The post NVIDIA BioNeMo Toolkit Accelerates AI-Driven Drug Discovery appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Terrill Dicki Jul 10, 2026 13:41 NVIDIA’s BioNeMo Agent Toolkit boosts AI-powered co-folding, enabling faster drug discovery and large-scale protein modeling. NVIDIA’s BioNeMo Agent Toolkit, announced at the BIO conference in June 2026, is revolutionizing biomolecular structure prediction and drug discovery workflows with a suite of AI-accelerated tools. The toolkit integrates cutting-edge GPU optimizations to vastly improve the speed and scalability of co-folding processes, which are critical for understanding complex protein structures and predicting drug-target interactions. Co-folding models like OpenFold3 and RosettaFold3 have long been powerful tools in the life sciences, but their computational demands—especially for large molecular assemblies—have limited broader application. NVIDIA’s enhancements address these bottlenecks head-on, offering up to 177x fast

The post Bitcoin price prediction July 2026: Fed decides appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin closed the worst half-year in its recent history near $60,000, down from $93,000 in January and fresh off a 21-month low, and almost none of the damage came from crypto itself. The Federal Reserve and record ETF outflows did it, and the same two forces meet again at the July 28-29 policy meeting that will likely decide whether the bottom is in or another leg waits below. These are the levels, the scenarios, and the honest case on both sides. Summary Bitcoin enters July near $60,000, with the July 28–29 Fed meeting expected to determine whether the recent sell-off extends or a recovery begins. The main risks remain hawkish Fed policy and continued spot Bitcoin ETF outflows, while whale accumulation and an oversold market provide the strongest bullish arguments. Key levels to watch are $58,000 support and $63,800 resistance; a sustained return of ETF inflows could signal that a broader r

The post NOWPayments CEO Kate Lifshits Says Businesses Should Stop Paying for Crypto Payouts appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. [PRESS RELEASE – Amsterdam, Netherlands, July 10th, 2026] NOWPayment believes the crypto industry has accepted unnecessary costs for too long – and that businesses no longer have to. For years, paying blockchain fees has been treated as the price of sending crypto. According to Kate Lifshits, CEO of NOWPayments, it’s time to challenge that assumption. “Why does sending crypto still feel harder than sending an email?” The company’s latest zero-fee payout infrastructure replaces wallet-based transfers with instant email-based payouts, enabling businesses to eliminate network fees, reduce operational complexity, and automate payouts at scale. Crypto Payouts Have Become Unnecessarily Expensive Most businesses still operate payout infrastructure designed around blockchain wallets. That means collecting wallet addresses, validating networks, recovering failed tran

The post The Disney Movie That Should Have Been Made With AI appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Disney is famous for innovation, but the new ‘Moana’ remake has generated criticism for a lack of originality. (Photo by RONDA CHURCHILL/AFP via Getty Images) AFP via Getty Images Few genres of film have been as much of a gamble for Disney as the live-action remakes of its classic cartoons. Last year alone, Lilo & Stitch grossed $1 billion and became almost as beloved as the animated original while Snow White lost an estimated $170 million and cast a dark spell on the studio due to a slew of negative coverage. The latest addition to Disney’s stable is coming for Snow White’s crown as the criticism of it is so harsh that it raises the question of whether it would have been better to make the movie with Artificial Intelligence (AI). The movie in question is Moana, starring newcomer Catherine Laga’aia as the eponymous Polynesian teenager who joins demigod Maui, played by Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Joh
