Ukrainian President Zelensky: It is too early to draw conclusions based on todays discussions.Sources say that protests by contractors have disrupted access roads to the Escondida and Saldivar copper mines in Chile.On January 24th, according to foreign media reports, a core group of political parties in the European Union is demanding that EU banking and market regulators, while fulfilling their supervisory responsibilities in the financial sector, should take into account the EUs declining industrial competitiveness. This call comes as the EU is undertaking a comprehensive revision of its financial regulatory framework. A document shows that the European Peoples Party (EPP), the largest group in the European Parliament and a center-right bloc, stated that "to help the EU achieve its broader economic growth goals," the scope of responsibilities for regulators should be broadened to explicitly include competitiveness as a consideration. These requirements would apply to all institutions responsible for supervising the EUs banking, securities, and insurance sectors. The Christian Democratic Union (CDU), led by German Chancellor Merz, has also joined the call for reduced regulatory burdens. Merz stated frankly in a meeting with banking officials last year that current EU financial regulations are "too stringent."January 24th - According to foreign media reports, the Mexican government is reassessing its decision to continue oil shipments to Cuba due to rising concerns about potential US retaliation or increased diplomatic pressure. The government of Mexican President Sinbaum believes that continuing fuel supplies to Cuba could trigger retaliatory measures or diplomatic pressure from the United States. Cuba faced severe energy shortages and frequent power outages after Venezuelan crude oil exports to Cuba were disrupted. Subsequently, Mexico became one of Cubas major oil suppliers, which the Mexican government describes as humanitarian aid and says is in line with long-standing bilateral agreements. Although the specific scale of shipments is not transparent, these supplies have significantly improved Cubas ability to obtain fuel.Sources say Mexico is assessing whether to halt oil shipments to Cuba due to fears of U.S. retaliation.

According to researcher CryptoCompare, trade in cryptocurrency derivatives on centralized exchanges increased to $3.12 trillion in July, up 13% month over month, as cryptocurrency values begin to rebound from the recent market crisis.


According to CryptoCompare, the derivatives market now accounts for 69% of all crypto transactions, up from 66% in June, and helped drive total crypto volumes on exchanges to $4.51 trillion in July.


On July 29, derivatives exchanges transacted up to $245 billion, which is 9.7% greater than the $223 billion top daily high for June.


Spot cryptocurrency trade, however, dipped to $1.39 trillion in July, the lowest level since December 2020 and a monthly fall of 1.3%, according to CryptoCompare.


In May and June, the price of cryptocurrencies fell precipitously as investors fled riskier investments due to concerns about soaring inflation and Federal Reserve interest rate rises. Several cryptocurrency organizations have slashed staff after a significant pair of tokens collapsed, and other cryptocurrency lenders have frozen client withdrawals.


With bitcoin rising 17% in July, prices have somewhat recovered. It is still a long way from its record high of $69,000 in November, which it reached at roughly $24,300.


Since there is no U.S. Federal Reserve meeting in August, CryptoCompare said, "the jump in futures trading volume signals an increase in speculative activity as traders feel there is opportunity for more upside in current rally."


According to CryptoCompare, traders are also making predictions on the impending Ethereum merge, which is a network update anticipated for September.


Since its $880 low in June, ether has increased to over $1,900.


According to CryptoCompare, BinanceUSD, a stablecoin released by the cryptocurrency exchange Binance, gained popularity in July as spot volumes for transactions between bitcoin and BinanceUSD for the first time surpassed those between bitcoin and dollars.


With a 54% market share, Binance continued to dominate the exchange landscape, while Atom Asset Exchange (AAX), which saw its volume increase by 26.5% in July, moved into second place.


Trading volumes more than half in the second quarter of 2022, according to a data released on Tuesday by American exchange Coinbase.
