Today’s crypto news to know

Trump Media and Crypto.com seal US$6.4 billion CRO treasury deal

Trump Media & Technology Group shares climbed 5 percent on Tuesday (August 26) after the company confirmed a US$6.42 billion partnership with Crypto.com to launch a CRO-focused treasury vehicle.

Dubbed as the Trump Media Group CRO Strategy, the new entity will be seeded with US$1 billion in CRO and its balance will be structured as an equity line for future token purchases.

As part of the agreement, the company will operate a validator node on the Cronos blockchain, staking all its tokens to earn network rewards. CRO prices soaring 30 percent in a single day after the announcement, even as most of the crypto market lagged.

Still, the deal has stirred controversy among token holders, as it required reissuing 70 billion CRO previously “burned” to reduce supply which effectively inflated circulation by more than 200 percent.

Ethereum inflows hit US$1.3 billion following Powell’s policy hints

Ethereum funds saw a massive US$1.3 billion inflow over the past week as traders responded to dovish signals from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.

Data from SoSoValue shows Ether-based exchange-traded products have absorbed US$3.7 billion since June, compared with US$900 million in outflows from Bitcoin funds.

The surge also coincided with Ethereum hitting a new all-time high of $4,955 on August 24.

Publicly listed companies also joined the rush, adding Ether to their corporate treasuries and pushing collective holdings to nearly 5 percent of total supply.

That accumulation rate is running at more than twice the fastest quarterly pace Bitcoin has ever seen, according to Standard Chartered’s Geoffrey Kendrick via DLNews.

Canary Capital files for first spot ETF tracking Trump meme coin

ReutersCrypto fund manager Canary Capital has submitted paperwork to launch the first-ever spot ETF tied directly to President Trump’s meme coin, TRUMP, according to a Reuters report.

Unlike earlier applications filed under the 1940 Investment Company Act, Canary’s proposal was lodged under the 1933 Securities Act, meaning the ETF would hold TRUMP tokens outright rather than use offshore subsidiaries or cash equivalents.

The application comes despite skepticism from analysts, who note the SEC typically requires a futures ETF to trade for six months before approving a spot product.

The filing follows the SEC’s February announcement that meme coins fall outside its securities jurisdiction, a decision seen as aligning with the president’s pro-crypto stance.

Meanwhile, the TRUMP token has lost more than 70 percent of its value since launching in January. Analysts expect the SEC to rule on several meme coin ETF applications later this year.

FPX Nickel Corp. (TSX-V: FPX) (OTCQB: FPOCF) (‘ FPX ‘ or the ‘ Company ‘) is pleased to announce the completion of drilling programs at the Baptiste Nickel Project (‘ Baptiste ‘ or ‘ the Project ‘) in Central British Columbia . The previously announced programs (see FPX’s July 7, 2025 news release) mark the most active campaign at Decar since 2021, with a focus on targeting the first phase completion of geomechanical, hydrogeological, and condemnation holes to complement the Project dataset for the feasibility study and the Company’s planned entry into the environmental assessment (‘ EA ‘) process in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Highlights

  • Drilling completed pursuant to the receipt of multi-year area-based permit from the province of British Columbia which covers all anticipated Baptiste field activities required for the feasibility study (‘ FS ‘)
  • Approximately 1,935 m of geomechanical, hydrogeological, and condemnation drilling was completed around the Project site with most of the meterage focused within the open-pit footprint, tangibly achieving the objectives of the program with focus on long-lead data collection for the EA and FS
  • Over 75% of fieldwork expenditures was disbursed under the terms of contracts awarded to First Nations-owned or -affiliated businesses operating in central British Columbia

‘The 2025 field program achieved all objectives in building a robust dataset for Baptiste to support both the feasibility study and the commencement of the environmental assessment process,’ said Martin Turenne , FPX’s President and CEO. ‘We are particularly pleased with the deepening of our relationships with the multiple First Nations communities connected to the Project, in particular through helping to ensure that those communities maximize their current and future economic participation in the Company’s work programs.’

Feasibility Study Field Work Investigations

In connection with the environmental and cultural baseline study works ongoing at Baptiste since 2022, FPX has completed the first phase of FS engineering field work investigations. This year’s program was focused on long-lead data collection that will tangibly support the EA process, as well as improved engineering definition within the open-pit footprint.

Approximately 1,935 m of geomechanical drilling, hydrogeological drilling, and condemnation drilling was completed around the Project site during this year’s program, with most of the meterage focused within the open-pit footprint. This meterage strategically achieved the program objectives of initial FS engineering information gathering and will inform the next phase of the field investigation.

The next phase of the FS engineering field investigation program will include resource in-fill drilling, further geomechanical drilling, further hydrogeological drilling, and ex-pit geotechnical drilling. Following the completion of the second phase of engineering field investigations, the FS is expected to be completed in 2027.

Cultural and Environmental Baseline Studies

Cultural and environmental baseline studies have been ongoing for the Baptiste Nickel Project since early 2022 and include surface water hydrology and water quality, wildlife, vegetation, fisheries and aquatics, and archeology programs. Ongoing and expanded programs have been completed in 2024 and 2025 in preparation for the EA process, including ongoing wildlife, vegetation, geochemistry, climate, hydrology, water quality, and hydrogeology work.

The cultural and environmental studies for the Project are being conducted by local First Nations-owned and -affiliated businesses. This approach targets the integration of First Nations perspectives into the scoping and execution of these studies and provides a strong collaborative basis for the EA process, which the Company plans to initiate in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Daniel Apai , P.Eng., FPX’s Vice President, Projects, FPX’s Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this news release.

About the Baptiste Nickel Project

The Company’s Baptiste Nickel Project represents a large-scale greenfield discovery of nickel mineralization in the form of a sulphur-free, nickel-iron mineral called awaruite (Ni 3 Fe) hosted in an ultramafic/ophiolite complex.  The absence of sulphur and our ability to connect to the BC Hydro grid means that Baptiste has the potential to be one of the lowest carbon-intensive nickel producers in the world and will produce a very high-grade product that does not require any intermediate smelting or complex refining.  The Baptiste mineral claims cover an area of 453 km 2 west of Middle River and north of Trembleur Lake, in central British Columbia.  In addition to the Baptiste Deposit itself, awaruite mineralization has been confirmed through drilling at several target areas within the same claims package, most notably at the Van Target which is located 6 km to the north of the Baptiste Deposit.  Since 2010, approximately US$55 million has been spent on the exploration and development of Baptiste.

FPX has conducted mineral exploration activities to date subject to the conditions of agreements with First Nations and keyoh holders. In 2024, the Province of British Columbia identified the Baptiste Nickel Project as the first project to be included in the Province’s new Critical Minerals Office ( ‘CMO’ ) concierge service initiative, a provincial strategy action to enable the prioritization of critical minerals projects in B.C. The CMO initiative is providing an excellent structure to proactively identify and address issues and opportunities ahead of the Project’s entry into the environmental assessment process.

About FPX Nickel Corp.

FPX Nickel Corp.  is focused on the exploration and development of the Baptiste Nickel Project, located in central British Columbia , and other occurrences of the same unique style of naturally occurring nickel-iron alloy mineralization known as awaruite.  For more information, please view the Company’s website at https://fpxnickel.com/ or contact Martin Turenne , President and CEO, at (604) 681-8600 or ceo@fpxnickel.com .

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • 30.20m grading 6.29g/t gold from 195.8m
  • 14.75m grading 13.6g/t gold from 153.5m
  • 20.95m grading 6.67g/t gold from 113.5m
  • 12.20m grading 8.72g/t gold from 344.5m
  • Consistent gold mineralization at the western end of the High Grade Panel
  • First results from a 15,000 metre program continuing throughout 2025

Heliostar Metals Ltd. (TSXV: HSTR,OTC:HSTXF) (OTCQX: HSTXF) (FSE: RGG1) (‘Heliostar’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce its first results from the current 15,000 metre drill program at its 100% owned Ana Paula project in Guerrero, Mexico. The program has the primary goal of converting inferred ounces to higher confidence classifications, as well as supporting the ongoing Feasibility Study and testing the next exploration targets around the Ana Paula deposit.

Heliostar CEO, Charles Funk, commented, ‘In 2025, Heliostar will drill more metres than we have in our entire Company’s history. We intend to drill between 40,000-50,000 metres from the close of the mine acquisitions late last year to the end of 2025. This drilling is being funded by cashflows from our operating mines. We are particularly excited to be undertaking our largest program at Ana Paula. These first results highlight the consistency of gold mineralization at the High Grade Panel, where we have two rigs turning. One is focused on resource drilling to grow the resource and to convert inferred to higher confidence ounces, and the second is with a geotechnical focus to support the Feasibility Study. These are the first of consistent, drill results planned to be released monthly from Ana Paula through 2025 and into 2026.’

Drilling Program

Heliostar has two rigs turning with 18 holes completed and 5,556 metres drilled to date. Drilling is designed along north-south sections with angled holes to best define the overall east-west orientation of the High Grade Panel. Heliostar’s drilling approach at Ana Paula has been to rotate drilling by approximately 90 degrees from the majority of historic intercepts. This change has been interpreted by the Company to have contributed to demonstrating more continuous and higher-grade gold mineralization within the High Grade Panel than previous operators recognized.

Where appropriate, the holes are also being used to collect rock strength data, hydrogeologic data and samples for further metallurgical studies that will directly influence the Ana Paula mine design in the ongoing Feasibility Study.

Drill Results Summary

Holes AP-25-323 and AP-25-325 are resource conversion holes drilled at the western end of the High Grade Panel. Hole AP-25-323 was drilled further west than the most prospective polymictic breccia host unit and still returned a number of attractive intercepts, including 12.2 metres (‘m’) grading 8.73 grams per tonne (‘g/t’) gold from 344.5 m.

AP-25-325 is located ~30m southeast of AP-25-323 and intercepted the favourable breccia host unit. The hole returned a wide, high-grade interval of 30.2 m grading 6.29 g/t gold from 195.8 m and a number of deeper intercepts that have the potential to expand the resource, including 4.5 m grading 12.6 g/t gold from 277.5 m downhole beneath the High Grade Panel.

Holes AP-25-322 and AP-25-324 are geotechnical holes for mine development planning and returned assay results in line with expectations, including a hit of 14.75 m grading 13.6 g/t gold from 153.5 m in AP-25-322.

Drilling continues at the less well-defined western edge of the High Grade Panel, with results from three additional holes pending from this area. Recently, drilling has been focused in the centre of the High Grade Panel with assays from seven holes pending from this area.

The next Ana Paula drill results are anticipated to be released in mid- to late September.

Selected financial and operational information outlined in this news release should be read in conjunction with Coelacanth’s unaudited condensed interim financial statements and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis (‘MD&A’) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, which are available for review under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

OPERATIONS UPDATE

Coelacanth has surpassed many milestones over its initial three years including:

  • Drilling and testing successful test pads at both Two Rivers East and West in multiple zones.
  • Completing significant infrastructure including a facility capable of ultimately handling 16,000 boe/d and over 23 miles of pipelines to connect wells and facilities to major gathering systems.
  • Obtaining core, pressure and other data that are invaluable in helping define commerciality to the multiple Montney horizons mapped over Coelacanth’s 150 section contiguous land block.

Wells recently placed on production from our 5-19 pad have exceeded expectations and we look forward to placing all our wells on production by October 1, 2025 once all planned third party outages and /or major pipeline maintenance is completed in September. Coelacanth will calibrate production to the type curves in our independent reserve report and recently released resource report to determine ultimate recoveries and provide insights into potential drilling and completion optimizations.

Over the next few years, Coelacanth will continue with its business plan that incorporates:

  • Systematically developing the resource using pad development and horizontal multi-frac technology to increase production and maximize cash flow and investment returns.
  • Delineating the lands with vertical and horizontal wells to help in quantifying and understanding the commerciality of its large Montney resource base that includes up to four Montney benches over its 150 contiguous sections of land.
  • Developing and licensing a flexible infrastructure plan that will allow for the resource to be scaled to a much larger production base.

Coelacanth has licensed additional locations on the 5-19 pad, is in the process of licensing additional development pads, delineation locations and additional infrastructure to grow beyond current plant capacity. While commodity prices and available capital will dictate the pace of execution of the business plan, we are very pleased with the results to date and look forward to reporting on new developments as they arise.

OIL AND GAS TERMS

The Company uses the following frequently recurring oil and gas industry terms in the news release:

 Liquids
 Bbls  Barrels 
 Bbls/d  Barrels per day 
 NGLs  Natural gas liquids (includes condensate, pentane, butane, propane, and ethane) 
 Condensate  Pentane and heavier hydrocarbons  
   
 Natural Gas
 Mcf  Thousands of cubic feet 
 Mcf/d  Thousands of cubic feet per day 
 MMcf/d  Millions of cubic feet per day 
 MMbtu  Million of British thermal units  
 MMbtu/d  Million of British thermal units per day 
   
 Oil Equivalent
 Boe  Barrels of oil equivalent 
 Boe/d  Barrels of oil equivalent per day 

 

Disclosure provided herein in respect of a boe may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil equivalent has been used for the calculation of boe amounts in the news release. This boe conversion rate is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES

This news release refers to certain measures that are not determined in accordance with IFRS (or ‘GAAP’). These non-GAAP and other financial measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. The non-GAAP and other financial measures should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, financial measures that are determined in accordance with IFRS as indicators of the Company’s performance. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP and other financial measures provides useful information to shareholders and investors in understanding and evaluating the Company’s ongoing operating performance, and the measures provide increased transparency to better analyze the Company’s performance against prior periods on a comparable basis.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted funds flow (used)
Management uses adjusted funds flow (used) to analyze performance and considers it a key measure as it demonstrates the Company’s ability to generate the cash necessary to fund future capital investments and abandonment obligations and to repay debt, if any. Adjusted funds flow (used) is a non-GAAP financial measure and has been defined by the Company as cash flow from (used in) operating activities excluding the change in non-cash working capital related to operating activities, movements in restricted cash deposits and expenditures on decommissioning obligations. Management believes the timing of collection, payment or incurrence of these items involves a high degree of discretion and as such may not be useful for evaluating the Company’s cash flows. Adjusted funds flow (used) is reconciled from cash flow from (used in) operating activities as follows:

  Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
  June 30 June 30
($000s)  2025   2024   2025   2024 
Cash flow from (used in) operating activities  (1,826 ) (480 ) (845 ) 2,776
Add (deduct):        
Decommissioning expenditures 48 328 187 476
Change in restricted cash deposits 422 846
Change in non-cash working capital 1,178 (8 ) (1,382 ) (2,758 )
Adjusted funds flow (used) (non-GAAP) (600 ) 262 (2,040 ) 1,340

 

Net transportation expenses
Management considers net transportation expenses an important measure as it demonstrates the cost of utilized transportation related to the Company’s production. Net transportation expenses is calculated as transportation expenses less unutilized transportation and is calculated as follows:

  Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
  June 30 June 30
($000s) 2025 2024 2025 2024
Transportation expenses 779 826 1,330 1,371
Unutilized transportation (303 ) (522 ) (580 ) (747 )
Net transportation expenses (non-GAAP) 476 304 750 624

 

Operating netback
Management considers operating netback an important measure as it demonstrates its profitability relative to current commodity prices. Operating netback is calculated as oil and natural gas sales less royalties, operating expenses, and net transportation expenses and is calculated as follows:

  Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
  June 30 June 30
($000s)  2025   2024   2025   2024 
Oil and natural gas sales 4,828 3,164 7,494 6,830
Royalties (910 ) (674 ) (1,401 ) (1,495 )
Operating expenses (1,195 ) (888 ) (1,923 ) (1,782 )
Net transportation expenses (476 ) (304 ) (750 ) (624 )
Operating netback (non-GAAP) 2,247 1,298 3,420 2,929

 

Capital expenditures
Coelacanth utilizes capital expenditures as a measure of capital investment on property, plant, and equipment, exploration and evaluation assets and property acquisitions compared to its annual budgeted capital expenditures. Capital expenditures are calculated as follows: hello

  Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
  June 30 June 30
($000s)  2025   2024   2025   2024 
Capital expenditures – property, plant, and equipment 370 184 1,038 577
Capital expenditures – exploration and evaluation assets 13,903 2,338 38,936 3,208
Capital expenditures (non-GAAP) 14,273 2,522 39,974 3,785

 

Capital Management Measures

Adjusted working capital (deficiency)
Management uses adjusted working capital (deficiency) as a measure to assess the Company’s financial position. Adjusted working capital (deficiency) is calculated as current assets and restricted cash deposits less current liabilities, excluding the current portion of decommissioning obligations.

($000s) June 30,
2025 
December 31,
2024 
Current assets 6,439 11,579
Less:     
Current liabilities  (53,926 ) (37,234 )
Working capital deficiency (47,487 ) (25,655 )
Add:     
Restricted cash deposits 4,900 4,900
Current portion of decommissioning obligations 686 2,118
Adjusted working capital deficiency (Capital management measure) (41,901 ) (18,637 )

 

Non-GAAP Financial Ratios

Adjusted Funds Flow (Used) per Share
Adjusted funds flow (used) per share is a non-GAAP financial ratio, calculated using adjusted funds flow (used) and the same weighted average basic and diluted shares used in calculating net loss per share.

Net transportation expenses per boe
The Company utilizes net transportation expenses per boe to assess the per unit cost of utilized transportation related to the Company’s production. Net transportation expenses per boe is calculated as net transportation expenses divided by total production for the applicable period.

Operating netback per boe
The Company utilizes operating netback per boe to assess the operating performance of its petroleum and natural gas assets on a per unit of production basis. Operating netback per boe is calculated as operating netback divided by total production for the applicable period.

Supplementary Financial Measures

The supplementary financial measures used in this news release (primarily average sales price per product type and certain per boe and per share figures) are either a per unit disclosure of a corresponding GAAP measure, or a component of a corresponding GAAP measure, presented in the financial statements. Supplementary financial measures that are disclosed on a per unit basis are calculated by dividing the aggregate GAAP measure (or component thereof) by the applicable unit for the period. Supplementary financial measures that are disclosed on a component basis of a corresponding GAAP measure are a granular representation of a financial statement line item and are determined in accordance with GAAP.

PRODUCT TYPES

The Company uses the following references to sales volumes in the news release:

Natural gas refers to shale gas
Oil and condensate refers to condensate and tight oil combined
Other NGLs refers to butane, propane and ethane combined
Oil and NGLs refers to tight oil and NGLs combined
Oil equivalent refers to the total oil equivalent of shale gas, tight oil, and NGLs combined, using the conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet of shale gas to one barrel of oil equivalent.

Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) – Basin Energy Limited (ASX:BSN) (OTCMKTS:BSNEF) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding agreement to acquire 100% of the issued capital of NeoDys Limited (‘NeoDys’), a privately held critical minerals explorer with a dominant landholding in the Mount Isa region of northwest Queensland.

Key Highlights

– Binding agreement to acquire the largest prospective uranium and rare earth packages in Queensland, adjacent to Paladin Energy Limited’s (ASX:PDN) Valhalla uranium deposit and Red Metal Limited’s (ASX:RDM) Sybella rare earth discovery [1*]

– Early stage exploration supports three distinct, drill-ready exploration models, each amenable to low-cost shallow drilling:

o AEM geophysical survey previously reported identified extensive paleochannel network adjacent to the Sybella uranium ‘hot’ granite.

o Significant hard rock granite rare earth element potential, analogous to Red Metal’s Sybella discovery. Recent auger drill sampling returned numerous significant results including 5 m @ 1,951 ppm TREO with 578 ppm Nd+Pr oxide, incl. 3 m @ 705 ppm Nd+Pr oxide.

o District-scale sediment-hosted ionic clay rare earth potential with $150,000 Queensland Government funding in place to fastrack drilling. Soil sampling completed with numerous samped returning >600 ppm TREO with a maximum of 653 ppm TREO.

– Additional Valhalla-style uranium targets with multiple untested radiometric anomalies, in proximity to Valhalla, Skal and Odin deposits which host a combined 116 Mlbs U3O8 [2*]

– The Company has received firm commitments from institutional and sophisticated investors to raise $1.25 million at $0.025 per share, representing a 9% premium to 20 day VWAP.

– With the oversubscribed placement along with the Queensland grant, Basin Energy is fully funded to test these drill-ready high priority targets, enabling the Company to fast-track multiple uranium and rare earth drill programs.

– Detailed targeting and drill planning is underway with exploration planned to commence in Q4 2025 to test shallow, high priority targets via aircore and reverse circulation drilling.

Managing Director, Pete Moorhouse commented:

‘This acquisition propels Basin into Australia’s uranium and rare earth exploration landscape. These projects deliver exceptional geology, strategic scale and compelling upside across two of the most critical mineral sectors of the energy transition. With drill-ready targets and a low-cost structure, this portfolio is primed to deliver value for shareholders. Over the next 6 months, Basin Energy will be drilling the first holes on three district-scale opportunities for uranium and rare earth deposits in Northwest Queensland.

The Company is delighted with the strong interest in the capital raising. On behalf of the Board, I welcome our new shareholders, and thank existing shareholders for their continued support at an exciting time of development for the Company. We will be holding a webinar to walk through the projects on 28th August and encourage people to log in and learn more about this opportunity.’

Overview

This acquisition provides Basin with a commanding position over one of Australia’s emerging and underexplored provinces for uranium and rare earth elements (‘REE’), leveraging the recent Sybella rare earth discovery by Red Metal Limited (ASX:RDM) and the prospectivity of the adjacent Barkly Tableland.

Basin now holds 5,958 km2 of exploration tenure in the Mount Isa district of northwest Queensland. The projects provide compelling walk-up drill targets that can be rapidly and cost-effectively tested using air core and reverse circulation (RC) drilling. NeoDys have an existing Queensland Government Collaborative Exploration Initiative funding agreement for $150,000, available for Basin to support upcoming drilling programs.

The drill-ready, district scale targets include:

– Paleochannel roll front uranium (1*)

– Sediment and ionic clay hosted rare earth elements (2*)

– Hard rock, granite hosted rare earth elements (3*)

In addition to these three district-scale targets, the project area contains multiple shear-hosted Valhallastyle uranium targets defined for immediate assessment.

The primary model is based on mineralisation sourced from the various granites of the Sybella Batholith (‘the Sybella’), a large north-south trending igneous body containing zones enriched in rare earth elements. This includes the Red Metal (ASX:RDM) Sybella Discovery with a recent JORC inferred resource estimate of 4.795 Bt at 302 ppm NdPr, 28 ppm DyTb (200 ppm NdPr cut-off) or 209 Mt at 377 ppm NdPr, 34 ppm DyTb (360 ppm NdPr cut-off) [1*]. The Sybella granites are also uranium rich, potentially being the source of Paladin Energy’s (ASX:PDN) Valhalla deposits[2*] .

Terms of the Share Placement

The Company has received firm commitments to raise $1.25 million, by way of a two-tranche share placement (‘Placement’) of 50 million shares at an issue price of $0.025 per share. The Placement price represents the Company’s last market close price, and a 9.1% premium to the 20-day VWAP.

Tranche two will be subject to a general meeting, to be called shortly and expected in early October.

The offer was significantly oversubscribed, with proceeds to be allocated as follows:

– Air core drilling on the Barkly Tablelands uranium and REE targets

– RC drilling at the Newmans Bore granite-hosted REE target

– Mapping and sampling of the West Valhalla Radiometric targets

– General working capital.

The Placement was managed internally and was not subject to broker fees.
