The company was founded by Keith Neumeyer on September 26, 1979 and is headquartered in Vancouver, Canada.

First Majestic Silver Corporation

First Majestic Silver Corporation is trending due to its strong financial performance, marked by record revenue and treasury position, which has fueled community excitement and multi-year highs. Investors are particularly focused on the company's unique position as a pure-play silver miner with its own mint, allowing it to capture premiums amid a broader rally in precious metals and anticipated supply dynamics.

Bitcoin is the world's first decentralized cryptocurrency, created in 2009 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto. It enables peer-to-peer electronic cash transactions without intermediaries like banks or governments, operating on a blockchain secured by Proof of Work mining and the SHA-256 cryptographic algorithm.   With a fixed supply cap of 21 million coins and programmatic halvings every four years that reduce miner rewards, Bitcoin is designed as a deflationary digital asset often called "digital gold." Its value stems from solving the double-spending problem without trusted intermediaries, creating the first truly scarce digital asset with censorship resistance and permissionless access that no government, corporation, or individual can control.  Bitcoin operates as a decentralized peer-to-peer network where transactions are recorded on a public ledger called the blockchain, distributed across thousands of computers globally. Transactions are grouped into blocks added approximately every 10 minutes through mining, where specialized computers compete to solve complex mathematical puzzles.   Bitcoin has achieved mainstream adoption through multiple vectors. The January 2024 SEC approval of 11 spot Bitcoin ETFs opened Bitcoin investment to traditional finance participants, and corporations like Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) are using Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset to protect against currency debasement, offering MSTR holders amplified exposure to Bitcoin.   The Bitcoin ecosystem continues to evolve with innovations like Ordinals, which emerged in January 2023 to enable NFT-like functionality directly on Bitcoin, and BRC-20 tokens, an experimental standard for creating fungible tokens using Ordinal inscriptions. BTCFi (Bitcoin Finance) represents emerging financial applications extending beyond Bitcoin's traditional role, with protocols like Babylon allowing Bitcoin holders to stake BTC to secure Proof of Stake chains.

Bitcoin

Bitcoin is experiencing significant downward pressure fueled by geopolitical tensions, substantial miner sell-offs, and large institutional liquidations, leading to a sharply divided community dialogue. Many foresee further declines and question its value proposition, while a segment views the current dip as a critical accumulation phase for a long-term store of value.

Ripple is the catchall name for the cryptocurrency platform, the transactional protocol for which is actually XRP, in the same fashion as Ethereum is the name for the platform that facilitates trades in Ether. Like other cryptocurrencies, Ripple is built atop the idea of a distributed ledger network which requires various parties to participate in validating transactions, rather than any singular centralized authority. That facilitates transactions all over the world, and transfer fees are far cheaper than the likes of bitcoin. Unlike other cryptocurrencies, XRP transfers are effectively immediate, requiring no typical confirmation time.  Ripple was originally founded by a single company, Ripple Labs, and continues to be backed by it, rather than the larger network of developers that continue bitcoin’s development. It also doesn’t have a fluctuating amount of its currency in existence. Where bitcoin has a continually growing pool with an eventual maximum, and Ethereum theoretically has no limit, Ripple was created with all of its 100 billion XRP tokens right out of the gate. That number is maintained with no mining and most of the tokens are owned and held by Ripple Labs itself — around 60 billion at the latest count.  Even at the recently reduced value of around half a dollar per XRP, that means Ripple Labs is currently sitting on around $20 billion worth of the cryptocurrency (note: Ripple’s price crashed hard recently, and may be worth far less than $60 billion by time you read this). It holds 55 billion XRP in an escrow account, which allows it to sell up to a billion per month if it so chooses in order to fund new projects and acquisitions. Selling such an amount would likely have a drastic effect on the cryptocurrency’s value, and isn’t something Ripple Labs plans to do anytime soon.  In actuality, Ripple Labs is looking to leverage the technology behind XRP to allow for faster banking transactions around the world. While Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are built on the idea of separating financial transactions from the financial organizations of traditional currencies, Ripple is almost the opposite in every sense.  XRP by Ripple price can be found on this page alongside the market capitalization and additional stats.

Ripple

Community sentiment around XRP is sharply divided as anticipation builds for the potential passage of the U.S. Clarity for Digital Assets Act, which many believe would accelerate institutional adoption, bolstered by recent news of financial integrations. While some investors are accumulating, seeing a unique opportunity, others remain highly skeptical, pointing to historical volatility and perceived market manipulation as signals for continued price pressure.

Ethereum is a global, open-source platform for decentralized applications. In other words, it is a decentralized blockchain platform that enables developers to build and deploy smart contracts and applications without central authority control. Unlike Bitcoin, which primarily functions as digital currency, Ethereum operates as a programmable global computer where developers can create any type of decentralized service.   The platform hosts over $14 billion in DeFi applications with hundreds of thousands of active users across financial protocols, NFT marketplaces, and gaming platforms. Its transition to Proof of Stake in September 2022 reduced energy consumption by over 99%, addressing environmental concerns while strengthening network security.  The network operates through thousands of independent validator nodes that process transactions and execute smart contracts on the Ethereum Virtual Machine. Smart contracts are self-executing programs written in Solidity that automatically carry out agreements when conditions are met, eliminating intermediaries like banks or brokers.   Validators stake ETH as collateral to propose and validate blocks, earning rewards for honest participation while facing penalties for malicious behavior. The EIP-1559 upgrade introduced a dynamic base fee mechanism that burns ETH with each transaction, creating deflationary pressure during high network activity when more ETH is burned than issued to validators.  Vitalik Buterin proposed Ethereum in 2013, but seven co-founders helped build it, including Gavin Wood who created Solidity and the EVM technical specification, and Joseph Lubin who founded ConsenSys. The project launched in July 2015 after raising over $18 million through crowdfunding, quickly becoming the largest blockchain developer community. Major milestones include the 2020 Beacon Chain launch, the 2021 London hard fork implementing fee burning, and the 2022 Merge to Proof of Stake.   Ether (ETH) serves multiple functions: paying transaction fees (gas), staking to secure the network and earn 3-5% annual yields, serving as collateral in DeFi protocols, and purchasing NFTs and digital assets. The asset is increasingly adopted by traditional institutions, with publicly traded companies adding ETH to corporate treasuries to generate staking yields while maintaining blockchain exposure, and in 2024, the SEC approved spot Ethereum ETFs, allowing traditional investors to gain exposure through conventional brokerage accounts.  Ethereum's roadmap focuses on dramatically increasing transaction capacity to over 100,000 per second, reducing confirmation times, and enhancing decentralization while maintaining security against future threats like quantum computing.

Ethereum is seeing heightened discussion as geopolitical tensions and ongoing market manipulation concerns drive significant bearish sentiment, while a contrarian faction eyes current price dips as a long-term accumulation opportunity.

The company’s stock has gained nearly 26% so far this year and jumped 173% in 2025, driven by strong demand for gold amid geopolitical tensions and the Federal Reserve’s interest rate cuts.The company said it expects total attributable production in 2026 of 5.3 million ounces, including 3.9 million ounces from managed operations and 1.4 million ounces from non-managed operations. In 2025, the company reported producing 5.89 million ounces of gold.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Production Issues At Newmont</h2>Chief Operating Officer Natascha Viljoen said the outlook for 2026 reflects year-on-year changes driven by planned mine sequencing at Ahafo South, Peñasquito, and Cadia, as well as the production impact from the Boddington bushfires in December.“We are pleased to report that the recovery following the fires is going well, and our team has successfully repaired the critical water supply infrastructure, and processing operations have now restarted at full levels,” she said, adding that the guidance also incorporated lower-than-expected ounces from Nevada Gold Mines and Pueblo Viejo, as indicated by the managing partner.&nbsp;Viljoen said that 2026 represents a trough in the company’s production cycle due to planned mine sequencing across several operations, as it positions the portfolio to return to production growth in 2027 and beyond, maintaining a longer-term outlook of nearly six million ounces of gold and 150,000 tonnes of copper annually.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Newmont Earnings Snapshot</h2>The company expects to invest about $1.4 billion in 2026 as it pushes ahead with major projects in execution, continues feasibility study work at Red Chris, and progresses mine life extensions at Lihir and Cerro Negro. “We expect 55% of total spend to be weighted to the second half of the year, primarily due to the start of the work on the Lihir nearshore barrier,” Viljoen added.Newmont said that the average realized gold price for the fourth quarter was $4,216, and attributable gold production in the quarter fell nearly 24% to 1.45 million ounces. The company's adjusted earnings per share came in at $2.52, compared with Wall Street expectations of $1.87, according to data from Fiscal AI.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Are Stocktwits Users Reacting?</h2>Retail sentiment on Newmont jumped to ‘bullish’ from ‘bearish’ territory a day ago, with message volumes at ‘extremely high’ levels, according to data from Stocktwits.A user on Stocktwits&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.stocktwits.com/JackNorthman/message/645389106">said</a> that the largest miners are having trouble raising annual production levels, and that this “could be interpreted as a good thing,” as supply is not infinite and is becoming harder to find.<stembedurl>https://www.stocktwits.com/JackNorthman/message/645389106</stembedurl>In the last 24 hours, the retail message volumes on the stock jumped 950% on the platform.
