Pyth Network Partners with Integral to Democratize Access to Financial Market Data
LONDON - May 7, 2025 (Bitwire) -- Pyth Network ('Pyth'), the universal price layer revolutionizing market data, today announced a new partnership with Integral, the leading currency technology partner to hundreds of global financial institutions. The collaboration marks a significant milestone in Pyth's mission to collect and distribute price data and rewrite the market data economy by making financial information affordable and accessible to all.
The partnership introduces a streamlined solution for institutional market participants to publish their financial market data to Pyth Network, which is currently home to over 1,200 active price feeds. Integral hosts this data on behalf of its clients, lowering the technical and logistical barriers that have historically prevented institutions from contributing to open data networks.
'The price of market data has been skyrocketing for decades—rising to record-breaking spending in 2024 alone,' said Mike Cahill, CEO of Douro Labs, a leading contributor to the Pyth Network. 'But, this 'old guard' model of exclusive access, premium pricing, and zero transparency is shifting. The 'new guard' model offers real-time feeds and affordable access for anyone, not just the elite financial powerhouses. This partnership with Integral demonstrates Pyth's commitment to growing this new model; they're working together to deliver the price of everything, to anyone, anywhere.'
Integral powers currency infrastructure for renowned institutions including Mizuho, Raiffeisen Bank, Pictet, and ODDO BHF. By partnering with Pyth, Integral will now bridge its traditional foreign exchange pipelines with decentralized finance, transforming centralized data sources into composable, on-chain assets.
'Integral has long been at the forefront of institutional trading technology, and our integration with Pyth Network reinforces our commitment to innovation and market accessibility,' said Harpal Sandhu, CEO of Integral. 'Through this collaboration, clients leveraging Integral's resilient and established crypto trading solutions can now become market data publishers on Pyth with no additional setup. This unlocks new opportunities for our clients to expand their presence in crypto while contributing to the broader ecosystem.'
The Integral partnership comes on the heels of other recent Pyth integration partnerships like Sygnum Bank, Kamino Finance, and CoinBase, as well as product feature updates to expand price feed coverage across markets, improve data accuracy by increasing access to multiple institutional sources, and broaden institutional participation in decentralized finance infrastructure.

These are the foods getting more expensive - and why experts are so 'concerned'
Beef, coffee, chocolate and butter prices are on the rise - here's what it means for you. Food prices have skyrocketed in the last month, with the price of beef and veal going up by nearly a quarter, inflation figures released on Wednesday show. Juice, coffee and chocolate are among the basics that have dramatically risen in price, with experts warning that rising food costs "are particularly concerning". Overall inflation has risen by 3.8% in July, edging up from 3.6% in June, according to the Consumer Prices Index (CPI), the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said. Inflation rose by more than expected as demand for summer travel pushed up air fares and food prices continued to climb, according to official figures. Here's what we know about the food price rises, why it is concerning, and what it means for the wider cost of living in the UK at the moment. What food prices are increasing the most? According to the index, these are the foodstuffs that went up in price the most. Beef and veal: 24% Butter: 18% Coffee: 18% Chocolate: 17% Milk: 11% Juice: 8% Bakery goods: 7% Overall food and non-alcoholic beverages inflation: 4.9% (up from 4.5% in June) Why are food prices going up? Climate change is said to be a big factor in the increase, with widespread droughts in the UK this summer leading to smaller crop yields. "As the UK experiences one of our worst droughts in living memory, the impact of climate change on these figures is clear to see," Tom Lancaster, land, food and farming analyst at the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit, said. "The Bank of England stated in a report this month that extreme weather is now one of the main drivers of food price inflation, and that climate change-related impacts may prevent it from coming down as expected towards the end of this year. "We can already see the impacts of this year's drought starting to come through in some vegetable prices, and inflation for coffee, chocolate and tea are all back up, all crops that have been hit by extreme weather linked to climate change in recent months and years." Added to this, the Ukraine war has significantly disrupted global supply chains, particularly affecting energy and commodity prices, which in turn pushed up food prices globally and in the UK. To a lesser extent, the Israel Gaza war has also taken a toll, affecting global markets and shipping routes, causing further cost pressures on food imports. Why is it a problem? When food prices rise, the average customer faces some significant knock-on effects with how far they can stretch their budget. "Households are once again seeing the cost of their weekly shop climb, with food inflation now up by 1.9% in just four months," Kris Hamer, director of insight for trade body the British Retail Consortium, said. "This surge has been a key driver behind headline inflation, alongside a rise in transport costs, piling fresh pressure on families already being forced to cut back." At the sharper end, more struggling families have to turn to foodbanks for support to deal with rising food costs. "The rising cost of food is particularly concerning for families as it comes on in the wake of a period of steep increases in the cost of essentials and rising food bank use," James Smith, Research Director at the Resolution Foundation, said. It looks like inflation is only set to continue, indicating that food prices might be higher for longer. The Bank of England is expecting CPI inflation to continue rising to a peak of 4% in September, before price rises start to ease. It's not great for the central bank, which is tasked with keeping inflation at 2%. "UK inflation looks increasingly like an international outlier as CPI stepped up again in July to reach 3.8 per cent, a nineteen-month high, with a worrying increase in the inflation rate of essentials," Smith added. However, Harmer added that there was some "limited relief" for consumers with clothing and footwear inflation easing and some everyday food items like olive oil, butter and cheese falling month-on-month. What other prices have risen? With inflation rising across the board, food is not the only good affected. Air fares soared by 30.2% between June and July, the biggest jump since the collection of monthly data began in 2001. The average price of petrol rose by 2p per litre between June and July, and the average diesel price by 2.9p per litre over the period, the data showed. Prices across UK restaurants and hotels also increased last month, largely driven by a jump in overnight hotel stays booked the night before. Added to this, because inflation is still fairly high at 3.8%, the Bank of England is less likely to lower interest rates anytime soon. Homeowners celebrated a small victory when the average two-year mortgage deal dropped below 5% on 13 August, the first time since Liz Truss's mini-budget sent them skyrocketing in 2022. However, they are sadly likely to stagnate again until inflation drops. When it comes to the average person's spending power, even with current inflation levels, they are still said to be in a better position than they were last year. According to the Consumer Prices Index, annual wage growth in real terms was 1.5% for regular pay and 1.1% for total pay. Even though prices are rising, this suggests wages are rising enough for workers to have slightly more spending power than a year ago when adjusted for inflation. Responding to the increase, Rachel Reeves acknowledged that there was 'more to do to ease the cost of living' following the figures. The chancellor said: "We have taken the decisions needed to stabilise the public finances, and we're a long way from the double-digit inflation we saw under the previous government, but there's more to do to ease the cost of living. "That's why we've raised the minimum wage, extended the £3 bus fare cap, expanded free school meals to over half a million more children and are rolling out free breakfast clubs for every child in the country."

Pfizer battles another Paxlovid lawsuit from Enanta
If you don't succeed at first, try again – in separate regions. That's the motto Enanta Pharmaceuticals is following, at least, after disclosing it has sued Pfizer in Europe over a patent infringement relating to Covid-19 treatment pill Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir). In June 2022, Enanta filed a lawsuit against Pfizer in a US district court in Massachusetts, claiming that the big pharma company infringed on a patent describing protease inhibitors invented by its scientists. Enanta has now followed that up with another filing in Europe, making the same accusation. Since being emergency authorised in 2021, anti-viral Paxlovid has generated Pfizer more than $26bn in global revenue. This includes a staggering $18.9bn in 2022 when Covid-19 cases were still prevalent. Despite waning demand for Covid-19 treatments, the pill still brought in $1.2bn in 2024, buoyed by government orders. However, Enanta – known for co-developing hepatitis C virus treatment glecaprevir/pibrentasvir with AbbVie – believes Pfizer designed Paxlovid via unlawful means. The US biotech stated it is 'seeking a determination of liability for use and infringement of European Patent No. EP 4 051 265 (the '265 Patent) in the manufacture, use and sale of Pfizer's Covid-19 antiviral, Paxlovid'. In an emailed statement to Pharmaceutical Technology, a Pfizer spokesperson said: 'We are confident in our intellectual property (IP) surrounding Paxlovid and will respond in due course in court.' The lawsuit, filed in the European Union's (EU) Unified Patent Court (UPC), targets Pfizer's commercial activity in the 18 countries of the EU. The company confirmed the '265 patent in question is the European counterpart of US patent number 11,358,953 (the '953 Patent) that is the centre of the US lawsuit. Although it is technically ongoing, Enanta's US lawsuit hit a major roadblock. In December 2024, a federal judge in Massachusetts sided with Pfizer, granting that the '953 patent is invalid. Enanta confirmed at the time it would appeal the decision, adding it 'believes strongly in the merits of our case'. Pfizer reported strong Q2 2025 results this month, bucking a tepid earnings window that gripped the wider pharma industry. Sales for the Paxlovid grew 71% while the Covid-19 vaccine Comirnaty revenue surged 95%. However, the legal challenge posed by Enanta marks the second issue Pfizer has had to firefight this week. The big pharma company reported a Phase III trial failure for a sickle cell disease candidate purchased as part of a $5.4bn takeover of Global Blood Therapeutics in 2022.
