Nexo, the leading regulated financial institution for digital assets, today announced a two-fold increase on savings interest rates for cryptocurrencies BTC, ETH, XRP, BCH, LTC, EOS, LINK, XLM, TRX, and PAXG, offering yields of up to 8% APY through its Earn on Crypto product.

The substantial hike constitutes a 1% bump in savings interest rates on all supported cryptocurrencies, bringing rates for these assets up to 6% APY. The introduction of Earn in NEXO offers an extra 2% APY for savings in all digital and fiat assets the Nexo platform carries, respectively bringing maximum interest rates for the Earn suite to 8% and 12% for cryptocurrencies, and fiat and stablecoins.
The addition of Earn in NEXO to the company’s lineup – a feature allowing clients to collect interest in Nexo’s native token, regardless of the assets held and their volume – also marks the launch of the company’s Nexonomics campaign.
“With volatility rife around the second COVID wave and exacerbated by the US elections, we want to give our clients the financial stability and opportunities to guarantee their peace of mind – now and for the future. Few financial service providers can offer this. That Nexo can raise interest rates and scale up the NEXO’s tokenomics in times like these confirms how vital it is to maintain a sustainable business model and the importance of a market-neutral strategy,” said Nexo Co-founder and Managing Partner Antoni Trenchev.
The interest rate increase and Earn in NEXO launch are the first of a series of announcements under the lender’s Nexonomics initiative, devised to expand Nexo’s tokenomics model and boost NEXO, the enterprise’s token utility and value, while simultaneously amplifying the potential of the Earn on Crypto & Fiat suite. The full scope of Nexonomics, including a variety of upcoming upgrades and functionalities, will be revealed within December 2020.
Previously, Nexo interest rates ranged between 4% and 5% on cryptocurrencies, and 8% to 10% on fiat and stablecoins. The launch of Nexonomics also comes hot on the heels of several upgrades to Nexo's Earn on Crypto & Fiat suite, including the decision to introduce a PAX Gold earn offering to satisfy the community's interest in tokenized gold.

AI Ambitions at Risk as Only 14% of Enterprises Fully Realize Cloud Value, NTT DATA Study Finds26.3.2026 14:00:00 EET | Press release
NTT DATA, a global leader in AI, digital business and technology services, today released its new report, Cloud-led innovation in the era of AI: The new rules for driving value with cloud, revealing that just 14% of organizations have reached the highest level of cloud maturity despite nearly two decades of cloud adoption. Based on a global survey of more than 2,300 senior decision-makers across 33 countries, the findings highlight a paradox as cloud takes on a new and critical role as the execution layer of the AI operating model. While 99% of organizations say AI is increasing demand for cloud investment, 88% say current cloud investment levels are putting AI, cloud-native and modernization initiatives at risk. Additionally, while cloud is seen as essential for innovation, fewer than half of organizations are satisfied with its impact or with their modernization progress, signaling a disconnect between ambition and reality as expectations rise. Cloud leaders, or organizations that in
