Bunge Global, the newly formed agribusiness giant born from Bunge’s $34 billion merger with Glencore-backed grain trader Viterra. “The agriculture business is not necessarily consistent with our business model,” chief executive officer Gary Nagle said in a webcast on Wednesday following the earnings release. “Having a 16.4% shareholding in Bunge is probably not something that would be for Glencore in the long term.”

Crypto analyst Mark Cullen has laid out the game plan for the Bitcoin price amid the flagship crypto’s choppy price action. Based on his analysis, BTC could either crash to $100,000 or rally to $122,000, close to its current all-time high (ATH) of $123,000. The Game Plan For The Bitcoin Price In an X post, Mark Cullen shared what he described as the ‘Bitcoin game plan.’ He noted that BTC is filling out the inefficient area between the two previous weekly ranges. The analyst further remarked that the next move will be determined by how the Bitcoin price breaks out or breaks down from this range. Cullen stated that a break above $116,000 and holding above the previous range low could help the Bitcoin price build a bullish structure for a bigger squeeze to new ATHs later this month. His accompanying chart showed that BTC could first rally to around $122,000, close to its current ATH, before it breaks above to new highs. On the other hand, there is also the possibility of the Bitcoin price declining further. The analyst stated BTC is likely to crash to $100,000 if it loses the weekend low at around $111,000 and fails to attempt a reclaim of $112,000. Cullen declared that critical weeks’ price action is ahead for the flagship crypto, seeing as it is at a crossroads. It is worth mentioning that BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes is one of those who believe that the Bitcoin price could still crash to $100,000. Hayes recently predicted that BTC will retest this level while ETH retests $3,000. He alluded to the tariffs as one of the reasons crypto prices would drop this low. The crypto founder also suggests that there is currently no available liquidity to boost the prices of these assets. The last time that Bitcoin was at $100,000 was towards the end of June, before it then went on to reach new all-time highs in July. BTC Could Still Drop To As Low As $95k Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has indicated that the Bitcoin price could still drop to as low as 95,000. In an X post, he noted that the last two times the weekly RSI dropped below the 14 SMA, BTC corrected by 20% to 30%. Therefore, he remarked that the flagship crypto could fall to $95,000 if history repeats itself. In the meantime, the $112,000 level is the level to watch for the Bitcoin price. Titan of Crypto described this level as the line in the sand,” as BTC continues to reject the bearish Fair Value Gap (FVG) at around $114,000. At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $114,000, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Coinbase stock (COIN) is down more than 30% since its July peak, but 99Bitcoins analysts and others aren’t ready to call it a collapse. Mizuho Financial, once openly skeptical of COIN stock, just bumped its price target from $217 to $267. The catalyst is a pickup in July trading volumes after a flat second quarter. Still, the tone remains cautious. Mizuho kept its neutral rating, citing a 45% drop in consumer spot trading and a 39% dip in transaction revenue last quarter. “While trading volumes were underwhelming this quarter, July has seen a rebound… reflecting improving market activity,” – Mizuho analyst note, August 2025 (COIN) Trump Fueled Coinbase Stock Summer Surge Much of Coinbase’s recent action tracks back to July’s legislative run. COIN rallied sharply after President Donald Trump signed the GENIUS Act, the first federal law to provide a regulatory framework for stablecoins. The optimism helped COIN join the S&P 500, but the rally was short-lived. After spiking in mid-July, the stock reversed course and trades below Mizuho’s revised target of $297.87 as of Wednesday morning’s session. Meanwhile, Citi analysts remain bullish, hiking their target from $270 to $505, betting that Coinbase will benefit from both regulatory clarity and rising BTC ▲0.14% prices. In Q2, Coinbase reported $1.43 billion in net income, a massive jump from $66 million last quarter and just $36 million a year earlier. The platform processed $237 billion in trading volume, slightly up from $226 billion in Q2 2024, but most of that came from institutions, not consumers, a trend we see all over crypto right now.

Solana opened August trading in a tight range just above $165. The coin has hovered near that level after a sharp run-up. Based on reports, big holders rotating profits and deeper DeFi ties are reshaping the outlook for SOL. Solana Holds Critical Support Zone According to on-chain data, SOL has formed what looks like a Golden Cross on its daily chart, where the 50-day moving average crossed above the 200-day line. A pullback to around $160 has lined up with both the 200 EMA and a key trendline. Analysis shows that the $161–$166 area has become a firm floor. If buyers defend that pocket, SOL could climb toward the first barrier near $189 and then test $206. Analyst Mary Emerald has penciled in a move up to $256, a gain of about 60% from today’s prices. On its own, SOL has already jumped more than 50% from earlier lows this year. Prices still face pressure, though. The MACD histogram is negative and hasn’t shown a clear turn upward. That hints that bears have some edge until momentum shifts. Keeping an eye on trading volume around $189 will be key. A strong break and close above that level could open the door to higher targets. New Mobile Phone Starts Shipping In 50 Countries Meanwhile, with the long-awaited Seeker phone now available in over 50 countries, traders are growing more optimistic about Solana’s price as they eye a possible breakout. The handset combines Web3 functionality with a familiar smartphone experience, using hardware-level security to keep private keys and seed phrases completely separate from the app layer. This development makes Solana a more appealing platform for developers, fuels a vibrant ecosystem and expands SOL’s role as a utility token. Forecasts Suggest Modest Gains Ahead Based on the latest Solana price prediction, SOL is set to rise by 5.28% and reach $173 by September 5, 2025. Over the past 30 days, SOL has recorded 16/30 green days with 7.66% volatility. Current sentiment reads as neutral and the Fear & Greed Index sits at 50. Looking at these metrics, a move toward $173 by early September seems likely if SOL can hold above $166. Failing that, a drop to $58 could prompt a deeper test of support. If buyers can lock in gains around $165 and power SOL above $189 on solid volume, the path to $206—and maybe even $256—comes into view. Until that happens, though, traders may want to wait for clearer signs that momentum has flipped. Featured image from Nansen Research, chart from TradingView

Former Binance CEO Changpeng ‘CZ’ Zhao has filed a motion to dismiss a lawsuit from FTX that aims to recover nearly $1.8 billion. Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX filed a lawsuit against its competitor Binance and CZ on 10 November 2024. The lawsuit seeks damages, accusing Binance of playing a key role in it’s downfall. However, according to a 4 August 2025 filing on Zhao’s behalf, “Plaintiffs nonsensically blame Mr Zhao and others for Mr Bankman-Fried’s failings.” Zhao calls the claim “legally unfounded” and “outright incoherent.” His legal team insisted that “while Plaintiffs and Binance were rivals, they were also briefly business partners when the Binance Defendants owned about a 20% stake in FTX Trading. But Zhao and Bankman-Fried could not work together, and the parties separated.” Explore: FTX Declares War On Binance And Zhao For Triggering A Liquidity Crises FTX Lacks Jurisdiction Over UAE Citizen CZ Zhao’s legal team’s primary argument is that the US court lacks jurisdiction over Zhao, who is a citizen and resident of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The motion contends that the case is far removed from the US, as the transactions and entities involved were all based offshore. Zhao’s lawyers also asserted that he was not a direct recipient of the funds in question. The legal team described CZ as “nominal counterparty” in the transaction. This essentially means that he did not have personal possession or control over the crypto that was exchanged. The deal involved Binance (BUSD) and FTX token (FTT). Meanwhile, FTX, now managed by a team working t repay creditors, alleges that the 2021 share buyback was funded with customer money, constituting a fraudulent transfer. DISCOVER: Best Meme Coin ICOs to Invest in 2025 FTX Declares War On Binance And Zhao For Triggering A Liquidity Crises FTX was once one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world, but it filed for bankruptcy in November 2022. Revelations of financial mismanagement and fraud remains the main reason behind its collapse. Importantly, the company’s downfall led to billions of dollars in losses for investors and shaking public confidence in digital assets. The lawsuit accused Binance and its former CEO Changpeng Zhao of engaging in actions that exacerbated FTX’s financial instability. Specifically, FTX claims that Binance’s decision to sell off a large portion of its holdings in FTT—the native token of FTX—triggered a liquidity crisis that ultimately led to FTX’s collapse. In early November 2022, Zhao publicly announced that Binance would liquidate its entire position in FTT due to “recent revelations” about FTX’s financial health.

Meme coins are known for hype, volatility, and short lifespans. But Little Pepe ($LILPEPE) is trying to rewrite that narrative. With over $16M raised across multiple presale stages, the project is building more than a token – it’s launching its own Layer 2 blockchain for meme coins, complete with zero-tax trading, bot protection, and a fully integrated launchpad for new projects. As speculation rages across the meme coin sector, Little Pepe is positioning itself as the infrastructure that future meme tokens can rely on – offering fast, secure, and low-cost transactions on a blockchain purpose-built for virality. Little Pepe Story So Far – Viral From Birth Little Pepe came out swinging, with strong presale momentum as soon as it launched. Stage 1: Sold out in 3 days – $500K raised at $0.001 per token Stage 2: Price bumped to $0.0011-$0.0015, demand increased – $1.23M+ raised Stage 3: Token price rose to $0.0012 Stage 4: The presale raised $2.9M Stage 5: Price is at $0.0014, and the raise is over $5.1M Fast-forward a bit, and the presale now sits at Stage 9. Tokens cost $0.0019 – and over $16.3M has poured into the presale so far. Why all the interest? Most meme coins are just ERC-20 tokens. Little Pepe is building the chain those meme coins will want to launch on. Most of the best meme coins ride the Ethereum or Solana wave, but both chains come with major downsides: high gas fees, slow confirmations, and vulnerable bot manipulation. Little Pepe’s Layer 2 directly addresses these pain points: Ultra-low gas fees for cheaper trading and better access for retail users Fast finality means no more waiting for confirmations during hype moments Bot protection provides built-in anti-sniping and fairer launches That said, Little Pepe is EVM-compatible, so existing dApps and token contracts can migrate seamlessly. Tokenomics support the presale, with over 26% reserved directly for the presale and another 30% kept for on-chain reserves. Real Utility – A Launchpad Built for Meme Coin Creators At the heart of Little Pepe’s ecosystem is Pepe’s Pump Pad, a user-friendly launchpad designed to make deploying new meme coins effortless and secure. Bypass the fuss of Ethereum launches and setting up smart contracts. With the Pump Pad, users can create tokens without writing a single line of code, lock liquidity automatically, and integrate default smart contract security measures. The system also includes built-in bot protection and allows for instant deployment on Little Pepe’s high-speed Layer 2 blockchain. Little Pepe’s Pump Pad gives meme coin creators a safe, streamlined platform to launch without losing any of that distinctive meme coin flair.. What’s Next for Little Pepe? Little Pepe’s development roadmap follows a quirky but clear trajectory: Pregnancy, Birth, and Growth. The current phase – Pregnancy – focuses on presale fundraising and community building. The upcoming Birth phase will introduce major exchange listings, first on DEXs, then expanding to CEXs as soon as possible. The Birth phase will also see an expanded marketing campaign. The final phase – Growth – will see the launch of the full Layer 2 blockchain and the rollout of ecosystem tools and partner integrations. After the presale concludes, users will be able to claim their tokens directly via the official website. Little Pepe enforces a zero-tax policy, meaning no buy or sell fees – a rare move in the meme coin space that encourages frequent and frictionless trading on-chain. The $777K Giveaway: How to Enter What’s one reason for all the buzz around Little Pepe? A massive $777K giveaway. A total of 10 winners will receive $77K each in $LILPEPE tokens. Entering is simple: participants must purchase at least $100 worth of tokens during the presale and complete social media engagement tasks – such as following and sharing content on X and Telegram. The more actions a participant completes, the higher their chances of winning one of the coveted $77K prizes. Little Pepe – Born to Run In a sea of copy-paste meme coins, Little Pepe is building real infrastructure. From its Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 chain to its one-click launchpad and zero-tax trading model, the project looks to transform the meme coin meta in 2025 and beyond. To join the presale, connect your MetaMask or Trust Wallet to the presale website. Buy $LILPEPE with $ETH or $USDT (ERC-20). You can also pay with a card through the official Little Pepe website. With over $16M raised and presale prices still under $0.0020, $LILPEPE might be one of the few frog tokens with real legs. Do your own research – this isn’t financial advice.

The United States has begun talks with the Cook Islands for research on seabed mineral exploration and development, just months after the South Pacific nation inked cooperation pacts with China that included undersea mining. The US State Department announced Tuesday that the deal would involve mapping the Cook Islands’ Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), calling it “one of the most promising regions for deep-sea mineral deposits.” The Cook Islands, a self-governing country in free association with New Zealand, consists of 15 islands and atolls located between New Zealand and Hawaii. Officials from the Cook Islands signed a five-year strategic partnership with China in February, covering cooperation in seabed mining, education, the economy, infrastructure, fisheries and disaster management. That move strained relations with Wellington. In June, New Zealand suspended millions in budget support after the Cook Islands’ prime minister signed the deals without consultation. Under their constitutional arrangement, New Zealand and the Cook Islands are expected to coordinate on security, defence and foreign policy. New Zealand’s foreign ministry responded cautiously this week, saying it was aware of the US initiative and respected “the rights and responsibilities of states to manage their mineral resources.” Geopolitical move The US push for seabed mining reflects a broader geopolitical strategy. In April, President Donald Trump issued an executive order to accelerate American licensing for deep-sea mining, describing it as a “gold rush” to counter China’s growing influence. The order marked a sharp departure from decades of US deference to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), a treaty Washington has never ratified but largely followed. Legal experts warn that the unilateral approach risks undermining global maritime norms. Mining lawyer Scot Anderson, who specializes in energy and natural resources at Womble Bond Dickinson, told MINING.COM that Trump’s order marked a dramatic shift that “could create both legal and diplomatic risks” and encourage other countries to expand maritime claims unilaterally. Despite the controversy, Canada’s the US subsidiary of Canadian-registered The Metals Company (Nasdaq: TMC) submitted the first application to mine the seabed in international waters under a 1980 law within days of Trump’s order. This week, TMC released the first probable mineral reserves for its NORI-D polymetallic nodule project in the Clarion Clipperton Zone of the Pacific Ocean. Seabed mining advocates claim the practice has a smaller environmental footprint than land-based operations. Critics argue the science is far from settled. The deep ocean remains largely unexplored, and disrupting its ecosystems could unleash cascading effects throughout the marine food chain. _________________________________________ RELATED: The geopolitical race to mine the deep-sea floor (Podcast)

Компания Strategy (ранее MicroStrategy) объявила, что за прошлую неделю приобрела дополнительный биткоин ($BTC) на сумму $2,46 млрд. С 28 июля по 3 августа компания купила еще 21 021 токен, доведя общий запас до 628 791 $BTC (что сейчас примерно оценивается в $72,18 млрд). Это третья по величине покупка в долларовом эквиваленте за всю историю накопления компании топ-крипты за последние пять лет. И это отличные новости для лучших криптопресейлов лета. Когда $BTC получает поддержку крупных институциональных игроков, это обычно поднимает общий рыночный настрой и вызывает новый интерес к проектам на ранних стадиях. Стратегия Сэйлора: покупать и хранить $BTC в течение 21 года В недавнем интервью основатель Strategy Майкл Сэйлор подтвердил долгосрочное видение компании. Он рассказал, что планируют держать $BTC до 21 года, ожидая доходность не менее 50% в год и усиление позиций с течением времени. Подтверждая долгосрочный тезис Сэйлора, стоимость BTC, которая сейчас оценивается в $114 000, выросла более чем на 125%. Поэтому неудивительно, что Strategy остается крупнейшим корпоративным держателем биткоинов в мире. И ее подход приносит свои плоды. Во втором квартале 2025 года компания отчиталась об операционной прибыли в размере $14 млрд, которая почти полностью обеспечена активами в $BTC, что на целых 7000% больше, чем в следующем году. Учитывая, что такие крупные игроки, как Strategy, идут ва-банк на $BTC, легко понять, почему инвесторы проявляют все больший интерес к ранним криптопроектам, таким как Maxi Doge ($MAXI), Snorter Token ($SNORT) и blockDAG ($DAG). Это особенно актуально, если принять во внимание, что они доступны по самым низким ценам до момента появления на крупных биржах. 1. Maxi Doge ($MAXI) – Shiba Inu на стероидах, созданная для трейдеров с 1 000x плечом Вдохновленная знаменитым персонажем Shiba Inu, как и легендарные мем-коины $DOGE и $SHIB, “стероидный” Maxi Doge ($MAXI) стремительно привлекает внимание. С момента запуска на прошлой неделе проект уже собрал более $359 000 на предпродаже. Ранний успех объясняется тем, что токен изначально создан для торговли с плечом 1 000x и призван передать ощущение “$MAXI pump”. Проект ориентирован на трейдеров, которые ищут максимальные риски ради взрывных прибылей, что идеально вписывается в современную культуру мем-криптовалют. Источник: Maxi Doge Его токеномика также, вероятно, привлекает внимание. Значительные 40% от общего предложения токенов выделены на маркетинг, а дополнительные 25% идут в Фонд Maxi для “максимальной экспозиции проекта и оптимальной динамики пампа” – каждое из этих решений демонстрирует приверженность устойчивости проекта. То, что также отличает $MAXI, – это план подключения к платформам фьючерсной торговли, как отмечено в четвертой фазе дорожной карты. Для спекулятивной мем-монеты это знаменует смелый шаг к практическому использованию и долгосрочной актуальности. Возьмем, к примеру, $SHIB. Он превратился из мем-монеты в богатый утилитами альткоин со своей собственной децентрализованной биржей (ShibaSwap), коллекционной карточной игрой (Shiba Eternity) и блокчейн-сетью Layer 2 (Shibarium). Подпитываемый растущим использованием dApp, $SHIB может подняться с текущей цены $0,00001220 до $0,000041 в следующем году. Если $MAXI последует аналогичным путем, его предпродажа на раннем этапе может стать редкой возможностью до того, как спрос выйдет из-под контроля. Вы можете приобрести $MAXI на предпродаже всего за $0,0002505, используя $ETH, $USDT, $USDC или $BNB. 2. Snorter Token ($SNORT) – Монета, вдохновленная трубкозубом, готовая вынюхать высокопотенциальные криптовалюты Snorter Token ($SNORT) является основой Snorter Bot – торгового бота в Telegram. После запуска в этом квартале он поможет вам выявлять взрывные проекты до того, как они станут вирусными и потенциально вырастут в 1000 раз. Snorter Bot сначала появится в сети Solana, чтобы использовать ее высокую скорость и низкие комиссии, затем расширится на Ethereum и BNB Chain, а позже получит поддержку Polygon и Base. Такой мультичейн-подход обеспечит пользователям гибкость торговли на самых активных криптоэкосистемах. Бот также оснащен системой обнаружения rug pull и honeypot, чтобы помочь избежать мошеннических проектов. С учетом того, что рынок криптотрейдинговых ботов прогнозируется с ростом примерно на 14% CAGR и может достичь $154 млрд к 2033 году, $SNORT нацелен на развитие вместе с индустрией. Особенно это актуально, поскольку токен открывает доступ к премиальным функциям, правам управления и стейкингу с доходностью 156% годовых. Токен $SNORT сейчас можно купить на предпродаже по $0,1003. Сейчас удачный момент для участия, так как после выхода на биржи токен может торговаться около $0,94, что сулит потенциальную прибыль до ~836%. 3. BlockDAG ($DAG) – Усиливает основной слой блокчейна и привлекает свыше $362 млн $DAG – это основа BlockDAG, передового блокчейна первого уровня, который сочетает безопасность подтверждения работы (PoW) как у Биткоина и скорость и масштабируемость собственной архитектуры на основе направленного ацикличного графа (DAG). Проще говоря, он позволяет параллельно подтверждать блоки, обрабатывая тысячи транзакций в секунду. Будучи полностью совместимым с EVM, он облегчает доступ и разработку. Благодаря этому смарт-контракты и dApps на базе Ethereum легко запускаются в сети с минимальными изменениями. В BlockDAG также есть такие функции, как конструктор смарт-контрактов без кода, мобильный майнинг (через приложение X1 Miner) и гибкие модули распределения комиссий для создателей dApps. $DAG используется для оплаты комиссий за транзакции, взаимодействия со смарт-контрактами и вознаграждений сообщества, что делает его мощным utility-токеном с высоким потенциалом роста. Успех на раннем этапе предпродажи подчеркивает значимость токена: он уже привлек свыше $362 миллионов, несмотря на то что один $DAG в настоящее время стоит всего $0,0016 и пока не торгуется на крупных биржах, как было обещано – MEXC, Coinstore, BitMart. Новые криптовалюты готовы к росту вместе с $BTC С крупными институтами вроде Strategy, совершающими миллиардные движения в $BTC и демонстрирующими долгосрочный интерес к криптовалютам, импульс наверняка продолжит нарастать во всем пространстве. Независимо от того, интересуетесь ли вы мем-монетами вроде Maxi Doge ($MAXI), торговыми ботами как Snorter Token ($SNORT) или новаторскими Layer 1 инициативами наподобие BlockDAG, каждый из этих проектов на ранней стадии может выиграть от растущего рыночного оптимизма.
