BlockDAG Presale Hits $150M Mark Raising $20M in 48Hrs; Ethereum Price and Cardano’s ADA Poised for Breakout

The Dow rocketed to a fresh record Friday, extending a post-election US equity rally while the euro retreated against the dollar following weak eurozone data. The blue-chip index piled on one percent to end the day at 44,296.51, narrowly overtaking a record set earlier this month. Major American indices have been at or near record territory since the US election, with investors betting that President-elect Donald Trump's program of tax cuts and regulatory scale-back would more than offset the drag from expected tariff increases. "The trading most of this week has been influenced by the growth agenda," said Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Cresset Capital Management. Market watchers have been cheered this week by a broadening of the rally beyond the tech names that dominated earlier in the year. The dollar also continued to strengthen, reflecting less certainty about additional Federal Reserve interest rate cuts and the US currency's status as a haven asset amid escalating tensions in the Russia-Ukraine war. The euro was also battered by a closely watched survey showing contractions in November business activity in the eurozone. The HCOB Flash Eurozone purchasing managers' index (PMI) published by S&P Global dropped to 48.1 compared to 50.0 in October, the most marked rate of contraction in 10 months. Any reading above 50 indicates growth, while a figure below 50 shows contraction. "Things could hardly have turned out much worse," said Cyrus de la Rubia, chief economist at Hamburg Commercial Bank. "The eurozone's manufacturing sector is sinking deeper into recession, and now the services sector is starting to struggle after two months of marginal growth." But as the euro fell both Paris and Frankfurt stocks managed to recover their losses and advance. "The eurozone data has increased the chance of more rate cuts from the ECB next year," said Kathleen Brooks, research director at XTB, as well a cut of 50 basis points next month. "Investors have been jolted into recalibrating interest rate expectations on the back of this bleak economic news," she added. London managed to gain 1.4 percent despite data showing that retail sales figures for October undershot forecasts, as the pound fell against the dollar. In Asia, Tokyo climbed as the government prepared to announce a $140 billion stimulus package to kickstart the country's stuttering economy. However, Hong Kong and Shanghai sank on a sell-off in tech firms caused by weak earnings from firms including Temu-owner PDD Holdings and internet giant Baidu. Bitcoin set a new record high above $99,500 Friday, before easing back slightly. The leading digital currency is expected to soon burst through $100,000 as investors grow increasingly hopeful that Trump will pass measures to deregulate the crypto sector. Bitcoin has soared more than 40 percent since the Republican's election victory this month and has more than doubled since the turn of the year. The recent surge has also been "driven by news that Trump could set up an official crypto department that would sit in the heart of US government," said XTB's Brooks.

Even before Election Day, environmental groups were suggesting ways that the Biden administration could protect the president’s climate agenda from an incoming president who has vowed to increase fossil fuel production and repeal major climate initiatives. Since then, Biden has taken many of those steps — backing a proposal to curtail public financing for oil and gas projects around the globe, limiting oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge , protecting the endangered sage grouse and announcing tough new regulations banning or restricting the use of the chemicals trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene, which are linked to cancers and other severe health problems. But with just weeks to go before Donald Trump returns to the White House, vowing to slash regulations on the oil and gas industry and derail climate action, the Biden administration has still not addressed some of the most important policies that otherwise might not survive Trump’s second term. “There’s a lot that Biden can still do in his remaining six weeks in office to stop the expansion of fossil fuels and send a powerful signal to distance himself from the incoming Trump administration and its fossil fuel cronies,” said Collin Rees, U.S. program manager of the climate nonprofit Oil Change International. The administration recently released a long-awaited study on the economic and environmental impacts of new liquefied natural gas exports — which concluded that “unfettered exports would drive up gas prices and lead to a huge increase in greenhouse gas emissions” — but it stopped short of recommending a ban on such exports. Trump has vowed to renew LNG exports on his “very first day back,” though the study’s conclusions could be used to challenge some of those project approvals. The Biden administration could deny liquefied natural gas export authorization permits for pending LNG terminals and even “claw back and deny” permits already issued by the administration, Rees said. He noted that if all pending projects are approved, U.S.-sourced liquefied natural gas emissions would exceed the European Union’s total greenhouse gas emissions. The Environmental Protection Agency could take several steps as well — including granting California a waiver to enforce its ban on the sale of new gasoline-powered cars and trucks in the state by 2035. The administration is expected to grant such a waiver to California and 11 other states, the New York Times reported. “Approving these waivers before Biden leaves office would create legal and procedural hurdles for any attempts to undo them, safeguarding long-term climate protections,” said Seth Nelson of the climate group Evergreen Action. “Finalizing waivers such as the Advanced Clean Cars II waiver is a vital step toward reducing climate pollution in the automotive sector and advancing the industry’s long-term decarbonization.” In addition, the EPA’s enforcement office is reportedly rushing to assess penalties and reach settlements with companies accused of environmental violations — on the assumption that the Trump administration will offer them leniency. In a statement to Capital & Main , a spokesperson for the Trump transition team said: “The Harris-Biden’s last-ditch effort to pass their green new climate scams, which the American people just roundly rejected in the election, will not deter President Trump’s Administration from using every tool to unleash America’s energy dominance.” The White House did not respond to Capital & Main ’s requests for comment. The Biden administration is also rushing to push out climate-related grants, recently announcing that it had awarded more than $100 billion for climate-related projects. Among the most recent awards are $256 million in Rural Energy for America Program grants and loans from the Agriculture Department, a $120 million contract to electrify some federal buildings in the D.C. region and $147 million to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to help assess the impact of climate change on fisheries. Biden officials told Reuters that they are on track to exceed their goal of getting more than 80% of the Inflation Reduction Act funding out the door by the end of his term next month. “When funds are obligated, they are protected,” an official told Reuters . “They are subject to the terms of the contract, so when those contracts are signed and executed, this becomes a matter of contract law more than a matter of politics.” The majority of the IRA’s grants and subsidies have gone to red states , and lawmakers in those states are vigorously pushing to keep them. Eighteen Republican House members wrote a letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson in August urging him not to scrap clean-energy tax credits in the law. And environmentalists are urging the administration to extend its conservation legacy — when he took office, Biden vowed to set aside 30% of the country’s lands and waters for conservation by 2030. Among the recommended designations: Chuckwalla National Monument, a massive desert region south of Joshua Tree National Park, and the Owyhee, a million-acre watershed in Oregon that is threatened by the ranching industry. . Climate scientists and environmental officials in the administration are also taking steps to protect themselves from a Trump team; from 2017-2020 the first Trump administration reversed more than 100 federal rules and shut down studies. A union that represents thousands of workers at the EPA recently secured a contract that includes protections for “scientific integrity” and is designed to “prevent inappropriate interference in scientific work” by allowing disputes to be heard by independent arbitrators instead of political appointees, among other measures. Marie Owens Powell, the president of the American Federation of Government Employees Council 238 and a gas station storage tank inspector for the EPA, told HuffPost ’s Dave Jamieson : “You can’t be forced to change data or the interpretation of the data, as long as it’s based in sound science.” Among other steps the Biden administration could take as it nears the final curtain, Rees said, would be to shut down the Dakota Access Pipeline, reject the GulfLink crude oil export terminal off the coast of Texas and release a “nationally determined commitment” that includes funding for climate mitigation and adaptation in Global South countries and a 80% reduction in domestic greenhouse gas emissions from 2005 levels by 2035.

The past two years have been absolutely incredible for investors in Nvidia ( NVDA -2.09% ) as shares of the semiconductor giant more than doubled in both 2023 and 2024, rising 860% since the beginning of last year thanks to the effects that artificial intelligence (AI) has had on the company's revenue and earnings. In December 2023, I discussed the reasons shares of Nvidia could double in 2024 . These included the robust demand for its graphics processing units (GPUs) for AI model training and inference, and the steps being taken by its manufacturing partner, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE: TSM) , to ramp up supply. In this article, I will look at Nvidia's catalysts for 2025 and check why this high-flying chipmaker could double in value once again in the new year. Solid demand and improving supply are going to be tailwinds The company's latest generation of GPUs built on its Blackwell architecture will be the biggest growth driver in 2025. Management said on its November earnings conference call that these chips are in full production and are being shipped to customers. Blackwell-related revenue for the current quarter should exceed expectations thanks to a strengthening supply chain. The company also said that the demand is well above supply. This bodes well for Nvidia going into the new year since TSMC says it will increase the production capacity of advanced AI chips significantly in 2025. Market researcher IDC projects that TSMC is on track to double its chip-on-wafer-on-substrate (CoWoS) advanced packaging capacity to 660,000 wafers to fulfill demand from Nvidia and other AI chipmakers. Nvidia reportedly cornered 60% of TSMC's CoWoS capacity for 2025, so it should be able to substantially increase the output of its Blackwell processors. In October 2024, Morgan Stanley analysts said that Blackwell GPUs are sold out for the next 12 months (according to a report on the website Tom's Hardware). That waiting time is likely to come down based on TSMC's outlook, allowing Nvidia to satisfy more orders and deliver a big bump in data center revenue. The company is expected to ship between 60,000 to 70,000 Blackwell B200 server systems in 2025, according to Morgan Stanley. Each system is expected to cost between $2 million and $3 million. That suggests its Blackwell systems could help generate somewhere between $120 billion to $210 billion next year, or $165 billion at the midpoint. Analysts expect Nvidia to hit $195 billion in revenue in fiscal 2026 (which will coincide with 11 months of calendar 2025), an increase of 51% from the current fiscal year's projected revenue of $129 billion. However, the potential revenue from Blackwell sales and the fact that Nvidia will continue to sell its previous-generation Hopper chips indicate that it could easily exceed Wall Street's growth expectations, and that could set the stage for the stock to double. Why this high-flying AI stock may double in 2025 Analysts expect Nvidia's earnings to increase 50% in the next fiscal year to an average of $4.43 per share, higher than the 12% growth that the S&P 500 index is expected to deliver. Investors should note that this average estimate for Nvidia has headed significantly higher in the past three months, rising from $3.99 per share 90 days ago and $4.03 per share 60 days ago. The high earnings estimate from the various analysts covering Nvidia for next year stands at $6.11. The potential jump in Nvidia's revenue and its impressive pricing power in the AI chip market could allow it to deliver stronger growth than analysts' expectations in 2025. Assuming Nvidia manages to clock $5 per share in earnings next year and trades at 55 times earnings at that time (in line with its trailing earnings multiple), its stock price could hit $275. That would be nearly double the current level. The reason I anticipate Nvidia will maintain its rich valuation after a year is because the market could reward it with a premium multiple thanks to the company's potential of outpacing the S&P 500's earnings growth by a significant margin. As such, investors would do well to continue holding Nvidia in their portfolios -- this AI stock's impressive growth could continue in the new year.The Raptors' cheat code on defence returns with losing skid almost double digits

Sitting at his desk in an isolated compound north of Bucharest, presidential front-runner and far-right populist Calin Georgescu says Romania’s Western alliances remain secure providing they “serve the sovereignty of the country and nothing else.” Georgescu unexpectedly topped the polls in the first round of the Romanian presidential vote on Nov. 24, despite being a huge outsider, plunging the European Union and NATO country into unprecedented turmoil. On Sunday, he will face reformist Elena Lasconi of the Save Romania Union party in a final vote. “I am interested in us being a sovereign and self-sufficient power,” the 62-year-old independent candidate told The Associated Press on Wednesday. “Freedom and independence come from the ability to finance yourself, not from being financed by others.” His vision for his country’s future lies in a series of Romania-first policies in a push to become self-reliant in areas such as energy, food, and water. Other key issues he wants to address if he wins the presidency, he said, span tackling high poverty rates, organized crime, and drug use in schools. “Our children are dying from drug use,” he said. “It’s unimaginable.” Georgescu is also a self-professed Donald Trump supporter and says the incoming U.S. president “knows what he wants, he loves his people, he put America first, just like I put Romania first ... we have the same ideology.” His success has left Western allies on edge. In the past, Georgescu — who declared zero campaign spending — praised Russian President Vladimir Putin as “a man who loves his country” and called Ukraine “an invented state.” Still, he claims not to be pro-Russian. He has also courted controversy for describing Romanian fascist and nationalist leaders from the 1930s and 1940s as national heroes. He denies having any connection to extremist organizations and says the quotes were miss represented. “I am only for God and my country,” he said. “Period.” Once a member of Romania’s far-right Alliance for the Unity of Romanians, Georgescu left the party in 2022 after being accused by colleagues of being Russia-friendly and critical of NATO. Romania has played a key role in the U.S.-led military alliance since Russia fully invaded neighboring Ukraine nearly three years ago. Observers wonder how a Georgescu presidency could affect NATO unity. “NATO is a defensive organization, but as long as it remains defensive, everything is fine,” the presidential hopeful said. “We will evaluate and see what is to Romania’s advantage ... Everything, no matter what, must benefit the Romanian people," referring to two NATO bases in Romania. On the war in Ukraine, “it’s a very difficult and grave situation," he said. "And my main position is a strategy of peace. Peace with everyone, regardless of who they are.” But Lasconi, his opponent in Sunday’s runoff, has cast Georgescu as a threat to democracy and national security who is not fit for high office. “Let us be very clear, Calin Georgescu is an open admirer of Vladimir Putin. He is openly against NATO and the European Union,” she said a day after the first vote. “He is for Romania’s isolation, which he calls neutrality." She also added that "without NATO we are at the mercy of Russia.” His past controversial remarks are wide-ranging and often veer in conspiracy, like his questioning of vaccine safety or calling climate change a “business scam,” or that “feminism is an absolute mess.” Georgescu holds a doctorate in pedology, a branch of soil science, and held different positions in Romania’s environment ministry in the 1990s. Between 1999 and 2012, he was a representative for Romania on the national committee of the United Nations Environment Program. But he remained a little-known entity until just weeks ago. Many observers attributed his success to his TikTok account, which now has 5.8 million likes and 531,000 followers. But some experts suspect Georgescu’s online following was artificially inflated while Romania’s top security body alleged he was given preferential treatment by TikTok over other candidates. Asked whether he believes the Chinese-owned platform TikTok can pose a threat to democracy, he said: “The most important existing function for promoting free speech and freedom of expression is social media.” In his downtime, he says he enjoys listening to classical composers, such as 19th-century composer Pyotr Tchaikovsky and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and is a big fan of the Irish singer Enya. He holds black belts in judo and karate and said he would make sports investment a top priority “because otherwise, you can’t have a healthy nation.” Romania’s political class, he said, has “constantly shown an inferiority complex” toward the West and vowed to change the dynamic. “Everything I do and will do will be from a negotiation standpoint, in the sense that Romania will stand tall and not on its knees,” he said.Live updates of the second test between New Zealand and England at the Basin Reserve in Wellington. The Black Caps won the toss and opted to bowl first. Both sides were unchanged after England’s eight-wicket win in the first test. Matt Henry nicked out Ben Duckett in the fourth over of the morning. The Black Caps’ team meetings must be brief affairs based on all the topics that apparently go unmentioned. Tom Latham’s side will remain unchanged for the second cricket test against England, starting on Friday at the Basin Reserve, as the hosts opted for a typically steady approach despite last week’s eight-wicket loss at Hagley Oval. Poor fielding and unconvincing batting left New Zealand trailing 1-0 in the series, the same scoreline that greeted these teams on their last trip to Wellington. It was then, in February 2023, the Black Caps became the third team in history to win a match after being asked to follow-on, a one-run margin making for a test no observer would ever forget. It’s also a test no home player had discussed this week, with Latham disappointing a narrative-chasing press pack by pointing to the differences in teams 22 months later. Indeed, England will have five new faces – including an entirely new bowling group – while the home side have selected four – with only Matt Henry and Tim Southee returning from their attack. Southee’s place could have been under threat after the veteran had been the least effective of the seam quartet in Christchurch. But despite spinning allrounder Mitchell Santner joining the squad, Latham said Southee’s potential omission was never raised. Instead, Southee will play the penultimate match in what will end a 107-test career, needing five sixes to reach 100 and a much unlikelier 13 wickets to finish with 400. Test rookie Nathan Smith loomed as the odd man out had conditions led the Black Caps to believe the Basin pitch would offer turn, a prospect discounted by Latham when confirming a “fantastic” Smith would play at his home ground. Spinners Nathan Lyon and Glenn Phillips did enjoy success when Australia won at the venue in March, but that came in warmer and drier weather at the end of the home summer. “The wicket took a little bit of spin, which surprised us,” Latham said. “But going by the games here [this season], the Wellington first-class games, I think the balance that we’ve gone with is the right balance for this for this wicket. “We obviously have some spin options in that top seven anyway. We think it’s the right fit.” Phillips was set to remain at No 7, despite the allrounder having in the last three months been left stranded on 49 not out in Galle, 48no in Pune and 58no in the first test. Latham said then that no discussions had occurred about an elevation ahead of Tom Blundell to No 6, with the wicketkeeper now averaging 13.5 in 14 tests since last March. Tom Blundell has been returning quickly to the pavilion in recent tests. Photo / Photosport That barren run began following Blundell’s pivotal 90 in the improbable revival against England, an innings that lifted his average to 55.2 in six tests at the Basin Reserve. “He’s another guy that’s playing at home in front of his home crowd – home ground, which he’s familiar with – so I know he’ll be looking forward to getting another opportunity,” Latham said. “We fully back Tom in terms of his ability to score runs and do a good job behind the stumps. We know what a quality player he is. “Cricket is a funny game – you’re only one innings away from being back in form. We’re certainly right in behind Tom; we know the important role that he plays in the side, especially with his keeping as well.” An unchanged England, conversely, will again play without a specialist wicketkeeper, after Ollie Pope took the gloves and moved from No 3 to No 6 to replace the injured Jordan Cox in Christchurch. That switch was out of necessity; this time, with Ollie Robinson having flown out to join the squad, it’s by choice. And it’s a choice the Black Caps could feasibly make if Will Young were to open and either Latham or Devon Conway shifted down the order. Young has never been at his best opening – averaging 22.8 in 12 tests and 43.9 in seven batting further down. Chances are, an alteration of such significance was never discussed.

(NASDAQ:NTLA)INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — There's more than just school pride and bragging rights to all that bellyaching over who might be in and who might be out of college football 's first 12-team playoff. Try the more than $115 million that will be spread across the conferences at the end of the season, all depending on who gets in and which teams go the farthest. According to the College Football Playoff website , the 12 teams simply making the bracket earn their conferences $4 million each. Another $4 million goes to conferences whose teams get into the quarterfinals. Then, there's $6 million more for teams that make the semifinals and another $6 million for those who play for the title. Most of this bonanza comes courtesy of ESPN, which is forking over $1.3 billion a year to televise the new postseason. A lot of that money is already earmarked — more goes to the Big Ten and Southeastern Conference than the Big 12 or Atlantic Coast — but a lot is up for grabs in the 11 games that will play out between the opening round on Dec. 20 and the final on Jan. 20. In all, the teams that make the title game will bring $20 million to their conferences, all of which distribute that money, along with billions in TV revenue and other sources, in different ways. In fiscal 2022-23, the Big Ten, for instance, reported revenue of nearly $880 million and distributed about $60.5 million to most of its members. The massive stakes might help explain the unabashed lobbying coming from some corners of the football world, as the tension grows in advance of Sunday's final rankings, which will set the bracket. Earlier this week, Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark lit into the selection committee, which doesn't have a single team higher than 15 in the rankings. That does two things: It positions the Big 12 as a one-bid league, and also threatens to makes its champion — either Arizona State or Iowa State — the fifth-best among conference titlists that get automatic bids. Only the top four of those get byes, which could cost the Big 12 a spot in the quarterfinals — or $4 million. “The committee continues to show time and time again that they are paying attention to logos versus resumes,” Yormark said this week, while slamming the idea of teams with two losses in his conference being ranked worse than teams with three in the SEC. The ACC is also staring at a one-bid season with only No. 8 SMU inside the cut line of this week's projected bracket. Miami's loss last week all but bumped the Hurricanes out of the playoffs, a snub that ACC commissioner Jim Phillips said left him “incredibly shocked and disappointed." “As we look ahead to the final rankings, we hope the committee will reconsider and put a deserving Miami in the field," Phillips said in a statement. The lobbying and bickering filters down to the campuses that feel the impact. And, of course, to social media. One of the most entertaining episodes came earlier this week when athletic directors at Iowa State and SMU went back and forth about whose team was more deserving.
