Ethereum’s 10th anniversary was marked by a significant milestone in terms of institutional crypto adoption, as cryptocurrency treasury firms surpassed $100 billion in collective investments on Thursday. Ethereum’s 10th birthday brought renewed corporate interest in Ether (ETH), which saw the 10 largest corporate crypto treasury firms amass over 1% of the total Ether supply since the beginning of June, according to a Tuesday report by Standard Chartered. The bank predicted that corporations will eventually hold 10% of the total Ether supply, which may see the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency surpass the bank’s year-end target price of $4,000 per Ether. Ether’s corporate…

00:00Were you gobsmacked by these numbers? It was a disappointing report, to be sure. But when I look at the data, we don’t try not to make too much of any one individual report. And so we look at the confluence of data. We look at the longer term picture. What we have is a labour market that is showing signs that we should be watching carefully, having the headline numbers come down. Makes sense to me, given what we’ve seen happening on the immigration side and the headline number on on unemployment, which is the most reliable indicator we…
00:00I want to start with this idea that you did a really solid performance despite the fact that LBO volumes were materially lower than last year and there was this expectation that deals were going to pick up in the second half because of trade certainty. Well, have we gotten that certainty to really kick start that type of corporate activity? There’s a misconception that alternative asset management is just driven solely by M & A and private equity volumes. But when you really zoom out, you say what? What is going on in the private markets? We are active…

When we speak of defense, we often think of metal, machinery, precision and power. Yet, in Türkiye – a land shaped by centuries of empire, conflict and culture – the story of defense has always had another layer. One where the forge doesn’t just produce weapons but rhythm, where military rigor gives rise to artistic vision. It is in this tradition that Aselsan, Türkiye’s leading defense and electronics company, now steps forward with a strikingly original celebration of its 50th anniversary. This is not a military parade, nor a corporate retrospective. It is a global art project, curated by Beste…
Anthony Albanese’s recent visit to Chengdu’s panda breeding base showed the enduring power of China’s panda diplomacy. China has been sending pandas to other countries, sometimes for obviously political reasons, since the 1940s. The term “panda diplomacy” became widespread when China gifted two pandas to the United States on Richard Nixon’s 1972 visit. In a new paper published in The Pacific Review, we explain the importance of panda diplomacy for the Chinese state. This importance persists during times of high political tension between China and other countries that host pandas, such as the United States. And it persists despite growing…
China’s already vast infrastructure programme has entered a new phase as building work starts on the Motuo hydropower project. The dam will consist of five cascade hydropower stations arranged from upstream to downstream and, once completed, will be the world’s largest source of hydroelectric power. It will be four times larger than China’s previous signature hydropower project, the Three Gorges Dam, which spans the Yangtze River in central China. The Chinese premier, Li Qiang, has described the proposed mega dam as the “project of the century.” In several ways, Li’s description is apt. The vast scale of the project is…
An Arkansas couple killed Saturday while they were hiking in a state park with their two young daughters were stabbed to death in what appears to have been a random attack, authorities said Thursday.

She then “returned to help her husband,” authorities said at a news conference. Andrew James McGann, a teacher who had moved to Arkansas from Oklahoma, was arrested Wednesday at a barbershop in Springdale, Arkansas, after a dayslong manhunt and…
