Oil extends gains into second day as Asian markets post mixed results

Oil extends gains into second day as Asian markets post mixed results

The post Oil extends gains into second day as Asian markets post mixed results appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Asian markets remained mixed and European stocks slipped on Thursday, with investors bracing for fresh guidance on interest rates in the US. However, oil extended its gains for the second day straight. European stocks mostly edged lower. In early trading, the DAX in Germany eased 0.2% to 24,236.16. London’s FTSE 100 also lost 0.2%, settling at 9,269.31, and Paris’ CAC 40 fell 0.5% to 7,931.26. Asian markets move in different directions Asian markets, on the other hand, didn’t follow a clear direction. Tokyo’s Nikkei 225 dropped 0.6% to 42,610.17 after a private survey showed factory activity was below the break-even line for a second month in August.  Elsewhere, the Hang Seng index in Hong Kong was 0.2% lower and reached 25,104.61, whereas the Shanghai Composite inched up 0.1% to 3,771.10.  Australia remained the outlier. The S&P/ASX 200 advanced 1.1% to reach 9,019.10, crossing 9,000, propelled by stronger economic readings and upbeat corporate results. The South Korean Kospi gained 0.4% to reach 3,141.74 after paring part of its early rise.  Oil prices edged up for a second straight session Energy markets extended a recent rebound as inventory data pointed to tight U.S. supplies. Oil prices firmed for another session, challenging the perception that a global surplus will emerge later in 2025.  Brent crude was priced above $67 per barrel, building on a 1.6% advance on Wednesday, though prices remained locked in a narrow band that has held for over 2 weeks amid thin summer volumes. U.S. crude in storage fell by 6 million barrels in the previous week, the largest draw since mid-June, according to government figures. Gasoline stockpiles declined for the 5th straight week, reinforcing signs that, despite talk of a later-year surplus, global inventories remain unusually low. Demand for jet fuel also stayed very strong. Even with the recent…

MetaMask Announces mUSD Stablecoin Ahead of Expected Launch Later This Year

MetaMask Announces mUSD Stablecoin Ahead of Expected Launch Later This Year

The post MetaMask Announces mUSD Stablecoin Ahead of Expected Launch Later This Year appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key highlights: MetaMask has officially announced its own stablecoin, MetaMask USD (mUSD), though it has not launched yet. mUSD will be issued by Stripe-owned Bridge and backed 1:1 by U.S. cash and Treasuries, with minting supported by decentralized protocol M0. The stablecoin is set to debut later this year on Ethereum and Linea, with real-world spending via the MetaMask Card expected by year-end. MetaMask, the world’s leading self-custodial crypto wallet developed by Consensys, has officially unveiled MetaMask USD (mUSD), its native stablecoin. While the stablecoin is not yet live, the announcement confirms earlier speculation triggered by a briefly posted governance proposal that hinted at its development. Today, we’re announcing MetaMask USD ($mUSD) – MetaMask’s native stablecoin. 🦊 MetaMask is the first self custodial wallet to launch a stablecoin, and we have big plans for it. 🧵👇 pic.twitter.com/bbUqYGWXJw — MetaMask.eth 🦊 (@MetaMask) August 21, 2025 This marks the first time a self-custodial crypto wallet has introduced its own stablecoin, underscoring MetaMask’s broader push to streamline user experience and deepen its role in decentralized finance. A stablecoin designed for native wallet integration mUSD is set to be fully backed 1:1 by U.S. cash and short-duration Treasuries and will be issued by Bridge, a Stripe-owned stablecoin infrastructure platform. Minting will occur through M0, a decentralized protocol purpose-built for composability and transparency. Unlike most stablecoins that are issued independently and later integrated into wallets, mUSD is designed to be native to MetaMask from the outset. “It’s not just a store of value, but a stablecoin designed to power every part of the MetaMask experience: ramping, swapping, bridging, and spending,” MetaMask stated. The stablecoin will initially launch on Ethereum and Linea (Consensys’s EVM-equivalent Layer 2 network) and is expected to be deeply integrated across MetaMask’s DeFi ecosystem. According to the company, mUSD will serve as…

9 Ways Bitcoin Treasury Companies Can Differentiate In A Crowded Market

9 Ways Bitcoin Treasury Companies Can Differentiate In A Crowded Market

The post 9 Ways Bitcoin Treasury Companies Can Differentiate In A Crowded Market appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Era of Easy Differentiation Is Over There was a time when holding Bitcoin was enough. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) proved it in 2020—simply moving idle cash into Bitcoin electrified markets, drove premiums above NAV, and rewrote corporate playbooks. But five years later, the battlefield has changed. Dozens of public companies across Japan, France, the U.S., the U.K., Sweden, Canada, and Brazil now run Bitcoin treasury strategies. ETFs have captured billions in flows. El Salvador holds it as sovereign reserve. In this environment, “we own Bitcoin” is no longer a differentiator. If a company cannot compete on size, speed, or scale, it must assemble alternative sources of firepower to win over shareholders and maintain its mNAV premium. Without it, momentum stalls, media cycles fade, and mNAV grinds down toward 1—or below. 1) Lean into jurisdictional leverage Why it matters. Jurisdiction sets the cost of capital, the shape of your investor base, and the menu of corporate instruments you can legally deploy. It is a design variable, not a constraint. What it unlocks. In Japan, ultra-low rates and NISA eligibility made zero-coupon, premium-redeemable debt and retail inflows a rational path. In France, PEA-PME turns qualified equities into long-horizon, tax-advantaged vehicles, ideal for controlled floats and large ATMs. In the U.S., fair-value accounting and deep markets enable layered stacks across convertibles, secured bonds, preferreds, and ATMs. Elsewhere (U.K., Sweden, Canada, Brazil), wrappers and local capital habits create distinct demand curves that equities can tap even when local ETF options are limited or structurally different. Operator’s takeaway. Your jurisdiction should amplify your intended shareholder mix (retail wrappers vs. institutions), your funding cadence (episodic raises vs. rolling ATMs), and your narrative (innovation vs. stability). Treat geography as a capital tool. 2) Seasoned leadership and the rise of the Head of Bitcoin Strategy Why this role…

What Will Fed Chairman Jerome Powell Say on Friday? Here Are the Predictions and Possible Effects on the Market

What Will Fed Chairman Jerome Powell Say on Friday? Here Are the Predictions and Possible Effects on the Market

The post What Will Fed Chairman Jerome Powell Say on Friday? Here Are the Predictions and Possible Effects on the Market appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Fed Chair Jerome Powell is expected to hold his own against making a clear commitment to cut interest rates in September during his speech at the Jackson Hole meeting on Friday. While markets are strongly pricing in a rate cut, Powell may avoid giving definitive signals, highlighting the uncertainty surrounding the process. Research firm LHMeyer suggested Powell could temper expectations to prevent markets from fully locking in on the cut. Powell’s speech will come under even greater pressure than usual this year. US President Donald Trump has been criticizing the Fed chair for months, calling him a “stubborn mule” and “unintelligent,” and harshly criticizing his resistance to interest rate cuts. Trump is poised to challenge the Fed’s internal balance of power by nominating economist Stephen Miran, a figure aligned with his political affiliation, to fill the vacant seat at the Fed. Miran, who supports Trump’s calls for interest rate cuts, also advocates for reforms within the Fed that would empower chairmen to dismiss figures like Powell. TS Lombard Chief Economist Steven Blitz commented, “Miran is not one to be swayed by tradition. He will be Trump’s provocateur at the FOMC, and he will not hide it.” Powell’s job isn’t just made more difficult by Trump’s pressure and Miran’s potential influence. At the Fed’s last meeting, Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, considered among his successor candidates, voted against the majority to cut interest rates. On the data front, the picture is mixed. A weak July employment report signaled a slowdown in the labor market, while a rise in the producer price index fueled concerns that Trump’s tariffs would push up consumer prices. “The tariffs have created a stagflationary effect and seriously complicated the Fed’s job,” said Torsten Sløk, chief economist at Apollo Global Management. Barclays Chief Economist Marc Giannoni, however, noted…

S&P 500 hits familiar post-election year slump; this chart suggests more pain ahead

S&P 500 hits familiar post-election year slump; this chart suggests more pain ahead

The post S&P 500 hits familiar post-election year slump; this chart suggests more pain ahead appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The S&P 500 has slipped over the past four trading days, tracking a familiar late-summer dip in post-election years.  Carson Investment Research data shows that since 1950, the index typically bottoms by late October before resuming a year-end rally. So far in 2025, the pattern is playing out in line with history. Average post-election year for S&P 500. Source: Carson Investment Research via Isabelnet Fed policy in focus All eyes now turn to the Federal Reserve’s annual Jackson Hole Economic Symposium, where Fed Chair Jerome Powell will deliver a much-anticipated keynote on Friday.  Investors  are betting another cut could arrive as early as September, with markets currently pricing in high odds of easing soon.  Still, Powell faces a delicate balancing act, he must tread between easing signs and stubborn inflation, all amid political pressure over Fed independence. Analysts say his tone could determine whether this summer weakness ends in a bounce or bleeds into year-end.

Top 7 Ethereum Altcoins for 2025 — MAGACOIN FINANCE Joins ETH, LINK, UNI, ARB, AAVE, MATIC

Top 7 Ethereum Altcoins for 2025 — MAGACOIN FINANCE Joins ETH, LINK, UNI, ARB, AAVE, MATIC

The post Top 7 Ethereum Altcoins for 2025 — MAGACOIN FINANCE Joins ETH, LINK, UNI, ARB, AAVE, MATIC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News Whale wallets are rotating into Ethereum gems as 2025 approaches. Analysts rank MAGACOIN FINANCE alongside ETH, LINK, UNI, ARB, AAVE, and MATIC, with scarce presale allocations and forecasts of up to 35x ROI. Whale wallets and smart money trackers are turning to Ethereum gems in the hunt for 2025 portfolio leaders. Among the top seven altcoins flagged by analysts, MAGACOIN FINANCE is emerging as the stealth presale play with 35x upside potential, while established names like Ether, Chainlink, and Polygon continue to anchor the Ethereum ecosystem. Together, these projects form a cross-section of the network’s most promising tokens, blending utility, innovation, and strong adoption trends. 1. MAGACOIN FINANCE (MAGACOIN) MAGACOIN FINANCE is quickly becoming one of the most talked-about Ethereum-based presales of 2025. Its viral branding, strong community engagement, and presale scarcity have positioned it as a breakout contender for speculative upside. Analysts highlight whale accumulation and presale demand as early signals of momentum, with forecasts suggesting the project could deliver returns of up to 35x as the next cycle matures. Unlike typical meme launches, MAGACOIN FINANCE benefits from a political–cultural narrative that fuels online attention while also driving serious allocation from both retail traders and larger smart-money wallets. This combination of hype, scarcity, and real adoption metrics has led analysts to include MAGACOIN alongside Ethereum’s established leaders, placing it in the conversation as one of 2025’s portfolio leaders. 2. Ether (ETH) No Ethereum ecosystem list is complete without ETH. As the network’s primary currency, ETH is essential for running decentralized applications, paying gas fees, and securing the protocol. Analysts expect ETH to remain the cornerstone of crypto portfolios thanks to its expanding role in DeFi, smart contracts, and institutional-grade ETFs. 3. Chainlink (LINK) Chainlink powers decentralized oracles, connecting smart contracts with real-world data across blockchains. With its…
