Spirit Airlines cuts flights in 12 cities as United, rivals circle

Spirit Airlines cuts flights in 12 cities as United, rivals circle

The post Spirit Airlines cuts flights in 12 cities as United, rivals circle appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A Spirit Airlines jet takes off above two United Airlines airplanes at Newark Liberty Airport on March 23, 2018 in Newark, New Jersey. Gary Hershorn | Getty Images Spirit Airlines is ending service in a host of U.S. cities this fall as it fights for survival. Its rivals, meanwhile, are circling its customers, and one is preparing for the possibility the budget travel icon shuts down altogether. United Airlines on Thursday put on sale a slew of new flights in cities where Spirit operates, like its home base of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and Orlando, Florida, as well as Las Vegas, Houston and Chicago. “If Spirit suddenly goes out of business it will be incredibly disruptive, so we’re adding these flights to give their customers other options if they want or need them,” Patrick Quayle, United’s senior vice president of global network planning and alliances, said in a news release. The new service starts Jan. 6. Last week Frontier Airlines, the second-largest budget airline in the U.S. behind Spirit, announced 20 new routes that compete with Spirit. Meanwhile, in October, Spirit is exiting Albuquerque, New Mexico; Birmingham, Alabama; Boise, Idaho; Chattanooga, Tennessee; Columbia, South Carolina; Portland, Oregon; and Salt Lake City, as well as Oakland, San Diego, Sacramento and San Jose in California, the carrier told CNBC on Wednesday. It is also axing plans to start service in Macon, Georgia, on Oct. 16.  “We apologize to our Guests for any inconvenience this may cause and will reach out to those with affected reservations to notify them of their options, including a refund,” Spirit said in an emailed statement. Some of United’s additional flights include service between the New York area and Columbia and Chattanooga. United is also adding additional flights between Houston, Chicago and Los Angeles, as well as several additional…

Traders are bracing for further selloffs ahead of $4.5 billion in crypto options expiry and key U.S. jobs data this week. BTC, ETH, XRP, and SOL prices slip amid liquidations of $115 million in long positions by traders. In addition, rising long-term Treasury yields and gold prices due to fiscal concerns increased selling pressure on Bitcoin price. $3.28 Billion in Bitcoin Options Expiry According to Deribit, more than 29K BTC options with a notional value of $3.28 billion are set to expire on Friday. The put-call ratio is 1.39, which is extremely high and indicates bearish sentiment among traders. Moreover, the max pain price is at $112,000.

Gaming May Unlock XRP Mass Adoption With XRPL Gamechain

Gaming May Unlock XRP Mass Adoption With XRPL Gamechain

The post Gaming May Unlock XRP Mass Adoption With XRPL Gamechain appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. B3’s gaming platform could unlock XRP adoption through mobile-first experiences. Xcade’s testnet launches with five games designed to drive mainstream crypto user onboarding. B3’s proven success with 8.5 million wallets now suggests potential for XRP growth. The question of whether gaming can drive mass cryptocurrency adoption takes center stage with B3’s launch of XRPL Gamechain, the first dedicated gaming ecosystem built on the XRP Ledger EVM sidechain. This partnership between consumer AppChain network B3 and XRPL Commons tests whether interactive entertainment can succeed where traditional financial applications have struggled. Gaming presents different advantages for cryptocurrency adoption that traditional DeFi applications lack. Mobile-first gaming experiences remove technical barriers that typically prevent mainstream users from engaging with blockchain technology. This potentially provides XRP with the user-friendly gateway it needs for widespread acceptance. B3’s Track Record Suggests Gaming Viability B3’s existing gaming ecosystem provides compelling evidence for gaming’s adoption potential. The platform has successfully onboarded over 8.5 million wallets and processed hundreds of millions of transactions across more than 100 games, including AAA titles. This user base shows that consumers will engage with blockchain technology when presented through familiar gaming interfaces. Xcade, the user-facing platform for XRPL Gamechain, launches today on testnet, featuring five playable titles designed for quick mobile sessions. The platform addresses a critical adoption challenge by allowing users to earn, spend, and interact with XRP through gameplay without requiring complex wallet setup or technical expertise. The gaming approach offers XRP holders direct utility beyond speculative trading. Users can complete challenges, earn XRP-based rewards, and access cross-game progression while maintaining on-chain liquidity. This creates sustained demand for the token through in-game economies and secondary markets. RLUSD Integration Provides Another Utility RLUSD integration as the preferred stablecoin across B3’s ecosystem adds another layer of utility. The stablecoin provides stable payment options for…

Alphabet jumps +8% after the Antitrust ruling in the USA

Alphabet jumps +8% after the Antitrust ruling in the USA

The post Alphabet jumps +8% after the Antitrust ruling in the USA appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Alphabet achieved a single-session increase of over 8% following the federal ruling on September 2, 2025 in the antitrust case involving Google. As reported by Reuters, the stock reached an intraday high of $231.31 and closed around $229, buoyed by the perception that the imposed remedies are targeted and not punitive. The original lawsuit was filed by the U.S. Department of Justice in January 2020, with the DOJ’s official statement initiating the Justice Department proceedings. According to the data collected by our market analysis team, the intraday peak at $231.31 was accompanied by trading volumes significantly above the weekly average. Industry analysts note that the remedies indicated in the ruling significantly reduce the immediate risk of a break-up, while imposing compliance requirements that could result in additional operational costs in the medium term. Immediate Market Impact: Key Numbers 8% intraday increase on GOOGL, peaking at $231.31. Closing around $229, with trading volumes high compared to the weekly average. Trend YTD: since the beginning of the year, Alphabet has shown an outperformance compared to part of the S&P 500, with weekly volatility increasing after the ruling. Break-up risk mitigated in the short term. Default Research Agreements: What Remains and What Changes The court did not impose an absolute ban on default search agreements. An interesting aspect is that Google will be able to continue paying to maintain the position of default search engine on Apple devices, while leaving the door open for possible future revisions. The decision ensures a certain contractual stability in the short term, but also leaves a margin of regulatory uncertainty regarding potential new restrictions. Transparency and data: the obligations indicated by the court to Google The decision aims for greater transparency and better access to technical data on the quality of search results. Among the measures included…

ChatGPT-5 explains how to make $5,000 from Nvidia stock in 5 years

ChatGPT-5 explains how to make $5,000 from Nvidia stock in 5 years

The post ChatGPT-5 explains how to make $5,000 from Nvidia stock in 5 years appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Nvidia’s (NASDAQ: NVDA) stock has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of the artificial intelligence (AI) boom, and according to analysis by ChatGPT-5, an investor can realistically target $5,000 in profits within the next five years. The AI model noted that the path to this goal lies mainly in price appreciation rather than dividend income.  Notably, NVDA stock is targeting the $200 mark, with shares closing at $170.62 in the last trading session, representing a year-to-date increase of more than 23%. NVDA YTD stock price chart. Source: Finbold Initially, ChatGPT-5 considered dividends as a possible contributor toward the $5,000 goal. The company pays a quarterly dividend of $0.01 per share, or $0.04 annually. That translates to a yield of just 0.023% at a stock price of $170, making it one of the lowest-yielding blue-chip equities on the market. Even if Nvidia were to raise payouts by 10% annually, holding 100 shares for five years would generate only about $30 to $35 in dividends. On a larger 300-share stake, the total would still fall below $100, showing how little dividends add to overall returns. The Nvidia capital appreciation route Instead, according to the OpenAI tool, the real driver is capital appreciation. Under conservative assumptions of a 10% annual growth rate, Nvidia’s stock could surge from $170 to around $275 in five years.  Therefore, a $17,000 investment of 100 shares would yield nearly $10,900 in combined profits, while a smaller 50-share stake costing $8,500 would still generate $5,000. On the other hand, a moderate growth scenario of 20% annually would push Nvidia’s share price toward $425, with 100 shares producing more than $25,000 in gains. In that case, just 20 shares, worth about $3,400 today, would deliver the $5,000 target.  Under a more aggressive 30% growth rate, the stock could reach $630,…

Only 7,000 units are available in this initial release, and the public sale will follow immediately after the waitlist window, according to a press release shared with crypto.news. Galaxy S25 Edge AI smartphone | Source: GAIA The so-called Gaia AI Phone runs on Galaxy S25 Edge hardware, but the big thing comes from a new infrastructure layer built by Gaia Labs. Shashank Sripada, GAIA’s co-founder and COO, explained in an interview with crypto.news that instead of changing the hardware itself, the team created a software layer between Android and applications that enables decentralized AI inference right on the device. “Previously, mobile ‘AI’ was primarily application-level – individual apps with basic AI features. Our approach coordinates AI requests at the infrastructure level, using localized training models and authentication protocols that work across all applications while keeping processing entirely on-device.” Shashank Sripada The phone’s software stack includes the Gaia AI Platform for decentralized AI tools, a local LLM runtime, a voice-to-agent interface, as well as…

U.S. CFTC Gives Go-Ahead for Polymarket’s New Exchange, QCX

U.S. CFTC Gives Go-Ahead for Polymarket’s New Exchange, QCX

The post U.S. CFTC Gives Go-Ahead for Polymarket’s New Exchange, QCX appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission has freed up prediction market firm Polymarket’s QCX acquisition from certain disclosure and data requirements as the company moves forward in its U.S. business offerings. QCX, which got its license to start operations in July before it was snatched up later that month by Polymarket, has been granted a “no-action letter” from the CFTC, allowing it to operate in specifically defined ways without drawing enforcement attention. The firm was acquired by Polymarket in hopes of its official return to U.S. business, which it was forced to abandon in 2022 under direction from the regulator. Polymarket has since emerged from earlier federal investigative interest as the U.S. government has eased its tense relationship with this sector, and companies — also including rival Kalshi — have been given more free rein. The field, as a result, has begun to explode in visibility and usage. Wednesday’s decision from two relevant divisions within the CFTC — at the staff level and not a commission ruling — “is similar to previous no-action positions taken with respect to reporting certain binary options transactions and similar transactions,” the agency noted. The letter doesn’t explicitly address prediction markets, but it notes its position on the “recordkeeping regulations for event contracts.” Though he hasn’t been confirmed by the U.S. Senate, yet, President Donald Trump’s nominee to run the CFTC, former Commissioner Brian Quintenz, has close ties to Kalshi as a board member and told lawmakers that the binary event contracts offered at such firms are appropriate “hedging tools.” Even without his arrival, the agency has been taking a friendlier stance, with Acting Chairman Caroline Pham saying the CFTC has let itself get bogged down in a “sinkhole of legal uncertainty” as it pursued legal cases against the industry.
