— US average gas prices have surged 9 cents in two days, reaching 3.88 per gallon, AAA reports. Prices rose 5 cents Thursday and a further 4 cents overnight, following a roughly 6 rise in oil prices since US-Iran hostilities resumed in the Persian Gulf. The outsized jump reflects how gas prices behave: they rise sharply in anticipation of higher wholesale costs, but fall only gradually as station owners use lower prices to recover lost profit margins. Gas had been slowly declining from a wartime peak of 4.56 per gallon hit in mid-May before the latest oil spike reversed that trend.@IntelSlava

The cryptocurrency market is now worth more than $2.23 trillion. Yet, Bitcoin has lost more than half its value since prices hit their peak in October 2025. Despite repeated boom and bust cycles, institutional investors are pouring billions into the digital assets. Traditional banks are embracing them. Politicians are becoming some of their biggest champions and beneficiaries, and governments are racing to write the rules. But cryptocurrency is also becoming a tool for political interference and for sanctioned states seeking to move money beyond the traditional financial system.

Why E20 petrol isn't cheaper than regular fuel despite higher ethanol content, government explains

The central government has once again addressed public concerns about ethanol-blended petrol. One of the prominent questions that is there in the mind of the people is that why petrol is not cheaper even after ethanol is added. Explaining the reason, The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas said that E20 petrol isn't cheaper than pure petrol because ethanol procurement costs remain higher at current crude oil prices. Ethanol is made from sugarcane, maize, or grain. It is renewable, domestically produced and has cleaner burning than pure petrol. The government said that ethanol is deliberately purchased at high, fixed rates, up to 71.86 rupees per litre, to support Indian farmers.
