Blue Hat Expands into Gold Trading with Strategic Partnerships As Gold Prices Rise Amid Economic Optimism

HONG KONG, Aug. 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Blue Hat Interactive Entertainment Technology (NASDAQ:BHAT) is emerging as a key player in gold trading industry. As reported by Reuters, since August 1st, 2024, gold prices have exhibited a mix of volatility and upward trends, influenced by various economic and geopolitical factors. Gold hit a notable high above $2,483 per ounce in July, supported by favorable market sentiment and political risks, indicating strong safe–haven demand​ while short–term corrections might occur due to various economic data releases and market dynamics, the medium to long–term outlook for gold remains bullish, driven by continued safe–haven demand and broader economic uncertainties.

Gold is known for its enduring value and role as a hedge against inflation and financial instability, offering potential returns even in unpredictable market conditions. In today’s volatile global economy, gold remains a stable investment option, prized for its scarcity and universal appeal.

Originally an entertainment company, Blue Hat is now focusing on innovations in the commodity trading arena. The company is planning to integrate artificial intelligence to enhance its offerings, including an intelligent gold supply chain and recycling system, as well as a sophisticated gold derivatives trading platform. Unlike traditional gold companies, Blue Hat is not merely a gold trader earning from the buy–sell spread; rather, it will generate revenue from various aspects of the gold supply chain. Additionally, Blue Hat's gold sources are not limited to newly mined gold but also include gold that recycle from market consumers.

In this environment, Blue Hat Interactive Entertainment Technology is emerging as a key player in gold trading due to their recent business cooperation agreement with Sichuan Jinyinghe Industrial Co., Ltd. in Shenzhen, GTC Group LLC in Dubai and its subsidiary, Golden Alpha Strategy Ltd., has been granted Dealers in Precious Metals and Stones Category A Registration by Hong Kong Customs and Excise Department.

In recent years, with changes in international political and economic situations, central banks of various countries have significantly increased their gold reserves, leading to a rapid rise in gold prices. The Company's management believes that the gold industry has transitioned from a period of rapid growth to a period of high–quality development, presenting strategic development opportunities. However, the gold industry in China and other developing markets still faces numerous challenges, such as low levels of scale and concentration, narrow traditional financing channels, poor operational standards, and a lack of credit data. These issues hinder the healthy development of the gold industry. To effectively address these pain points, Blue Hat and Jinyinghe have decided to cooperate in the gold supply chain business.

According to incomplete statistics from industry insiders, Shuibei is known as the 'World's Gem City, which has nearly 7,000 legal entities in the gold and jewelry industry, employs over 70,000 people, and generates revenue exceeding 1 trillion yuan, accounting for over 50% of the domestic gold and jewelry wholesale market.

The Shenzhen Shuibei market is highly relevant in the gold trade for several reasons:

  1. Central Hub for Gold Trading: Shuibei is known as one of China's largest gold trading centers. It serves as a primary hub for the purchase and sale of gold, attracting traders and buyers from across the country and internationally.
  2. Manufacturing and Processing: The market is a significant center for gold processing and manufacturing. Many companies involved in the creation of gold jewelry and other products operate within this area, making it a vital link in the gold supply chain.
  3. Innovation and Design: Shenzhen Shuibei is known for its innovation in jewelry design. It hosts numerous designers and craftsmen who contribute to the creation of new and unique gold jewelry pieces, which helps to set trends in the industry.
  4. Economic Impact: The market plays a crucial role in the local and national economy, generating substantial revenue and employment. Its activities significantly contribute to China's position as a leading player in the global gold market.
  5. Integration with Technology: The market has increasingly integrated technology in its operations, using digital platforms for trading and showcasing products, which enhances its efficiency and reach.

Besides, Blue Hat’s digital trading solutions are designed to provide flexibility, allowing traders to capitalize on gold price movements without the need for physical storage and insurance. These platforms enable traders to navigate the gold market efficiently, benefiting from high liquidity and continuous market activity. This liquidity allows traders to enter and exit positions swiftly, contributing to the fluidity of the gold market.

Looking ahead, Blue Hat aims to expand its global reach and strengthen its position in the gold market. The company plans to increase its gold holdings, enhance supply chain operations, and refine its digital trading platform. These initiatives are part of Blue Hat's strategy to establish itself as a leading “Smart Gold Trading Platform,” targeting markets in Europe, North America, and beyond.

BASF Catalysts India Private Limited inaugure un nouveau laboratoire RD&A pour les solutions de contrôle d’émissions automobiles

MADRAS, Inde, 04 août 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BASF Catalysts India Private Limited (BCIL), une filiale de BASF Environmental Catalyst and Metal Solutions (ECMS), a inauguré un nouveau laboratoire de recherche, de développement et d’application (RD&A) sur son site de Mahindra World City, près de Madras dans la région de Tamil Nadu, en Inde. Cet investissement stratégique a pour but le développement de catalyseurs pour le contrôle des émissions automobiles adaptés aux besoins spécifiques du marché automobile indien.

« Ce nouveau laboratoire RD&A permettra de formuler des catalyseurs spécifiques qui répondent avec adresse et flexibilité aux besoins uniques du marché indien », a déclaré Saeed Alerasool, vice–président directeur de la division RD&A d’ECMS. « Grâce à cet investissement, nous sommes bien placés pour aider nos clients à répondre aux changements découlant de la diversification des carburants ainsi qu’aux exigences plus strictes en matière d’émissions à l’échappement.

Cela implique que les fabricants locaux d’équipements d’origine mettent sur le marché des véhicules à carburant modulable capables de fonctionner avec n’importe quel mélange de biocarburant et d’essence. En outre, les exigences plus strictes à venir en matière d’émissions posent de nouveaux défis aux constructeurs automobiles indiens.

BASF Catalysts India Private Limited weiht ein neues RD&A-Labor für Lösungen zur Kfz-Abgasreinigung ein

CHENNAI, Indien, Aug. 04, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BASF Catalysts India Private Limited (BCIL), eine Tochtergesellschaft von BASF Environmental Catalyst and Metal Solutions (ECMS), hat ein neues Labor für Forschung, Entwicklung und Anwendung (RD&A) an ihrem Standort in Mahindra World City, Tamil Nadu, Chennai, eröffnet. Im Mittelpunkt der strategischen Investition steht die Entwicklung von Abgaskatalysatoren, die den besonderen Anforderungen des indischen Automobilmarktes gerecht werden.

„Mit diesem neuen RD&A–Labor können wir marktspezifische Lösungen für Katalysatoren entwickeln, die den besonderen Anforderungen des indischen Marktes schnell und flexibel entgegenkommen“, sagte Saeed Alerasool, RD&A–Senior Vice President bei ECMS. „Dank dieser Investition ist ECMS gut positioniert, um unsere Kunden angesichts der sich aus der Diversifizierung der Kraftstoffe ergebenden Veränderungen sowie der strengeren Abgasvorschriften zu unterstützen, und stellt sicher, dass wir auf die Anforderungen künftiger Automobiltechnologien vorbereitet sind.“

Die Eröffnung des neuen Labors stellt einen entscheidenden Schritt dar, der im Einklang mit der Entwicklung der indischen Automobilindustrie und der Ausrichtung der indischen Regierung auf die Diversifizierung der Kraftstoffquellen steht, einschließlich der weiteren Einführung von komprimiertem Erdgas (CNG), erneuerbaren Biokraftstoffen und Wasserstoff. Voraussetzung hierfür ist, dass die lokalen Erstausrüster Flex–Fuel–Fahrzeuge auf den Markt bringen, die mit jedem beliebigen Biokraftstoff–Benzin–Gemisch betrieben werden können. Darüber hinaus stellen die künftigen strengeren Emissionsanforderungen die indischen Automobilhersteller vor neue Herausforderungen.

„Mit diesem neuen Labor an unserem Standort in Chennai ist BCIL in der Lage, unsere Kunden von der Katalysatorentwicklung bis zur Auslieferung des Endprodukts umfassend zu unterstützen“, sagte Sujan Saha, Business Head India und Head of South East Asia im Bereich Fahrzeugkatalysatoren. „Damit können wir auch vor Ort besser auf die spezifischen Bedürfnisse der indischen Kunden eingehen und ihren Anforderungen schneller entgegenkommen.“

BASF Environmental Catalyst and Metal Solutions inaugure un nouvel investissement dans l’hydrogène vert à Budenheim, en Allemagne

  • La nouvelle installation produira des composants pour l’électrolyse et les piles à combustible afin de soutenir la transition énergétique mondiale
  • La production devrait commencer à l’été 2025
  • Investissement conjoint avec d’autres partenaires

BUDENHEIM, Allemagne, 11 juill. 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BASF Environmental Catalyst and Metal Solutions (ECMS) a entamé la construction de sa première installation de production de pointe pour l’hydrogène vert et les composants de piles à combustible à Budenheim, en Allemagne, près de Francfort. Les produits fabriqués sur ce site incluront des membranes revêtues de catalyseur (CCM) à faible teneur en iridium récemment développées, un élément fonctionnel clé pour l’électrolyse de l’eau à membrane échangeuse de protons (PEM). Ces membranes viendront compléter les assemblages membrane–électrode (AME) Celtec® pour les piles à combustible à haute température, qui seront également produites sur le site. Les AME sont des composants essentiels des piles à combustible qui permettent de convertir efficacement l’hydrogène associé à l’oxygène de l’air en électricité.

La division hydrogène de la société ECMS est présente dans le monde entier, et exerce ses activités en Europe, en Amérique du Nord et en Asie. Avec le développement rapide de l’écosystème des énergies renouvelables, la production d’hydrogène vert à partir de l’électrolyse de l’eau deviendra un pilier essentiel pour soutenir la transition énergétique mondiale. La nouvelle installation permettra le lancement commercial des CCM fraîchement développées pour les électrolyseurs PEM d’une capacité de plusieurs gigawatts afin de desservir le marché mondial. Cet investissement permet à ECMS d’étendre ses compétences dans le domaine des métaux précieux, des catalyseurs et du recyclage, et de se positionner comme un fournisseur de solutions intégrées, en boucle complète et de bout en bout, pour toute une série de gammes de produits dans le domaine de l’hydrogène vert.

« Ce nouveau site à Budenheim est un élément clé de notre stratégie mondiale en matière d’hydrogène », a déclaré Tim Ingle, vice–président principal des services et du recyclage des métaux précieux pour ECMS. « En tant que leader mondial dans le domaine des services liés aux métaux précieux et du recyclage des catalyseurs, cet investissement renforce notre contribution à la croissance de l’économie de l’hydrogène grâce à des solutions circulaires qui améliorent les performances et réduisent les coûts des électrolyseurs PEM et des piles à combustible ».

« Nos nouveaux produits ont évolué avec succès du stade de la R&D à celui de projet pilote. La production à Budenheim représente une étape importante pour l’introduction de ces produits sur le marché et nous place en bonne position pour tirer parti de cette formidable opportunité commerciale », a précisé Saeed Alerasool, vice–président principal chargé de la R&D et des applications pour ECMS.

L’ouverture du site de Budenheim est prévue pour l’été 2025. L’installation, dans les locaux d’un site industriel, est située au centre de l’Europe, dans la région métropolitaine Rhin–Main. Le projet est développé avec Trigona Fuel Cell Components GmbH et Grundstücksverwaltung Rheinufer GmbH & Co. KG.
