Bruker and 10x Genomics settle patent dispute

Bruker and 10x Genomics have agreed to settle a patent dispute relating to products originally developed by Nanostring, a company Bruker acquired in 2024. Under the settlement, whose financial terms have not been disclosed, the two companies have entered into global cross-license agreements for their patents. Additionally, all ongoing lawsuits and administrative proceedings in the US, Germany, and before the European Unified Patent Court, will be withdrawn. Filed by 10x in 2023, the initial lawsuit asserted that Nanostring's GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiler, a product that profiles the spatial distribution of RNA and protein expression across a tissue sample, infringed on seven patents. In November 2023, the district court of Delaware sided with 10x. Nanostring, a publicly listed company when the lawsuit was filed, went bankrupt in February 2024. Bruker acquired the company a month later for $392.6m, and inherited the lawsuit. On 23 December 2024, Delaware's district court issued its ruling on post-trial motions, in which damages of $31.6m were upheld, yet enhanced damages requested by 10x were declined. The final motion, an injunction request by 10x, was granted by the court, meaning that sales of GeoMx products to new customers in the US would be halted. At the time, Todd Garland, Bruker spatial biology division's president, said the company would 'promptly seek a stay' on any injunction ordered and looked forward to the appeal of its case being heard by the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Commenting on the settlement agreement, Mark Munch, president of the Bruker Nano Group, said the company was happy to have the 'distraction and expense' of the legal cases behind it. 'We're pleased that we have reached a worldwide settlement with 10x, putting an end to all litigation between us,' Munch said. 'This is a great outcome for the scientific community, who can continue their work using Bruker's CosMx and GeoMx spatial biology platforms without concern that litigation could interfere with their advancements in oncology, neurobiology, and other fields of research.'

West Brom Building Society picks Deloitte and 10x for digital makeover

West Brom Building Society has called in Deloitte and core banking provider 10x for a digital overhaul. 0 The UK's eighth largest building society has opted for 10x's cloud-based core system, which will let the mutual tailor products using a range of ready-made modules designed to take away unnecessary complexity, cost and risk. Meanwhile, West Brom is also adopting Converge by Deloitte, a composable accelerator designed to help banks and building societies deliver new digital capabilities at pace. The multi-phase programme will see West Brom's digital savings products enhanced, the migration of existing accounts to Converge and the 10x platform, and the unlocking of greater value across its mortgage portfolio. Jonathan Westhoff, CEO, West Brom Building Society, says: 'We chose to work with Deloitte and 10x because they understand what matters to us as a mutual - our customers. Working on this together is an exciting step forward in building the digital service and technology we want for the future." Founded by former Barclays boss Antony Jenkins, 10x is reportedly weighing a sale.

Bitcoin To Stay Range-Bound, But Options Trading Can Yield A Profit: 10x Research

Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) is expected to remain within a broad trading range of $73,000 to $94,000, making the strategy of selling calls and puts to capture premium particularly effective, according to a recent report by 10x Research analysts. What Happened: The analysis, which examines market dynamics amid ongoing trade war uncertainties, highlights a lack of clear momentum drivers and shifting investor behaviors in the cryptocurrency space. The 10x report notes that Bitcoin ETF inflows have been tepid, totaling just $225 million year-to-date as of April, with the potential to turn negative due to market uncertainty stemming from President Donald Trump's tariff policies. Don't Miss: 'Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. You can invest today for just $0.26/share with a $1000 minimum. Coinbase's latest promo gets you up to $200 in crypto (Seriously!) — Here's everything you need to know to take advantage of this offer. This marks the third consecutive month of outflows for Bitcoin ETFs, a trend initially driven by arbitrage-focused hedge funds rather than genuine demand. Despite this, a new cohort of buyers, wallets holding between 100 and 1,000 BTC, emerged following Elon Musk's endorsement of Trump in August 2024, increasing their holdings by 700,000 BTC to 4.6 million to become the largest wallet group. However, these buyers, likely family offices and asset managers aligned with a pro-crypto stance, have paused accumulation, leaving the market without a dominant marginal buyer. Analysts at 10x emphasize that this lack of a clear buyer, combined with subdued on-chain data, suggests Bitcoin will not break out of its current range soon. "We expect Bitcoin to remain within a broad trading range, making the strategy of selling calls and puts to capture premium particularly effective," the report states, particularly as Bitcoin nears the midpoint of the $73,000 to $94,000 It Matters: The report also highlights weak retail trading volumes and limited fiat inflows, as evidenced by muted stablecoin minting, which further constrains Bitcoin's upside potential and indicates continued underperformance for altcoins. The market's recent rally has been driven by long-term holders focused on diversification rather than speculation, with a notable slowdown in new network addresses compared to previous cycles. This buy-and-hold strategy, distinct from the transactional activity of past bull runs, aligns with monthly cycle indicators like the stochastic oscillator, which signal a late-cycle phase rather than a new bull run. Despite short-term technical improvements, such as funding and basis rates ticking above the 10% hurdle rate, historically a 77% predictor of price increases three to six months later, the broader market structure remains weak. The 10x analysts advocate for a sophisticated approach in this environment, noting, "In an uncertain environment... selling puts (and calls) allows traders to benefit from range-bound conditions." With Bitcoin's support near $73,000 offering a risk-reward setup of 10% downside versus 20% upside, this strategy leverages option-implied volatility for attractive yields, contrasting with the near-zero premiums in basis trades. The report further states that Bitcoin's market now demands a finance-oriented skill set, with traders needing to shift between high-yield income strategies, directional positioning, and capital preservation.

Bitcoin Is In A Mini Bear Market, Says 10x Research

Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) appears to be locked in a mini bear market, with weak technical signals, fading momentum, and a lack of fresh catalysts weighing heavily on price action, according to a Tuesday market note from 10x Research. What Happened: In the report, the firm said Bitcoin is currently trading below its key trend model level of $88,000—an indicator they consider crucial for gauging bull versus bear cycles. "There's little doubt from on-chain data that Bitcoin is in at least a mini-bear market," 10x Research wrote, adding that without a turnaround in momentum, "that remains the base case." Don't Miss: 'Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. You can invest today for just $0.26/share with a $1000 minimum. Hasbro, MGM, and Skechers trust this AI marketing firm — invest pre-IPO from $0.55 per share. While some short-term technical indicators briefly hinted at a relief rally, the bounce stalled at $88,500 and has since reversed. Bitcoin also remains below its 21-week moving average, a widely-used long-term trend signal. One of the firm's most reliable metrics—the short-term holder realized price, now near $93,000—has acted as stiff resistance. The rejection at this level suggests traders are exiting breakeven positions, further reinforcing bearish pressure. On-chain data also supports this cautious outlook. Funding rates remain depressed, signaling reduced risk appetite, while retail investor activity has plummeted—particularly after losses in meme tokens like Trump (CRYPTO: TRUMP). "Confidence took a major hit when retail lost billions," the report noted, with exchange listings near peak prices providing exit liquidity for insiders. ETF outflows have now continued for a second consecutive month. Hedge funds that previously executed arbitrage trades using Bitcoin ETFs are pulling back due to low funding rates. "Without a meaningful rise in funding rates, it's unlikely ETF inflows return to their former strength," 10x broader macro environment offers little comfort either. While market hopes are pinned on a potential Fed rate cut by June, 10x believes it's more likely to be delayed until September due to sticky inflation and resilient labor data. "Bitcoin is looking for real action—not just dovish talk," the note emphasized. Political developments have also failed to ignite momentum. Despite Trump's efforts to boost sentiment—such as announcing a strategic Bitcoin reserve—these moves lack legislative backing. "Holding confiscated Bitcoins doesn't create buying pressure," the report said, suggesting that much of the recent crypto optimism has been narrative-driven rather than supported by fundamentals. Why It Matters: Despite the bearish tone, the firm sees relative strength in Bitcoin compared to altcoins, many of which are underperforming sharply. Their proprietary model combining total crypto market cap and Bitcoin dominance confirms this trend. Notably, Tron (CRYPTO: TRX) and Toncoin (CRYPTO: TON) have stood out for showing resilience in a weak market, potentially due to favorable geopolitical positioning. In the near term, 10x expects Bitcoin to remain range-bound between $73,000 and $94,000. "Volatility is likely," they said, recommending selling options strategies—such as puts or calls—depending on whether price moves toward the lower or upper end of that range. Unless a clear macro shift or bullish catalyst emerges, the outlook remains muted. "The current market structure is fragile," the analysts said, suggesting that their view that Bitcoin is now in a confirmed mini bear market. Check This Out: Lower interest rates mean some investments won't yield what they did in months past, but you don't have to lose those gains. Certain private market real estate investments are giving retail investors the opportunity to capitalize on these high-yield opportunities. Arrived Home's Private Credit Fund's has historically paid an annualized dividend yield of 8.1%*, which provides access to a pool of short-term loans backed by residential real estate. The best part? Unlike other private credit funds, this one has a minimum investment of only $100. Looking for fractional real estate investment opportunities?
