Politician named Adolf Hitler becomes focal point of local election campaign

November 26, 2025

A local Namibian politician named Adolf Hitler Uunona is widely expected to retain his council seat in the country’s latest round of regional elections, drawing international attention for a name he says carries no ideological meaning.

A longtime member of Namibia’s ruling SWAPO party, he is running again in the Ompundja constituency in the northern Oshana region.

While final tallies have not yet been released, several international outlets report he is projected to win by a wide margin, consistent with previous elections. SWAPO, which has governed Namibia since independence in 1990, has shifted from its socialist liberation roots toward a more centrist, market-oriented governing approach.

His German dictator-linked name — ‘Adolf Hitler’ — was given to him by his father, he told the German outlet Bild, who he claimed did not understand the historical weight the name carried.

‘It was a perfectly normal name for me when I was a kid,’ Uunona told Bild. ‘It wasn’t until I grew older that I realized this man wanted to subjugate the whole world and killed millions of Jews.’

He said his childhood name reflected no political intent and stressed that he has never held extremist beliefs.

‘The fact I have this name does not mean I want to conquer Oshana,’ he said, adding in earlier interviews he generally goes by Adolf Uunona in daily life.

Namibia was a German colony from 1884 to 1915, and Germanic names and place names remain common in some communities. Historians note that this legacy sometimes results in unusual or jarring combinations by modern standards, though they carry no inherent ideological meaning.

According to official information from the Oshana regional government, the Ompundja constituency has 4,659 inhabitants, 19 administrative centers and covers 466 square kilometers.

Appeals court upholds $1 million penalty against Trump over ‘frivolous’ Clinton, Comey lawsuit

November 26, 2025

A federal court ruled Wednesday that President Donald Trump and his former lawyer, Alina Habba, are still on the hook for a $1 million penalty for filing a ‘frivolous’ lawsuit against Hillary Clinton, former FBI director James Comey and others.

The ruling from the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals relates to a now-dismissed lawsuit filed by Trump relating to Russian collusion claims. Trump was first ordered to pay the $1 million in the case in 2023, but he and Habba appealed the ruling.

In addition to Clinton and Comey, their lawsuit also named Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., former FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, and many more.

Trump and Habba, who now serves as U.S. attorney for New Jersey, will be forced to pay approximately $938,000 — split between the dozens of individuals named in the lawsuit.

In the original lawsuit, Trump accused the high-profile figures of conspiring to tank his successful 2016 presidential campaign.

‘Here we are confronted with a lawsuit that should never have been filed, which was completely frivolous, both factually and legally, and which was brought in bad faith for an improper purpose,’ wrote Judge Donald Middlebrooks in his 2023 ruling, which was upheld Wednesday.

‘Mr. Trump is a prolific and sophisticated litigant who is repeatedly using the courts to seek revenge on political adversaries. He is the mastermind of strategic abuse of the judicial process and he cannot be seen as a litigant blindly following the advice of a lawyer,’ he added.

Two defendants in the case also claimed that Trump’s appeal itself was frivolous and sought additional sanctions for it, but the court disagreed.

Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment, but they did not immediately respond.

Wednesday’s ruling comes just days after a separate federal court dismissed false statements charges leveled against Comey. Judge Cameron Currie ruled that the charges were brought by an unqualified U.S. attorney. That U.S. attorney is Lindsay Halligan, who Trump appointed to the position just weeks prior.

Currie, a Clinton appointee based in South Carolina, was brought in from out of state to preside over proceedings about the question of Halligan’s authority because it presented a conflict for the Virginia judges. Comey’s and James’ challenges to Halligan’s appointment were consolidated because of their similarity.

Judge dismisses 2020 election interference case against Trump, granting Georgia’s request

November 26, 2025

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee issued an order dismissing the 2020 election interference case against President Donald Trump and his co-defendants after the state of Georgia had moved to drop the matter.

‘The State having moved for an entry of nolle prosequi for all remaining defendants, the Court grants the motion,’ the order declares. ‘This case is hereby dismissed in its entirety.’

Trump’s lead Georgia defense counsel Steve Sadow described the case as ‘lawfare.’

‘The political persecution of President Trump by disqualified DA Fani Willis is finally over. This case should never have been brought. A fair and impartial prosecutor has put an end to this lawfare,’ Sadow said in the statement.

Peter J. Skandalakis, who took over prosecution after Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was disqualified from handling it, filed a motion to dismiss the case earlier Wednesday in order to ‘serve the interests of justice and promote judicial finality.’

‘This entire case, from the initiation of the District Attorney’s investigation in 2021 to the present, is without precedent,’ noted Skandalakis. ‘In my professional judgment, the citizens of Georgia are not served by pursuing this case in full for another five to ten years.’

The Georgia case yielded the iconic 2023 mugshot of then-candidate Trump.

‘Never before, and hopefully never again, will our country face circumstances such as these. The case is now nearly five years removed from President Trump’s phone call with the Secretary of State, and two years have passed since the Grand Jury returned charges against President Trump and the eighteen other defendants,’ Skandalakis noted. ‘There is no realistic prospect that a sitting President will be compelled to appear in Georgia to stand trial on the allegations in this indictment. Donald J. Trump’s current term as President of the United States of America does not expire until January 20, 2029; by that point, eight years will have elapsed since the phone call at issue.’

The prosecutor explained why the other defendants in the criminal case would not be tried separately.

‘Severing President Trump from the remaining defendants and conducting separate trials, while simultaneously waiting for the conclusion of his term and addressing all of the aforementioned legal issues, would be both illogical and unduly burdensome and costly for the State and for Fulton County,’ Skandalakis wrote. ‘The Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council of Georgia lacks the resources to conduct multiple trials in this matter.’

Prince Silver Provides Update on 2025 Drilling Program at the Prince Project, Nevada

November 26, 2025

Prince Silver Corp. (CSE:PRNC)(OTCQB:PRNCF)(T130: Frankfurt)(‘Prince Silver’ or the ‘Company) is pleased to provide the following progress update on its 2025 reverse-circulation (‘RC’) drilling campaign at the Prince Silver Project (the ‘Prince Project’ or the ‘Project’) in Lincoln County, Nevada, located approximately three kilometres southwest of the historic mining town of Pioche (See Figure 1 for location). The program is advancing well, with eight RC drill holes now completed and the first set of assay results expected in early 2026.

Advancing the Largest Modern Drill Program at Prince

The fully funded 2025 drill program comprises approximately 30 planned RC holes totaling 21,000 feet (6,500 metres). Current drilling is focused on evaluating near-surface (less than 300 metres), carbonate replacement (CRD) silver-gold-manganese and base metal mineralization, and sediment-hosted gold-silver zones along a 3,500-foot (~1,070 metres) structural corridor that ranges in width from 600 to 1,200 feet (~180-360 metres). Mineralization at the Project remains open in all directions within shallow zones presenting open-pit mining potential.

The Pioche mining district is one of Nevada’s most well-known polymetallic camps, and historical records highlight the importance of the past producing Prince Mine within the camp. Previous production from the historic Prince Mine totaled 1.12 million tonnes grading 4.5% zinc, 100 grams per tonne (‘g/t’) silver, 2.8% lead, and 0.5 g/t gold, (Gemmill, 1970), mined from underground high grade sulphide replacement zones within limestone and near-surface oxidized manganese-rich material.

Derek Iwanaka, Chief Executive Officer of Prince Silver Corp., commented:

‘This is the largest modern drill program undertaken at the Prince Project since historical drilling in 2012, and thus far we are very encouraged by the geological indicators we are seeing across the completed holes. With independent laboratory assaying for six holes now underway, we anticipate entering an interesting period of news flow for the Company in the coming year. Results are expected to provide critical insight into the scale and continuity of mineralization across the ‘Exploration Target,’ as defined below and, across the broader mineralized system helping to shape the next phase of drilling, with the objective of incorporating the new data into an initial 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate. We believe Prince is just beginning to demonstrate its potential as a significant silver-gold-manganese (polymetallic) exploration asset in Nevada.’

Historical drilling at the Prince Project identified an exploration target (the ‘Exploration Target’) as outlined in an independent report prepared following JORC guidelines (JORC standards for the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves) by OmniGeoX Exploration Consultants of Perth, Australia, based on historical surface and underground drilling. The report is titled ‘Prince Project Exploration Target’, dated April 24, 2024, authored by Dr. Lachlan Rutherford and Michael Martin (OmniGeoX Exploration Consultants, 2024, Prince Project Exploration Target, Independent Report prepared for Prince Silver Corp.). The Exploration Target was based on 129 historic drill holes drilled through mineralized carbonate replacement beds and host Pioche Shale up to 300 metres in depth. Mineralized polymetallic intersections based on historical block modelling suggest the immediate Exploration Target is between 25-43Mt with grades ranging from 1.44-1.57% Zn, 0.78-0.87% Pb, 0.28-0.40g/t Au, 37-40g/t Ag and 3.62-4.30% Mn.

More comprehensive details on the Exploration Target and historic production are also available in the Company’s press release dated February 27, 2025, available on the Company’s web site and at SEDAR+ (Prince Silver Corp., 2025, Historic Drilling and Production Summary, News Release dated February 27, 2025, SEDAR+ Filing).

Readers are cautioned that the Exploration Target is not an ‘inferred’, ‘indicated’ or ‘measured’ mineral resource compliant with National Instrument 43-101 (‘NI 43-101’). The Exploration Target has been determined based upon 129 historic drill holes totaling 16,606 metres, historic production records including mine level plans and 3D modelling of mineralization and geology. The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the Exploration Target being delineated as a mineral resource.

2025 Drilling Progress

Previous drilling has documented substantial mineralized thicknesses at Prince, including CRD zones up to 370 feet (~112 metres) and sediment-hosted gold-silver mineralization up to 160 feet (~49 metres). The ongoing program is designed to infill drill to reduce drill spacing between historic drill holes testing known mineralized zones continuity and through step out drilling to test potential expansion of the known mineralized system using modern sampling, logging, and analytical procedures.

As of the date of this news release, the following RC holes have been completed to the following depths:

PRC-26 – 955 ft (291 m)
PRC-27 – 925 ft (282 m)
PRC-28 – 920 ft (280 m)
PRC-29 – 920 ft (280 m)
PRC-30 – 890 ft (271 m)
PRC-31 – 955 ft (291 m)
PRC-32 – 945 ft (288 m)
PRC-33 – 950 ft (289 m)

Continuous 5-foot (~1.5-metre) RC chip samples were collected from each hole, and all intervals were logged by a Company geologist under the supervision of a Registered Professional Geologist. Approximately 100 samples per hole were collected from mineralized zones for assaying, representing roughly 500 feet (~152 metres) of assayed drill cuttings. Samples selected for assaying were based on mineralization and alteration.

Outlook:

With drilling and analytical work well underway, Prince Silver is expecting to enter a more news catalyst-rich period in 2026. The pending assay results represent the first major modern dataset generated at the Prince Project and are expected to refine geological models, guide follow-up targeting, and help evaluate extensions of both the CRD and sediment-hosted systems.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC)

The QA/QC program has been designed to meet or exceed CIM and AUSIMM standards. Duplicate samples are extensively used to provide verification both at the primary analytical laboratory and at a second independent laboratory as the program progresses. In addition, a certified field standard is inserted for each drill hole set, and sample blanks are randomly included, with no more than one per hole.

All samples are shipped to the laboratory under secure, standard chain-of-custody procedures. Samples are analyzed using 43-element MS-ICP with aqua regia digestion. Samples exceeding limits for Mn, Zn, or Pb are further tested using wet chemical assays. Most samples are also fire assayed for gold and silver using a one-assay-ton gravimetric method, and an average of four samples per hole will have specific gravity measurements conducted at the laboratory.

The principal analytical laboratory for the program is Skyline Assayers & Laboratories Inc., located in Tucson, Arizona. Skyline is an ISO-accredited facility.

Qualified Person Statement

The technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by John Hiner, SME Registered Member and Independent Geological Consultant to Prince Silver Corp., who is a ‘Qualified Person’ as defined by National Instrument 43-101.

Trump touts ‘progress’ on Ukraine-Russia deal, admits it’s ‘one of the more difficult’ conflicts to solve

November 26, 2025

President Donald Trump says Ukraine and Russia are ‘making progress’ toward a peace agreement, but he conceded that the conflict remains ‘difficult’ to solve.

Trump made the comments while speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on Tuesday night, giving insight into the ongoing Ukraine-Russia talks. He went on to say that U.S. Envoy Steve Witkoff would soon be engaging in talks in Moscow, potentially alongside Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

‘We’re having good talks,’ Trump said. ‘Ukraine is doing well. I think they’re pretty happy about it. I’d like to see it end, and we won’t know for a little while. Well, we’re making progress.’

‘We settled eight wars, and I thought this would be one of the easier ones because of my relationship with President Putin, but this is probably one of the more difficult ones. There’s a lot of hatred,’ he added.

Trump said that Europe is playing a large part in ensuring there are security guarantees for Ukraine to prevent any further aggression from Russia.

The Trump administration had come under scrutiny last week after presenting a 28-point peace plan to U.S. lawmakers. Some lawmakers, including Republicans, initially described it as a ‘wish list’ for Russia.

Trump downplayed that plan while speaking Tuesday night, telling reporters that it was ‘just a map.’

‘All that was was a map. That was not a plan. It was, a concept. And from there they’re taking each one of the 28 points, and then you get down to 22 points. A lot of them were solved and actually very favorably solved. So, so we’ll see how we’ll see what happens,’ he said.

While the talks are moving quickly, Trump said he does not have a deadline for securing a deal.

‘The deadline for me is when it’s over,’ he said. ‘I think everybody’s tired of fighting at this moment. They are losing, losing too many people.’

Nine Mile Metals Announces Completion of DDH WD-25-01 and Confirms Two Zones of VMS Mineralization at the Wedge Project

November 26, 2025

Nine Mile Metals LTD. (CSE: NINE,OTC:VMSXF) (OTC Pink: VMSXF) (FSE: KQ9) (the ‘Company’ or ‘Nine Mile’), is pleased to announce that the 1st drill hole in its Wedge Western Extension Drill Program (DDH-WD-25-01) has been completed to target depth and is in progress on its 2nd hole (DDH-WD-25-02).

WD-25-01 was collared along the southern flank of the Wedge Mine and drilled at an azimuth of 335 degrees with a dip of -50 degrees to target the 2 modeled plates in the western extension (Figure 2).
DDH WD-25-01 was successful, intersecting approximately 22.40 meters (true width) of massive copper bearing sulphides (VMS – Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag-Au), in the 1^st Target Plate.
DDH WD-25-01 also intersected a 2^nd sulphide zone in Target Plate 2, which is currently being geologically logged, measured, photographed and cut for sampling.
A total of 65 sample sections have been identified for base and precious metals analysis (including Antimony) by Actlabs, Fredericton, New Brunswick. The VMS sulphides were visible so our time consuming XRF analysis process was not performed on this large a section to expediate the samples to the labs for certified analysis, also keeping the crew from becoming backlogged in the drill program.
All drill core has been measured, logged, photographed, marked and cut for sampling at the company’s warehouse in Bathurst New Brunswick.
WD-25-02 was collared on the same drill pad and drilled at an azimuth of 310 degrees and a dip of -50 degrees to intersect the first plate approximately 40 meters further west to extend the mineralized zone along strike.
More details will follow when geological logging of the drill core has been completed.

Gary Lohman, VP Exploration, Director stated, ‘We are very pleased with the VMS sulphide mineralization intersects from our first drill hole, WD-25-01. The mineralization was intersected where projected and throughout its width, it is massive and looks nondescript as seen in the images above, however, upon close examination, chalcopyrite (Cu) is seen as very fine disseminations within a matrix of pyrite. With the success of the first hole, the technical team, with the assistance of Apex Geoscience, decided to turn the drill west (WD-25-02) to intersect the VMS sulphide zone along strike and extend the mineralized footprint west. We look forward to building on this success and reporting the ongoing progress of this important Drill program at The Wedge Project.’

Patrick J. Cruickshank, MBA, CEO & Director, stated, ‘The team is working diligently and efficiently to process the core as quickly as possible including carrying out core orientation and markup, geological logging, photography, cutting and sampling, prior to submitting for assay. Our Team is doing a stellar job. We are happy to deliver this update and will provide an update on hole WD-25-02 as soon as possible. Apex Geoscience has been instrumental in their advisory and drill program design along with our entire our Technical Team. We are well on our way with this exciting Drill Program at the Western Extension of the Wedge. A more detailed update shortly once we interpret these 2 holes and make any adjustments or new targets to the program.’

Frankfurt: 6YL

Walker Lane Resources Ltd. (TSXV: WLR,OTC:CMCXF) (Frankfurt: 6YL) ‘Walker Lane’) is pleased to announce that Precision Geosurveys Inc. has been contracted to complete an airborne total magnetic field and radiometric survey on its Silver Mountain Project located in the prolific Walker Lane Gold Trend.

Precision Geosurveys Inc. of Reno, NV and Langley, BC will commence the airborne survey in the next few days following completion of ongoing surveys by Precision in the Tonopah area of west central Nevada. A total of 47 line-kilometers will be flown along lines spaced 100 meters apart, 30 meters above ground level. The results are anticipated to be useful in mapping the complex altered volcanic stratigraphy present on the property and to contribute information that will further pinpoint proposed drill targets on the property.

The Company has negotiated the right to pay 100% of the costs of this survey to Precision Geosurveys through an issuance of common shares of the Company. The terms of the agreement between the Company and Precision Geosurveys in this regard state that the deemed price of the securities to be issued will be (i) determined after the date survey services are provided; and (ii) that the maximum discount allowable and all conditions pertaining to the issue of common shares will be in accordance with TSX Policy 4.1. For reasons of maintaining competitive pricing by Precision Geosurveys to the Company, the estimated calculation of shares to be issued will not be presented. The Company has applied for TSX approval of this Transaction and it is not deemed material to the Company.

Mr. Kevin Brewer, P.Geo President and CEO of Walker Lane Resources Ltd. noted that ‘This survey is a part of our efforts to commence exploration operations as we prepare for future drilling on our assets in the prolific Walker Lane Area. Silver. As previously announced, an airborne survey is also being conducted at the same time on our Tule Canyon project and is expected to be completed in the very near term. We are very excited to be commencing exploration at the Tule Canyon project. Both of these properties have significant silver potential which has elevated significance with the recent listing of silver as a critical mineral.’

About the Silver Mountain Property

The Silver Mountain Property is centred at 37° 13’N 117° 28′ W, approximately 57 km southwest of Goldfield in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The property is road accessible and comprises of 8 claims on BLM land with no surface impairments.

While there are numerous exploration workings dating back to at least 1917 in the Silver Mountain Property area, there is little documentation of past exploration or mineralization in the public record.

The Silver Mountain Property is underlain by Sylvania Pluton granodiorite cut by inferred mesothermal or deep epithermal oxidized quartz veins. At the Gulch Showing, the veins form a single, steeply-dipping, north-striking system traced for about 400 m in workings. Grab samples from this zone have returned up to 3,270 g/t Ag. A chip of 0.6 m @ 1,415 g/t Ag and 0.48% Cu was sampled across the face of a drift in the Silver Bowl Mine, the most significant workings along the principal Gulch structure. On surface, chip sampling returned up to 0.4 m @ 1,245 g/t Ag from a vein exposed in a pit near the southern end of the principal structure. At the Old Cabin Showing, numerous, moderately west-dipping, planar extensional veins are exposed in workings along a small ridge. They cut the intrusive rocks over a vertical distance of more than 30 m, forming a stacked vein array. Grab samples from this zone have returned up to 394 g/t Ag.

A video presentation describing results to date at Silver Mountain is available on Silver Range’s website at www.silverrangeresources.com and further information is also available on the Company website at www.walkerlaneresources.com.

Forte Minerals Commences First-Ever Drilling at the Pucarini High-Sulfidation Gold Project, Puno, Peru

November 26, 2025

Five-hole 1,750m drill program underway
Testing for potential large-scale high-sulphidation epithermal gold system
Assay results expected early Q1 2026

Forte Minerals Corp. (‘Forte’ or the ‘Company’) ( CSE: CUAU,OTC:FOMNF ) ( OTCQB: FOMNF ) ( Frankfurt: 2OA ) is pleased to announce that diamond drilling has commenced at its 100%-owned Pucarini High-Sulfidation Gold Project (‘ Pucarini ‘ or the ‘ Project ‘) in southern Peru. This marks the first-ever drill program on the Project and represents a significant milestone following several years of geological work, community engagement, and environmental permitting.

Pucarini is located within the Southern Peru Miocene Mineral Belt, which hosts numerous epithermal gold (‘ Au ‘) and porphyry copper – molybdenum (‘ Cu-Mo ‘) deposits. The Project exhibits a large-scale hydrothermal alteration footprint with high-sulphidation epithermal Au type mineralization, similar to those of neighbouring and regional deposits in the Puno region of Southern Peru.

Figure 2 – Pucarini Au Geochemistry – IP Chargeability-Resistivity 3D Model – Ground Magnetic Susceptibility 3D Model and Proposed Drilling

Over the past several years, Forte has carried out detailed mapping, geochemistry, multispectral mineralogical analysis, and ground geophysics, while also building strong, long-term relationships with local communities. The Company secured its DIA drilling permit in August 2023 (refer to news release – September 29, 2023 ) and entered into a renewed one-year Community Agreement on March 1, 2025, ensuring local support for the 2025–2026 exploration drilling program.

Inaugural Drill Program

The Phase I program consists of:

5 diamond drill holes
1,750 metres total (~350 m per hole)
Testing a potential large-scale high-sulfidation epithermal gold system.

The drill targets were prioritized based on coincident gold geochemistry, high-sulfidation alteration zones, and high resistivity geophysical anomalies, creating a potential cohesive exploration model.

Figure 6 – Pucarini Diamond Drill Hole #3 in Cross section – IP High Chargeability/ Low Resistivity Anomaly and Deeper High Magnetic Susceptibility Anomaly

The 1,000-hectare 100% owned Pucarini Project contains multiple advanced argillic alteration zones within a 3.6 km by 1.8 km hydrothermal alteration footprint. These zones are characterized by massive and granular silica ledges, vuggy silica, and high-sulfidation alteration textures, all consistent with high-sulfidation epithermal Au alteration and mineralization on surface.

Forte has identified a cohesive Au geochemical anomaly in rocks and soils that spans 1,200 m by 600m, supported by a large 1,500 m by 600 m high chargeability anomaly. This is also coincident with a deep-rooted high magnetic susceptibility anomaly that potentially outlines a Au-Cu-Mo porphyry system at depth. Lower levels of anomalous Cu and Mo geochemistry in rocks and soils dominate the main target zone lending more conviction to a potential deeper porphyry target. Together, these datasets outline a robust, untested high-sulphidation epithermal Au target overprinting a potential porphyry Au-Cu-Mo target at greater depth.

With drilling now underway, the Company is positioned to unlock the first subsurface information ever collected from this extensive system. Core processing and sampling from the first drill hole is now underway, and the Company anticipates delivering first assay results to the market in early Q1 2026.

Forte’s President & CEO Statement, Patrick Elliott commented:

‘The start of drilling at Pucarini is a major milestone for Forte. After years of geological groundwork, permitting progress, and meaningful collaboration with local communities, we are finally able to test what we believe is one of the most compelling untested high-sulfidation gold exploration targets in southern Peru.

The scale of the alteration system, the strength of the geophysics, and the consistency of the gold anomaly make this a highly attractive first-pass discovery opportunity. With drilling underway, we look forward to sharing initial results with the market in December.’

Strengthened Balance Sheet and Strategic Alignment

Over the past four months, Forte has welcomed two new strategic investors, each investing C$5.7 million, bolstering the Company’s treasury and aligning long-term development plans across all projects. These investors bring significant in-country operational experience and will play an important role in unlocking value not only at Pucarini, but also at the Company’s second Au asset, the Alto Ruri Au Project.

Alto Ruri Gold Project (15 km from Barrick’s Pierina Mine)

While drilling progresses at Pucarini, Forte remains committed to advancing its second Au project, Alto Ruri , located approximately 15 km from the past-producing Pierina Mine, one of Barrick’s former cornerstone operations. Alto Ruri hosts shallow historical drilling, high-resistivity geophysical anomalies, and district-scale epithermal signatures, underscoring its potential for a near-surface Au discovery (refer to the news release dated March 4 ^th , 2024 ).

With the support of two new strategic investors with deep operational experience in Peru, advancing environmental permitting at Alto Ruri is a key priority as the Company prepares the project for future drilling.

Crypto Market Update: Strategy Defends Balance Sheet Strength Amid BTC Drawdown

November 26, 2025

Here’s a quick recap of the crypto landscape for Wednesday (November 26) as of 9:00 a.m. UTC.

Get the latest insights on Bitcoin, Ether and altcoins, along with a round-up of key cryptocurrency market news.

Bitcoin and Ether price update

Bitcoin (BTC) was priced at US$87,388, a 0.6 percent decrease in 24 hours. Its lowest valuation of the day was US$86,215.64, while its highest was US$88,097.57.

Bitcoin price performance, November 26, 2025.

Chart via TradingView

Bitcoin’s latest rejection from the heavily defended US$90,000–US$92,000 resistance zone has forced traders to reassess the market’s near-term foundation. The sell-off that followed sent BTC sliding into the US$80,000 region, a dip that was considered by market watchers to be the first major stress test since Bitcoin’s explosive run-up in late Q3.

Despite some optimism of a possible temporary reset, investors warn that a decisive break below US$80,000 could expose Bitcoin to a slide toward the US$69,000–US$62,000 support range. As analyst Ted Pillows wrote on X, “$BTC is facing a lot of resistance around the $88,000–$90,000 zone. If BTC doesn’t break above this level soon, expect a sweep of the lows again.”

A major driver of this uncertainty is the sudden reversal in institutional behavior. After months of steady accumulation, Bitcoin ETFs reported roughly US$3.5 billion in outflows, removing a major pillar of demand and accelerating downward pressure on spot prices.

Meanwhile, Ether (ETH) was priced at US$2,912.48, a 0.7 percent increase in the last 24 hours. Its lowest valuation of the day was US$2,862.84, while its highest was US$2,973.89.

Altcoin price update

XRP (XRP) was priced at US$2.19, down by 1.4 percent over 24 hours.

Solana (SOL) was trading at US$137.90, up by 0.7 percent over 24 hours.

Today’s crypto news to know

Strategy insists its balance sheet holds firm even at US$25,000 Bitcoin

Strategy reiterated that its balance sheet can withstand a deep Bitcoin drawdown, telling investors in a recent X post that its collateral coverage would remain at 2.0x even if BTC dropped to US$25,000.

The company disclosed updated calculations showing that its convertible debt remains overcollateralized despite the stock’s 49 percent slide and the risk of an MSCI index removal next year.

With 649,870 BTC—worth roughly US$57 billion—the firm remains the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin globally. Strategy maintains that this overcollateralization gives it room to manage volatility and refinance maturities that run through 2032.

Despite the reassurances, the company continues to face pressure from index committees and investors reevaluating the long-term role of a Bitcoin-heavy corporate treasury.

Recently, S&P Dow Jones Indices left Strategy off its latest round of S&P 500 additions, choosing to elevate SanDisk instead despite Strategy’s market capitalization placing it within the top tier of US public companies.

Strategy’s bid for inclusion has been complicated by its reliance on Bitcoin holdings, which some index members argue behaves more like an investment vehicle than a traditional operating company.

For its part, Strategy insists that its software business, alongside its Bitcoin strategy, qualifies it as an operating firm under the index rules. Chairman Michael Saylor pushed back against the characterization, stressing on X that Strategy is “not a fund, not a trust, and not a holding company.”

Japan approves major regulatory shift for crypto under FIEA

Japan’s Financial Services Agency has finalized plans to move digital assets under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, marking the country’s most sweeping crypto regulatory overhaul in years.

The shift reclassifies crypto assets as investment products and subjects issuers and exchanges to disclosure and conduct standards similar to those governing securities.

The changes affect over 13 million Japanese crypto accounts that collectively hold more than ¥5 trillion, prompting concerns from local exchanges about higher compliance burdens.

The FSA’s working group outlined new obligations, including clearer disclosure of token supply, governance structures, project risk assessments, and issuer responsibilities.

In addition, exchanges will also be required to maintain reserve funds to cover potential hacking incidents. Regulators plan to crack down on unregistered offshore platforms that continue marketing to Japanese users without approval.

The legislative package is expected to be submitted during the 2026 Diet session.

Spain moves to hike taxes on Bitcoin, Ethereum

A Spanish parliamentary bloc has introduced new tax amendments that would significantly increase the burden on Bitcoin, Ether, and other non-financial-instrument crypto assets.

The proposal would shift gains from crypto into the general personal income tax base, which carries rates of up to 47 percent—far above the current 30 percent maximum applied to savings-based income.

Lawmakers also want corporate crypto gains taxed at 30 percent and are pushing for a nationwide “traffic light” risk label that would appear on trading platforms.

Tax specialists argue the reforms would be difficult to implement, with some calling the package legally unworkable and likely to generate administrative chaos. Investors are likewise already expressing concern after a recent case in which a trader was taxed €9 million on a transaction that produced no profit, highlighting flaws in current enforcement.

If enacted, analysts further warn that the new measures could accelerate capital flight from Spain’s retail crypto market.
