Cryptocurrency Live News & Updates : Base Surpasses Solana in Daily Token Launches
03 Aug 2025 | 11:40:12 PM IST Base has overtaken Solana in daily token launches, fueled by Zora's Creator Coins and Coinbase's Base App rebranding, which has attracted nearly 3 million traders and $470M in volume. In a significant shift in the cryptocurrency landscape, Base, an Ethereum Layer 2 network backed by Coinbase, has surpassed Solana in daily token issuances, largely due to the rise of Zora's Creator Coins. The Base App's rebranding has driven user growth, resulting in over 1.6 million Creator Coins minted and nearly 3 million unique traders engaging with Zora. Meanwhile, the crypto market faced turbulence as Bitcoin stumbled, and Coinbase missed expectations, amidst growing momentum for stablecoin regulation. Additionally, a major revelation from Arkham highlighted a previously unreported Bitcoin hack from 2020, marking it as the largest crypto theft in history, with 127,000 BTC stolen from the Chinese mining pool Lubian. This incident raises concerns about operational security in the crypto space. As the market grapples with these developments, attention turns to cryptocurrencies like Pi, Cardano, and Flare, which are under scrutiny due to recent price movements and upcoming events. Overall, the dynamic interplay of innovation, regulation, and security continues to shape the evolving narrative of the cryptocurrency market. Show more

VinFast lines up big India plans; TN plant to start production on August 4
From Shimla in the north to Kochi in the south, a wave of 'curiosity' seems to be driving footfalls to VinFast India's dealership doors. As the Vietnamese giant gears up to start production at its Thoothukudi unit in Tamil Nadu from Monday, dealers said its premium electric SUVs — VF6 and VF7 — have seen interest from all over the country. Amid the media attention over its rival Tesla, industry experts said that VinFast is one of the most calculated entries by a foreign automobile company in India during the last six years. It is after South Korean major Kia and Chinese state-owned carmaker MG Motor's entry in 2019. However, what makes VinFast's debut special is its line-up of retail outlets panning across the country, in addition to its foray into charging infrastructure through subsidiary VinGreen. 'In Himachal Pradesh, curiosity over the products and their making is bringing us a lot of queries,' said Rajinder Vashisht, managing director (MD) of Devbhoomi Group, who is planning to come up with three outlets in the state. 'We are getting non-stop queries about the car, its performance, and mileage. VinFast is a trusted brand, and we are also planning to come up with charging stations across 12 districts,' Vashisht told Business Standard. Devbhoomi is already the biggest dealer of Hyundai Motor in Himachal Pradesh and also handles Skoda. The Thoothukudi plant is the first dedicated electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing unit by a foreign company in India. Though the pure-play EV player is yet to divulge any numbers, the company may set up around 1,000–1,500 charging stations in its initial phase. On July 8, the company had a meeting with all its dealers in Gurugram, and inauguration of retail outlets has already been happening in various cities. The cars are expected to be up for sale from the middle of August. Down south in Kochi, people's queries are more about the pricing. 'We are yet to inaugurate the showroom and started display only two weeks back. Still, we got more than 1,500 queries,' said Jimmy Jose, part of the EVM Group that is opening outlets in Kochi, Thiruvananthapuram, and Kozhikode. This is in addition to around 100 charging stations. 'We are a price-conscious market, and hence, it is the most critical part. We expect them to be competitively price, as the Indian market is seeing an EV boom. It is a serious player creating an entire ecosystem,' Jose added. VinFast India aims to launch 35 dealerships by year-end, across more than 27 cities. Besides Kia Motors and MG Motor, other major entries into the Indian market in recent times are Chinese major BYD in 2021, Tesla in 2025, and Datsun in 2013 (exited in 2022), among others. When Kia launched in India (backed by Hyundai), it had more than 150 outlets. Similarly, MG Motor also had more than 60 outlets. 'For any company looking into India's mass market, 35 is an average number. All its (VinFast's) dealers are big. Whether it will have enough products and at competitive prices is a question that can be seen with time,' said C S Vigneshwar, president of the Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (Fada). The current interest of global players is similar to the wave in the early 2000s, when companies like Renault (France), Nissan (Japan), and German majors Audi and Porsche entered the Indian retail race almost at the same time, said an industry expert. On Saturday, Pham Sanh Chau, chief executive officer (CEO) of VinFast Asia, inaugurated an outlet promoted by Maansarovar Motors in Chennai, its largest showroom in India. 'We aim to redefine the EV ownership journey — combining sustainability, technology, and world-class service. This marks not just a retail milestone, but a meaningful step towards co-creating a greener, smarter, and future-ready India,' Chau said. In Andhra Pradesh, too, customer interest is rising with each passing day. 'We are getting the majority of queries from youngsters. They are attracted because of the design and aggressive digital media marketing,' said Bhagat Singh of Sri Sri Automobility, which is planning to come up with two outlets in Vijayawada and Visakhapatnam. 'People are awaiting the pricing announcement now,' he added. Customers can also book their preferred VinFast SUV through the company's official website, for ₹1,000. As part of its India market entry, the company has formed strategic partnerships with RoadGrid, myTVS, and Global Assure to establish a nationwide network for charging and after-sales services.

‘We want to disrupt the luxury car segment'
How has been the drive so far, especially on the EV front? We are standing for technology and safety. Those two factors have been very well-received by our customers. As we look at our next chapter, we realise there are a couple of trends that are shaping the country. One, luxury brands across categories are actually moving at a very fast pace. Secondly, the penetration of new energy vehicles in the luxury segment is much higher than it is in mass brands. That also presents an opportunity as that segment has not really been disrupted yet. It's been headed by a couple of OEMs all along. We believe that much like in the mass segment, we have been able to create some level of disruption in the luxury space in such a short time. So, what are your plans for the luxe space? The first one is the Cyberster (launched on July 25 at Rs 75 lakh apiece), which is a roadster and is a sports car. The second is the M9, our first luxury MPV and it's the longest and the widest in the segment. Both these cars are going to stay true to our brand promise. These two vehicles will have technologies that you have never seen before and are going to have safety features that you have never seen before. And it is going to create experiences that you have never experienced before. You have seen a runaway success with the Windsor, primarily because of its pricing. Why the switch to luxury now? The overall luxe car space is about 50,000 units per annum. We are playing in a fairly niche segment, and that is the segment we want to disrupt. Given your relationship/partnership with the Chinese firm Saic Motor, how good or bad is your rare earth materials position? We are as impacted or not impacted as anybody else. It impacts not just EVs, but ICE products as well. And it is very important to ensure that as an industry, we work alongside the government and our national body SIAM to have this addressed. Our production is unlikely to be impacted in the immediate future, but we are watching the situation very carefully. Because at this point of time, we have a longer lead time of three-four months of cycle. What about your partnership with Saic? Is it not an advantage? I don't think it is a question of advantage or disadvantage. For one, it is a very serious issue. Because it impacts many components, both in ICE and EVs. If someone thinks this is only impacting EVs that is not true. Very importantly the SIAM is working very closely with the government to ensure that this issue does not impact production of all vehicles.
