As the $420B Cold Chain Booms, Ergodyne Arms the Front Lines
Ergodyne is answering that call with its rapidly expanding cold storage collection. The worksite safety pioneer just launched its warmest freezer jacket to date, new thermal impact gloves, and merino blend socks—rounding out a head-to-toe system for cold storage and sub-zero work.
'We've built this collection directly with the folks who do it, day in and day out,' said Ergodyne Product Manager, Claudia Weber. Weber credits the quick adaption by major players in the cold chain space to her team's relentless focus on what crews really need. 'I think it's resonating because they know it was not only made for them (the workers), but with them, too.'
Field testing with real cold storage teams, ongoing feedback loops, and on-site observations ensure every feature is grounded in real-world utility. An easy to miss but impactful example of this process are the exterior sizing labels found on outer layers, which allows for instant ID off the rack.
'Seems like not a huge deal,' said Weber. 'But to the workers sifting through the gear every day to find the right size, it is.'
But as cold storage PPE demand heats up, so does confusion around one of the most asked questions in the industry: What do temperature ratings actually mean?
'There's a lot of misinformation—and even more misunderstanding—about what temperature ratings truly represent,' said Ergodyne President, Greg Schrab. 'We're committed to educating our users and helping them make informed decisions based on the best information available, not assumptions.'
To that end, Ergodyne has published a guide aimed at demystifying temperature ratings, laying out what they measure, how they're tested, and why context—like activity level and duration of exposure—matters just as much as the rating itself. Read the full piece here.
'Just like any PPE, cold storage crews need the proper information about their thermal gear to make the right choice for their application,' Schrab continued. 'That's why we've always been as serious about education as we are about innovation.'

Shiba Inu Coin Gains Utility and Community Strength as HashJ Launches SHIB Focused Contracts
London, United Kingdom, Aug. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MGPD Finance Limited, doing business as HashJ, today announced the official launch of its short-term contracts dedicated to Shiba Inu Coin (SHIB), one of the most community-driven digital assets in the market. The new offering allows everyday users to engage with SHIB-linked reward plans designed for shorter durations and predictable outcomes—particularly as SHIB's utility and adoption continue to expand globally. This development comes amid rising attention on the Shiba Inu ecosystem, which has evolved beyond its meme coin origins into a broader decentralized platform with its own Layer 2 blockchain, NFT projects, and expanding payment integrations. By offering structured SHIB-focused contracts, HashJ aims to give users simplified exposure to one of the market's most followed and accessible digital assets. Understanding Shiba Inu Coin Launched in August 2020 by an anonymous developer known as Ryoshi, Shiba Inu Coin is an ERC-20 token built on the Ethereum blockchain. Inspired by Dogecoin, SHIB has since evolved from its meme coin origins into a decentralized ecosystem supported by a large and active community known as the ShibArmy. It has consistently ranked among the top cryptocurrencies by market capitalization and has millions of holders globally. Amid this sustained interest, HashJ's new SHIB-based contracts aim to offer a simplified way for users to participate in the asset's short-term potential without navigating complex trading environments. A Broader Ecosystem Shiba Inu now forms the foundation of a wider ecosystem that includes: LEASH : Originally a rebase token, LEASH has been repurposed as a store of value within the Shiba ecosystem. Its limited supply of 107,646 tokens has attracted significant investor attention. : Originally a rebase token, LEASH has been repurposed as a store of value within the Shiba ecosystem.

ShibaSwap : Launched in 2021, ShibaSwap enables users to stake SHIB, exchange crypto, and earn passive rewards—helping differentiate SHIB from other meme tokens. : Launched in 2021, ShibaSwap enables users to stake SHIB, exchange crypto, and earn passive rewards—helping differentiate SHIB from other meme tokens. Shibarium: In 2023, the team introduced Shibarium, a Layer 2 blockchain designed to reduce gas fees and improve transaction speed. The platform now supports a growing number of DApps, NFTs, and DeFi integrations, enhancing SHIB's overall utility. With these developments, SHIB's use cases continue to expand. Platforms like HashJ are now building on this ecosystem by enabling contract-based participation specifically tied to SHIB's evolving role. Market Overview – July 2025 As of late July 2025, key SHIB metrics include: Price : $0.00001875 : $0.00001875 Market Capitalization : Approximately $7.5 billion : Approximately $7.5 billion 24-Hour Trading Volume : ~$1.14 trillion : ~$1.14 trillion Total Supply: 1 quadrillion (a significant portion has been burned) Market momentum has remained stable through 2025, bolstered by SHIB's presence across major exchanges, wallet integrations, and point-of-sale platforms. The ecosystem's expanding capabilities—particularly those related to Shibarium—have supported long-term investor confidence. HashJ's SHIB-specific offerings reflect this stability and provide an option for users to gain exposure within a shorter time frame through structured contracts. Real-World Usage and Payment Integration Adoption of SHIB as a payment method has seen a notable increase. Through integrations with platforms like BitPay, NOWPayments, and SHIB is now accepted by a growing number of online merchants, retailers, and service providers, including in the travel sector. This expansion underscores SHIB's shift from a speculative asset to a viable transaction medium. This real-world utility has created a broader user base for SHIB—something HashJ seeks to support by making SHIB-related digital contracts accessible via mobile platforms. Development Roadmap and Future Initiatives Shiba Inu has outlined several upcoming developments aimed at enhancing the ecosystem: SHIB: The Metaverse : A virtual environment that allows users to build, trade, and socialize using SHIB tokens. : A virtual environment that allows users to build, trade, and socialize using SHIB tokens.

Participation via HashJ To align with SHIB's growing prominence, HashJ's newly launched SHIB-focused contracts are designed to facilitate participation in SHIB's market movements with limited time commitment. These contracts follow the success of similar offerings based on Bitcoin, XRP, and Dogecoin, and are structured to provide users access to short-term exposure with reward potential based on market trends. New users receive a $118 gift package upon registration (including $100 contract trial credit and $18 cash).

Risetcar's driverless taxis are performing well in the US, with Jakarta operations set to launch soon
By GlobeNewswire Published on August 2, 2025, 16:24 IST BOSTON, MA, Aug. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Risetcar, an autonomous transportation technology company, has launched its self-driving taxi service in several US cities and achieved encouraging results. The company has received positive customer feedback and generated stable profits. This success is due to a precise distribution strategy that utilizes high frequency, small batches, and a controlled number of vehicles. This approach creates an efficient and environmentally friendly transportation system. Risetcar's Jakarta-based operations are scheduled to officially begin operations in October 2025, marking a new chapter in its Southeast Asian expansion. Risetcar is establishing a local operations system to accelerate technical training, system integration, and coordination with local partners and the city government. A spokesperson for Risetcar Indonesia stated, 'We believe Indonesia has great potential for the application of autonomous vehicle technology. With regulatory support and infrastructure development, Jakarta will be one of the first cities in Southeast Asia to experience the benefits of self-driving taxis.'

Barnburner Figma IPO Offers Good Omen as Klarna Reconsiders Debut
None of this was by design. Less than two years ago, in December 2023, software giant Adobe abandoned a $20 billion acquisition of Figma, the maker of cloud-based design tools for building website and app interfaces. The deal unraveled after antitrust regulators in the US and Europe expressed such vociferous concern that Adobe didn't even bother with seeking formal approval. Figma shareholders ought to thank them: The company's shares soared 250% in their New York Stock Exchange debut yesterday, yielding a market capitalization of $47 billion, or more than double Adobe's offer. Other companies flirting with initial public offerings (IPO), like a certain Swedish fintech, may soon follow the encouraging developments. READ ALSO: Big Tech Pulls Off a Very Big Earnings Week and Exxon and Chevron, Rivals Turned Frenemies, Face Profit Pressure-Cooker Wake-Up Call The IPO market, as you probably know, entered a bear-like hibernation after its 2021 peak. Central banks started hiking interest rates to lance white-hot inflation, the knock-on effect being an increased cost of capital (which makes it harder to borrow and finance growth). There was hope this slumbering bear would emerge from its cave this year, soothed by the honeyed business outlook of the new administration. Instead, the first half of 2025 ended up meh. On the one hand, the US saw 109 IPOs, the most in the first half of a year since 2021. But the proceeds (the actual money raised in those offerings) fell to $17.1 billion from $18.8 billion in the first half of 2024, according to an EY analysis. To emphasize just how far things have fallen, the first half of 2021 saw 219 US IPOs that brought in $85.1 billion. Much of the gap can be explained by economic uncertainty due to the Trump administration's saber-rattling about tariffs, which has left the Federal Reserve hesitant to cut rates so far this year. But Figma's debut on Thursday was the latest in a series of encouraging signs: On top of the software developer's sterling debut, recent weeks saw online bank Chime and stablecoin issuer Circle debut (the former up 27% from Chime's $27 June IPO price, the latter up over 490%). AI data center company CoreWeave, which debuted in March, is up almost 200%. So take it as no surprise that buy-now-pay-later fintech Klarna, which filed for an IPO in March but punted amid the tariff uncertainty in the months to follow, is considering listing as early as next month, according to sources who spoke to Bloomberg News. The outlet reported that the recent run of strong debuts is a factor in Klarna's thinking; EY's research bolsters the case for momentum, noting that June accounted for nine of the 16 IPOs that raised more than $50 million in the second quarter. What M&A Has to Say: There are signs that another core part of corporate activity, mergers and acquisitions, is also proving resilient amid escalating tariffs. In the first half of the year, the value of announced M&A deals reached $1.2 trillion, the highest in three years, S&P Global research said this week. 'As markets have largely shrugged off initial tariff uncertainties with multiple pauses, deals have resumed relatively quickly,' wrote the ratings agency. Listings could follow suit, as 'the IPO market appears poised to build on recent momentum,' according to EY's analysis (especially if trade negotiations stay subdued compared to a dramatic April that sent Klarna into a hibernation cave of its own for a few months).
