Venture Global and Atlantic-SEE Announce Expansion of Long-Term LNG Sales and Purchase Agreement with Greece

 Deal doubles quantity of US LNG to be supplied by Venture Global, expanding existing partnership to bolster Central and Eastern European energy security

Builds on Venture Global’s regasification capacity investment in the Alexandroupolis LNG import terminal to supply U.S. LNG to the region

 


(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Venture Global, Inc. (NYSE: VG) and ATLANTIC – SEE LNG TRADE S.A. of Greece announced an expansion of their existing Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA) for the purchase of U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Venture Global for twenty years starting in 2030. Under the deal, Atlantic-SEE is doubling their existing contract with Venture Global from a minimum of 0.5 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) to 1.0 million tonnes per annum (MTPA).


Atlantic-SEE LNG is a newly formed joint venture announced in November at the 6th Partnership for Transatlantic Energy Cooperation (PTEC) conference hosted in Athens, Greece between Greek companies AKTOR Group and DEPA Commercial. The announcement of this expanded supply agreement follows Venture Global’s previously announced investment in regasification capacity at the Alexandroupolis LNG import terminal in Greece, which currently accounts for approximately 25% of the terminal’s total capacity. The Alexandroupolis LNG FSRU receiving terminal and South-North ‘Vertical Corridor’ will be essential to enhancing Central and Eastern European energy security by providing a new route to bring affordable and reliable U.S. natural gas into the region.


“Venture Global is honored to announce this expanded partnership which reinforces our shared commitment to energy security, supply diversification, and economic growth, while advancing the strategic energy relationship between the United States and Europe,” said Venture Global CEO Mike Sabel. “The Vertical Corridor has emerged as a vital energy hub for the region, and our continued investment in infrastructure such as the Alexandroupolis terminal is helping create new pathways for secure, reliable energy supply across Central and Eastern Europe. We are grateful for the leadership of President Trump, Secretary Burgum, Secretary Wright, Ambassador Guilfoyle, and officials across both sides of the Atlantic whose support continues to strengthen transatlantic energy cooperation and expand access to U.S. LNG around the world.”


“The expansion of our commercial agreement with Venture Global reflects the ambition and solid ground of our long-term strategic plan on LNG and the potential of the vertical corridor, which can provide alternatives and energy security across Central and Eastern Europe. It also highlights the growing importance of the transatlantic energy cooperation between Greece and the United States that will benefit the entire region,” said Alexandros Exarchou, CEO of Atlantic SEE LNG Trade. “The geopolitical development has offered us the historic opportunity to operate as an energy hub between continents, and we aspire to build on this momentum and offer our customers long-term, sustainable, and predictable energy safety.”


“Today’s agreement marks the successful transition from vision to action," said Konstantinos Xifaras, Chairman of Atlantic SEE LNG Trade. “By doubling the volumes secured under this agreement, we are creating a stronger foundation for reliable and predictable LNG supplies across the region, while translating strategic planning into concrete commercial outcomes. This agreement reflects the value of long-term partnerships and reinforces the growing role of transatlantic energy cooperation in supporting regional energy security and resilience.”

Visa Announces New AI, Stablecoin and Token Innovations to Power Intelligent, Programmable Commerce at Visa Payments Forum

 New Agent Scoring, Agentic Registry and Large Transaction Model capabilities, stablecoin settlement and token enhancements support the next gen of digital commerce


 


(BUSINESS WIRE)--At Visa Payments Forum 2026, Visa (NYSE: V) today announced new AI, stablecoin and token capabilities designed to help clients unlock the next generation of commerce. These innovations reflect a simple objective: ensuring trust, security and control evolve alongside increasingly fast, automated and intelligent commerce experiences.


This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260610464331/en/


In a keynote presentation, Jack Forestell, Chief Product & Strategy Officer at Visa, outlined how two foundational shifts—artificial intelligence and stablecoins—are transforming both the front end and back end of money movement, and how Visa is enabling clients to participate.


“AI is transforming the front end of commerce. Stablecoins are reshaping the back end,” said Forestell. “Visa’s role is to enable it to work securely, reliably and at global scale, for every participant in the ecosystem.”


Powering the Front End of Commerce—and How It Gets Built—with AI


Visa detailed how AI is reshaping how transactions are initiated, authorized and trusted—while also accelerating how new commerce experiences are designed, developed and delivered, particularly as AI agents increasingly act on behalf of consumers and businesses.


Visa Intelligent Commerce, the company’s platform for agentic commerce, provides the trust, controls and connectivity needed for AI agents to securely discover, initiate and complete transactions.


To support this shift, Visa is working across the ecosystem—partnering with leading AI platforms, enabling new merchant capabilities and building infrastructure to ensure agent-initiated transactions are transparent and trusted, including:


Agent Score: Created with New Generation, it allows merchants to evaluate their websites for agentic commerce readiness—specifically, whether AI agents can navigate, understand and complete tasks on a merchant’s website.

Agentic Directory: Merchants need to know which agents can be trusted to transact on their sites, and agents need confidence that they are interacting with legitimate merchants. The directory includes agents and merchants that Visa has verified as legitimate participants in agentic commerce.

OpenAI Partnership: a strategic collaboration with OpenAI to enable secure Visa payments within agentic commerce, enabling seamless and trusted payments across OpenAI. Through the partnership, Visa will provide its global network, credentialing capabilities and security infrastructure to support agentic commerce experiences, helping consumers and businesses interact and transact with confidence.

Large Transaction Model: An AI model trained on billions of transactions to improve fraud detection while increasing authorization performance and reducing false declines—a trade-off the industry has struggled with for years.

Visa also demonstrated early development concepts from its Crypto Labs and developer teams. This included a Command Line Interface proof of concept that lets AI agents pay for digital services directly in the terminal using Visa’s tokenized credentials.


“We believe a growing share of creation and transactions will be led by developers using AI tools,” said Forestell. “We are working with the industry to make cards the best way to pay in the Command Line.”


Enhancing Tokens for AI-Driven Commerce


Visa announced significant enhancements to its tokens, focused on bringing more data, context and assurance into the credentials used in digital commerce.


Today, tokens already carry a highly secure data set purpose-built for digital payments. As commerce extends to new channels and agents, Visa is enriching the data to provide more details on the transaction type, where the token is being used and who is making the payment.


A second key advancement is a token assurance signal. Token use is evaluated throughout its lifecycle—based on provisioning and behavioral history—to generate a signal of trust behind each transaction.


These enhancements provide issuers with stronger signals for authorization decisions, helping reduce false declines for merchants while minimizing friction for consumers.


Designed for AI-driven commerce, these developments embed identity, permissions and behavioral signals more deeply into credentials—allowing trust to travel with the transaction across devices, channels and use cases, including those initiated autonomously by AI agents.


Modernizing the Back End of Money Movement with Stablecoins


Visa also shared progress in modernizing settlement and value transfer through stablecoins and blockchain-based infrastructure.


Tokenized Deposits: Visa announced it will build the technology layer that can allow banks to turn traditional deposits into programmable, always-on digital money. This gives banks a way to match the speed and flexibility of stablecoins while keeping funds on balance sheet.

Stablecoin Settlement: Visa is expanding stablecoin settlement pilots across multiple regions, blockchains and currencies. Building on its first stablecoin settlement pilots in early 2025, Visa has moved billions of dollars in stablecoins across VisaNet, with an annualized run rate of approximately $7 billion as of March 2026. With issuing banks already settling seven days a week onchain with Visa, Visa is also working to extend seven-day settlement to include acquirers, increasing flexibility and frequency across the entire ecosystem.

Stablecoin-Linked Cards: Visa continues to expand stablecoin-linked card programs, enabling consumers and businesses to spend stablecoin balances anywhere Visa is accepted. With more than 160 programs live or in development globally, adoption is expected to accelerate.

Helping Clients Modernize Without Disruption


Across these innovations, Visa emphasized a consistent theme from clients: modernization is essential, but full system replacement is not practical. Visa is addressing this with modular, cloud-native capabilities that integrate with existing infrastructure and enable banks, fintechs, acquirers and merchants to modernize at their own pace.


For issuers, the Pismo core banking platform enables flexible, real-time banking and processing capabilities with a phased path away from traditional systems.

For acquirers and merchants, Unified Checkout provides a consistent way to accept both card and non-card payments through a single orchestration layer—supporting evolving commerce models, including AI-driven transactions. Visa Intelligent Authorization uses real-time network signals and advanced models to help acquirers and their merchants optimize authorization approvals and capture incremental spend that might otherwise be declined.

Leading the Evolution of Commerce


Taken together, the announcements at Visa Payments Forum reflect a clear vision: Visa is becoming the platform that connects AI, programmable money, modern infrastructure and global trust so clients can win now and be ready for what’s next.


“History is filled with innovations that never reached scale,” said Forestell. “What determines success is trust, security and global reach. That’s what Visa brings to every new era of commerce – and what we’re building for the future.”


About Visa


Visa (NYSE: V) is a world leader in digital payments, facilitating transactions between consumers, merchants, financial institutions and government entities across more than 200 countries and territories. Our mission is to connect the world through the most innovative, convenient, reliable and secure payments network, enabling individuals, businesses and economies to thrive.

Bitget CFD Rolls Out Zero-Fee Mode Amid Daily Volume Growth Toward $10B

 

VICTORIA, Seychelles - Thursday, 11. June 2026

 

Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), today announced the launch of Zero-Fee Mode for Bitget CFD, introducing a commission-free account option designed to make CFD trading more flexible, transparent, and accessible.

The launch comes as Bitget CFD continues to scale rapidly, with daily trading volume reaching $8 billion in May and moving closer to the $10 billion milestone. This growth reflects rising demand for multi-asset trading access, as users increasingly seek efficient ways to trade global markets within a unified platform.

Bitget CFD now offers a dual-account structure that gives users greater control over how they trade. The existing ECN Mode remains available for professional, short-term, and high-frequency traders who prefer tighter spreads with volume-based commissions, while the new Zero-Fee Mode is designed for users who favor a more straightforward cost structure with standard spreads and no trading commissions.

The update is driven by growing user demand and feedback around more intuitive trading experiences. Rather than imposing a single model, Bitget CFD now gives users the flexibility to choose the account type that best matches their capital size, trading strategy, experience level, and personal preferences

Multi-asset access is becoming the new standard for trading platforms, and CFD is central to how Bitget is delivering that future,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget“By introducing Zero-Fee Mode, we are providing users with greater flexibility to engage in global markets, further advancing our mission to make financial opportunities more accessible within a single, integrated ecosystem

This introduction follows a string of successes for Bitget CFD, including its debut industry honor as the Best Global Multi-Asset Trading Platform at the Online Trading Expo. Previously, the platform noted that non-crypto assets accounted for up to 40% of trading activity on certain days this year. Gold and U.S. indices, such as the NAS100, remain the platform’s two most popular trading products, driving overall volume growth.

Within Bitget’s UEX vision, Bitget CFD plays a key role in connecting crypto and traditional market access through one integrated trading ecosystem. The addition of Zero-Fee Mode strengthens Bitget’s broader effort to make multi-asset trading more accessible, flexible, and aligned with different user needs.
