Vietnamese electric vehicle maker VinFast Auto Ltd. is pushing expansion into Asian markets instead of North America and Europe, founder Pham Nhat Vuong said during a Hanoi shareholders' meeting for parent Vingroup JSC.
VinFast has no current plans to boost sales in North America and Europe due to high logistic fees and will instead focus on India, Indonesia and the Philippines, as well as the Vietnam market, said Vuong, who is also the company's chief executive officer.

What Next as Ether Zooms 7%, DOGE Leads Majors Gains Amid Bitcoin Euphoria
Ether posted a sharp 7% gain in the past 24 hours as bitcoin's steady climb past $109,000 boosted an otherwise flat crypto market. Dogecoin added over 5% to trade near 19 cents as of Asian afternoon hours Tuesday, while Cardano's ADA rose more than 5% as risk appetite returned after last week's volatility. Overall market capitalization rose more than 3%, with the broad-based CoinDesk 20 (CD20) adding 4%. The rebound came as traders continued to digest the latest US-China trade developments and braced for key inflation data this week that could set the tone for interest rate expectations. 'Bitcoin surged to around $110K as US-China trade talks resumed while the SEC greenlights new crypto ETFs, giving investors a renewed bullish sentiment,' said Augustine Fan, Head of Insights at SignalPlus, in an email to CoinDesk. 'We anticipate a continuation of the bullish trends as crypto attracts more institutions and retail investors with innovations and competitive returns.' Kay Lu, CEO of HashKey Eco Labs, said the market's reaction to the Trump-Musk spat last week may have been overdone. 'We're seeing some market recovery as fundamentals remain strong,' Lu said. 'The CPI data on Wednesday could be a key catalyst for price moves.' Meanwhile, Jeff Mei, COO at BTSE, warned that the current cycle may not be straightforward. 'We're seeing more options for investors to get crypto exposure, whether through ETFs, corporate treasuries, or stablecoin issuers,' Mei said. 'This cycle will be more nuanced as crypto matures as a macro asset class.' Nick Ruck, director at LVRG Research, noted that Bitcoin's price action above $109,000 showed resilience in the face of mixed signals. 'Bitcoin's climb amid geopolitical and macro headwinds reinforces its standing as a macro asset class,' Ruck said. 'ETF momentum has put crypto back on the radar for mainstream investors.'

Yuno Selects London as European Headquarters to Power Global Expansion
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Yuno, a leading global financial services orchestration platform, today announced it will be opening an office in London to serve as its official European headquarters. The announcement, made during London Tech Week 2025, marks a significant milestone in Yuno's international expansion and reinforces the company's commitment to serving its growing base of global merchants and partners from the heart of Europe's fintech capital. Establishing our regional headquarters in London is a key step in Yuno's mission to unify payments worldwide Share Yuno's choice of London as its European HQ is driven by several strategic factors: Global Fintech Hub: London's status as a world-leading center for finance, payments, and fintech innovation made it a natural choice for Yuno's European headquarters. The UK capital has attracted tens of billions in fintech investment in recent years, second only to Silicon Valley, and is home to a vibrant ecosystem of banks, startups, and nearly half of Europe's fintech 'unicorn' companies. Talent and Regulatory Support: The city offers access to a world-class pool of fintech talent and a progressive regulatory environment. Yuno will also benefit from the UK's supportive framework – from the Financial Conduct Authority's innovation sandbox to open banking initiatives – which foster fintech growth and innovation. Proximity to Clients and Partners: Establishing a base in London places Yuno close to many multinational merchants, financial institutions, fintech partners, and prospective clients, enabling them to more easily collaborate. Springboard for European Growth: London will serve as a strategic springboard for Yuno's expansion across Europe. The new office will coordinate regional growth efforts, allowing Yuno to tailor its payment solutions to European market needs and swiftly scale its presence in key markets across EMEA. This move comes as part of Yuno's broader international expansion strategy. Over the past year, the company has grown rapidly beyond its Latin American roots, launching in key Asian markets and other regions to meet rising demand for its platform. The company already supports leading global clients – including McDonald's, inDrive, Rappi, among others – processing transactions across more than 80 countries worldwide. Juan Pablo Ortega, Co-Founder and CEO of YUNO, said: 'London is at the heart of the global fintech revolution, so we are thrilled to make it our European home. By opening an office in London, we'll be able to work more closely with our European merchants and partners, recruit from a world-class talent pool, and innovate alongside the UK's vibrant fintech community. This city offers the perfect blend of financial heritage and forward-looking tech culture. Establishing our regional headquarters here is a key step in Yuno's mission to unify payments worldwide, and it positions us to accelerate our growth across Europe while continuing to deliver cutting-edge payment solutions to our clients.' UK Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, Peter Kyle, said: 'London is the world's financial capital, and Yuno setting down roots here is a major boost to the city. Such an innovative, creative and forward-looking business basing its European HQ here will only add to the UK's already-thriving fintech community. 'Fintech is so much more than a buzzword. It's how we ensure financial services are fit for the 21st century, and ensure that people right across the economy can get on with business at the fast pace which today's world demands. When our fintech sector succeeds, it means traditional businesses do too – and that leads to the growth and job creation that are at the heart of the Government's Plan for Change.' Yuno is already recruiting for roles in its London office across engineering, sales, and partnerships, aiming to build a diverse team that will drive its European operations. The company also intends to collaborate with UK fintech initiatives and industry groups – leveraging events like London Tech Week, innovation hubs, and sandbox programs – to share expertise and support the broader community. By planting roots in London, Yuno is positioning itself to both contribute to and benefit from the city's dynamic fintech scene, furthering innovation in digital payments.
