Ripple Prime will provide prime brokerage, clearing and financing services to funds managed by the $35 billion alternative investment manager. Ripple Prime will provide multi-asset prime brokerage, clearing and financing services to funds managed by Brevan Howard, a global investment manager with about $35 billion in assets. Under the expanded agreement, Brevan Howard will gain access to Ripple Prime’s services across traditional and digital asset markets, according to a Tuesday announcement. The deal builds on an existing relationship between the firms. Brevan Howard-affiliated funds participated in a $500 million investment in Ripple in 2025 that valued the company at $40 billion. “As digital and traditional markets become more interconnected, the need for institutional-quality digital asset infrastructure that enables a seamless experience for investors is only growing,” Brevan Howard chief operating officer Alan McGroarty said. The investment manager serves global clients including sovereign wealth funds, corporate and public pension plans, foundations and endowments. The agreement comes as Ripple expands its prime brokerage business.

Bitcoin's price lags behind the record highs of the S&P 500 and Nasdaq.
CoinWorld data: Although the S&P 500 and Nasdaq hit record highs on October 6, 2026, Bitcoin's price lagged, falling back to the $85,000 range. Bitcoin has remained within this range for the past two weeks. Typically, Bitcoin is closely correlated with the price movements of these risk assets, but this time it failed to move in sync. Analysts pointed out that the current strong performance of the U.S. stock market is related to the decline in bond yields, with the 10-year Treasury yield having dropped to about 5.26%. At the same time, Brent crude oil prices also fell below $100 per barrel, easing inflation pressure. Asset management company 21Shares said that if Bitcoin closes above $88,000 this month, it will confirm a trend change; if it falls to $81,000, it may decline further to $71,300.

Venezuela's second-largest refinery has been shut down due to a fire. Eight people familiar with the matter said on Tuesday that Venezuela's Cardon refinery has suspended operations after a fire broke out in one of its processing units. The refinery is the country's second-largest, with a daily processing capacity of 310,000 barrels. At facilities operated by the state-owned oil company Petroleos de Venezuela, fires, power interruptions, and blackouts occur from time to time, which may affect domestic market supply of basic fuels such as gasoline and diesel.
