I am very glad to meet CZ in Tokyo. This is his return to Japan after 7 years, and during this time, the entire industry has undergone tremendous changes.

At this event, I asked CZ a question: How do you view the on-chain of everything and the tokenization of stocks?

He replied: There have not yet been large-scale coin-stock products on the market. The possible reason is that each country and region has different policies, making it difficult for coin-stock investors to receive dividends and easily redeem stocks. There are also price differences during trading. However, projects on the chain are usually global in nature, which was a significant pain point back then.

Restrict areas or try to solve it?

But he reiterated that the trend of RWA cannot be stopped. $BNB

One of the reasons Apple has for making foldable screens turned out to be the Chinese market—it even mentioned Huawei. But I’m curious why, after Cook went back in 2020, it wasn’t until 2026 that the company officially released the real device.

Back then, foldable phones were still priced highly. The Huawei foldable phone that Cook mentioned apparently cost 16,999 yuan at the time. .

Wow, seriously—has this app been hacked, or what’s going on? There’s an app in the Apple Store called “Russian Kela.” You can also find it in overseas stores as “RuskuCra.” It suddenly shot up to the top of the efficiency chart and ranked first in downloads.

On the surface, it looks like a digital game, but once you open it, everything feels completely off—what about Apple’s review process?

Because of the whole foldable phone matter, they ended up defecting or getting slapped in the face

It’s a pity that Hu Chenfeng can’t speak up right now—otherwise it would definitely be pretty interesting

According to the latest Reuters and Bloomberg reports, China’s domestically made AI chips have not seen a major price war. On the contrary, they are in short supply.

Huawei has reportedly notified some customers that the recommended external selling price for its AI processing chip, the 950DT, has been increased by 20% to 50% compared with two months ago, to RMB 250,000. At the same time, Chinese chips from companies such as Cambricon and Moore Threads have also raised prices in parallel.

The 950DT is one of Huawei’s main chips benchmarked against Nvidia’s high-end offerings. Like the H100 and B200, it is an AI chip with built-in memory. Previously, it was also reported that DeepSeek placed large-scale preorders.

How do you actually pronounce “iPhone Duo”?

All morning, I heard different pronunciations—“duo”, “doo”, “duo”, and even “doe” and “jollo”—my head is spinning.

I’m totally confused now.

I looked into Apple’s foldable iPhone Duo and the prices in different regions. All I can say is that once again, the guys in the US have won big.

In the US, the lowest configuration with 256 GB costs $1,999. In Hong Kong, it’s 17,499 HKD, about $2,230. Meanwhile, mainland China charges 15,999 RMB, which is about $2,384.

Most other regions are also priced with a markup of roughly $200 to $400.

And then the mainland version still has some hardware changes due to policy adjustments.

Biden’s son’s cryptocurrency project—LAPTOP—this morning displayed that a social media account was frozen by X’s official account. After last night’s spike and subsequent drop, this cryptocurrency has fallen from a peak market cap of 315.4 billion to 840 million. The number of victims is in the tens of thousands.

Now, bro not only has a long history of hard drug use, has been convicted federally, and has a debt record, but he’s also added a token-issuing crash to the list...

Liu Xiang’s situation finally has a result. Bro just posted a clarification piece.

When it came to either a buyout and resettlement or choosing one’s own employment, he ultimately chose the former. He received a buyout and resettlement payment of 494,000 yuan, which is lower than the 850,000 to 1.5 million yuan previously estimated by domestic media.

But bro still threw out a big point: he complained that in the past, the government kept every year cracking down on being “on the payroll but not working.” So why, 11 years later, did the Shanghai Sports Bureau only now, in such a hurry, make him choose between the two options?

This also fits earlier analysis—probably the rectification requirements from the inspection team at the start of the year. That’s what forced the bro, who’d been outside the system for 11 years, to be quickly brought back and called to a meeting to make a decision.

Now bro is free to take advertisements and doesn’t have to hand a cut upstairs anymore. But some colleagues say that he’s currently addicted to games and has turned into a shut-in, so he probably isn’t as interested in making money as before.

Cyberpunk has become reality. Multiple JD.com employees have disclosed that many administrative staff at the JD.com Beijing campus have been instructed to wear black collection devices to record the actions and behavioral processes of distilled employees.

The current targets include cleaning personnel, maintenance staff, receptionists, and more. It is expected that in the future, about 100,000 JD.com employees in different professions will participate in this data distillation program.

Sadness: Meta recently released its AI assistant Muse, and has been heavily promoting it of late. But in reality, the name Muse on its own Instagram has long been taken by a band called Muse (the UK rock band). For years, they’ve been using that name and updating their Instagram account.

Until recently, netizens discovered that the “muse” name that belonged to them had been changed to museband.

Wow—before this, at OpenAI; this year, a young guy, Jacob Coxon, went to Anthropic. He was worried that AI might really end up wiping out humanity, so he decided to quit and get out of the industry.

He believes this AI thing will soon become far better than humans, and that development can’t really be stopped—it’ll quickly be able to break into any system, rewrite an industry overnight, and then go on to seize resources and power for itself.

Even the people who created it in-house believe it could kill everyone within the next decade.

He also accuses the leading companies behind ChatGPT and Claude of essentially betting their lives on it.

Inside those firms, many people don’t take this seriously. Even though Anthropic’s internal team behind Claude likely knows this is true, they think other AI companies won’t hit the brakes because of the risk—so they feel they have to sprint to the finish line first, even if they know it’s dangerous.

Once an AI model can make itself stronger, humans will find it very hard to pause it again. He told reporters that, following the most aggressive path, it could already be out of control by the end of next year. And inside the company, colleagues are already talking in terms like “the endgame” and “the critical moment,” preparing for a full loss of control.

Ghost stories again. Codex and ChatGPT product manager Tibo say the latest GPT 6 Astra model requirements are unprecedented—despite having fully expanded compute capacity, it may mean pausing all new Pro subscriptions.

Given that lately a lot of people have felt that Astra has been responding more slowly, especially for work-related requests, combined with what he said, it’s safer to turn it on in advance.

Shocking—there are actually even such “passport-grabbing” tactics using German nationality.

Germany has a rule: during the Nazi era, people who were stripped of their German nationality and their descendants can apply to have their nationality restored.

As a result, there are 32 people—mostly Chinese guys—who, with the help of intermediaries in Israel, added children to the names of German couples who had descendants. Put simply, it’s like “attaching” a German father on paper for this group that wants German identity.

But the problem is that those couples didn’t know that several sons and daughters suddenly appeared on the documents. Then they even went on to invent grandchildren. In the end, the clients turned into the fictional descendants of these fictional children.

And this is why the scheme was eventually exposed. It was about a year ago when residents in London reported to the public prosecutor’s office that a Chinese guy had put together a genealogy claiming to be the descendants of Jewish victims of the Holocaust, in order to process German citizenship.

The prosecution and the Federal Criminal Police Office launched a case. Later, the investigation kept expanding, and it has now grown into these 32 people.

In addition, in 2024, a man named Liu was involved in the kidnapping and killing of two Chinese businessmen in the Philippines—one of whom had American citizenship. When the FBI later tracked him down, it found that he and his family were using German passports, but their identities didn’t match.

So that same year in October, after he was arrested in the United States, he admitted that he had spent about $600,000 and managed to obtain German citizenship in just over a year. He said he forged himself as a descendant of someone whose German nationality had been stripped during the Nazi period. This lead was also shared with German police.

In the end, this gray, fast-track path to German citizenship was finally uncovered.

That legendary trader, Eugene the pigeon, who gave up on trading cryptocurrency at market lows and went next door to play AI U.S. stocks at high prices—two months later, he posted to admit it. In the recent major market swings, he took a lot of losses.

However, he believes AI chip stocks will still kick off a new round of gains, and the reason is Anthropic’s IPO.

An American YouTube vlogger reveals that Huawei’s marketing agency has been extensively looking for English-language creators to pay for promotional exposure for its latest foldable phone, the Mate XT 2.

However, to prevent people from noticing this is paid advertising, the agency requires those creators not to label or admit that this is a paid ad post (even if the platform requires disclosure).

They asked creators to promote the phone before Apple’s product launch event.

The first time I saw the netizens on Weibo and Xiaohongshu, they were all arguing about just one thing.

And behind it, the cause was an offline incident—full of twists and turns. Three groups of people took turns criticizing: first the woman, then the child, and then the police. They argued for an entire day and night.

U.S. Treasury Secretary officially admits that he is the banker for this round of the yen. He said, “If you want to bet with me, then come on!”

He said that when we step in to intervene in the yen exchange rate, I clearly understand what Japan, the Bank of Japan, and Japan’s policymakers will do next. “If you’re not convinced, then come and place your bet with me.”
