SummaryCompaniesNatWest aims to expand wealth management business with Evelyn acquisitionDeal "transformational" for NatWest, analyst saysDeal funded from existing resourcesNatWest announces 750 million pound share buybackFeb 9 (Reuters) - NatWest Group (NWG.L), opens new tab has agreed to buy one of Britain's largest wealth managers, Evelyn Partners, for 2.7 billion pounds ($3.68 billion), including debt, in a bid to expand its wealth management business, the British lender said on Monday.

NatWest is following rivals such as HSBC and Lloyds in boosting wealth management offerings in recent years, as British lenders increasingly target the fee-based business to offset an expected decline in interest income as central bank rates fall.

The combined company will have total assets under management and administration of 127 billion pounds.

NatWest expects the deal to generate about 100 million pounds in annual cost savings and also announced a 750 million pound share buyback.

The deal creates Britain's largest private banking and wealth management business and transforms NatWest Group's savings and investment offering for its 20 million customers, the British lender said.

TRANSFORMATIONAL DEAL FOR NATWESTEvelyn's private equity shareholders, Permira and Warburg Pincus, kicked off a sale of the wealth manager last year, which also drew interest from Barclays (BARC.L), opens new tab, Lloyds (LLOY.L), opens new tab, and the Royal Bank of Canada (RY.TO), opens new tab, Reuters reported.

"We are somewhat surprised that NWG appear to have come out on top, given how tightly the CEO holds the bank's purse strings," RBC Capital Markets analyst Benjamin Toms said in a note.

"Although we consider this to be a bolt on transaction, it would be transformational, filling the gap NWG has in its affluent wealth offering."

Permira has Evelyn Partners, formerly known as Tilney Smith & Williamson, since 2014, funding its growth into a wealth manager overseeing 63 billion pounds in client assets.

The transaction will be funded from existing resources and is expected to reduce NatWest's core equity tier 1 ratio by about 130 basis points, the bank said.

Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, continues to investigate potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of America's Car-Mart, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRMT) resulting from allegations that America's Car-Mart may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.

So What: If you purchased America's Car-Mart securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. The Rosen Law Firm is preparing a class action seeking recovery of investor losses.

What to do next: To join the prospective class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=46025 https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=39889or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

What is this about: On September 4, 2025, during market hours, Benzinga published an article entitled "America's Car-Mart Stock Plunges After Sales Volume Dip, Delinquency Uptick." The article stated that America's Car-Mart, Inc. stock was trading "lower after the company reported first-quarter results. The company reported a first-quarter loss of 69 cents per share, compared with a net loss of 15 cents per share in the year-ago period."

On this news, America's Car-Mart's stock fell 18.2% on September 4, 2025.

Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions.  Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved, at that time, the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

BEIJING, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Alibaba's (9988.HK), opens new tab artificial intelligence chatbot Qwen has temporarily stopped issuing coupons due to customer overload, hampering a new campaign to promote the tool's capabilities beyond simply answering questions to assist shopping.

Qwen began offering coupons to users on Friday that allow for in-app purchases from Alibaba-owned retail platforms using chatbot prompts alone. The initiative is the first phase in a 3-billion-yuan ($433 million) plan to attract more users to the chatbot during China's annual Spring Festival holiday.

Since last month, Alibaba has sought to make Qwen a one-stop shop where users can access its other apps directly in the chatbot and complete payments, much like Google (GOOGL.O), opens new tab integrates its Gemini chatbot into apps like Maps.

But the rollout of what the e-commerce giant calls the chatbot's Agentic AI strategy has been marred by technical difficulties since the start of the coupon giveaway.

Alibaba said that 10 million orders were placed within the first nine hours of the campaign. And faced with an overwhelming flood of attempted orders over the weekend, Qwen announced on Sunday on its official Weibo channel that it was overloaded and pleaded for users to give the chatbot a break.

Repeated purchase prompts on Monday generated different versions of a refusal, citing user oversubscription, Reuters checks showed.

"Everyone's enthusiasm for experiencing AI shopping is too high! Currently there are too many participants in 'Qwen free order', we are working tirelessly to maintain the campaign's experience," replied Qwen to one of the purchase prompts on Monday.

The chatbot added that shoppers would still have time to redeem their coupons, which will remain valid until February 28.

Alibaba declined to comment further on the technical difficulties.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 9, 2026) - PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (CSE: PREV) (OTCQB: PRVCF) (FSE: 18H0) (the "Company" or "PreveCeutical") is pleased to announce it has filed an International (PCT) patent application on February 5, 2026, having the application no. PCT/US2026/014110, and entitled "Delivery of CNS-active therapeutic agents".

The international patent application covers innovative methods and formulations aimed at addressing longstanding challenges in the treatment of neurological diseases and disorders. Of particular interest is Parkinson's disease, which is a neurodegenerative condition afflicting over 10 to 12 million globally, and it is cited as the 2nd most common neurodegenerative disorder after dementia. Progressive symptoms of Parkinson's disease include unilateral movement issues, typically presenting as a slight tremor and quiet speech in the early stages, through to severe disability that impacts eating, bathing and dressing, complemented by cognitive decline.

Depletion of the neurotransmitter dopamine in the brain is the key driver of Parkinson's. Direct supplementation with dopamine is not currently a viable option, due to it being unable to cross the blood-brain barrier, and treatments most typically involve oral administration of the dopamine precursor, levodopa (L-dopa). As Parkinson's is a progressive disease also impacting the health of dopaminergic neurons, their gradual decline in numbers is inevitable, reaching a threshold that renders supplementation with L-dopa ineffective.

PreveCeutical has now developed an approach for the delivery of central nervous system (CNS)-active drugs, such as dopamine, directly to the brain, and formulations that are adapted for this delivery mode. By supplying the native neurotransmitter (dopamine) directly to the brain, the Company proposes circumventing the need to administer L-dopa, dopamine agonists and other therapeutics progressively prescribed for the management of Parkinson's across the spectrum of disease. Furthermore, this approach has the potential to offer patients in the advanced stages of Parkinson's a safe and effective treatment option, through direct replenishment of dopamine in the brain, potentially circumventing the need for advanced/invasive treatments.

More broadly, PreveCeutical's novel approach has the potential to address historical bottlenecks in the delivery of a range of peripherally-restricted therapeutics for CNS conditions, and it is actively exploring options to exploit these opportunities.

Commenting on the filing, PreveCeutical Chief Executive Officer Stephen Van Deventer stated, "Despite decades of research, there is still no proven clinical strategy for delivering dopamine directly to the brain. Our technology aims to change that, and we believe it represents an important step toward transforming the treatment landscape for Parkinson's disease and other central nervous system disorders."

The Company is not making any express or implied claims that its product and approach has the ability to manage Parkinson's disease at this time.

Although PreveCeutical believes that any such intentions, plans, estimates, beliefs, and expectations in this news release are reasonable, there can be no assurance that any such intentions, plans, beliefs, and expectations will prove to be accurate or successful.

Milano, 9 febbraio 2026 – 21shares, società leader a livello globale nello sviluppo e nel lancio di ETP su criptovalute, con sedi a Zurigo, Londra e New York, annuncia oggi la quotazione di 27 ETP - parte della sua gamma globale - sul mercato ETF Plus di Borsa Italiana, Gruppo Euronext. 

Per la prima volta in Italia gli investitori professionali avranno la possibilità di accedere a strumenti finanziari che permettono investimenti in criptovalute tramite ETP quotati su Borsa Italiana.

Si tratta del più grande lancio di ETP cripto su ETFplus e posiziona 21shares come il leader di settore anche in Italia per quanto riguarda la proposta di opzioni liquide, trasparenti, e dalla struttura nota per investire nelle principali criptovalute sul mercato tramite strategie collateralizzate.

Con questa quotazione l’Italia si allinea a tutti i principali mercati europei: ora gli investitori professionali italiani potranno crearsi una posizione verso numerosi asset digitali, tra cui Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple e Solana. Per quanto riguarda quest’ultimo, la società possiede la più grande riserva europea, con un valore di 1,4 miliardi di dollari.

Il vantaggio di investire attraverso uno strumento quotato come l’ETP permette agli investitori di esporsi all’andamento del prezzo di uno o più asset digitali, senza doverli detenere direttamente nel proprio portafoglio di investimenti, come accade per l’acquisto diretto tramite le piattaforme di exchange online. Gli ETP sulle cripto sono scambiati allo stesso modo degli ETF e offrono agli investitori la liquidità e la trasparenza che si aspettano da un prodotto quotato.

Duncan Moir, Presidente di 21shares, ha dichiarato: “Siamo elettrizzati per il debutto di 21shares in Italia., il Paese è sempre stato un punto di riferimento per il nostro business in Europa. Questa quotazione sottolinea il crescente riconoscimento internazionale delle cripto come asset class di investimento, nonché il nostro impegno nel rendere l'accesso alle criptovalute più semplice ed immediato per gli investitori di tutto il mondo.”

Massimo Siano, Vicepresidente e Responsabile per il Sud Europa di 21shares, ha affermato: “L’Europa è stata il pioniere mondiale negli investimenti in criptovalute tramite ETP, che sono stati quotati nelle borse del Vecchio Continente ben prima che gli ETF sulle cripto fossero quotati negli Stati Uniti. Siamo quindi molto felici di poter proporre le nostre soluzioni anche agli investitori italiani. Crediamo che le criptovalute siano un asset class fondamentale per diversificare al meglio il portafoglio. Con il lancio su Borsa Italiana, mettiamo a disposizione la più vasta gamma di ETP su asset digitali, per cercare di rispondere al meglio alle loro richieste e necessità.”

Con 59 ETP quotati in Europa e circa 6 miliardi di dollari di asset in gestione a livello globale, 21shares continua a essere leader di settore nel fornire un’esposizione accessibile e trasparente al crescente ecosistema degli asset digitali.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 9, 2026) - Inspiration Energy Corp. (CSE: ISP) (WKN: A40GPX) (OTCID: ISPNF) ("Inspiration" or the "Company") was recently granted a drill permit for the Rottenstone North gold/copper project in Northern Saskatchewan and is now in the final stages of drill hole planning and expects to commence drilling shortly. Inspiration is one of the largest landholders in what is rapidly emerging as one of Canada's most exciting new volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) and gold exploration districts.

"Inspiration has a 100 percent ownership in over 85,000 acres in the Rottenstone Gold/Copper camp," stated Charles Desjardins, chief executive officer of Inspiration. "We are strategically positioned along trend with recent discoveries and have cutting-edge satellite data identifying multiple gold-copper targets. Our technical team is finalizing drilling plans right now, and we anticipate launching our first drilling program shortly, at a time with historically high commodity prices. Inspiration has a tiny market cap and success in the ground could lead to outsized positive results. Management is very optimistic about the next few months with possible game-changing drilling results upcoming."

The Rottenstone North project (4,512 hectares), along with the acquisition of the Rottenstone West project (31,011 hectares), this past August (see Company news release Aug. 22, 2025), brings the total coverage of this exciting new VMS-gold district and trend to over 35,500 hectares (86,487 acres).

The Rottenstone North and West gold and base metal projects are located immediately west and southwest of Ramp Metals Inc.'s discoveries on its copper-gold sulphide targets at Rush (see Ramp Metals' news release dated April 29, 2015) and Ranger (see Ramp Metals' news release June 17, 2015).

With just over 40 million shares outstanding, Inspiration offers shareholders strong upside leverage to exploration success. Its tight capital structure, combined with large-scale landholdings, advanced geophysics and near-term drill readiness, positions the Company to participate meaningfully in one of Canada's most promising new discovery corridors.

Inspiration's Rottenstone projects are located along the same northeast-southwest-trending geological structures that host multiple high-grade showings in the region, including 73.55 g/t Au over 7.5 metres at the Ranger showing and 1.61% Cu at the Rush VMS discovery (see Ramp Metals' news release June 17, 2024).

Notably, historical work on the Rottenstone West project identified multiple massive sulphide occurrences as early as the 1950s. These areas remain untested by modern exploration methods, presenting compelling targets for new discoveries within a top-tier mining jurisdiction, as ranked by the Fraser Institute.

Recently, at the 100%-owned Rottenstone North gold/copper project, the Company completed an Advanced Atomic Mineral Resonance Tomography (AMRT) satellite survey. The AMRT survey identified numerous high-priority gold and copper targets along the eastern property boundary of Rottenstone North -- parallel and on trend with Ramp's Rush copper-gold-silver discovery, located just a few kilometres away. Inspiration's planned drilling program, scheduled for early 2026, will test several of these targets.

Management cautions that past results or discoveries on properties in proximity to Inspiration may not necessarily be indicative of the presence of mineralization on the Company's properties.

Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, continues to investigate potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of Alvotech (NASDAQ: ALVO) resulting from allegations that Alvotech may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.

So What: If you purchased Alvotech securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. The Rosen Law Firm is preparing a class action seeking recovery of investor losses.

New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - February 9, 2026) - Levi & Korsinsky notifies investors that it has commenced an investigation into Boston Scientific Corporation ("Boston Scientific Corporation") (NYSE: BSX) concerning potential violations of the federal securities laws.

On February 4, 2026, Boston Scientific reported fourth-quarter 2025 results. While the company exceeded analyst expectations for earnings per share and total revenue, its electrophysiology segment reported sales of $890 million, approximately $43 million below the $933 million consensus estimate. The EP segment has been positioned as the primary growth engine for the company, driven by its FARAPULSE pulsed field ablation system and related cardiac rhythm management products.

The electrophysiology market represents one of the fastest-growing areas in cardiovascular medicine, with pulsed field ablation technology emerging as a potential replacement for traditional thermal ablation procedures. Boston Scientific entered this market through its acquisition of Farapulse in 2021 and has invested heavily in expanding manufacturing capacity and physician training programs. The company projected that global PFA penetration would reach 50% by the end of 2025 and grow to approximately 80% by 2028.

During the Q3 2025 earnings call on October 22, 2025, CEO Mike Mahoney stated the company was "guiding to organic growth of 11% to 13% for fourth quarter '25" and expressed that the company was "incredibly proud of our EP performance, with third quarter sales growing 63%." The company had emphasized EP growth rates of 94% in Q2 2025 and 63% in Q3 2025.

During the first Q&A exchange following the Q4 2025 earnings release, analysts noted the street was expecting approximately 25% EP growth for the quarter. Management's discussion indicated confidence in only approximately 15% growth going forward, representing a significant gap between market expectations and the company's internal outlook.

Following the earnings release, BSX shares fell 17.5% with the stock reaching a 52-week low of $75.50.

If you suffered a loss on your Boston Scientific Corporation securities and would like to explore a potential recovery under the federal securities laws, Learn More About the Investigation or contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. via email at [email protected] or call (212)363-7500 to speak to our team of experienced shareholder advocates.

Remote-First-Company/SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--For America's most anticipated football game, Coinbase designed a shared, high-energy karaoke experience for its community to participate in together.

VANCOUVER, BC, /PRNewswire/ -- Abitibi Metals Corp. (CSE:AMQ) (OTCQB:AMQFF) has taken a major step forward in establishing itself as a serious emerging copper-gold developer in Québec's Abitibi Greenstone Belt.

The updated estimate shows a 124% increase in total mineral resources since Abitibi optioned the project in 2023, reflecting the results of successive drilling campaigns completed over the past two years. 

Abitibi Metals Delivers 12.83% CuEq at B26 as High-Grade Zone Continues to Grow The update expands the Indicated resource to 13.0 million tonnes (Mt) grading 2.1% copper equivalent (CuEq) and defines an additional 12.3 Mt Inferred resources grading 2.2% CuEq, bringing total defined resources to more than 25 Mt.

According to the company, the growth in tonnage has been achieved while maintaining consistent grades across the deposit, a key objective outlined when Abitibi acquired its interest in B26.

A Resource That Has Crossed an Important Threshold

The updated mineral resource estimate for the B26 deposit is supported by a substantially expanded technical database, incorporating 356 drill holes totaling 172,164 metres of drilling. This includes 102 drill holes completed by Abitibi Metals Corp. (CSE:AMQ) (OTCQB:AMQFF) in 2024 and 2025, as well as 191 holes previously drilled by SOQUEM, a subsidiary of Investissement Québec.

Within the Indicated category, resources increased 14% to 13.0 million tonnes, up from 11.3 million tonnes in the prior estimate. The Indicated resource grades 1.2% copper, 1.2% zinc, 0.44 g/t gold, and 30.8 g/t silver, equivalent to 2.1% copper equivalent and 2.8 g/t gold equivalent. 

On a contained metal basis, the Indicated resource includes approximately 340 million pounds of copper, 332 million pounds of zinc, 184 thousand ounces of gold, and 12.8 million ounces of silver, or 595 million pounds of copper equivalent and 1.2 million ounces of gold equivalent.

The estimate also includes 67,842 assays with an average sample length of 1.20 metres, forming the basis of the current geological model. The mineral resource was estimated using an underground mining scenario with an in-situ cut-off value of US$100 per tonne, based on long-term metal price assumptions and established processing recoveries.

Approximately 9% of the tonnage increase in the updated estimate is attributable to revised commodity price assumptions, with the balance driven by additional drilling and the lateral and vertical extension of existing mineralized zones. The effective date of the mineral resource estimate is January 1, 2026, and the estimate was prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and CIM standards.

Growth Across All Metals, Not Just Tonnage

In addition to increased tonnage, the updated resource reflects material growth in contained metal across all reported commodities compared with the prior estimate.

Contained copper increased by 40%, gold by 22%, silver by 21%, and zinc by 9%. These increases reflect continued expansion of the polymetallic system across both Indicated and Inferred resource categories.

The resource estimate was completed using conservative underground cut-off assumptions and long-term pricing inputs, consistent with prior estimates.

Mineralization Remains Open With Drilling Momentum Building

Despite the increase in defined resources, mineralization at B26 remains open both laterally and at depth. The current estimate is based on drilling concentrated within established zones, leaving multiple areas available for further step-out and down-plunge drilling.

Abitibi Metals Corp. (CSE:AMQ) (OTCQB:AMQFF) has commenced a fully funded 40,000-metre Phase 4 drill program, which includes a winter drilling campaign of approximately 15,000 to 20,000 metres. Drilling is expected to continue through 2026.

A Cornerstone Asset in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt

B26 is located just seven kilometres from the former Selbaie mine, placing it within an established mining district with access to infrastructure, skilled labor, and a long history of successful development.

The deposit has now reached a level of scale and continuity that supports its advancement as a cornerstone copper-gold VMS asset within the Abitibi Greenstone Belt. As the resource continues to grow, B26 increasingly anchors Abitibi Metals' broader strategy of building a high-quality portfolio focused on Québec.

About Abitibi Metals Corp.

Abitibi Metals Corp. is dedicated to acquiring and exploring mineral properties within Quebec, with a particular emphasis on high-quality base and precious metal assets that offer significant potential for growth and expansion.

The company's flagship B26 Polymetallic project, which has been optioned from SOQUEM, hosts a substantial and growing resource base.

The B26 project is strategically located just 7 kilometres southeast of the formerly producing Selbaie mine. This proximity provides the project with access to key infrastructure required for potential mine development.

In addition to the B26 Deposit, Abitibi's portfolio includes the Beschefer Gold project, historical drilling has identified four notable, historical intercepts with a metal factor of over 100 g/t gold highlighted by 55.63 g/t gold over 5.57 metres (BE13-038) and 13.07 g/t gold over 8.75 metres (BE12-014) amongst four modelled zones.  These promising findings highlight the potential for further gold discoveries within the project area.

About SOQUEM:

SOQUEM, a mineral exploration company and subsidiary of Investissement Québec, is dedicated to promoting the exploration, discovery and development of mining properties in Quebec. SOQUEM also contributes to maintaining strong local economies. Proud partner and ambassador for the development of Quebec's mineral wealth, SOQUEM relies on innovation, research and strategic minerals to be well-positioned for the future.

WISeKey’s WISe.Art and GMA Once Again Revolutionize the Future of Art and Technology in an Extraordinary Event in Venice

Geneva, Switzerland, February 9, 2026 – WISeKey International Holding Ltd (“WISeKey”) (SIX: WIHN, NASDAQ: WKEY), a leading global cybersecurity, blockchain, and IoT company, today announces that its subsidiary, WISe.Art which focuses on trusted blockchain NFTs and operates the WISe.ART marketplace for secure NFT transactions, and Global Market of Artification (GMA) is an innovative company, focused on offering NFT services, will be organizing Art&DeepTech Convergence, an international event and exhibition that will mark a new, fundamental milestone in the convergence of art, advanced technologies, and space in Venice, Italy in September 2026. Venice, cradle of the Renaissance and historic crossroads of cultures, will become the global laboratory of a new creative era, where technological innovation is placed at the service of artistic expression and human values.

A Technological Infrastructure Serving Artistic Creation
Art&DeepTech Convergence is built upon a next-generation technological infrastructure integrating generative artificial intelligence, cognitive robotics, advanced blockchain, certified tokenization, post-quantum cybersecurity, and satellite connectivity. The event will demonstrate how these technologies do not replace the artist, but rather amplify creative capacity, protect artworks, and enable global dissemination.

Both digital and physical artworks will be registered and protected through certified digital identity systems, ensuring authenticity, traceability, copyright protection, and continuity over time, even within digital and decentralized environments.

Art in Space: The WISeSat Constellation as a New Cultural Frontier
A defining feature of the event will be the Art in Space program, which leverages WISeKey’s WISeSat satellite constellation as an orbital cultural infrastructure. WISeSat, another subsidiary of WISeKey, focuses on space technology for secure satellite communication, specifically for IoT applications. Through secure end-to-end connections and certified transmission systems, selected artistic content will be associated with space missions, creating a symbolic and technological archive of 21st-century art.

Space thus becomes not only a technological domain, but a new narrative and cultural space, where art takes on a universal and intergenerational dimension.

WISeRobots and Human-Centric Artificial Intelligence
Within the exhibition spaces, WISeRobots will operate as intelligent cultural mediators, powered by conversational AI models trained on artistic, historical, and critical content. These robots will be able to engage in dialogue with visitors, adapt language to context, facilitate interactions during round tables, and collect real-time feedback, transforming the visit into a personalized and dynamic experience.

The AI employed will follow a human-centric and ethical approach, designed to enhance cultural diversity, creativity, and critical thinking.

Digital Immersion and AI-Generated Environments
The exhibition journey will include advanced digital immersion environments generated by AI and accessed through multisensory installations. Images, sounds, data, and narratives will be created and transformed in real time, giving rise to evolving artistic universes in which the visitor is not a passive observer, but an integral part of the artwork.

These environments represent a new exhibition paradigm: art as a living system, capable of reacting, learning, and evolving over time.

Renaissance Coin and Artech Fund: Technology and Cultural Finance
During the event, the Renaissance Coin, based on secure and sustainable blockchain technologies, and the Artech Fund, a fund dedicated to supporting high-tech artistic projects, will be launched. Together, these initiatives introduce new models of transparent cultural finance, enabling artists to access global resources and allowing investors to actively participate in the development of the art of the future.

A Global Platform of Artists and Innovators
Thousands of artists already active on the WISe.ART platform will take part in the event, presenting works that integrate AI, data, robotics, and immersive media. Venice will thus become the physical hub of a global creative network, where technology enables collaboration, inclusion, and the protection of artistic value on a worldwide scale.

Venice 2026: A Technological and Human Renaissance
With Art&DeepTech Convergence, WISe.ART and GMA affirm a clear vision: the future of art passes through technology, but remains profoundly human. Venice 2026 will stand as the symbol of a new Renaissance, where space, artificial intelligence, digital security, and creativity converge to build a more open, secure, and universal cultural future.

WISe.ART also introduces a unique dimension of satellite-enabled art connectivity through the WISeSat constellation, enabling art projects that are globally accessible, resilient, and independent of traditional terrestrial networks. This allows artists and institutions to deploy, synchronize, and authenticate digital artworks across borders, remote locations, exhibitions, and even space-enabled installations, ensuring continuous availability and sovereign data control.

Beyond a marketplace, WISe.ART acts as a living laboratory for the convergence of art and advanced technologies, combining blockchain, AI, robotics, satellite communications, and quantum-safe security. It empowers artists to explore new creative frontiers while providing collectors and institutions with absolute confidence that the artworks they acquire are secure, verifiable, tamper-proof, and enduring.

By merging human creativity with trusted, post-quantum and space-based digital infrastructure, WISe.ART lays the foundation for a new cultural era, where art is not only created for the future, but protected for it.

BNB trades at $641 with oversold RSI at 26.20, suggesting potential bounce toward $750-$800 in coming weeks despite bearish momentum signals.

BNB Price Prediction Summary • Short-term target (1 week): $680-$700 • Medium-term forecast (1 month): $750-$800 range
• Bullish breakout level: $662.92 • Critical support: $621.52

Binance Coin (BNB) is currently navigating through oversold territory, presenting both risks and opportunities for traders as we analyze the latest technical indicators and market dynamics.

What Crypto Analysts Are Saying About Binance Coin While specific analyst predictions are limited in recent days, historical forecasts from January 2026 suggested BNB could reach between $950 and $1,050 by February 2026. However, the current price action at $641.37 indicates these bullish projections have yet to materialize.

According to on-chain data and technical analysis platforms, BNB's current positioning suggests a potential reversal setup is forming. The token's performance relative to its moving averages and momentum indicators provides mixed signals that warrant careful examination.

BNB Technical Analysis Breakdown The technical landscape for BNB presents a compelling oversold scenario. With the RSI reading at 26.20, Binance Coin has entered deeply oversold territory, historically a precursor to potential price bounces. This extreme reading suggests selling pressure may be nearing exhaustion.

The MACD histogram sits at 0.0000 with both MACD and signal lines converging at -67.85, indicating bearish momentum is potentially stalling. This convergence often precedes trend changes, though confirmation is needed through price action.

BNB's position within the Bollinger Bands tells an important story. At 0.14 on the %B scale, the token is trading very close to the lower band at $582.25, while the middle band (20-day SMA) sits at $789.21. This positioning suggests BNB is significantly undervalued relative to its recent trading range.

Key resistance levels emerge at $652.15 (immediate) and $662.92 (strong), while support levels are established at $631.45 (immediate) and $621.52 (strong). The daily ATR of $52.71 indicates elevated volatility, typical during potential reversal periods.

Binance Coin Price Targets: Bull vs Bear Case Bullish Scenario The bullish case for this BNB price prediction centers on the oversold RSI condition and proximity to Bollinger Band support. A successful bounce from current levels could initially target the immediate resistance at $652.15, representing a 1.7% upside.

Breaking above $662.92 would signal a more significant reversal, potentially propelling BNB toward the 7-day SMA at $663.69. The ultimate bullish target lies near the EMA 12 at $712.86, offering approximately 11% upside from current levels.

For the Binance Coin forecast to turn decisively bullish, BNB would need to reclaim the $700 level and establish it as support, paving the way for a move toward $750-$800 by March 2026.

Bearish Scenario The bearish scenario cannot be ignored, particularly given BNB's position below all major moving averages. The 20-day SMA at $789.21 and 50-day SMA at $849.70 represent significant overhead resistance that could cap any recovery attempts.

A breakdown below the strong support at $621.52 could accelerate selling toward the Bollinger Band lower boundary at $582.25. This would represent a 9% decline from current levels and could trigger further technical selling.

The most concerning bearish scenario would see BNB breaking below $580, which could open the door for a more substantial correction toward $500-$520 levels.

Should You Buy BNB? Entry Strategy The current technical setup suggests a measured approach to BNB accumulation. The oversold RSI condition presents an attractive risk-reward scenario for patient investors willing to accept short-term volatility.

Consider dollar-cost averaging into positions between $630-$650, with initial stops below $615 to limit downside risk. This strategy allows participation in any oversold bounce while maintaining capital preservation principles.

For more aggressive traders, a breakout above $665 with volume confirmation could signal the start of a more substantial recovery, justifying larger position sizes with stops moved to breakeven levels.

Conclusion This BNB price prediction anticipates a recovery toward $750-$800 by March 2026, driven primarily by oversold technical conditions and historical support levels. The confluence of deeply oversold RSI, Bollinger Band positioning, and established support levels creates a foundation for potential upside.

However, investors should remain cautious given the broader bearish momentum and significant overhead resistance. The Binance Coin forecast carries moderate confidence due to mixed technical signals, suggesting position sizing and risk management remain paramount.

This analysis is for informational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. Cryptocurrency investments carry substantial risk, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Always conduct your own research before making investment decisions.
