While TMX Group believes these measures provide investors with greater transparency and supplemental data relating to the transaction, readers are cautioned that these non-GAAP measures are not alternatives to measures determined in accordance with GAAP and should not, on their own, be construed as indicators of TMX Group's or Cboe Canada and Cboe Australia's future performance or profitability. Readers should not rely on any single financial measure when evaluating TMX Group's business or that of Cboe Canada and Cboe Australia. We use non-GAAP measures and non-GAAP ratios that do not have standardized meanings prescribed by GAAP and are, therefore, unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Management uses these measures, and excludes certain items, because it believes doing so provides investors a more effective analysis of underlying operating and financial performance, including, in some cases, our ability to generate cash and our ability to repay debt. Management also uses these measures to more effectively measure performance over time, and excluding these items increases comparability across periods. The exclusion of certain items does not imply that they are non-recurring or not useful to investors.Adjusted earnings per share provided above is a non-GAAP ratio and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. TMX Group presents Adjusted EPS and excludes, among other things, acquisition, integration, and related items; amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions; strategic re-alignment expenses; dispute, litigation and related items; and other items as disclosed in TMX Group's 2025 Annual Report.

São Paulo Court Dismisses SPRIBE’s Pause Request Against Aviator Studio Brazil

(AsiaGameHub) -   According to Aviator Studio Brazil, the company has successfully secured two back-to-back legal victories in São Paulo, with courts denying SPRIBE’s attempts to obtain an injunction to shut down its business activities. The most recent decision was issued on 16 April by the 2nd Reserved Chamber of Business Law of the São Paulo Court of Appeals. The court denied the request for an emergency injunction, permitting Aviator Studio Brazil to maintain its operations with partners such as Foggo Entertainment (Blaze) while the ongoing litigation regarding the AVIATOR trademark remains unresolved. In its ruling, the Court of Appeals pointed to three key arguments presented by Aviator Studio Brazil: the existence of a dispute regarding SPRIBE’s alleged exclusive rights to the “AVIATOR” trademark, the lack of evidence demonstrating immediate or irreversible damage, and the fact that Aviator Studio Brazil operates under a license from Aviator LLC, the validity of which will be determined throughout the legal proceedings. The company also addressed a separate legal action announced by SPRIBE on 15 April concerning NSX Betnacional. Aviator LLC noted that neither it nor Betnacional had prior knowledge of the case, but upon learning of it, Aviator Studio Brazil intervened to assist Betnacional and take charge of the defense regarding the use of the AVIATOR brand. Regarding the ruling, George Pruidze, CEO at Aviator Studio, stated: “With two successive wins in both the trial and appellate courts of São Paulo, it is evident that there is no justification for the emergency measures requested by SPRIBE. Aviator Studio Brazil continues to conduct business legally under its license, and we remain dedicated to backing our partners and safeguarding the AVIATOR brand whenever required. “As SPRIBE continues to initiate similar actions in Brazil, such as the current case involving Betnacional, we will persist in supporting our partners and ensuring the protection of the legitimate use of the AVIATOR brand. We are certain that our legal position and the facts of the case will continue to be upheld as these matters move forward.” This article is provided by a third-party.

At the Forefront of Green Transportation: A Deep Dive into Smart Green Mobility Share Inc.’s (SGM.s) Globalization Strategy

New York, NY – April 22, 2026 – (SeaPRwire) – Against the global backdrop of pursuing “Net-Zero Emissions,” the micromobility market is experiencing explosive growth. As a dark horse in this field, Smart Green Mobility Share Inc. (SGM.s) has become a focal point of industry attention, thanks to its unique “Global Industrial Integration” model and rapid pace of expansion. From Pure Operations to Ecosystem Empowerment  Unlike traditional bike-sharing companies, SGM.s is not content with being just a vehicle operator. In 2026, SGM.s took a critical step by launching its “Global Industrial Resource Integration Plan.” This strategy marks SGM.s’s transformation into an “Integrated Mobility Ecosystem Provider.” By consolidating top-tier upstream manufacturing resources and downstream global distribution channels, SGM.s is breaking the stalemate of long, inefficient chains in the traditional mobility industry. It does not just export products; it exports standardized intelligent systems (AI+IoT) and global operational expertise, providing partners with one-stop “Turn-key” solutions. Core Competitive Advantages: Digital Operations and Deep User Engagement  The secret to SGM.s’s success lies in its ultimate pursuit of “efficiency”: AI-Driven Grid Management: Relying on its self-developed intelligent system, SGM can accurately predict vehicle demand across different time slots and locations. This predictive deployment significantly reduces vehicle idle rates, leading the industry in per-unit profitability. Innovative Value-Sharing Mechanism: SGM’s “Online Vehicle Deployment Program” breaks the traditional boundaries between the enterprise and the user. Users are not just consumers; they are maintainers and beneficiaries of the ecosystem. This high level of user stickiness not only lowers operation and maintenance costs but also garners broader social support and brand loyalty for the company. Impressive Results: The “SGM.s Speed” of Global Expansion  To date, SGM.s’s footprint spans over 280 cities worldwide. Scale Effect: 300,000 vehicles in operation form a solid competitive moat. Environmental Contribution: The cumulative reduction in carbon emissions has become the company’s most persuasive ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) calling card, giving it a natural advantage in securing international green capital. Conclusion: Reshaping the Boundaries of Future Mobility Essentially, SGM.s is utilizing advanced digital technology to empower traditional transportation. As the 2026 Industrial Integration Plan moves forward, SGM.s is poised to take a more dominant position in the future landscape of shared transportation. For observers and investors, SGM.s represents more than just a shared mobility platform; it embodies a future business paradigm of “Green Energy + Digital Intelligence + Global Collaboration.” Company link: https://sgmpw.com/#/register/7665222 Media contact Organization: Smart Green Mobility Share Inc Connect: SGM.s Team Email: support@sgm.lol Website: https://sgm.lol

MHI Marine Machinery & Equipment and Mitsubishi Shipbuilding Obtain Approval in Principle (AiP) for the Basic Design of a Methane Oxidation Catalyst System for Marine LNG-Fueled Engines from Classification Society ClassNK

TOKYO, Apr 22, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Marine Machinery & Equipment Co., Ltd. (MHI-MME) and Mitsubishi Shipbuilding Co., Ltd., both part of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group, have obtained Approval in Principle (AiP)(1) from Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (ClassNK) for the basic design of a methane oxidation catalyst system for marine LNG (liquefied natural gas)-fueled engines(2), jointly developed with Daihatsu Infinearth Mfg. Co., Ltd. A presentation ceremony was held today at Sea Japan 2026, an international maritime exhibition being held at Tokyo Big Sight in Koto-ku, Tokyo.The methane oxidation catalyst system subject to the AiP oxidizes methane slip (unburned methane) contained in the exhaust gas of marine engines. Methane has a high global warming potential among greenhouse gases (GHGs),(3) and therefore the ability to suppress its emissions is a significant advantage of this system. The system was developed with MHI-MME's catalyst design and manufacturing technology at its core, combined with Mitsubishi Shipbuilding's shipboard installation technology, and Daihatsu Infinearth's engine optimization technology.Verification testing of the catalyst system is currently being conducted in cooperation with Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha (NYK Line), with a full-scale demonstrator mounted on the KEYS Azalea, an LNG bunkering vessel(4) owned and operated by KEYS Bunkering West Japan Ltd. (KEYS). Initial measurements during the verification testing confirmed the expected performance of the exhaust gas treatment equipment, achieving a methane oxidation rate of more than 90% for the system alone.Following the acquisition of AiP and the confirmation of the expected performance through verification on an actual ship (initial measurements), the partner companies plan to further accelerate development toward commercialization of the system.MHI Group is making strategic efforts to strengthen its energy transition business. As part of this strategy, MHI-MME and Mitsubishi Shipbuilding will continue their efforts to reduce GHG emissions from marine vessels amid the growing global urgency for decarbonization, thereby contributing to the improvement of the environmental performance of ships on a global scale.(1) Approval in Principle (AiP) indicates that a certification body has reviewed the basic design of the subject equipment and confirmed that it meets technical requirements and relevant safety standards.(2) Methane oxidation is a chemical reaction in which methane (CH4) is converted into carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) through reaction with oxygen.(3) Greenhouse gases (GHGs) include carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O). The catalyst system for this demonstration test only targets methane slip.(4) LNG bunkering vessels are small ships that supply LNG fuel to LNG-fueled vessels.About MHI GroupMitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group is one of the world’s leading industrial groups, spanning energy, smart infrastructure, industrial machinery, aerospace and defense. MHI Group combines cutting-edge technology with deep experience to deliver innovative, integrated solutions that help to realize a carbon neutral world, improve the quality of life and ensure a safer world.

MGM Resorts Finalizes Sale of Northfield Park for $546 Million

(AsiaGameHub) -   MGM Resorts International has completed the sale of its MGM Northfield Park asset located in Ohio. The purchasing entity is Clairvest Group Inc, with the total cash transaction value reaching US$546 million. MGM Resorts noted that estimated net cash proceeds, after deducting taxes and transaction-related costs, are expected to come in at approximately US$420 million. Good to Know MGM Resorts has finalized the sale of MGM Northfield Park to funds overseen by Clairvest Group Inc for US$546 million in cash. MGM Resorts anticipates roughly US$420 million in net cash proceeds once taxes and transaction expenses are accounted for. The existing lease agreement with VICI Properties was modified upon transaction closing, reducing annual rental payments by US$53 million. MGM Resorts Unlocks Liquidity Following Northfield Park Sale Completion The newly available capital provides MGM Resorts with greater financial flexibility. Jonathan Halkyard, chief financial officer of MGM Resorts, stated: “The finalization of this transaction highlights the value of MGM’s high-quality operational capabilities, and creates an opportunity to divest a non-core regional asset at a notably higher multiple than the valuation currently assigned to our premium portfolio. “The proceeds will be allocated in line with our key priorities of maintaining a robust balance sheet, making targeted investments in growth opportunities, and returning capital to shareholders.”This rental reduction adds an extra benefit to the deal. Upon closing, the master lease agreement with VICI Properties that had previously included MGM Northfield Park was revised. Annual rent obligations dropped by US$53 million. For MGM Resorts, this means it gains cash from the sale while also lowering its recurring lease expenses at the same time. Bill Hornbuckle, chief executive and president of MGM Resorts, described MGM Northfield Park as a “market-leading property” with a “strong operational foundation”. He added: “We offer our best wishes to the property’s team and new ownership for continued success as the asset enters the next chapter of its development.” MGM Resorts has been divesting assets that fall outside of its core long-term strategy, while reserving capital for larger-scale projects and shareholder returns. One of the most significant projects on its roadmap is MGM Osaka, the integrated resort being developed in partnership with Orix Corp and local stakeholders in Japan. MGM Resorts has stated it is pursuing targeted expansion across Asia through this development, and earlier company documents have pegged its expected launch for the end of 2030.According to MGM Resorts, Northfield Park generated approximately US$142 million in Adjusted EBITDAR for the full year ending December 31, 2025. Against this context, the sale price and rental adjustment give investors a clearer understanding of how MGM Resorts values regional assets compared to the rest of its premium portfolio.

比特幣價格預測:策略公司以25.4億美元購入比特幣,是否是下一波走勢的信號?Pepeto預售籌資超過929萬美元

(SeaPRwire) -   本週,比特幣價格預測板塊因 Strategy 公佈了價值 25.4 億美元的 34,164 枚 BTC 購買量而備受關注,這是該公司歷史上第三大單筆購買,據 CoinDesk 報導。隨著伊朗停火談判取得進展以及全球股市恢復上漲,比特幣價格於 4 月 21 日重回 76,000 美元上方。 所有重要的比特幣價格預測都圍繞著這一舉動進行改寫。當地球上最具攻擊性的企業財政以每枚 74,395 美元的價格花費 25.4 億美元時,市場底部就有了買家。Pepeto 透過籌集 929 萬美元持續吸引資金,比特幣價格預測的受眾意識到,100 倍的漲幅現在將透過價格為 0.0000001865 美元的預售實現,而不是一個被鎖定在 62,000 至 80,000 美元區間內的藍籌股。 Strategy 斥資 25.4 億美元購入 BTC,比特幣價格預測上調 據 CoinDesk 報導,Strategy 目前已在 BTC 上花費約 615.6 億美元,平均成本為 76,011 美元。4 月 20 日的購買量是記錄中的第三大購買,在比特幣價格預測的下一階段開啟之際,將其持倉推向了更為稀缺的領域。 據 Bloomberg 報導,現貨 BTC ETF 持續強勁,連續 5 個交易日錄得淨流入,4 月 20 日為 2.38 億美元,其中 BlackRock 的 IBIT 領先,達到 2.56 億美元。當企業買盤和 ETF 買盤同時發力時,比特幣價格預測就不再是問「是否」,而是問「何時」。 當 BTC 在 75K 至 80K 之間波動時,聰明錢的去向 那些錯過了從 16,000 美元漲到 126,000 美元的人已經知道這次失誤的代價,而下一波的後悔正在實時上演。Pepeto 在 2022 年買家透過 2024 年的財富獲得回報的確切恐懼階段吸引了真實的資金。 儘管大型加密貨幣正在等待下一個宏觀觸發因素,但該項目已經推出了一個可工作的交易所。一個零氣體費用的橋樑可以在 Ethereum、BNB Chain 和 Solana 之間轉移代幣,而合約掃描器會檢查進入錢包的每一個代幣,因此 rug pull 永遠無法靠近。 每一輪的結束速度都比前一輪快,這就是為什麼承諾金額已超過 929 萬美元。Binance 上市即將到來,一旦交易開始,預售價格將成為遲到者希望能夠重溫的數據點。 一位前 Binance 高管領導上市策略,SolidProof 在公開募資開始前驗證了所有智能合約。年化報酬率為 180% 的質押每日複利,而廣泛的 CEX 和 DEX 上市則在 Binance 發布後陸續推出。原始 Pepe 的聯合創始人正在構建這個項目,他就是那個將 420 兆代幣變成價值 110 億美元的巨頭,而無需發布任何產品的人。 從 0.0000001865 美元開始,達到該估值遠遠超過 100 倍,而這次該項目將推出 PepetoSwap、一個實時橋樑和一個合約掃描器。任何比特幣價格預測要達到這樣的漲幅,BTC 需要突破 1000 萬美元。 比特幣價格預測:BTC 能否在比特幣會議前突破 80,000 美元? 據 CoinMarketCap 報導,比特幣 (BTC) 於 4 月 21 日交易價接近 76,011 美元,24 小時上漲 1.5%,從 2 月份 near 60,000 美元的低點回升。交易所儲備接近多年低點,週五 79 億美元的期權到期在 76,000 美元的行權價上有大量看漲頭寸。 據 CoinPedia 報導,如果停火得以維持並且聯準會 (Fed) 在 4 月 28-29 日的會議上發出降息信號,機構交易員的目標是 90,000 至 100,000 美元,一旦美國銀行直接購買 BTC,多頭將目標鎖定在 143,000 美元。即使是如此大膽的比特幣價格預測,在幾個月內也只能帶來約 90% 的漲幅,而從預售到上市的 100 倍漲幅是大型加密貨幣在 1.5 兆美元基礎上無法彌補的差距。 結論 以下是大多數交易者在漲勢已經計入圖表後才意識到的情況。本週已經給出了預演:Strategy 花費 25.4 億美元購買 BTC,現貨 ETF 錄得連續五個交易日的淨流入,隨著伊朗停火談判的推進,BTC 重回 76,000 美元。一旦宏觀經濟明朗,利率開始下降,BTC 將突破 100,000 美元,但那些在多個週期中複利的錢包不會透過持有價值 1.5 兆美元資產的 40% 漲幅來實現。 他們透過在恐懼情緒仍為個位數時進入最強的早期項目來實現複利。Pepeto 預售價格為 0.0000001865 美元,已籌集 929 萬美元,原始 Pepe 的聯合創始人領銜開發,SolidProof 審核所有合約,並確認 Binance 上市,這滿足了比特幣價格預測人群尋求真正 100 倍漲幅時所需的所有條件。 新週期已經開始加載。現在進入 Pepeto 預售的交易者正在鎖定那些在場邊觀望的錢包在 2026 年會後悔沒有抓住的收益,當時窗口仍然敞開。 點擊訪問 Pepeto 網站進入預售 常見問題解答 是什麼在推動 2026 年 4 月比特幣價格預測走高? 比特幣價格預測之所以攀升,是因為 Strategy 以平均每枚 74,395 美元的價格購買了 34,164 枚 BTC,價值 25.4 億美元,現貨 BTC ETF 錄得連續 5 個交易日的淨流入,其中 BlackRock 的 IBIT 在 4 月 20 日達到 2.56 億美元。隨著伊朗停火談判的推進以及股市恢復上漲,比特幣價格於 4 月 21 日重回 76,000 美元上方,機構交易員預計一旦聯準會開始降息,目標將達到 100,000 美元。 現在 Pepeto 是否比 76,000 美元的比特幣是更好的早期入場選擇? Pepeto 是更強的早期入場選擇,因為其預售價格為 0.0000001865 美元,目標是從地板價到確認的 Binance 上市實現 100 倍或更高的漲幅,這是比特幣在其 1.5 兆美元的基礎上無法複製的差距。BTC 的目標是 100,000 至 143,000 美元,這是一個不錯的漲幅,但仍封頂於翻倍,而 Pepeto 則擁有 929 萬美元的籌款金額、SolidProof 審核的合約、180% 的年化質押收益以及原始 Pepe 的聯合創始人領銜開發。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Everest Medicines Announces Positive First-in-Human Data for Personalized mRNA Cancer Vaccine EVM16 at AACR 2026

HONG KONG, Apr 22, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Apr 20, Everest Medicines announced that the first-in-human (FIH) clinical trial data of EVM16, a proprietary personalized mRNA cancer vaccine, were presented at the 2026 American Association for Cancer Research  Annual Meeting (AACR 2026). The data include results from EVM16 as  a monotherapy and in combination with the PD-1 inhibitor tislelizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors. The results demonstrated that EVM16 has a favorable safety and tolerability profile, robust immunogenicity, and promising preliminary efficacy in patients with advanced solid tumors, supporting its further clinical development.The clinical trial (EVM16CX01, NCT06541639) was conducted jointly by Peking University Cancer Hospital and Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center, with the first patient dosed in March 2025. EVM16CX01 is a first-in-human (FIH), dose-escalation, and expansion study evaluating the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of EVM16 injection as a monotherapy and in combination with tislelizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study follows a 3+3 dose-escalation design across three dose levels (0.1 mg, 0.3 mg, and 1.0 mg). Eligible patients are those with advanced or recurrent solid tumors who have failed standard of care and have at least one measurable target lesion. Patients receive 2 doses of EVM16 monotherapy once every two weeks, followed by combination therapy of EVM16 and tislelizumab. As of December 7, 2025, a total of 9 patients had been enrolled.No dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed. All patients experienced at least one investigational product (IP) related adverse event (AE), all of which were Grade ≤ 2 and resolved spontaneously. EVM16 elicited strong neoantigen-specific T cell responses in 8 of 9 patients, which showed a dose-dependent trend. A gastroesophageal junction cancer patient who failed 3 prior lines of systemic therapy achieved a confirmed partial response and a PFS of 126 days. Another 2 patients achieved stable disease. A non-small cell lung cancer patient who failed 3 prior lines of systemic therapy achieved a PFS of 88 days, and an esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patient who failed 3 prior lines of systemic therapy has been followed up for 112 days to date and has not experienced disease progression.“As a novel personalized mRNA cancer vaccine, EVM16 has demonstrated encouraging clinical development potential in its first-in-human clinical trial,” said Professor Shen Lin, Director of the Gastrointestinal Oncology Department at Beijing Cancer Hospital and Chair of the Gastric Cancer Expert Committee of the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology. “The data show a favorable safety and tolerability profile in patients with advanced solid tumors, with no dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) observed. Importantly, EVM16 stimulated neoantigen-specific T cell responses with a dose-dependent trend, highlighting its consistent immune activation capability. Preliminary anti-tumor activity signals, including partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD), were observed in patients who had failed multiple lines of standard-of-care therapies, suggesting potential clinical activity. These findings provide early clinical validation of EVM16 and reinforce its differentiated mechanism as a personalized mRNA cancer vaccine. While immunotherapies, including checkpoint inhibitors, have transformed the treatment landscape in selected tumor types, most patients, particularly those with heavily pretreated advanced solid tumors, still represent a significant unmet medical need. Personalized mRNA cancer vaccines represented by EVM16 may help expand the population benefiting from immunotherapy and provide additional treatment options.” “The favorable safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy results for EVM16 provide initial evidence of its therapeutic potential and support the clinical value of our in-house mRNA platform,” said Mr. Rogers Yongqing Luo, Chief Executive Officer of Everest Medicines. “Patients with advanced solid tumors, particularly those who have failed multiple lines of therapy, continue to suffer from limited treatment options. As our first in-house developed personalized mRNA cancer vaccine, EVM16 demonstrates the ability to induce immune activation and generate neoantigen-specific T cell responses, which may help reduce the risk of tumor metastasis or recurrence. This further underscores its potential as a novel approach in cancer immunotherapy. This project is powered by EVER-NEO-1, Everest’s proprietary AI-based neoantigen prediction algorithm. It analyzes patient-specific tumor mutations to identify highly immunogenic neoantigens and support the design of personalized mRNA vaccine candidates. The algorithm incorporates iterative learning capabilities designed to continuously improve neoantigen prediction accuracy and selection efficiency. Leveraging our leading mRNA platform, we will continue to advance the clinical development of EVM16 and bring this innovative therapy to more patients.”Everest Medicines has localized its clinically validated proprietary AI+mRNA platform, establishing an end-to-end integrated platform spanning antigen design, mRNA sequence optimization, lipid nanoparticles (LNP) targeted delivery and scalable manufacturing, with the potential to address significant unmet medical needs globally.EVM16 is a novel personalized therapeutic mRNA cancer vaccine in-house developed by Everest. It contains neoantigens with high immunogenicity potential, predicted based on the unique tumor mutations of each patient using Everest’s proprietary AI-based neoantigen prediction algorithm, EVER-NEO-1. The vaccine is designed to encode dozens of tumor neoantigens. The vaccine uses a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) delivery system to efficiently deliver neoantigen-encoded mRNA in vivo, activating neoantigen-specific tumor-killing T cells and inhibiting tumor growth.From an investment and market perspective, personalized cancer vaccines are in an early stage of breakthrough. According to Grand View Research, the global personalized cancer vaccine market is projected to reach $1.45 billion by 2030, with a staggering compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 44.86% from 2025 to 2030. Myguide Securities points out that mRNA cancer vaccines have the potential to achieve pan-cancer coverage while offering the advantages of high accessibility, “off-the-shelf” availability, and personalization. As a highly promising new form of immunotherapy, it can enter clinical use as adjuvant therapies through extensive combinations, gradually unlocking a market space worth tens of billions of dollars.Against this backdrop, Everest Medicines is accelerating its strategic positioning in this field, progressively building a research and development pipeline with global competitiveness. Leveraging its proprietary AI+mRNA platform and its leading clinical position in China, Everest Medicines is currently at a critical juncture for industrialization and valuation growth. The upcoming readout of first-in-human (FIH) clinical trial data for EVM16 is expected to further release clinical and commercial potential, continuing to attract focus from the market and investors, and helping the company achieve a significant leap in value within the immunotherapy sector.

MSBT於4月8日推出,首個完整週的淨流入達7100萬美元。 pic.twitter.com/ooHzmOh8vB — Crypto News Hunters (@CryptoNewsHntrs) 2026年4月21日 這檔基金的覆蓋範圍也可能支撐其未來增長。Morgan Stanley擁有約16000名財務顧問,這些顧問在其財富管理平台上管理著大量客戶資產的投資准入。 不過,與規模更大的競爭對手相比,該基金的規模仍然很小。美國整體現貨比特幣ETF市場規模超過1000億美元,僅BlackRock的IBIT一檔產品管理的資產就超過530億美元。 鏈上數據顯示比特幣增持走勢穩定 區塊鏈數據為本次產品上市提供了另一個觀察角度。Arkham Intelligence標記的數據顯示,截至4月18日,與MSBT關聯的錢包持有1348枚BTC,當時價值約1.02億美元。 近期的存款記錄顯示該基金一直在增持比特幣。在4月18日的快照數據生成前不久,有超過1300萬美元的BTC流入。錢包活動情況與市場數據中看到的穩定淨流入走勢吻合。 該基金為投資者提供了無需直接託管的比特幣敞口,這樣的結構免去了很多投資者處理和存儲私鑰的風險,同時也符合顧問和財富管理機構適用的合規規則。 Morgan Stanley進場之前,現貨比特幣ETF自2024年初以來已經出現廣泛普及。這些產品讓投資者可以透過證券帳戶獲得受監管的比特幣投資渠道,這種模式同時吸引了散戶和機構資金。 增長機遇面臨市場壓力與加劇的競爭挑戰 MSBT的下一階段表現可能取決於顧問的採用率。分析師認為Morgan Stanley龐大的財富管理網絡是潛在的增長引擎,該網絡內的更廣泛使用將在長期帶來更多資產流入。 Strategy的總裁兼首席執行官Phong Le在X上給出了一項估算,他寫道:「Morgan Stanley財富管理部門管理的資產規模約為8萬億美元,建議配置0-4%的比特幣。」他補充稱:「2%的配置就相當於1600億美元,大約是IBIT規模的三倍。」 與此同時,更廣闊的市場正面臨資金流出。自11月以來,現貨比特幣ETF類別總計有約50億美元資金流出。在MSBT上市當天,整個類別錄得9390萬美元的淨流出。 競爭也在不斷加劇。Goldman Sachs已經提交了比特幣溢價收益ETF的申請,BlackRock也在研發收益導向型比特幣產品,各家機構都在尋找吸引資產的新方式。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。
