  • European Central Bank keeps key interest rate on hold at 2.5%

    The European Central Bank held its deposit facility rate at 2.5% on Thursday, as expected, after a 25 basis point hike in September, even though euro zone headline inflation rose to 3.8% last month, the highest since September 2023. The Governing Council said rising energy prices pose upside risks to inflation and downside risks to growth, while underlying inflation and wages are broadly stable and financing conditions have tightened. Energy price inflation reached 18.8% amid Middle East turbulence. Deutsche Bank's Mark Wall said the policy path is harder to predict and expected one more hike to 2.75% in December, probably the end of the hiking cycle, while Christine Lagarde is still president. He added that the institution is bigger than any one person, but uncertainty remains about decisions next year after Lagarde's announced departure.

  • Tech stocks hit hard after Samsung, Fortinet, and ServiceNow miss earnings

    Samsung expects capital expenditure to rise 60% to $63 billion this year as it competes with SK Hynix and Micron, but its chip division operating income came in 2% below estimates and it is holding off on future shareholder payout plans until January. Fortinet's weak results hit cybersecurity stocks, and ServiceNow showed slowing bookings growth. A Bloomberg report said Marvell is in talks to buy Lumentum in a big deal, and Marvell shares fell sharply. The hosts said concerns over AI spending, financing costs, and Alphabet's business model are real, not just sentiment.

  • Private, fast USDT is coming to Bitcoin. Can it compete with Ethereum and Tron?

    Utexo, a Dubai-based blockchain startup, plans to bring Tether's USDT back to Bitcoin after a three-year hiatus through the RGB protocol, which keeps transaction data off-chain. The public launch is scheduled for Nov. 28, with Lightning Network support planned for Q1 2027. USDT first ran on Bitcoin in 2014 through the Omni protocol, but Tether halted issuance in August 2023 citing declining usage, and later led Utexo's $7.5 million seed round in March. With $300 billion of stablecoin supply already on networks such as Ethereum and Tron, co-founder Viktor Ihnatiuk says the Bitcoin version's advantages are speed and privacy. Utexo Mint locks USDT0 on Arbitrum before minting an equivalent amount of USDT on Bitcoin, so its security also depends on the mechanisms connecting the two networks.

  • Brazil’s Halloween eve crypto deadline brings more tricks than treats

    Brazil's crypto exchanges face a Friday deadline to apply for authorization under the framework introduced in November 2025 under the central bank BCB. Exchanges that apply on time can keep operating while their applications are reviewed, a process that can take up to two years, while companies that miss the deadline must stop providing services within 30 days. Lawyers say minimum capital requirements of 10.8 million reais ($2 million) to 37.2 million reais, plus audits and anti-money laundering controls, could make compliance unviable for smaller exchanges. Questions remain over how to identify self-custody wallets, the $100,000 limit on certain international transfers and reporting thresholds, and the BCB had not responded at publication.

  • DoorDash inks $17 billion deal to acquire Instacart

    DoorDash (DASH) is acquiring Instacart, which does business as Maplebear (CART), in a cash-and-stock deal worth $17 billion. DoorDash will pay $65 a share, a 26% premium to Instacart's closing price on October 22, when reports of the deal emerged. The deal would better position DoorDash to compete with Amazon's Whole Foods and Walmart by adding a major grocery delivery partner. DoorDash reported earnings and adjusted EBITDA that beat estimates, with marketplace gross order value up 36%, and its fourth-quarter forecast was described as in pretty good shape.
