Roundhouse AI Ltd - Singapore-based technology company specialising in artificial intelligence agent deployment - Says x402 payments settled on Solana are now recorded on the Roundhouse Dashboard alongside payments on Base and Ethereum, both of which are already live. x402 is an open standard that lets AI agents pay for online services directly, "in a similar way to a card payment built into the web," Roundhouse explains. Each payment is settled on a public blockchain. In November, x402 payments recorded on Solana reaches 821,915, worth USD341,261. CEO Matthew Lodge says: "AI agents pay for services wherever those services live, so a record of what they have paid has to follow them across networks. We already cover Base and Ethereum. Adding Solana is the next big step towards a more complete picture of the market. It brings more of the AI agent economy into one place - Roundhouse."

Baker Steel Resources Trust Ltd - London-based investor in natural resources, gold and precious metals - Net asset value per share is 149.2 pence at October 30, down 14% from September 30.

The decrease also reflects the provision for its maiden interim dividend of 2 pence per share.

"The OTCID quotation is expected to broaden Reveille's reach among North American investors, particularly in the United States, by making the company's shares easier to find and trade through participating US brokers. It will also raise awareness of Reveille and its Italian uranium projects as the company evaluates opportunities in other Western-aligned jurisdictions, potentially including North America," Reveille says.
