Starlink is doing something much bigger than helping people stream faster. It improves standards of living. More rural connectivity means access to global markets, online education, digital jobs, financial tools, AI, e-commerce, and modern economic participation itself. That’s why Starlink access keeps lifting GDP everywhere it spreads. Countries treating...

The best time to understand a product is before everyone else is using it That’s one reason I’ve been following Quant AI With 100,000+ people already on the waitlist ahead of its public launch, interest is clearly building around what Quant AI is creating What stands out to me isn’t just the numbers It’s the problem the product is trying to solve Instead of adding another layer of charts, indicators, and dashboards, Quant AI is focused on making market research easier to navigate. With Quant AI, users can: ➫ Explore markets through natural conversations ➫ Follow crypto, stocks, and commodities from one interface ➫ Use chat and voice instead of constantly switching between tools ➫ Understand both opportunities and risks before taking action ➫ Move from research to execution through a simpler workflow We already have access to more market data than ever before The challenge isn’t finding information It’s knowing what matters That’s where I think Quant AI is taking a different approach, helping users spend less time searching and more time understanding. Maybe that’s one reason the waitlist has grown so quickly. People aren’t just looking for another trading platform. They’re looking for a better way to make sense of the markets. If you’re curious about where AI and financial intelligence are heading, now is a good time to explore what Quant AI is building before the public launch. Join the whitelist 👇 #QuantAIPioneers

🚨 WARNING: A MAJOR SHIFT IS HAPPENING IN THE GLOBAL ECONOMY RIGHT NOW Japan has sold roughly $71 BILLION in U.S. Treasuries while defending the yen China has sold another $62 BILLION Combined, that is $133 BILLION moving out of U.S. debt But the real story is bigger than the number Both countries are reducing exposure to dollar assets while gold keeps becoming more important Japan is using its reserves to support the yen China is pushing the yuan deeper into global trade through gold, new settlement infrastructure, and alternative payment systems And China has now been accumulating gold for OVER 20 STRAIGHT MONTHS This is not just reserve management anymore It is a structural shift → Treasuries are being sold → Gold reserves are rising → Alternative payment systems are expanding → Dollar dependence is slowly being reduced China is also building out gold infrastructure through Hong Kong, the Shanghai Gold Exchange, and offshore vault networks The objective is obvious LESS DEPENDENCE ON THE DOLLAR And gold is becoming one of the main tools behind that move The chain reaction is simple: Treasury selling → Higher bond pressure → Currency intervention → More gold demand → Less dollar reliance China is not just stacking gold IT IS BUILDING MORE FINANCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE AROUND IT Japan is not trying to break markets either It is trying to stabilize the yen But selling large amounts of dollar assets has consequences Bond yields react Currencies react Liquidity shifts Risk assets feel it next This is how reserve systems change Not in ONE DAY Slowly Then all at once THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL ORDER IS STARTING TO MOVE!!!👀

Everyone is waiting for the next big move in crypto. Meanwhile, the market underneath is already changing. Institutional crypto products are becoming more sophisticated. 21shares is adding staking directly to its ETH and DOT ETF names, while BlackRock and Fidelity are also moving deeper into staked ETH products. That matters because institutional exposure is evolving beyond simply holding an asset and waiting for price appreciation. Yield is becoming part of the product. But the market itself still has the same weakness we’ve seen for years: leverage. XRP went from roughly $0.99 to $1.69 in five days before the reversal wiped out hundreds of millions in leveraged longs. BTC, ETH and SOL were pulled into the move too. So while the financial rails are getting better, positioning can still get reckless very quickly. And this isn’t limited to crypto-native assets. RWA adoption is expanding through networks like BNB Chain, putting more real-world assets in front of more users. Now the problem shifts from issuance to liquidity. More assets across more chains means more distribution, but without interoperability, liquidity can remain fragmented. Even gaming sits somewhere in this transition. The fight around GTA 6’s physical ownership model is a reminder that digital assets are increasingly becoming licenses, access rights and programmable products rather than things people physically own. That’s the bigger shift I’m watching. Crypto isn’t developing in isolation anymore. ETFs, RWAs, digital ownership, tokenized assets and onchain markets are all moving toward the same direction: more financial and economic activity becoming digitally accessible. The question isn’t whether this transition is happening. It’s whether the infrastructure can keep up once everyone stops waiting and starts participating.

🚨 JAPAN JUST PUT A REAL QUANTUM COMPUTER ONLINE FOR THE WORLD TO ACCESS. And most people still don’t realize how big this moment is. For decades, quantum computers sounded like science fiction: machines that use quantum states instead of ordinary binary bits. Now researchers in Japan have opened access to a real superconducting quantum system connected to the internet. Why this matters: • quantum simulations • next-generation AI research • new material discovery • drug development • cryptography disruption • solving problems impossible for classical computers But quantum computers work nothing like normal machines. A regular computer checks possibilities one at a time. A quantum computer can explore many probability states simultaneously through superposition and entanglement. In simple terms: It doesn’t just calculate faster… It calculates differently. That’s why these systems look so strange. The giant gold structure isn’t “the computer” itself. It’s an ultra-cold dilution refrigerator designed to keep the quantum processor near absolute zero so fragile quantum states don’t collapse. The terrifying implication is this: Humanity may be entering the first era where computation starts operating on the rules of quantum reality itself. And once quantum hardware becomes scalable… Entire industries may be rewritten from the ground up. What happens when computers stop thinking like machines… and start behaving like physics itself? Which field do you think gets transformed first and would you actually trust it with something important?

🚨 SOMETHING MUCH BIGGER MAY BE BUILDING BEHIND THE SCENES. Warnings about food, energy, debt, AI, and financial instability are suddenly coming from some of the most powerful people in global finance. JPMorgan research has warned that the next major global food crisis may not be short-lived and could emerge as soon as next year. Bill Gates has also been warning about hunger, malnutrition, and child mortality moving in the wrong direction after decades of progress. At the same time, Jamie Dimon says the risks are "bigger than other people think" and continues warning about serious stress building in bond markets. Ray Dalio, central bankers, and energy executives keep circling around the same risks: Food. Energy. War. Debt. AI disruption. WHEN THIS MANY PEOPLE ARE WARNING ABOUT THE SAME THINGS AT THE SAME TIME, IT'S WORTH PAYING ATTENTION. Now comments attributed to Bank of Japan voice Yuto 🇯🇵 are adding another layer to the story: the idea that policymakers could eventually point to an outside crisis as the explanation for economic pain already building underneath the system. We've seen a version of this sequence before. In 2019, the repo market suddenly seized up. Liquidity disappeared, overnight funding rates exploded into double digits, and the Fed was forced to inject cash into the system. Then COVID arrived. What followed was one of the largest monetary responses in modern history, with trillions of dollars created to keep the financial system functioning. THE FINANCIAL STRESS STARTED BEFORE THE CRISIS DID. And today, the underlying problems are arguably even larger. Global debt keeps climbing. Government deficits have become structural. Bond yields remain difficult to contain. Foreign demand for Treasuries is under pressure in key markets. Meanwhile, central banks have been accumulating gold at an extraordinary pace. THE WORLD'S MONETARY AUTHORITIES ARE CLEARLY PREPARING FOR A DIFFERENT KIND OF SYSTEM. That doesn't prove anyone is engineering the next crisis. But if another major shock hits food, energy, AI, or global trade while the financial system is already under pressure, governments and central banks could once again have the justification for extraordinary monetary intervention. THE REAL QUESTION ISN'T WHETHER THE NEXT SHOCK COMES? IT'S WHAT THE FINANCIAL SYSTEM WILL LOOK LIKE AFTER IT DOES!👀

🚨 WARNING: SOMETHING EXTREMELY BAD JUST HAPPENED Foreign nations pulled BILLIONS of gold OUT of the U.S. → The Netherlands pulled 86 tonnes → France pulled 129 tonnes → Germany pulled 300 tonnes This has NEVER happened before. But nobody is talking about what that means: These are not retail investors. These are NATIONS. For decades, enormous quantities of foreign gold were stored outside national borders. Including inside the United States. Now the direction is changing. Countries don't just want to HAVE their gold on paper. They want to KNOW EXACTLY WHERE IT IS. And they want direct control over it. This is bigger than gold. Because at the exact same time, foreign nations are reassessing their exposure to U.S. Treasuries. Some are reducing holdings. Others are diversifying reserves. And China? CHINA HAS BEEN BUYING GOLD NONSTOP. Month after month, Beijing continues adding to its reserves while building alternatives to the existing dollar-based financial system. This is the part most people are missing. The global financial system isn't changing because countries suddenly stopped trusting one asset. It's changing because governments are reducing their dependence on ANY single system. The pattern is becoming increasingly clear: → Gold is being repatriated → Reserve diversification is accelerating → Biggest foreign holders are dumping U.S. Treasuries → Central banks are accumulating more gold And the implications are enormous. Because the United States has benefited for decades from one extraordinary advantage: THE DOLLAR'S CENTRAL ROLE IN GLOBAL FINANCE. Foreign governments accumulated dollars. They bought U.S. Treasuries. They stored reserves inside the Western financial system. That created enormous demand for American assets. But what happens when countries begin changing the structure of their reserves? What happens when more governments decide that physical gold belongs INSIDE their own borders? What happens when Treasury holdings become less concentrated? What happens when China keeps accumulating gold while expanding alternative financial infrastructure? That's not how major financial systems change. It starts slowly. Reserve managers diversify. Gold gets moved. Treasury exposure gets adjusted. New payment networks emerge. And China is sitting directly at the center of all this. They are preparing for a world with MULTIPLE competing financial centers. Meanwhile, other nations are bringing their own gold home. It ca mean just one thing: THE RULES OF THE GLOBAL RESERVE SYSTEM ARE CHANGING. The question is no longer whether countries are diversifying. They already are. The real question is how far this goes. Pay attention. The biggest shifts in global finance are never obvious while they are happening. Then suddenly, everyone realizes the world has changed. I've spent more than a decade watching how these markets move. And I've also called nearly every major market top and bottom. Follow and turn on notifications now. Many people will wish they had started paying attention sooner.

"Pros won’t use generative AI, and when the bubble pops, nobody will ever talk about it again." No. That’s delusional. 1/ Generative AI is already being used professionally at the level of big studios like Disney ($1B to OpenAI), and there’s zero doubt that studios like Industrial Light & Magic, Netflix, Hollywood VFX experts, etc. are already experimenting with it too. Or do you think they’re idiots? They’re not idiots at all. They have the experience and, more importantly, the DISTRIBUTION POWER. The point is: someone with taste, judgment, and storytelling experience, basically from their living room, will have access to (almost, or not even almost) the same capability as the big guys, because the pure "making stuff" skills have been commoditized, and the new way to create is just NATURAL LANGUAGE. What hasn’t been commoditized is good taste, the ability to create great stories that move people, and the ability to get them in front of people. So in the end, what wins is story quality and distribution. Having good taste, making a name for yourself, and owning strong IP (Marvel, etc.) will still matter. That’ll be true right up until AI is genuinely opinionated and can create by itself: if it comes to that, with zero human direction, stuff as good as (or better than) the very best human experts today, and on top of that, interactive in real time... Because yeah: there’s nothing in this universe that actually prevents that from happening. BUT WE’RE NOT THERE. For now, generative AI is a tool that needs direction and taste to make anything decent. And I hope it stays that way for a long time, because otherwise that’s going to be a brutal hit to humanity’s ego. 2/ On the "bubble": you have to distinguish between a stock valuation bubble (possible, I actually believe it) vs a bubble like some people imagine where it "pops" and we never hear about AI again. That obviously makes no sense given how insanely useful it is. It can only grow, and it’s going to grow fast, regardless of any stock market drawdowns (the internet kept growing even when valuations got nuked in 2000). Either way, the near future is going to be extremely interesting.

This is WILD! A small startup just declared war on America's most powerful telecom companies and nobody is talking about it. For decades, AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile have had an iron grip on how Americans connect to the world. They built the towers, they set the prices, and you had no real choice but to pay whatever they demanded. That stranglehold ends today. US Mobile just bundled Starlink satellite home internet together with unlimited wireless service across all three major networks and they are charging under $50 a month for the whole thing. Let that land for a second. You are getting home internet beamed down from space, plus full cellular coverage on Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile's networks, all inside one bill that costs less than most people pay for just their phone plan alone. The big carriers have been charging $120 a month just for Starlink residential internet on its own. US Mobile is handing you that same service plus an unlimited phone plan for less than half of that price. This is not a discount carrier cutting corners. US Mobile is an MVNO, a company that leases capacity from all three major networks at wholesale rates and packages them into something the big carriers would never offer, because doing so would cannibalize their own revenue streams. Their internal network names are Warp, Darkstar, and Lightspeed. Those are Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile, all three, simultaneously available to one customer on one plan. Now they are adding a fourth layer from orbit. Starlink's constellation of low-earth satellites delivers home internet that has already disrupted rural broadband. Bundled with cellular, it means one plan that follows you from your living room to the middle of nowhere. The big carriers saw this threat coming. T-Mobile has been in a satellite partnership with Starlink, but that exclusivity window has expired, meaning SpaceX can now work with anyone. US Mobile was paying attention when everyone else was not. AT&T has bet $15.6 billion on a rival satellite company called AST SpaceMobile just to try to keep up. Verizon has no credible satellite answer at all and now a nine-year-old startup from New York is selling the whole package for under $50 a month.

I went to a typical lower-income rural town in Guangxi, China... Here’s what I found. We go back to my girlfriend's hometown every year. We stay in a rural community on the outskirts of a town that I consider pretty big and busy, but is probably small in China terms 😅. Living there honestly didn't feel particularly different in terms of day to day comfort — fast internet, modern appliances, decent homes, cars and scooters everywhere, normal roads and all the everyday conveniences you'd expect. Many people here live at least partly off the land, growing crops both to eat and sell. Our family owns their home outright — no mortgage or any type of loan. Chinese people avoid bank loans wherever possible, almost allergic to the idea haha. Owning your house outright is very typical in these communities. This allows most of their income to go towards things like sending their kids to university, helping them buy apartments in bigger cities and funding retirement etc. And I actually love staying here though. Life is way more quieter and super chill. Beautiful scenery, friendly people who seem happier in general. Everyone seems to get by by helping and doing favours for each other. A family friend gave us a car to borrow for the week 🙏. We'd ride our scooters into town for food, late-night BBQ sticks or bubble tea, or head to the nearest larger town for bars, nightlife and karaoke. The town itself has everything you'd expect — multiple supermarkets, restaurants, schools and general stores. Although somehow much busier than plenty of Western towns 😂...Packed markets, really bustling and busy during the day The roads are perfectly decent too, nothing worse than you'd find a few hours outside a major Australian city. The closest big city with an airport is around two hours away and easy to reach with what seems like infinite buses haha. it's scruffier and less polished than China's major cities, to be expected obviously, same as anywhere. There's no railway station, DiDi or much food delivery — although some restaurants will deliver to your house for free, which was cool. Buses are frequent and the main form of public transport, connecting people to schools, larger towns and nearby cities. -- China haters will tell you how desperately impoverished and unliveable rural China is. But nah... It's just.. normal. 🤷‍♂️

I'm proud to share that Glean has surpassed $300M ARR, just five months after crossing $200M and growing ~3x over the past 15 months. This is an exciting milestone for Glean, and it's a signal about where the enterprise AI market is heading. We’ve long believed the real challenge in enterprise AI is not access to models. It is grounding AI in how a company actually works: its people, knowledge, workflows, permissions, and systems. That’s even clearer now. The companies creating real value with AI are not just adopting better models. They are building systems that understand their business well enough to deliver reliable outcomes at scale. That is the real moat, and it is what we’ve been building at Glean: an unrivaled context layer for enterprise AI. That context has to work across the business, not just inside a single team or use case. We see that in how customers adopt Glean: more than 85% use it across five or more job functions. It also has to meet the security and governance demands of complex enterprises. We see that in who is choosing Glean: our Fortune 500 customer count nearly doubled year over year. And it has to make economic sense as usage grows. In our recent benchmark with Claude Cowork, Glean was preferred roughly 2.5x as often as off-the-shelf MCP tools and used 30% fewer tokens on average. Better context improves both quality and efficiency. I enjoyed talking with CNBC's Deirdre Bosa about this broader shift. In enterprise AI, the winners will not be defined by better models alone. They will be defined by who builds the strongest foundation for enterprise context. Thank you to our customers, partners, and team for helping us build the future of enterprise AI.

🚨WARNING: SOMETHING EXTREMELY BAD JUST HAPPENED! FED projected to hike interest rates by 25 BPS in October. And if you think this has no impact on global markets... Just months ago, 2026 was supposed to be the year of RATE CUTS. Now the market is preparing for another HIKE. And somehow, stocks are still sitting near the ATH. Something doesn’t add up: - Oil is above $100. - Diesel prices are near record ATH. - Inflation is still sticky. - Rates are already restrictive. And now the market thinks the Fed could tighten AGAIN. So why hasn’t the market broken yet? Because one thing is still keeping it alive: THE AI BOOM. And this is where almost everyone is getting it wrong. AI isn’t just pushing stocks higher. IT IS GIVING THE FED ROOM TO STAY AGGRESSIVE. Massive AI spending keeps growth alive while a handful of mega-cap stocks continue carrying the indexes. As long as that continues, the Fed has less reason to back off. That creates a dangerous setup: AI boom → growth stays strong → inflation stays sticky → Fed keeps rates higher → another hike becomes possible. Now add: $100+ oil → higher energy costs → more inflation pressure → even less room for cuts. October or December doesn’t matter. The bigger picture does. Months ago: RATE CUTS. Now: NO CUTS → HIKE → POSSIBLY ANOTHER HIKE. The market can survive this while AI keeps carrying it. The real problem starts when AI stops. If those stocks finally crack while rates are still rising and inflation is still hot, the market loses the ONE thing absorbing all that pressure. Then it gets ugly fast: AI cracks → indexes fall → liquidity disappears → forced selling begins. And once forced selling starts, funds don’t sell what they WANT. They sell what they CAN. - Stocks. - Metals. - Bitcoin. That’s the part most people are not prepared for. And that’s exactly where the next real buying opportunity appears. I’m not afraid of the dump. I’M WAITING FOR IT. I’ve been trading markets for 15+ years. When the liquidation starts and I see the level actually worth buying, I’ll post it here like I always do. Turn notifications on. You’ll want this chart later.

What is the XDC Network? XDC Network (XDC Network) is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 built around payments, trade finance, tokenization, and enterprise blockchain use cases. Put simply, XDC is trying to bring blockchain infrastructure closer to traditional financial markets. The network launched its mainnet in 2019 and uses XinFin Delegated Proof of Stake, known as XDPoS. So, what makes XDC different from other Layer 1 networks? (1) It focuses heavily on financial infrastructure. XDC was designed with global trade and financial applications in mind. That includes trade finance, cross-border payments, real-world asset tokenization, and decentralized finance. Businesses can tokenize assets such as invoices, bonds, commodities, and other financial instruments on the network. (XDC Network Docs) (2) It is compatible with Ethereum. XDC is EVM-compatible, meaning developers can use familiar Ethereum tools and Solidity smart contracts. That makes it easier for existing Ethereum applications to migrate or expand onto XDC. The network also supports token standards such as XRC20, XRC721, and XRC1155. In Jan 2026, XDC did its Cancun hard fork, syncing with Ethereum's own upgrade and bringing EIP-1559 fee burns on-chain. (3) XDC is built for fast and inexpensive transactions. The network targets roughly two-second block times and supports more than 2,000 transactions per second. Transaction costs are also designed to remain extremely low, making high-volume financial activity more practical. That combination is particularly important for applications handling large numbers of transactions. But speed alone is not what XDC is betting on. Its bigger pitch is whether blockchain can become useful infrastructure for financial institutions and global commerce. So, how does XDC secure the network? XDC uses XDPoS 2.0, which combines delegated proof of stake with Byzantine fault-tolerant consensus. Token holders participate by supporting masternode candidates, while elected masternodes help validate transactions and produce blocks. XDPoS 2.0 also uses the HotStuff consensus protocol and adds forensic monitoring for malicious validator activity. The upgrade went live on mainnet in September 2024. It introduced three-block finality, with transactions reaching finality roughly six seconds after block inclusion. Worth noting, financial applications generally need predictable settlement rather than transactions that can remain uncertain for long periods. Then there is another important part of the XDC architecture: Subnets. XDC Subnets allow organizations to operate permissioned blockchain networks while connecting them to the broader XDC ecosystem. Companies can maintain greater control over governance, privacy, and infrastructure without abandoning interoperability with XDC. That structure is particularly relevant for institutions that cannot put sensitive commercial information directly onto a public blockchain. A company could therefore operate a private environment while using XDC Mainnet for checkpointing and broader interoperability. This creates a bridge between private enterprise infrastructure and public blockchain networks. Rather than competing purely for retail users, XDC trying to position itself as financial infrastructure for tokenized assets, trade finance, payments, and institutional markets.

🚨 JAPAN WILL REVEAL ITS NEW GOVERNMENT DEBT TOTAL ON MONDAY The previous official figure, measured on March 31, was already: ¥1,343,842,600,000,000 Around $8.5 TRILLION. On August 10, Japan will reveal how much higher that number climbed by the end of June. But the debt number is only one part of the problem. Something much bigger is happening underneath Japan’s financial system. The 2-year government bond yield just reached 1.51%. Its highest level since 1995. The 10-year yield climbed toward 2.9%. And Japan’s policy rate is now 1%. Its highest level in 31 years. That means the era of nearly free money in Japan is ending. For decades, investors borrowed cheap yen. Then moved that money into: U.S. Treasuries. Stocks. Real estate. Crypto. And markets around the world. Now borrowing in yen is becoming more expensive. And Japanese bonds are finally offering meaningful returns at home. This creates one enormous risk: Japanese capital no longer needs to stay overseas. If that money starts returning to Japan, the global carry trade begins to unwind. Foreign assets get sold. Bond yields rise. Liquidity leaves risk markets. And volatility spreads everywhere. Japan is already showing signs of panic. The government spent a record ¥6.28 TRILLION defending the yen in a single day in April. Another intervention worth an estimated $95.5 BILLION may have followed in late July. Yet the yen still collapsed toward ¥164 per dollar before recovering. Intervention is buying time. It is not fixing the underlying problem. And now Japan is trapped between two opposite decisions. Raise rates to defend the yen. Or buy more bonds to stop yields from rising. Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has already urged the Bank of Japan to increase bond purchases when necessary. But more bond buying weakens the yen. While higher rates increase the cost of servicing Japan’s massive debt. Fix one problem. Make the other one worse. Monday will not automatically crash global markets. But it will reveal how much larger Japan’s debt burden has become while borrowing costs are hitting multi-decade highs. That is the real risk. Japan financed global markets for decades. Now it may need that money back. I have studied macro cycles for 15 years. This is one of the most important liquidity shifts to watch in 2026. Follow and turn notifications on. Most people will understand what Japan triggered only after markets begin reacting.
