EV Uptake is Undercutting Demand for Oil in Notable Markets

The global energy landscape is changing, and electric vehicles are at the center of this shift. As more countries embrace batteries and clean transport, the demand for oil is beginning to weaken. What once looked like a distant possibility is now visible in real numbers, especially in markets leading the electric vehicle transition. One of the clearest examples is Norway. Nearly all new cars sold there are electric, and this rapid adoption has already caused fuel consumption to fall. Between 2021 and 2024, gasoline and diesel use dropped by 12 percent. China, the world’s largest oil importer, is showing the…

France, Austria and Italy Push EU to Reform Crypto Regulations

France, Austria, and Italy are pushing the European Union to strengthen its cryptocurrency rules under the MiCA law. These countries are concerned that differences in how each EU nation applies the regulations could put investors at risk and give some crypto firms an unfair advantage. Since the MiCA law took effect in December 2024, countries have interpreted it in various ways. While some have strict rules, others have been more relaxed. This inconsistency allows certain crypto companies to operate in countries with weaker rules and then provide services across the EU, creating potential risks for investors and reducing trust in…

Michael Saylor Kickstarts Corporate Rush to Hold Bitcoin

Bitcoin has moved from being a niche asset to a major topic in global finance, and much of that change can be linked to Michael Saylor. In August 2020, Saylor, then the CEO of MicroStrategy, took a bold step that surprised many. He invested $250 million of the company’s cash reserves into Bitcoin. At the time, he argued that inflation and a weakening dollar made traditional cash reserves risky. This move turned out to be the spark that opened the door for corporations to start viewing Bitcoin as a serious treasury asset. After the first purchase, MicroStrategy did not stop.…

Senators Sanders, Warren Call on Leading Banks to Ramp Up Loans

Senator Elizabeth Warren and Senator Bernie Sanders have called out the country’s biggest banks, saying they are putting profits for shareholders and executives ahead of the needs of everyday Americans.

The criticism came after American banks announced in July that they would be increasing dividends and buying back billions of dollars’ worth of their own stock.
