Did anyone win Monday night’s Powerball drawing for the estimated jackpot of $629 million?
The cash option for the Nov. 24 jackpot was $291.6 million.
Here’s what we know about the drawing on Monday, Nov. 24.
The winning numbers for the Nov. 24 drawing were 8, 16, 26, 30, 58 and the Powerball was 14. The Powerplay was 2X.
The estimated jackpot for this drawing was $629 million with the cash option of $291.6 million.
No ticket matched the numbers to win the jackpot or the Match 5 plus Power Play $2 million prize. A ticket sold in Illinois won the $1 million Match 5 prize.
The next drawing is on Wednesday, Nov. 26. The estimated jackpot for this drawing has grown to $681 million with a cash value of $315.7 million.
Powerball drawings take place three times a week, every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET.
The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.
The Powerball is played in 45 states, including Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky, and in Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. You do not have to be a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident to play Powerball.
You can purchase tickets at gas stations, convenience stores and supermarkets in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. Sales cut-off times vary by one to two hours before the drawing, depending on the selling jurisdiction.
You can also purchase tickets in Ohio through the Ohio Lottery website, www.ohiolottery.com.
A single Powerball ticket costs $2. Pay an additional $1 to add the Power Play for a chance to multiply all Powerball winnings except for the jackpot. Players can also add the Double Play for an additional $1 to have a second chance at winning $10 million.
To play, select five numbers from 1 to 69 for the white balls, then select one number from 1 to 26 for the red Powerball.
You can choose your lucky numbers on a play slip or let the lottery terminal randomly pick your numbers.
To win, match one of the 9 Ways.

A $1 million Massachusetts State Lottery prize was claimed Monday.
The prize was claimed off of the instant ticket game "$10,000,000 Cash Blast," which was purchased at a 7-Eleven in Saugus.
The game has two top prize tickets worth $10,000,000 still waiting to be claimed. The odds of winning the top prize are 1 in 4,368,000, while the odds of winning the $1 million prize are 1 in 2,620,800.
Overall, at least 680 prizes worth $600 or more were won or claimed in Massachusetts on Monday, including 32 in Springfield, 14 in Worcester and 73 in Boston.
The Massachusetts State Lottery releases a full list of winning tickets every day. The list only includes winning tickets worth more than $600.
There were also two Massachusetts Powerball players that walked away with $50,000 prizes Monday.
One of the winning tickets was purchased in North Andover at Winners Corner Market. The other was purchased in Gardner at Jays Variety.
The winning numbers were 08-16-26-30-58, Powerball: 14, Power Play: 2X.
The Powerball jackpot was worth an estimated $654 million with a cash value of $303.2 million. As of Tuesday morning, it has increased to $681 million with a cash value of $315.7 million. The next drawing is Wednesday.
The two largest lottery prizes won so far in 2025 were each worth $15 million. One of the prizes was from a winning “Diamond Deluxe” scratch ticket sold in Holyoke, and the other was from a “300X” scratch ticket sold on Cape Cod.

Sign up to have blog posts delivered straight to your inbox! <br>The college football season is hitting rival games, conference championships, and playoff season. Similar to many Alabamans, I may be a little too invested in the SEC football season and the upcoming bowl bids. Regardless of your preferred team, most of us yearn for solid competition in the sports we either play or watch. We enjoy seeing how each team can challenge themselves and each other and the upsets or comebacks that seem unbelievable. We often consider it bad sportsmanship to immediately call suspicion after a surprising loss.<br>Competition doesn’t only exist on the field. It also exists in the market. So why then do we seem not to greet technology disruptors’ success with the same sense of pride and excitement as an upset in sports? Instead, it seems policymakers and pundits meet success with skepticism, similar to a team or fans that immediately rush to blame the refs or call the other team cheaters rather than admitting they got outplayed.<br>The reality is that technological disruptors and sports upsets have a lot in common. Before their disruption, the records, dynasties, and top teams often seem as if they will never be beaten. Headlines often talk about looking for the next great in a team or a player that resembles a current great. Sometimes that works, but often the next great is the player or team that sees the game differently or finds a unique way to win or excel that was previously ignored.<br>The same is true with the tech sector. Headlines will question who is the next Facebook, Google, or <a href="https://fortune.com/1998/03/02/how-yahoo-won-the-search-wars/">previously the next AOL</a>. But often times, the next big thing is the company that provides a completely different and disruptive product that we couldn’t have predicted.<br>The reality is that, just as in sports, the signs of the next great player are often there but only visible to a few. If we only look for the players who play like Michael Jordan or Tom Brady, we might miss some of the most exciting and innovative changes to the game.<br>The same is often the case with technological disruption and innovation. For example, some policymakers are quick to question Nvidia’s seemingly rapid success in the AI chip market, with some even <a href="https://www.reuters.com/technology/us-progressives-push-nvidia-antitrust-investigation-2024-08-01/">calling for antitrust investigations</a>. Yet, only a few would have been aware of the chipmaker prior to the AI boom, mostly for its connection to video games. The overnight success of an innovative product often comes from long-term investment and research, taking risks, and seeing things differently than those around you, as does an unexpected upset in sports.<br>When precisely will this disruption occur is not easy to predict in sports or the tech market. Sometimes we can see it coming through regular improvement and investment. In other cases, innovations are so disruptive that competitors have to take time to figure out how to respond to truly compete at the same level. After all, as Bear Bryant once said, “Little things make the difference. Everyone is well prepared in the big things, but only the winners perfect the little things.”<br>Of course, any sport, similar to the market, has its rules. At times, we unfortunately find out that an upset wasn’t the tale of hard work, luck, and innovation that we thought it was, but rather one of doping, deflated balls, or recruiting violations. Most of us, however, don’t presume those things when we first hear about an upset or a fallen record. Perhaps we should do the same when it comes to the success of our leading tech companies and the rise of new innovative products.<br>It can be difficult at times to cheer against rivals. But at the end of the day, the beauty of competition in sports is that it is ultimately about the love of the same game. Similarly, in the tech sector, we shouldn’t presume that big is bad or that big is unstoppable. Instead, we should focus on the “love of the game” in the ways that technological innovation and disruption improve our lives regardless of the size of the company it comes from.<br>Sign up for the newsletter to receive periodic updates on Cato research, events, and publications.<br><a class="link--fancy-hover link--fancy-hover--prominent" href="/ecommunity">View All Newsletters</a><br><br><a href="https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMigAFBVV95cUxOelNKamNoREhnODAzdzBWUVhnTnJJcW1fam1TaGxKaDdDQmpmeHVLVDNRSWJxX3V1cDNzVkdJTTBuRnVFbDJ4azI2OGU5WjlGQndkWnVwdXc3OWpRVDU0cEYySG91NURvLTZXR3M2N05Nal9mRG51eGhmRGhuRkdHeA?oc=5">source</a>

Innovation milestones like NFTs and DeFi spearheaded the rapid change taking place in the world of digital finance. New technologies totally rewrite the rules on ownership, investment, payments, and how value is exchanged on the internet. Their rise also informs ongoing discussions around CBDC vs Cryptocurrency in India-in particular, as India explores its own digital rupee while millions engage with private crypto assets and Web3 platforms.
A non-fungible token, commonly referred to by the abbreviation NFT, is a unique digital asset recorded on the blockchain. Unlike cryptocurrencies, which are interchangeable-such as Bitcoin or Ethereum-every NFT is one-of-a-kind and cannot be replicated.
Key Features of NFTs
Uniqueness: No two NFTs are the same.
It keeps track of ownership: the blockchain.
Interoperability: NFTs can be leveraged beyond platforms and into the game itself.
Digital & Real-World Use Cases: Digital art, music, real estate, certificates, identity, etc.
Popular Use Cases
Digital Art and Collectibles: Artists tokenize their works and sell directly to global audiences.
Gaming assets: The players buy characters, skins, weapons, and other items in-game as NFTs that truly belong to them.
Real Estate Tokenization: Ownership of property is divided into digital tokens.
Brand Loyalty Programs: NFTs as exclusive passes, membership cards, or event tickets.
Adoption of NFTs across the world continues to grow, and of course, that conversation over CBDC vs Cryptocurrency in India plays a significant role here, too, as that country’s government works to regulate digital assets while fostering innovation.
DeFi stands for Decentralized Finance, meaning financial services based on blockchain technology but without banks and intermediaries. It allows users to lend, borrow, trade, insure, and invest with the help of smart contracts.
DeFi platforms run on blockchains, such as Ethereum. Smart contracts automatically execute rules and transactions, thereby doing away with intermediaries like banks.
Core DeFi Services
Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs) like Uniswap.
Lending & Borrowing Platforms like Aave
Yield Farming & Staking
Insurance Protocols
Stablecoins and Liquidity Pools
Benefits of DeFi
Global access without paperwork
Lower fees
No central control
High transparency
Offers new earning opportunities
NFTs + DeFi: A Powerful Combination
If NFTs represent ownership, DeFi allows for exchange. They create new economies together.
Examples of Combined Use
Using NFTs as loan collateral
Earning passive income with NFT staking
NFT-based identity for DeFi access
Tokenised real-world assets traded on DeFi platforms
These innovations are part of the broader conversation that shapes the future of CBDCs versus cryptocurrencies in India, as policymakers ponder decentralized tools interacting with centralized digital currency frameworks.
When NFTs meet DeFi, the result is NFTFi — a growing area where users earn, borrow, or trade using NFT-backed financial tools.
Examples of NFTFi Use Cases
NFTs as loan collateral
Staking NFTs to earn passive income
Identity-based NFTs used for decentralized access
Tokenised real-world assets (RWAs) traded on DeFi platforms
Together, NFTs, DeFi, and NFTFi create an interconnected digital economy that continues to influence India’s approach to blockchain innovation.
India is now considering a digital rupee, issued by the nation’s central bank, the Reserve Bank of India or RBI. In contrast to crypto, a CBDC is a government-issued digital currency that is centrally managed.
Impact on India
NFTs and DeFi platforms rely on cryptocurrencies, not CBDCs.
A strong crypto ecosystem fosters innovation in gaming, art, tokenization, and fintech.
While government digital currency perhaps makes some kinds of payments more efficient, it does not replace decentralized innovation in any way.
Increased awareness of NFTs and DeFi strengthens public understanding about CBDC versus Cryptocurrency in India.
As India strengthens its Web3 framework, both systems, CBDCs and cryptocurrencies, can coexist for different purposes.
India is advancing toward a full rollout of the e₹ (Digital Rupee), issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Unlike cryptocurrencies, a CBDC is centralized, government-controlled, and mirrors the value of the Indian Rupee.
Here’s how NFTs, DeFi, and NFTFi affect the debate between the e-Rupee and decentralized crypto assets:
NFT, DeFi, and NFTFi systems rely on cryptocurrencies, not CBDCs.
A strong crypto ecosystem fuels innovation in gaming, art, tokenization, and fintech.
The Digital Rupee may modernize payments but cannot replicate decentralized innovation.
Growing awareness of Web3 tools helps the public understand the differences between
the government-backed e-Rupee and privately issued cryptocurrencies.
India can support both: CBDCs for efficient payments and crypto for innovation, investment, and tokenization.
India’s Web3 ecosystem is expanding rapidly, creating opportunities for creators, startups, and developers.
Opportunities
New income models for artists, musicians, and game creators
Expansion of blockchain and fintech jobs
Global trading and investment access
Tokenized startups attracting global capital
More transparent and automated financial systems
Challenges
Lack of clear, consistent regulations
Security risks such as hacks or smart contract vulnerabilities
Low beginner awareness
Complex interfaces on DeFi platforms
Market volatility
Despite these challenges, the rise of NFTs, DeFi, and NFTFi is playing a major role in shaping India’s conversations around centralized digital money vs decentralized assets — especially as the country explores both the Digital Rupee and a growing Web3 ecosystem at the same time.
While NFTs represent unique digital assets, cryptocurrencies are interchangeable tokens used as digital money.
Yes, NFTs can be staked, used as collateral for loans, or integrated into DeFi platforms to generate financial rewards.
DeFi uses smart contracts on blockchains to enable automated financial activities: lending, borrowing, and trading.
CBDC is a government-issued digital rupee. That means it, as a digital currency variant, figures within the CBDC vs. Cryptocurrency discussion in India but never replaces the decentralized crypto assets applied to NFTs and DeFi.
They are not illegal, but the regulatory framework is still evolving. Users should stay updated and use only reputable platforms.
NFTs and DeFi are framing the future of digital finance as catalysts of open ownership, financial independence, and innovative forms of earnings. Their upward curve is also encouraging India to reconsider digital regulations—a fact shaping the debate of CBDC versus cryptocurrency in India more strongly than ever. Centralized and decentralized financial systems will each play crucial roles in innovating, ensuring safety, and fostering growth in the country’s journey toward a digital-first economy.
