- Asian shares are mixed with tech stocks volatile , and oil falls on Trump Russian sanctions waiver
Asian shares were mixed on Monday as volatility in technology stocks persisted, while U.S. futures edged higher ahead of a week of corporate earnings. Oil fell more than 1% after President Donald Trump waived sweeping sanctions on Russia, including on its energy sector, a move likely to boost Russian energy exports. South Korea’s Kospi rose 1.1% to 5,729.58, but it is still down more than 18% over the past month and well below the 9,000 level it crossed in June. Japan’s Nikkei 225 lost 0.8%, while China’s Shanghai Composite gained 0.2% to 3,722.20 after the economy grew 4.5% in the July-September quarter, and Indonesia’s index fell another 5% to its lowest since 2020 after an MSCI warning about a possible downgrade from “emerging market” status. Brent crude fell 1.8% to $107.86 a barrel and U.S. crude dropped 1.6% to $97.43, though prices remain elevated compared with before the Iran war, with supply risks in the Strait of Hormuz still high.

Oil fell more than 1% after Trump waived sweeping Russia sanctions, with Brent down 1.8% to $107.86 a barrel. Wall Street had closed lower Friday, with the S&P 500 down 1.1% and the Nasdaq sinking 2.1%. Oil remains elevated compared with levels before the Iran war, with Middle East supply risks still adding upward pressure.

- BingX, YouHodler added to ESMA MiCA register in latest update
ESMA's latest MiCA register update added nine crypto-asset service providers (CASPs), bringing the total to 375 unique providers, including BingX's Austrian entity MEGE zweite and the Italian subsidiary of YouHodler. Other additions were Spain's Prakma Markets, Openbank Deutschland (a unit of Banco Santander) and two German cooperative lenders, while Denmark's Penning Financial Services is no longer listed. The EMT register stayed at 50 entries for 25 unique entities, the ART register remained empty, and the non-compliant NCASP register rose by five entries to 178. BingX's EU CEO Daniel Lai said the authorization lets the company operate under a clear regulatory framework as it prepares to launch regulated services across the European Economic Area.
- Zcash Developer Zakura Proposes Fix to Stop Quantum Computers Linking Shielded Swaps
Zcash full node developer Zakura has proposed “one-time” viewing keys to stop a future quantum computer from linking a user's shielded Zcash payments. The biggest risk is swaps through NEAR Intents, where each swap out of ZEC posts one of the user's shielded addresses to NEAR's public chain as a refund address, and around $600 million to $700 million had flowed through that route by May, according to Zcash Open Development Lab CEO Josh Swihart. The fix derives a separate incoming viewing key for each published address while leaving the spending key untouched, so a quantum attacker who breaks one address would only see payments to that address. The approach needs no network upgrade, and wallets built on Zakura's open-source libraries, such as Vizor, can add it in the coming weeks, with hardware wallets to follow. At the time of reporting, ZEC traded at $1,165, up 3.6% on the day.
- JPMorgan's JPM Coin, representing dollar deposits, is coming to Ethereum: Bloomberg
JPMorgan will make JPM Coin, a token representing its dollar deposits, available to institutional clients on Ethereum, according to Bloomberg. The bank says Ethereum's liquidity makes it attractive to crypto companies seeking blockchain payments and to financial firms settling trades or backing tokenized assets. The move extends JPMorgan's blockchain work beyond Base and its private Kinexys network, which processes more than $7 billion daily. The bank did not say when the token will go live on Ethereum. Meanwhile, JPMorgan is among US banks planning a shared tokenized deposit network, but it was not on Swift's list of 17 banks preparing live transactions on its blockchain ledger in July.
- Robot factories and hypersonic missiles: JPMorgan Chase’s first $5 billion of defense investments
JPMorgan Chase said it has made $5 billion in startup investments in the first year of its U.S. security and resiliency initiative, a faster pace than expected. The bank had pledged $10 billion into startups over a decade and may expand the program beyond that amount, according to co-president Doug Petno. Among the disclosed stakes, JPMorgan has taken direct positions in Hadrian, which builds automated factories making parts for defense, aerospace and maritime companies, and Castelion, maker of the relatively low-cost hypersonic missile Blackbeard. The bank helped lead a $1.4 billion funding round for Hadrian and was involved in a $1 billion round for Castelion. The direct equity stakes mark a departure from JPMorgan's usual role as a lender and advisor.
- One Year In, JPMorganChase's Security and Resiliency Initiative Is Helping to Strengthen Industries Critical to Long-Term Economic Growth
One year after launching its $1.5 trillion Security and Resiliency Initiative (SRI), JPMorganChase said it has deployed $5 billion in equity investments through its Strategic Investment Group, half of its initial $10 billion SRI allocation. The firm has financed and facilitated more than $230 billion in transactions across SRI's focus areas, including supply chains and advanced manufacturing, defense and aerospace, energy, frontier technologies, and pharma and healthtech. The Strategic Investment Group, led by Todd Combs, invests in venture, growth and later-stage companies, while a team of more than 35 SRI professionals has expanded the initiative to Europe and Canada. Nearly one-third of SRI-related activity in the past year occurred outside the United States, as many critical technologies and supply chains cross borders. Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon said strong economies and national security require investment in infrastructure, manufacturing, energy, defense and innovation.
