Jonah Tong May Help The Mets’ Rotation, But Who Can Rescue The Bullpen?

Jonah Tong May Help The Mets’ Rotation, But Who Can Rescue The Bullpen?

The post Jonah Tong May Help The Mets’ Rotation, But Who Can Rescue The Bullpen? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. NEW YORK, NEW YORK – AUGUST 15: Ryan Helsley #56 of the New York Mets hands the ball to manager Carlos Mendoza #64 as he is removed from a game against the Seattle Mariners in the seventh inning at Citi Field on August 15, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images) Getty Images There was no rain in the forecast at Citi Field Tuesday afternoon, yet blue skies with harmless white clouds were surrounded by dark clouds approaching from both directions above the the scoreboards touting the imminent Mets-Phillies matchup. There has rarely been a more symbolic baseball sky for state of the Mets, who sandwiched a stormy meltdown by their bullpen in between the sunshine-filled announcement of Jonah Tong’s imminent promotion and Edwin Diaz getting five dominant outs before Brandon Nimmo’s walk-off hit in the ninth gave them a 6-5 win. To be fair, the same thing about the symbolic baseball sky could be said of the Phillies — who looked ready to end the NL East race this week before losing Monday and Tuesday as their Citi Field losing streak hit nine games — and everyone else in Major League Baseball. But no contender symbolizes the razor-thin line between World Series hopeful and complete disaster quite like the Mets, who had the best record in baseball through June 12 and possess the sixth-worst record since even after winning seven of their last 10 games. The much-needed surge began Aug. 16, when Nolan McLean provided a boost to a flailing rotation by tossing 5 1/3 scoreless innings in his big league debut and earning the victory in a 3-1 win over the Mariners. McLean was even better last Friday, when he went seven innings while beating the Braves. He is the only pitcher other than David…

Your Most Important Retail Hire Might Be Obsolete In Five Years

Your Most Important Retail Hire Might Be Obsolete In Five Years

The post Your Most Important Retail Hire Might Be Obsolete In Five Years appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Do you have what it takes? getty Factories once had “chief electricity officers.” The title sounds quaint today, but when manufacturing shifted from steam power to electricity in the early 20th century, companies needed leaders who could redesign workflows and operations for a new power source. Only once electricity became embedded everywhere did the role fade. Retail is now at the same kind of turning point. Artificial intelligence is not a feature or a tactic—it is a transformative capability that will redefine merchandising, supply chains and most importantly how customers discovery, choose, and buy products. And just as brands once relied on Chief Digital Officers to steer them into the e-commerce era, today they need Chief AI Officers (CAIOs) to cut through inertia and embed AI where it matters. From Algorithms to Strategy The early signal came more than a decade ago from Stitch Fix. In 2012, the subscription apparel company appointed Eric Colson as Chief Algorithms Officer from Netflix. His job wasn’t about back-office IT; it was about making algorithms core to the business model. Recommendations, styling, and inventory all ran through machine learning. At the time, it seemed unusual, now it seems prescient. By 2019, heritage brands were catching on. Levi Strauss & Co. named Katia Walsh as SVP and Chief Strategy and AI Officer, a role reporting to the CEO. Levi’s was explicit: AI was not just a technical skill, but a strategic driver of growth and efficiency. Walsh’s remit covered data platforms, digital transformation, and embedding AI into marketing, merchandising, and operations. These early moves framed AI as something bigger than an engineering tool. They positioned it as a change agent for the enterprise. The New Wave of CAIOs Uber Head of Driver Product Daniel Danker addresses the audience during an Uber products launch event in…

Nvidia Earnings Loom Large, BTC Traders Eye Correlation

Nvidia Earnings Loom Large, BTC Traders Eye Correlation

The post Nvidia Earnings Loom Large, BTC Traders Eye Correlation appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The largest company in the world by market cap at $4.4 trilion, Nvidia (NVDA) reports earnings after the U.S. market close on Wednesday. Data from Bitcoindata21 on X shows that Nvidia earnings have historically correlated with a positive Bitcoin’s performance. Over the last 10 earnings reports since early 2023, when the current bull market began, bitcoin has posted positive price action following Nvidia results in 7 out of 10 instances. For the quarter, analysts expect Nvidia to report adjusted earnings per share of $1.01 on revenue of $46.2 billion. According to The Kobeissi Letter, the options market is pricing in a 6.1% post-earnings implied move in Nvidia. That translates to a potential swing of roughly $270 billion in market capitalization. It sounds large, but this would be the smallest implied swing since May 2023. Shares of Nvidia are up 30% year to date and 41% over the past year. It’s modestly lower in early Wednesday trading ahead of the quarterly results. Source: https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2025/08/27/nvidia-earnings-loom-large-with-bitcoin-traders-eyeying-correlation

Katherine convinces Jackie to return to Colorado, and she’s now “determined to make amends with Alex and set boundaries with Cole while finding her place within the Walter family,” the synopsis reads.

BAY Miner Turns BTC, ETH, and XRP into Cash-Flowing Assets

BAY Miner Turns BTC, ETH, and XRP into Cash-Flowing Assets

The post BAY Miner Turns BTC, ETH, and XRP into Cash-Flowing Assets appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. [London] August 2025—BAY Miner, a global crypto-finance innovation platform, today announced the official launch of a new asset management solution: the Idle Coins Activation Program. Designed specifically for holders of major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Ripple (XRP), this innovative tool helps convert long-term idle digital assets into sustainable cash flow, improving portfolio utilization. Industry insiders believe this initiative will not only accelerate the financialization of cryptocurrencies but also create new profit models for investors. As global demand for digital asset allocation continues to grow, traditional “buy and hold” (HODL) strategies are increasingly facing challenges with insufficient liquidity. BAY Miner leverages big data analysis and a low-risk, return-based strategy to ensure that idle BTC, ETH, and XRP no longer remain dormant in user wallets, but instead generate a steady stream of returns. This model not only ensures asset security but also provides holders with stable and diversified cash flow channels, and is considered a crucial tool for managing market fluctuations and optimizing long-term asset allocation. The Concept of Idle Coins Idle coins are cryptocurrencies that have been storing value for the long-term without being traded, staked, or lent. There are millions in BTC, ETH, and XRP just sitting and waiting. Remember that cryptocurrency prices do fluctuate and waiting usually leads to missed opportunities. BAY Miner makes this possible. Holders can convert these passive, idle coins into active, recurring revenue sources, in a secure and fully managed method through cloud mining. Why BAY Miner Is Different Instead of the high costs of equipment and electricity and cooling like conventional mining, BAY Miner takes the “hardware-free, mobile-first” approach where anyone can earn from crypto anywhere. The platform is built to be accessible, secure, and transparent, providing users with a true alternative in maximizing their digital assets. Key features include:…

CFTC Adopts Nasdaq’s Surveillance to Modernize Crypto Oversight

CFTC Adopts Nasdaq’s Surveillance to Modernize Crypto Oversight

The post CFTC Adopts Nasdaq’s Surveillance to Modernize Crypto Oversight appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Points: CFTC partners with Nasdaq for advanced crypto market surveillance. Strengthens fraud and abuse detection with new technology. Signals CFTC’s readiness for expanding digital asset oversight. The CFTC announced the adoption of Nasdaq’s surveillance program to enhance oversight of digital assets, aiming to prevent fraud and manipulation, effective August 27, 2025. This upgrade signifies a shift in regulatory capabilities, potentially altering market dynamics as the CFTC prepares to manage growing digital asset activities with advanced tools. CFTC Enhances Regulatory Tools with Nasdaq Partnership The CFTC’s collaboration with Nasdaq introduces real-time analytics and automated alerts, providing comprehensive cross-market analysis. By modernizing its antiquated systems, the CFTC strengthens its regulatory capabilities. Caroline D. Pham, Acting Chairwoman, confirmed the agency’s focus on improving oversight through advanced technology, emphasizing: With these changes, the CFTC intends to better oversee cryptocurrency futures, options, and prediction markets, addressing Congress’s possible legislative expansions. This heightened oversight aims to effectively detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and manipulation within the digital asset landscape, particularly for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other altcoin derivatives. Community and industry reactions are evolving, with institutional stakeholders watching the regulatory shift closely. Tal Cohen, Nasdaq President, voiced support for this enhancement, praising the regulatory upgrade’s potential to secure the market. Major DeFi platforms are yet to respond formally, indicating a period of observation and adjustment as the new surveillance measures take effect. Bitcoin Market Stability Amid Regulatory Shifts Did you know? The SEC has previously required surveillance-sharing agreements for Bitcoin ETFs, setting a precedent for regulatory upgrades similar to the CFTC’s current partnership with Nasdaq. Bitcoin (BTC), currently trading at $112,333.85, holds a market cap of $2.24 trillion, representing 57.34% dominance in the market (CoinMarketCap).

A Quarter of UK Retirement Savers Open to Crypto

A Quarter of UK Retirement Savers Open to Crypto

The post A Quarter of UK Retirement Savers Open to Crypto appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A quarter of British adults polled said they’re open to crypto forming part of their retirement plans, suggesting that crypto could claim a larger share of the UK’s multitrillion-dollar pension fund market. UK insurance company Aviva said on Tuesday that its poll of 2,000 UK adults found 27% were open to crypto in their retirement funds, with just over 40% of those open to crypto saying they were motivated by the higher potential returns. The survey, which was conducted by Censuswide June 4-6, also found that 23% of all those polled said they would consider withdrawing part, or all, of their existing pension to invest in crypto. Crypto investments in UK retirement plans could see significantly more capital flow into the space, with over four in five UK adults holding pensions worth a total of 3.8 trillion British pounds ($5.12 trillion).  Still, UK adults have limited options for adding crypto to their retirement funds. The poll came as US President Donald Trump signed an executive order earlier this month permitting US 401(k) retirement plans to include Bitcoin (BTC) and other cryptocurrencies, opening access to more than $9 trillion in assets. Source: Cointelegraph A fifth of UK adults already dabbled in crypto Aviva said that around one in five surveyed, equivalent to about 11.6 million people, said they hold, or have held, crypto. About two-thirds said they still own crypto in some capacity. Nearly one-fifth of UK adults aged between 25 and 34 said they had already withdrawn pension funds to invest in crypto. Brits still concerned about crypto risks The respondents cited security risks, such as hacking and phishing attacks, and lack of regulation and protection of crypto as the biggest risk concerns at 41% and 37% respectively, while crypto volatility was flagged as the third-biggest worry at 30%.
