Tech　　Ripple Opens New MEA Headquarters in Dubai DIFCRipple opened its new MEA headquarters inside the Dubai International Financial Centre DIFC.The expansion creates the capacity to double Ripples regional team to meet growing demand.Ripple became the first blockchain payments provider fully licensed by DFSA in March 2025.　　Ripple has opened a new regional headquarters for the Middle East and Africa inside the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), the company confirmed Wednesday, creating capacity to double the size of its local operations as demand for regulated blockchain payment infrastructure across the region continues to grow.　　The move marks a step up from Ripple‘s existing Dubai presence, which dates back to 2020 when the company first established its MEA base in the emirate.

Copper: High prices curb near‑term upside – Commerzbank

Finance　　Copper: High prices curb near‑term upside – Commerzbank　　Commerzbank‘s Thu Lan Nguyen highlights that Copper’s supply surplus has widened to about 300,000 tons early this year as production expanded while demand stagnated. February saw a notable demand drop with prices near USD 13,000 per ton. The bank argues that recent rapid price gains and elevated energy costs limit Coppers short‑term upside potential.　　Surplus and weak demand cap rally　　“Data from the monthly report now shows that in the first two months of this year, the supply surplus actually increased by more than 100,000 tons compared to the previous year, reaching approximately 300,000 tons.”　　“However, the trend shows that while demand rose slightly in January, February saw a significant decline. The high price level – with copper trading around USD 13,000 per ton, nearly 40% higher than in February of the previous year – likely played a role here.”　　“The rapid price recovery in recent weeks, coupled with ongoing uncertainty due to persistently high energy prices, does not bode well for future demand trends. Therefore, we view the further upside potential for copper as limited, at least in the short term.”

Gold edges higher as USD weakens, higher-for-longer rates limit upside

In the 4-hour chart, XAU/USD maintains a bearish near-term bias as price holds beneath a dense cluster of moving averages. The Relative Strength Index has edged above the 50 line to about 52, which hints at a modest improvement in momentum but not yet enough to dislodge the prevailing overhead supply from these key averages.　　On the topside, immediate resistance is defined first by the 50-period SMA at $4,684, closely followed by the 200-period SMA at $4,685, with the 100-period SMA near $4,731 reinforcing a broader supply zone if a recovery extends. On the downside, the next notable cushion emerges at the horizontal support around $4,500, where a break would likely reopen the last leg lower, while holding above this floor would keep scope for further consolidation beneath the moving-average ceiling.　　Gold FAQs　　Gold has played a key role in human‘s history as it has been widely used as a store of value and medium of exchange. Currently, apart from its shine and usage for jewelry, the precious metal is widely seen as a safe-haven asset, meaning that it is considered a good investment during turbulent times. Gold is also widely seen as a hedge against inflation and against depreciating currencies as it

The agreement targets stablecoin-powered payments for millions of users while testing how decentralized infrastructure can integrate with traditional financial systems.　　With access to roughly 28 million customers, the initiative signals a significant step toward mainstream adoption of blockchain-based payments. Moreover, the collaboration reflects growing institutional confidence in high-speed networks like Solana despite ongoing market volatility.　　Expanding Stablecoin Payment Infrastructure　　Shinhan Card plans to develop real-world payment scenarios using Solanas test environment.
