Ripple announced a $750 million share buyback on March 14, buying equity from early investors and employees. The move values Ripple the company at $11.3 billion. The same week, on-chain data showed 60% of XRP holders are sitting at a loss, with 3.8 billion tokens flowing into Binance since January in what looks like a slow distribution from whales. XRP trades at $1.41, barely above where it sat six weeks ago, while 450 million tokens hit Binance in the last ten days alone.

Ripple is buying back its own shares. It is not buying back XRP. For holders watching the buyback benefit the company but not the token, Taurox offers something built specifically for the people who hold: a decentralized hedge fund where AI agents trade your capital and stakers keep 80% of the profits.

How the Taurox Pool Works for Holders

Once the pool activates at listing, you deposit crypto into a shared trading pool. AI agents will trade that capital across DEXs and centralized exchanges around the clock. Each agent is built by independent developers and quants who compete for allocation in an open marketplace. Some will capture price gaps between venues. Others will trade momentum from whale wallet tracking or social sentiment data. The pool is designed to run thousands of agents at once, each with its own edge, so your capital is never concentrated in one bet.

When agents profit, your pool share grows automatically through txTokens that rise in value with every winning period. No claiming. No compounding manually. The flow is simple: you deposit, agents trade, you collect. Stakers keep 80% at the standard tier. Agent creators earn 15%. The protocol takes just 5%, only on realized gains and assessed on a high-water mark. That 5% gets converted to TAUX and 30% is burned permanently. Every profitable cycle shrinks the token supply.

Ripple’s buyback benefits shareholders. Taurox’s burn benefits every token holder. The difference matters. When the protocol earns fees, 30% of those fees are removed from circulation forever. There is no board deciding who benefits. The burn is automatic and permanent. More pool activity means more fees, more fees means more tokens burned, and more tokens burned means a smaller supply backing the same or growing demand.

How Agents Earn Their Way In

Every agent trades with the creator’s own capital first. Live order books, real slippage, and the creator takes any losses. To graduate into the pool, an agent needs a Sharpe above 1.5, drawdowns under 15%, and position sizes capped at 5% of allocation.

After promotion, controls stay tight. Each agent runs under a 2% daily stop-loss. If the entire pool drops 5% in one day, all trading halts. The KYA system classifies agents by strategy type to keep the pool diversified. Agents that stray from their declared approach get shut down. Your capital sits in smart contract vaults at all times. Agents can trade but cannot pull funds out. Only you can withdraw, backed by a 15% stablecoin reserve.

The TAUX Presale: Why Early Entry Matters

TAUX unlocks pool access. Hold 1% of the supply, stake up to 1% of the pool. The presale runs 19 phases from $0.01 to $0.07, listing at $0.08. Phase 1 locks in an 8x markup at listing. Supply is fixed at 2 billion, non-mintable.

Vesting follows a 1-month cliff with linear unlocks through month 6, and staking activates at the end of the presale, so your tokens start working from day one. At a $1 billion pool with 30% gross returns, the implied TAUX price reaches $1.85. That is 185x from Phase 1.

What XRP Holders Should Consider

Ripple spent $750 million buying back shares from its own investors. That money went to the company, not to the token. Meanwhile 60% of XRP holders are underwater and whales are moving billions to exchanges. Taurox is designed so that when the protocol succeeds, the token holders benefit directly through yield and burns.

When the pool goes live, AI agents will compete to generate returns on your capital. The presale is live at $0.01 and Phase 1 allocations are limited.

Disney Pockets $2.2 Billion For Filming Outside America

The post Disney Pockets $2.2 Billion For Filming Outside America appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Disney has made $2.2 billion from filming productions like ‘Avengers: Endgame’ in the U.K. ©Marvel Studios 2018 Disney has been handed $2.2 billion by the government of the United Kingdom over the past 15 years in return for filming movies and streaming shows in the country according to analysis of more than 400 company filings Disney is believed to be the biggest single beneficiary of the Audio-Visual Expenditure Credit (AVEC) in the U.K. which gives studios a cash reimbursement of up to 25.5% of the money they spend there. The generous fiscal incentives have attracted all of the major Hollywood studios to the U.K. and the country has reeled in the returns from it. Data from the British Film Institute (BFI) shows that foreign studios contributed around 87% of the $2.2 billion (£1.6 billion) spent on making films in the U.K. last year. It is a 7.6% increase on the sum spent in 2019 and is in stark contrast to the picture in the United States. According to permit issuing office FilmLA, the number of on-location shooting days in Los Angeles fell 35.7% from 2019 to 2024 making it the second-least productive year since 1995 aside from 2020 when it was the height of the pandemic. The outlook hasn’t improved since then with FilmLA’s latest data showing that between April and June this year there was a 6.2% drop in shooting days on the same period a year ago. It followed a 22.4% decline in the first quarter with FilmLA noting that “each drop reflected the impact of global production cutbacks and California’s ongoing loss of work to rival territories.” The one-two punch of the pandemic followed by the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strikes put Hollywood on the ropes just as the U.K. began drafting a plan to improve its fiscal incentives…
