Semiconductor company ASML saw its shares dip on Wednesday morning after its China segment took a hit from new export bans. The equipment maker's China segment shrank as a percentage of net system sales. ASML stock is down over 5% at the time of writing. "Demand for chips is outpacing supply. In response, our customers are accelerating their capacity expansion plans for 2026 and beyond," said CEO Christophe Fouquet in the company's quarterly results release. In its latest guidance for Q2, ASML raised its 2026 net sales forecast to a range of $42.46 billion to $47.18 billion. That's up from a range of $40.12 billion and $46.02 billion previously forecasted.

Last week, a bipartisan group of U.S. lawmakers

proposed a bill that would cut off ASML's sales of DUV machines to Chinese chip companies, thereby affecting its already shrinking sales there. That law still needs to work its way through the U.S. legislative process. While the Dutch chipmaker has never been allowed to sell EUV machines to China, it has long sold its lower-end deep ultraviolet, or DUV, chipmaking machines there. Therefore, China's ban cuts deeply into ASML's revenue, scaring off stock investors.

Chiliz Price Surges Following $CHZ’s MoU With Japanese Football Club


Chiliz recorded a slight gain over the past 24 hours, and rose 1.65% to trade at $0.0374. The move came in even as Bitcoin declined by 0.83% during the same period.

One of the primary reasons for the surge could be attributed to Chiliz’s MoU with Tokyo Verdy, which is one of Japan’s most decorated football clubs.

Chiliz Soars After its MoU with Japanese Football Club

Notably the trading volume for Chiliz has dropped sharply by around 36% over the past day. This suggests that the price increase lacked strong participation. Lower volume for a crypto often means weaker conviction among buyers. Consequently, the surge may struggle to hold without fresh demand entering the market.

From a technical standpoint, Chiliz remains under pressure. The crypto continues to trade below key moving averages, which implies a broader bearish structure. The recent gain has not changed this condition. It only represents a small bounce within a larger downtrend.

The immediate level to watch is the pivot support near $0.0355. At this level, it functioned as a short-term floor over the past few sessions. Holding above it could push the price towards the next resistance. The 7-day simple moving average, which is located around $0.0378, is the first target on the upside. But a fall below the $0.0355 level could add more losses. If that’s the case, the price may inch closer to its yearly low. This makes the current range crucial for short-term direction.

Market sentiment around Chiliz also remains neutral. Social or investor interest hasn’t changed much. In the absence of a strong narrative or catalyst, crypto price movements will probably be limited. The token continues to depend on global market conditions and technical factors.

US President Donald Trump said in a press huddle that he gets “no credit” for taking a $0 salary each year. He went ahead saying that he let go of millions of dollars by “waiving” his presidential salary. Trump claimed that he’s the only President to have done so, and no others waived their salaries despite being well-off and wealthy while holding the highest office of the land.“I waived it. I’m the only president that ever waived it,” said Trump. “We’ve had wealthy presidents before. In the history of our country, there’s never been a president that waved his salary. I’m the only schmuck. I get no credit for it,” he said. He made sure to emphasize that the salary is not a small amount, but a significant one. “It’s still a couple of million bucks. It’s not peanuts.”The salary of a US President is $400,000 a year, which eventually adds up to $1.6 million for a term of four years. Joe Biden’s salary during the previous term was $1.6 million. Barack Obama, who served for eight years, earned $3.2 million during his time in office.

Also, leading economist and gold proponent Peter Schiff said that Trump is making more money as President by taking a $0 salary.“Trump has made billions exploiting his power as president. Why would he need a salary? That’s peanuts,” said Schiff. “He gives up his tiny salary as a publicity stunt to create the false impression that he’s not in it for the

The full proposal is a three-phase plan designed to protect Bitcoin from a threat that has quietly grown more serious: the eventual ability of quantum computers to crack the cryptographic keys protecting early Bitcoin addresses.Satoshi’s Fortune At The Center Of It AllAbout 1.7 million BTC sits in old-style addresses known as P2PK — the kind used in Bitcoin’s earliest days. Those addresses expose public keys directly, making them vulnerable once quantum computing reaches sufficient power.Satoshi Nakamoto’s stash alone is valued at roughly $74 billion at current prices.

EMURGO CEO Praises Hoskinson, Says Midnight Completes Missing Layer in Cardano Architecture
EMURGO CEO Phillip Pon says the launch of Midnight delivers a foundational capability that completes an important missing layer in Cardano architecture. 


This aligns with Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson’s commentary that Midnight is designed to complement Cardano, not compete with it.

Key Points

EMURGO CEO Phillip Pon states that the launch of Midnight introduces capabilities missing from the Cardano ecosystem.

Midnight is a dedicated partner chain that integrates with Cardano, adding specialized privacy features.

Beyond the underlying blockchains, Pon explains that ADA and NIGHT are designed to work together to strengthen the ecosystem.

He also praises Charles Hoskinson, emphasizing that few founders show the same level of persistence in advancing their projects.

The Ethereum Foundation (EF) has unveiled an aggressive plan to help improve the security of apps across its mainnet. Dubbed the ‘Ethereum audit subsidy,’ the $1 million initiative brings over 20 security providers, alongside Nethermind, Areta, and Chainlink Labs.

Ethereum-based projects of all sizes will be able to access the program. According to the team, the program will enhance the broader Ethereum ecosystem security based on the principles of CROPS (censorship, resistance, open source, privacy, and security).  

Commenting on the program, Areta Market CEO Findlay Boothroyd, said 

A project that cannot defend itself puts every other guarantee at risk, and we designed this program alongside our partners to help close this gap.

The update follows a similar move by Solana Foundation’s STRIDE security program after the $285 million Drift breach. In other words, leading Layer 1 networks aren’t taking security for granted amid surging institutional interest in the sector.

CFTC probes oil futures trades tied to Trump's moves in Iran: Report



The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission is reportedly investigating suspicious oil trades that were placed ahead of certain announcements made by the Trump administration relating to the Iran war.

According to a Bloomberg report on Wednesday, the CFTC’s probe focuses on trading activity on CME Group’s NYMEX and the Intercontinental Exchange’s futures platforms.

The regulator is also requesting “Tag 50” identity data from exchanges to assist with the investigation. Tag 50 data is widely used for auditing and regulatory compliance checks.

The investigation into the futures trading platforms comes in parallel with the rising scrutiny of insider trading in prediction markets.

Bloomberg said the CFTC is reviewing at least two instances over a two-week period in which oil trading volumes surged shortly before the Trump administration made announcements related to the Iran war.

The first of those occurred on March 23, when billions of dollars in futures traded about 15 minutes before US President Donald Trump postponed plans to strike Iranian energy infrastructure.

The second instance occurred around two weeks later, on April 7, when Trump announced a two-week ceasefire on Iran, Bloomberg said.

The trading spikes contributed to falling oil prices and rising equity prices.

“There’s enormous appetite to pursue cases like this,” said Brian Young, a partner at law firm Jones Day who previously served as director of the CFTC’s enforcement division.
