BCP launches British pound stablecoin

BCP Technologies has launched the first British pound-backed stablecoin from an FCA-registered crypto issuer. 0 BCP's tokenised GBP (tGBP) is backed 1:1 by reserves held in a segregated account at a UK-regulated financial institution and is fully redeemable for sterling at any time. BCP says the stablecoin is now live after more than a year-long review process, including a month in the FCA's regulatory sandbox. As the stablecoin market heats up, the firm is hoping to take advantage of the fact that GBP options have so far been limited, typically issued by offshore entities with low liquidity. It says that tGBP uses the reliability of UK financial infrastructure for the minting and redeeming process and has the flexibility and speed of blockchain technology. Benoit Marzouk, CEO, BCP Technologies, says: "tGBP supports a broad range of use cases: GBP self-custody for retail and corporates to bring an alternative from banks (and their inherent fractional reserve risk), cross-border payments, institutional collateral management, a GBP option for DeFi lending protocols and a GBP on-chain access for bitcoin-backed loans. "It might also be used in the future as the main GBP rail for settling tokenised assets like bonds, securities, or real estate."

Oreos and Chips Ahoy maker sues nation's fastest-growing grocery store: 'Blatant copies'

Snack giant Mondelez is suing Aldi for too closely resembling the packaging of its much-loved treats. Mondelez, the maker of Oreo, Chips Ahoy and Triscuit, alleges in the suit that Aldi's packaging for its own-brand alternatives 'blatantly copies' its own. Mondelez says the similar packaging is 'likely to deceive and confuse' consumers looking to buy its products. The main items concerned in the lawsuit are Aldi's peanut butter creme-filled cookies, chocolate chip cookies and Thin Wheat crackers that Mondelez alleges have packaging too similar to its own Nutter Butter, Chips Ahoy and Wheat Thins. Mondelez's filing at the the federal court for the Northern District of Illinois on May 27 asks the court to order Aldi to stop selling such products and to award the snack maker monetary damages. German supermarket Aldi has become the fastest-growing grocery chain in the US, with a business model that revolves around selling mostly own-brand products cheaper than popular name brands. 'You want to fly close enough to the sun because you want the benefit of something,' but not get too close, trademark lawyer Josh Gerben told CNN of Aldi's strategy. Gerben said the law is designed to protect consumers. 'I can go to the store and reasonably assume that I recognize the name, and that's who I'm buying from,' he told the outlet. But some customers 'think that they might be buying something from the Oreo brand or Wheat Thins, but they're actually getting a substitute.' Gerben added that lawsuits such as the one brought by Mondelez are taken on a case-by-case basis, and there's no 'bright line test' that would determine if a copycat brand has gone too far. Mondelez said in its filings that it had already had to pull up Aldi on copycat products of its other snacks including Oreo cookies, Teddy Grahams, Belvita biscuits and Triscuit crackers. In response Aldi eventually 'discontinued' and 'changed certain of these infringing products,' Mondelez said. Now however, the snack giant says Aldi must be stopped with the force of the law or it will 'irreparably harm' its brands. Aldi has faced legal action in the past for its own brand products too closely mimicking other brands. In December an Australian federal court said Aldi had violated copyright law by too closely copying the packaging of Hampden Holdings' Baby Bellies puffs on its alternative children's snacks. Aldi is currently in the midst of an aggressive expansion push in the US Aldi's CEO, Jason Hart, has led the company plans to open hundreds of new stores 'Aldi sought to use for its own commercial advantage the designs that had been developed by a trade rival,' according to the judge. Adding: 'I consider Aldi's conduct to be flagrant.' Aldi is continuing its rapid expansion in the US, recently announcing plans to open a further 225 stores this year, adding to its already 2,400 locations across the country. Its most recent openings include two new locations in Las Vegas in April. 'We've built our reputation on delivering real value without cutting corners,' Aldi's CEO, Jason Hart said. 'We're growing rapidly from coast-to-coast. Opening stores in Las Vegas gives us the opportunity for continued growth in this exciting market and allows us to bring an affordable and fun grocery experience to shoppers nationwide.'

Love Island star's secret connection to previous finalist is revealed ahead of their arrival in the villa

Love Island has confirmed the full line-up of contestants set to enter the villa for the 12th series on June 9, for another season of love triangles, bedroom trysts and messy breakups. After joining the popular dating series in January 2023, Maya Jama will once again be at the helm, as the ITV2 show celebrates a decade on screens and promises to have 'more twists and turns than ever before' in honour of the anniversary. This year's crop of hopefuls include a Declan Rice body double, a firebreather and a Maura Higgins lookalike. But one of the new Islanders may have an edge on his fellow castmates, as he boasts a connection to a previous finalist. According to The Sun, Dejon Noel-Williams is pals with 2023 star Tyrique Hyde, who made it all the way to the final with then-girlfriend Ella Thomas. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Dejon, who plays football semi-professionally alongside his job as a personal trainer, is also the son of former Premier League striker Gifton. Ex-Watford and Stoke striker Gifton, 45, began his professional football career in 1996 and last played for Codicote in 2017 before retiring. And during his time at Watford from 1996 to 2003, he was teammates with none other than Micah Hyde, who is the father of Tyrique. The two stars played together at the club and looked to have been good friends, with their sons Dejon and Tyrique being the same age. The two boys also both followed in their fathers' footsteps by becoming footballers themselves. And in his role as a personal trainer, Dejon also counts Tyrique as one of his clients, with the duo often sharing videos of them working out at the gym together. Ahead of his villa entrance, Dejon revealed that he 'met all kinds of famous people' because of his footballing father and even remarked on a meeting with David Beckham. He said: 'When I was younger it was weird because he was just my dad, but we'd go to a game and fans were asking for photos. I've met David Beckham, he was really nice.' Dejon, from London, boasts 11,000 followers on social media thanks in part to his regular shirtless gym snaps and in 2021, represented the Grenada national football team. His bio reads: 'I go beyond the gym -helping you build Strength, Confidence & Discipline for life.' Asked what he was looking for in a girl in the villa, he said he wanted someone who 'is beautiful on the inside and out, looks after themselves and is healthy'. Tyrique shot to fame on the 2023 series with his romance with Ella being heavily tested with some dramatic ups and downs. They exited the villa together, but shortly after announced they'd split in November 2023, before trying to give it another go. But, in February 2024, MailOnline exclusively revealed Ella and Tyrique had parted ways permanently - after six months as a couple. A source told MailOnline: 'Ella and Tyrique have decided it's time to go their separate ways. 'They have such love for each other, but they often struggle to get along and as viewers saw in the villa, they're always arguing.' Tyrique and Ella exited the villa together, but shortly after announced they'd split in November 2023, before trying to give it another go, before parting ways permanently in February last year (pictured in September 2023) Meanwhile, Dejon is not the only footballing connection in the upcoming series, as fans of the lower leagues may have spotted a star dubbed 'The Surrey Zidane'. Harry Cooksley, 29, is a midfielder for Southern League Premier South side Farnham Town, while also working as a gold trader and model. But more interestingly, his pastimes include being a body double for Arsenal and England star Declan Rice. Harry revealed: 'So when he does a shoot, any body close ups will actually be me. You'll never see my face, but you'll see my shoulder or chest, that kind of thing.' NAME: Sophie Lee AGE: 29 FROM: Manchester OCCUPATION: Motivational Speaker and Author WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?
