(Bloomberg) -- Oil tumbled below $60 a barrel in New York with the OPEC+ alliance said to be set to agree to a production increase later this week.U.S. crude futures fell 1.5% on Tuesday to the lowest in more than a week, while its global counterpart Brent hit a two-week low. The widespread view among the producer group is that the market can absorb additional barrels, according to people familiar with the matter. That could put the alliance on track to implement the majority of the 1.5 million barrel-a-day output hike that’s up for debate on Thursday.Oil’s underlying market structure has also weakened this week. The backwardation, an indication of tightening supplies, seen in key timespreads is shrinking. At the same time, some pockets of physical oil market strength appear to be wobbling, with observed flows of North Sea crude grades to Asia dropping in February to the lowest in four months.“While the Saudi surprise cut really kick-started this move higher, the unwinding of that will be more difficult for the market,” said Edward Moya, senior market analyst at Oanda Corp. “There is still significant risk for the short-term outlook.”Crude has rallied more than 20% since the start of the year with support from a range of factors, including Saudi Arabia’s unilateral output cuts. The rollout of vaccines and an investor charge into commodities have also underpinned the gains. Even if OPEC and its allies restore 2.4 million barrels a day of crude output by June, global oil inventories are set to decline each month this year, according to an OPEC+ panel. India has reiterated a call for the group to increase its production from April.“Prices were getting elevated enough that stabilizing the market makes sense,” said Bill O’Grady, executive vice president at Confluence Investment Management in St. Louis. “It is a difference between what was expected and what was hoped. What you expect is that they will raise production, what you hope is that they don’t.”In the U.S., domestic crude supplies rose last week by more than 7 million barrels, the American Petroleum Institute was said to report. If confirmed by the U.S. government’s storage tally on Wednesday, that would be the largest weekly build since December. Meanwhile, the API report also showed large declines in gasoline and distillate inventories, which fell by nearly 10 million barrels and roughly 9 million barrels, respectively.The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies must decide how much output is to be restored, with current reductions totaling just over 7 million barrels a day. The group is the largest actor in the oil market, with collective production covering more than 40% of worldwide demand.Saudi Arabia always said that its voluntary supply reduction would only last for two months. The kingdom will start to roll back its extra cut as planned in April, but is still discussing internally whether to return all of the barrels in a single month, or over a longer period, said people familiar with the deliberations.Meanwhile, oil shipments from OPEC’s Persian Gulf producers edged higher last month, despite the Saudi cut. Increased shipments from Kuwait and Iraq more than offset lower flows from the UAE and Saudi Arabia, vessel-tracking data monitored by Bloomberg show.(An earlier version of this story corrected daily percentage decline in second paragraph)For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.

Himegami Himegami Harju County, Estonia, March 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As the cryptocurrency market continues to mature, crypto projects also continue to evolve further driving the evolution of the market. So far, we have seen cryptocurrency projects with a fixed supply for the native tokens. The ultimate aim here has been to create scarcity and drive crypto prices higher. Now, we believe it’s time for creating elastic supply of decentralized digital currencies. KGR is one such dynamic and completely decentralized elastic supply protocol that aims to cater to the liquidity needs of the broader crypto market, and more importantly, to solve the issues of market manipulation. The KRG cryptocurrency achieves better balance of supply and demand as it correlates a synthetic asset’s price perfectly with the price of its underlying asset. The KGR token is basically an elastic cryptocurrency with its target price at 1 Japanse Yen adjusted for inflation. The price of KGR can be higher or lower than 1 Yen, however, the supply is always adjusted to meet the target of 1 Japanese yen (¥). If high demand drives the price higher above 1 Yen, the Himegami protocol will add more supply creating a selling pressure and a ‘rebase’ action. To distribute the KGR token to the token holders, the system would be able to issue 100,000 tokens per rebase then sell it on public exchanges following a first-come-first-serve rule. The unsold tokens in the day will be burned. This method was implemented in smart contracts. This makes KGR one-of-its-kind cryptocurrency with such flexibility and supply elasticity. The Himegami rebase system is implemented every 1385 minutesto rebase the supply. The rebase function is a new concept to the crypto market and is basically associated to supply smoothening for decentralized elastic supply tokens like KGR. Since the KGR tokens expand and contract based on the demand and supply, the rebase mechanism ensures that the percentage holding for users remains the same. We envision the Himegami protocol to be a hedge asset for all of the crypto world as well as to the emerging sector of Decentralized Finance (DeFi). The stability of KGR can help DeFi investors to reduce their dependency on some of the centralized stablecoins. It can work as a hedge asset, a DeFi collateral, and a stable medium of exchange for the entire crypto space. We are positioning KGR as a useful crypto token and a collateral asset for Decentralized Finance (DeFi). Its unique qualities like decentralized, profitable, self-governing, and more stable asset, makes it important to DeFi. In the future, KGR may have multiple different applications and can be used to supplement other DeFi projects like Tezos, Polkadot, Cardano, and others. Furthermore, the programmatic rebasing protocol aims to solve the issue of massive fluctuations in liquidity and volatility by making it more predictable and rewarding for everyone involved. This allows us to position Himegami not only in the current crypto ecosystem but create a whole new host of applications for it in the private DeFi ecosystems of tomorrow that many haven’t even been thought about yet.
