Two Prime to Host The Signal, a Strategy Symposium for Institutional Leaders in Crypto and Global Macro
ASHEVILLE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Two Prime, an SEC-registered investment advisor and institutional lender, will host The Signal on September 25th in New York City – a curated, one-day strategy symposium for institutional leaders navigating the future of global macro and crypto markets. Bringing together influential voices from across finance, policy, and infrastructure, The Signal will explore how large holders of BTC – corporate treasuries, capital allocators, family offices, and miners – are positioning themselves amid high-rate volatility, geopolitical uncertainty, and bitcoin's ascendence as a strategic asset. Speakers include Paul Giordano, Vice President of Digital Asset Management at MARA; Christine Moy, Partner and Head of Digital Assets, Data & AI Strategy at Apollo; Chris Kuiper, Vice President of Research at Fidelity Digital Assets; Rory Murray, Director of Digital Asset Management at CleanSpark; Jeff Park, Chief Investment Officer at ProCap; and Bart Smith, CEO at Susquehanna Crypto – alongside other leaders driving institutional adoption of bitcoin and crypto credit. 'The Signal is for thoughtful leaders looking to stay ahead of the headlines with candid conversation and without media,' said Alexander Blume, CEO of Two Prime. 'In a noisy macro environment, when conviction is hard to come by, the most disciplined investors are turning inward as they refine frameworks, recalibrate risk, and rethink bitcoin's role. The Signal is where those ideas converge, and where forward-thinking leaders come to learn from each other and define what comes next.' Designed for serious allocators, The Signal offers a high-conviction lens into how major players are navigating market volatility, generating structured yield, and integrating bitcoin into modern treasury strategy.

Signal app 'national security scandal' may have claimed its first victim as Donald Trump plans to fire…
Trump's national security adviser Mike Waltz (Image: AP) Signal app, which became the centre of a national security controversy involving a high-ranking official in the Trump administration, appears to have directly led to significant consequences for US National Security Adviser Mike Waltz. Citing people familier with the matter, CNN reports that President Trump is expected to remove Waltz from his position in the coming days. The trouble began when it was discovered that Waltz was a participant in a group conversation on the app which was used to discuss highly sensitive military operations, specifically planned strikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen. A major breach of security occurred when a journalist was accidentally included in this conversation. The report said that Waltz's position became indefensible after he 'mistakenly' included the editor of The Atlantic in a Signal group chat discussing highly sensitive military strikes. This incident led to Trump considering his dismissal, though he initially didn't do it 'because he [Trump] didn't want to provide his enemies a perceived victory'. However, Waltz's standing within the West Wing never fully recovered, and his influence waned, particularly with Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, the report added. This would be the first major staff shakeup of Trump's second term. How Signal app may led to NSA Mike Waltz's dismissal The Signal incident proved to be a critical factor in Trump's decision. 'President Trump lost confidence in him a while ago,' an administration official told the publication. Trump reportedly couldn't move past how Waltz added a journalist to the chat. The incident also reportedly highlighted a double standard, as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who also shared sensitive information on Signal, is not facing dismissal. Trump believed Hegseth should be retained after a difficult confirmation process, and he enjoys greater support from the MAGA base. Meanwhile, Democrats on Capitol Hill criticised Trump's decision, arguing that Hegseth's actions were more serious.

Women's baseball debuts at the 2025 Canada Games. The N.L. trailblazer says it's a huge deal
Women's baseball will make its Canada Games debut in St. John's this summer, and hometown talent and history-maker Jaida Lee says it's a big step forward. Lee broke down the gender barrier during the 2022 Canada Games at the age of 16, pitching for the Newfoundland and Labrador's men's team and becoming the first woman to compete in baseball in Canada Games history. Her jersey, and the ball she threw for her first pitch, sit in the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame. "The experience was amazing. I met people from all around Canada that I still talk to now, and still see when I'm travelling," Lee told CBC Radio's The Signal Wednesday. Now, in her hometown, the 2025 Canada Games will mark the debut of women's baseball. Lee said it's a huge advancement for the sport. "That will be super cool to see, just how they compete and everything," she said. "I like to think I had some part in pushing that, but it's just really cool to see the progression that's happening for women's sports in general. You see it in a bunch of different sports, but baseball seems to be a little bit behind right now. But that's a really good ... step forward for women's baseball, especially in Canada." Lee said her experiences in baseball and other sports have shaped her as a person and the direction life has taken her. Karl Smith, co-chair of the Canada Games Host Society, said moments like Lee's are part of why he got involved in this year's Canada Games. "These are defining moments for young people, and it's amazing," he said. "Karen [Sherriffs] and I were at the field when she pitched her first pitch, and I still get goosebumps thinking about it. It was surreal. It was a strike, too." Though Lee won't be competing this year, she'll be home to watch women's baseball make its debut. She also left a piece of advice for those competing.
