The US is skeptical that the most advanced EUV lithography machine, $ASML , might have slipped into China.
However, ASML denies it. Given the machine's massive size and its automated remote monitoring system, it's nearly impossible for clients to move or operate the equipment without ASML's tech crew on site.
If I remember correctly, the machine locks up automatically if it experiences any unusual vibrations, right?
This whole situation feels like fake news. Maybe Trump is trying to play the same old game, like he did with Intel, to get the US government a stake in ASML.
Status of Handling and Compensation Across Major Exchanges binance - 100% refund, plus 1 M SPCXB worth about 35u.
⚠️ Luckily, the hedge position for $SPCX wasn't too heavy, and I managed to dodge a bullet in the end. Naturally, I thought I'd definitely get my coins, but in reality, until the coins are in hand, there's still a lot of uncertainty. A low-probability event like today can still happen!
Binance officially connects to the US stock market!\n"If the stock market can really make money, opening an account is going to be tough" has never been more real.\n\nIt's hard to believe that a crypto exchange can now directly buy US stocks and ETFs, something we couldn't even imagine before! Sure, the fees are a bit high? But at least we can buy now.\n\nOn May 22, the Chinese SEC cracked down on Tiger Brokers, Futu, and Changqiao, labeling them as illegal cross-border operations. They're not just facing confiscation of all illegal gains, but also severe penalties, with a 2-year transition period (during which you can only sell, not buy or transfer funds).\n\nFor Chinese users, opening a Binance account and depositing is way easier than with traditional brokers, right?\n\nWorried about CRS reporting issues? Soon there will be Binance's stock tokens, bstocks, allowing us to bypass that through blockchain.\n\nChange your app language setting to "Traditional Chinese," and the trading interface will directly show US stocks!
The myth of the microstrategy's "never sell Bitcoin" approach comes to an end?
The narrative of the Bitcoin perpetual motion machine for the past $MSTR has been simple: just buy, don’t sell, issue bonds, issue shares, keep buying BTC, wait for Bitcoin to pump, then push the stock price up, creating a cycle.
Saylor mentioned on the conference call: "We won't just sit there saying 'we will never sell Bitcoin' anymore. We want to be net accumulators of Bitcoin, not only increasing our total Bitcoin holdings but more importantly, enhancing each Bitcoin per share, because we believe that’s the most valuable thing for MSTR shareholders in the long term."
He also added: "If selling Bitcoin can buy dollars, reduce debt, or provide gains per Bitcoin share, we will consider doing that in the future." This is the first official shift in Strategy since Saylor established the 'never sell' approach, moving towards actively managing the balance sheet, with the core goal shifting from pure hoarding to "maximizing the value of each Bitcoin per share," and even suggesting that they might sell some Bitcoin to pay dividends.
Crazy market inoculation to make the market 'immune' Currently, Strategy has enough cash to cover dividends for over 18 months, and now indicates the potential to sell Bitcoin in the future, which somewhat reduces concerns about a Ponzi bubble. This represents a shift into a selling phase, and whether they will buy back later is another story.
Strait of Hormuz blockade enters month 2 20% of global oil and gas is totally stuck But! The market chooses not to fear! The stock market keeps hitting new highs! #石油 $CL
The UAE (United Arab Emirates) is exiting OPEC on May 1st, gearing up to significantly boost its independent oil output.
Currently, the UAE has the Abu Dhabi oil pipeline, transporting crude from Habshan to Fujairah Port, around 1.5 to 1.8 million barrels a day, bypassing the Strait of Hormuz for exports.
In the short term, oil prices are influenced by war and transit risks. In the long run, the UAE's production increase will weaken OPEC and drive prices down!
Litecoin just revealed a zero-day vulnerability, with hackers leveraging the exploit to launch a DoS attack on the mining pool. They managed to execute 'phantom withdrawals' to a third-party DEX by submitting invalid MWEB transactions from outdated mining pool nodes.
The dev team is now patching the hole and has completed a reorg of 13 blocks through hash power consensus, eliminating invalid transactions from the erroneous fork.
The essence of PoW is achieving consensus through computational power.
Trump project party borrowed $260 million with $WLFI , is 36% annualized $USD1 really appealing?
The project party mortgaged WLFI with a total supply of 5%, borrowing $170 million USD1. Additionally, mortgaged USD1, borrowing about $100 million USDC.
Currently, Dolomite USD1 has an annualized interest rate as high as 36%, but the actual situation is a bit dangerous!
As long as you deposit USD1 now to earn interest, almost immediately it will be continuously withdrawn by "the escape brother" 0x289c204b35859bfb924b9c0759a4fe80f610671c, currently there are still 7.5 million waiting for redemption, but the current balance of the Dolomite USD1 pool is close to 0.
Risks: 1. The project party cashing out a large amount, once WLFI drops significantly, it will replicate the "bad debt" script of that year’s CRV. Currently, WLFI market depth is extremely shallow, both on-chain and exchange depth are very limited, making it impossible to handle large liquidations.
2. The project party artificially creates high interest, and the current high interest rate of 36% has a promotional effect far greater than the actual narrative + exchange activities.
Ways to reduce risk? 1. Short WLFI while depositing. 2. Borrow ETH while depositing, pay attention to the liquidation rate of ETH, reducing losses after encountering bad debts.
USD1 has a 1:1 reserve of US dollars and US bonds, making it a relatively safe stablecoin, but if bad debts occur, and you cannot recover or it decreases, that's another matter.
【Today's US-Iran Situation】Houthi Forces Join the Fight, Risks in the Strait of Mandeb + Red Sea Increase Fuel Prices
🔴 The conflict is escalating, moving further away from a quick resolution 🔴 Houthi forces are joining the fight, targeting the Red Sea shipping routes 🔴 The Strait of Hormuz is blocked, with sporadic passage
Will the final outcome be Trump TACO?
Currently, Iran's strategy is to use ultra-cheap flying motorcycles (witness drones) to exhaust interception missiles, ultimately traditional missiles will only intercept important targets, and in the end, they will learn from each other using ultra-cheap drones, seeing who is willing to go to any lengths, comparing whose bottom line is lower.
Additionally, the US military is continuously increasing troop numbers, but it's unlikely they will conduct an air drop to occupy "Halk Island" and engage in ground warfare. If there are large-scale casualties, anti-war sentiments will rise in the United States.
Has Bitcoin been cracked? The Criminal Assets Bureau of Ireland recently successfully cracked a Bitcoin wallet, retrieving 500 BTC, with a total of 6000 BTC later The private key was printed on an A4 sheet of paper and hidden in a fishing rod case, which was later cleared out by the landlord and lost in the house
The reasons are probably these: 1. Used a problematic pseudo-random number generator The random number during private key generation was not secure enough, like the Prince Group, so the private key could potentially be deduced
2. The private key was stored in a file with low encryption strength The private key itself is fine, but it was cracked after accessing the file to obtain the private key
3. He lied, secretly went to look for the private key after coming out and was caught.
Why do I feel like he wants to steal a hit or TACO?
Trump: I am pleased to report that the United States and Iran have had very good and productive conversations over the past two days, discussing matters related to completely and thoroughly resolving our hostile relationship in the Middle East.
