  • Lloyds Banking Group подписала соглашение о приобретении Curve за около $155 млн.
  • Крупнейший внешний акционер выступил против сделки.

Британская банковская группа Lloyds Banking Group подписала соглашение о приобретении провайдера цифровых кошельков Curve. Об этом сообщает Sky News со ссылкой на источники, знакомые с деталями сделки.

Curve уже проинформировала своих инвесторов о заключении договора. По информации СМИ, стоимость покупки составляет примерно £120 млн (около $155 млн). В письме к акционерам компания отметила:

«Мы понимаем, что стоимость этой сделки не соответствует амбициям, которые мы все имели в отношении Curve, и мы разделяем разочарование некоторых из вас из-за такого результата».

Несмотря на это, совет директоров уверен, что сделка с Lloyds — «лучший путь вперед для кредиторов и акционеров компании», говорится в заявлении.

В Sky News отметили, что крупнейший внешний акционер Curve — венчурная фирма IDC Ventures — раскритиковал действия руководства при подготовке к сделке. Компания имеет 12% акций Curve и заявляет, что не соглашалась на продажу, говорится в сообщении.

Кроме того, IDC привлекла юридическую фирму Quinn Emanuel и заявила, что ожидает от совета директоров и потенциальных покупателей ответственного и прозрачного поведения, а в случае игнорирования этих обязательств готова принять все необходимые меры для защиты интересов акционеров.

Morgan Stanley: Gold Could Reach $5,000 by 2027

Morgan Stanley analysts forecast that gold could surpass $5,000 per ounce by next year, driven by strong momentum amid growing US debt risks. The metal has already shown a steady upward trend, gaining about 3.6% in the past week to reach $4,540 per ounce, with the overall bullish sentiment remaining intact despite some investor profit-taking. Key catalysts for the rise include actions by the US Treasury, which doubled its operations to support liquidity for 10- to 30-year government bonds from $2 billion to $4 billion per operation. This has weakened the US dollar and enhanced gold's appeal as a safe-haven asset. Central banks are also actively boosting their gold reserves, with China adding 60 tonnes and Poland increasing its holdings by 82 tonnes. The growing US national debt, which has exceeded $40 trillion, provides further support. Geopolitical tensions and potential sanctions against Iran are additional factors driving demand for gold as a protective asset. Analysts also expect the US Federal Reserve to maintain current interest rates throughout 2026, which should continue to bolster the bullish trend in the precious metals market.

Justin Sun Declares Victory, While WLF Claims Nothing Happened

The legal battle between Justin Sun and World Liberty Financial (WLF) centers on the issuer's authority to freeze user funds, raising significant questions for the stablecoin market. Sun claimed a "major victory" after a California federal court hearing, stating the court rejected WLF's push for private arbitration. WLF co-founder Zack Witkoff denied this, asserting no ruling was issued and that Sun's lawyers agreed certain claims must go to arbitration. Public court records show no decision posted for the August 20 hearing. The dispute began when WLF froze $45 million worth of US$1 stablecoins belonging to Sun after he declined a further $200 million investment offer. WLF cited security procedures and a token unlock agreement. With approximately $4 billion of the US$1 stablecoin in circulation, the case's outcome on freezing powers impacts a wide user base. Parallel lawsuits include a defamation case by WLF against Sun in Florida. The timing follows Sun's recent settlement with the SEC and his large investments in WLF and Trump-themed memecoins, which drew political scrutiny. Amid the litigation, WLF received preliminary conditional approval for a national trust bank charter. Its governance token, $WLFI, trades 87% below its peak. Regardless of the legal outcome, market uncertainty appears priced in.

The End of APK Freedom? No, Google's Restrictions Will Not Affect Everyone or Everywhere

Google is introducing new rules for installing third-party APK files, but the restrictions will only affect some users and won't completely block app installation from unofficial sources. The company is implementing an "Advanced Flow" mechanism to combat fraud. However, its application is limited geographically, technically, and in timing. The new requirements will first take effect in Brazil, Indonesia, Singapore, and Thailand starting September 30, 2026, with a global rollout planned for 2027. The Advanced Flow system only works on Google-certified devices with pre-installed Google Mobile Services (GMS). Chinese versions of Android, which legally lack full GMS, are unaffected. Even on global devices with GMS, custom ROMs and ADB installations remain unrestricted. For affected users, a specific protocol is established. This involves enabling Developer Options, confirming no external pressure, rebooting, and then waiting a 24-hour protection period before a biometric/PIN confirmation grants installation permission for 7 days or indefinitely. Google states this creates friction for mass users while preserving technical capabilities for informed choice. A data-driven perspective notes that Advanced Flow is delivered via Google Play Services, not the core Android OS, meaning Google could modify or disable it remotely. Critics, including F-Droid and the EFF, warn this could follow a historical pattern where initial "trusted installer" mechanisms gradually expanded platform control over user choice. The long-term impact will depend on practical application beyond the stated policy.
