AP News Summary at 4:50 p.m. EST

Rising an incredible 9,404%, Ethereum made history in 2017 and ranks among the most successful cryptocurrencies available. Ethereum distinguished itself with its revolutionary smart contract features, which provide developers with a fresh approach to creating digital assets and distributed apps (dApps). Examining the present scene, a similar narrative is developing with a new cryptocurrency called Rexas Finance (RXS). At just $0.09, many Ethereum enthusiasts are comparing the dramatic 2017 surge of Ethereum with RXS. Here's the reason some think Rexas Finance might follow Ethereum's lead and see a similarly significant climb. A Revolutionary Platform with Game-Changing Technology Ethereum's value exploded in 2017, mostly because of its capacity to generate distributed applications via smart contracts. Ethereum gave developers a stage on which to design distributed finance (DeFi) solutions and apply a wide spectrum of dApps, therefore enabling an entire ecosystem to bloom. For the blockchain field, the capacity to distribute everything—from supply chains to finance—was a radical step. With an emphasis on real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, Rexas Finance is becoming a disruptive player in the blockchain ecosystem fast forward today. Rexas Finance lets consumers tokenize actual assets, including intellectual property, art, and real estate, therefore integrating conventional assets into the digital market. This technology lowers transaction costs, removes entrance obstacles, and makes asset investing more open and understandable. Rexas Finance is laying the groundwork to shift our perspective on asset ownership and investing, much as Ethereum changed our view of distributed finance and digital ownership. Investors view this technical revolution as a similar catalyst capable of causing exponential expansion, similar to Ethereum's surge in 2017. Strong Community Support and Early Investment Potential A strong community of engineers, investors, and early adopters who believed in Ethereum's concept and actively helped its expansion was another important element behind Ethereum's ascent in 2017. The active ecosystem and rising developer activity of Ethereum drove its price growth and resulted in the release on its platform of hundreds of dApps. Rexas Finance is creating a strong community around Ethereum's objective of democratizing real-world asset tokenization, therefore emulating its success. Having already raised over $10 million with over 179 million RXS tokens traded, the project is attracting great interest in its presale rounds. Those purchasing Rexas Finance early stand to reap from the platform's great potential, much as early Ethereum investors were rewarded with large returns as the network gathered pace. Early investors have the chance to enter at a very low cost, with the presale price set at just $0.09 before the price of RXS tokens is predicted to rise after the token's exchange listings in 2025. With almost 249,000 entries in its $1 million giveaway, Rexas Finance's increasing community support is clear-cut and helps to promote awareness and draw additional investors. Like Ethereum in its early years, the project's strategic strategy of stressing community-first investments instead of depending on venture finance is helping establish a devoted fanbase. The Timing is Right for a Major Bull Run Ethereum's price jumped in 2017 as the whole bitcoin market saw an infusion of institutional interest and public awareness. Ethereum's capacity to allow dApps and ICOs made it a logical beneficiary of the bull market as investors were searching for the next great breakthrough. Likewise, Rexas Finance is joining the market at a moment when its technology is well-positioned to grab major attention and investment with the current surge of distributed finance (DeFi), blockchain adoption, and increasing interest in tokenizing real-world assets. Targeting the unrealized market of real-world asset tokenization, estimated to be a multi-trillion-dollar sector, Rexas Finance's rising blockchain technology and growing interest in distributed finance set the scene for Rexas Finance to take market share and maybe follow Ethereum's path. With forecasts of up to 32,100% potential growth as the token moves into popular acceptance, Rexas Finance is ready for a similar leap, much as Ethereum's market capitalization increased from $5 billion to over $100 billion during its 2017 bull run. For early investors, Ethereum's 2017 pricing was also really reasonable and presented great upside potential. Rexas Finance presents the same chance today at a shockingly low price point of $0.09, which makes it appealing for anyone wishing to enter early on a project aiming at replicating Ethereum's success. Conclusion Although nobody can exactly forecast the course of any cryptocurrency, there are clear similarities between the early years of Ethereum and the present direction of Rexas Finance. Rexas Finance is positioned to duplicate Ethereum's 9,404% surge from 2017 with a breakthrough platform, increasing community support, intelligent presale pricing, and the ideal timing for a bull run. Rexas Finance offers a special and maybe profitable chance for investors hoping to profit from the next major development in cryptocurrencies. Is it the next Ethereum? Though only time will tell, the indications are very definitely in that direction.

By Conor Ryan Bill Simmons doesn’t seem to be a huge fan of Jerod Mayo. The longtime Boston sports scribe and “The Ringer” founder has not held back when it comes to calling out Mayo and the repeated flaws and lapses that have hindered a 3-9 Patriots roster. It didn’t take Simmons long to throw another barb at New England’s coaching staff in the early stages of the Patriots’ 34-15 loss to Miami. Less than 30 minutes into Sunday’s matchup against the Dolphins, Simmons took to social media to take umbrage with New England’s lack of aggressiveness. “This spring, Jerod Mayo needs to find an author to help him write a book called Scared Football,” Simmons posted. “Just throw all his scared concepts and strategies in there — passing up 4th and 1s, handing off on 3rd and 16 to set up 45 yard FGs, just rattle all of them off. SCARED FOOTBALL.” This spring, Jerod Mayo needs to find an author to help him write a book called Scared Football. Just throw all his scared concepts and strategies in there — passing up 4th and 1s, handing off on 3rd and 16 to set up 45 yard FGs, just rattle all of them off. SCARED FOOTBALL. A parade of penalties (nine total, seven accepted by Miami) and porous defensive play by New England put them behind the eight-ball in the first half — with the Dolphins entering halftime with a 24-0 lead. But New England also struggled to generate any sort of momentum on offense in the early going. As Simmons noted, New England passed up an opportunity to go for it on 4th-and-1 from its own 39-yard line on its opening drive — opting for the safe call over turning to Rhamondre Stevenson or Antonio Gibson on the ground. In the sequence that led to Joey Slye’s missed field goal in the first quarter, New England was staring at a 3rd-and-16 from Miami’s 30-yard line. It was a tough spot to be in after tackle Demontrey Jacobs was whistled for a hold — sapping plenty of momentum. But instead of putting the ball in Maye’s hands in hopes of making life a bit easier for Slye with a closer kick — New England chose to run the ball, with Rhamondre Stevenson gaining just three years. New England’s conservative approach has backfired in recent weeks, especially with the team’s defense also regressing over that same stretch. After relinquishing over 400 yards of offense to the Rams last week, New England’s D coughed up four touchdowns and 373 total yards to Miami at Hard Rock Stadium. This is just the latest shot across the bow fired from Simmons against New England’s coaching staff. “This is the worst-coached Pats team since Rod Rust. They play all the hits every week — dumb penalties, drops, special teams mistakes, incredibly poor play calling,” Simmons posted on X in October. “Each week is worse than the last. You get what you pay for.” The Patriots went 1-15 during Rust’s lone season coaching New England in 1990. It still stands as the worst record in franchise history. The 2024 Patriots may not be mired in that same level of ineptitude, but Sunday’s lopsided loss was still a stark step backward for New England.

The Indianapolis Colts (5-7) failed to capitalize on a day when the Houston Texans lost to the Tennessee Titans after they fell to the Detroit Lions (10-1) in a 24-6 game. This contest felt closer than the final score indicated. The Indy offense struggled to punch it in the endzone in the first half and settled for two field goals. On the second one, they should have had a touchdown, but Drew Ogletree dropped the ball when he would have walked into the endzone. In addition to not succeeding in the redzone, the offense struggled to stay on the field in third-down situations and had way too many self-inflected wounds with penalties that negated explosive plays. The defense wasn't perfect but they held the Lions to 24 points, Detroit was averaging 33.6 PPG heading into this matchup. They gave the offense opportunities in the second half to make it a closer game but in the end, it wasn't enough for Indianapolis. Here's everything we know from the Colts' Week 12 loss to the Lions: Colts vs. Lions final score, game recap Week 12 Final Score: Lions 24, Colts 6 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Final DET 0 14 7 3 24 IND 3 3 0 0 6 Keys to the Game Drew Ogletree's brutal drop on the would-be touchdown. It would have made it a 10-7 lead for the Colts and they would have at least been down 14-10 at halftime. The Indy defense forced two straight punts after going down 21-6. They got no help from the offense, who had two straight three-and-outs. That was the team's opportunity to pull off a comeback. The difference on third downs for both teams. The Colts were 3-of-12 on third downs while the Lions were nine-of-15 on third downs. A season-high 10 penalties for Indianapolis. 97 yards were negated for the offense by penalties. Some were highly questionable calls by the refs. Stars of the Game Biggest Takeaway The offensive line let the team down today. It certainly doesn't help when you have three rookies in the lineup but that unit lost the battle in the trenches. The rushing lanes for Jonathan Taylor were slim to non-existent. He averaged 3.2 YPC, which put the offense in undesirable third-down situations. Anthony Richardson was under constant pressure and on some of his missed throws, he couldn't step into his release and took a shot doing so. Ideally when Bernhard Raimann returns it will elevate the unit but there needs to be a conversation if Dalton Tucker should continue at right guard. He got beat often by Alim McNeill. Per Next Gen Stats, McNeill generated four quick pressures (under two-and-a-half seconds), tied for the most by any defensive tackle in a game in 2024. Quick Hits Per Next Gen Stats , Anthony Richardson completed only two-of-14 passes for 33 yards when the Lions pressured him, compared to nine-of-14 passes for 139 yards with a clean pocket. Detroit generated pressure on 14 of 30 dropbacks for a 46.7% pressure rate (their highest in a game this season). Per Next Gen Stats, The Colts utilized zone coverage on 39 of 40 dropbacks (97.5%), the highest rate by any team in a game this season. Injuries Bernhard Raimann (knee) was inactive. Ashton Dulin left the game with an ankle injury and was ruled out. What's next? The Colts are on the road in Week 13 to play the New England Patriots (3-9).
