Driverless cars will soon be available for public use in London, a first for the British capital that brings vehicles powered by artificial intelligence to one of the world’s most congested cities.
The launch marks the beginning of British-born Wayve’s global rollout of robotaxis, which will extend to more than 10 cities, including Tokyo later this year. “We’re really excited to launch this imminently and get public riders into our (vehicles),” Kaity Fischer, Wayve’s vice president of operations, told CNN Monday.
Wayve has been testing its technology on the “complex” streets of London since 2018 and plans to launch to the public later this summer. The initial rollout would include “dozens, not hundreds” of cars, she said.
The launch in London comes as self-driving vehicles are being increasingly rolled out in major cities across the United States and elsewhere. The sudden proliferation has heightened scrutiny of what once seemed a highly futuristic technology but is now a present-day reality.
Initially, Wayve rides will be supervised by licensed Uber drivers with specialized training, before fully driverless operations begin. This approach would “prove safety” and “build trust” among the public, Fischer said. “It allows us to build a safety case… so that when we remove the drivers from the vehicles, we have a strong track record,” she added.
Back when Wayve was founded (in 2017), nobody thought automotive would put AI on a car,” said Fischer. Now, more AV companies were adopting Wayve’s approach, she said, noting that wider public awareness of generative AI systems, such as ChatGPT, had also helped.
Unlike some of its competitors, Wayve’s hardware is integrated directly into vehicles at the manufacturing stage, rather than being retrofitted afterwards.
Our technology equips vehicles with a ‘robot brain’ that can learn from and interact with real-world environments,” Wayve says on its website.
Fischer applauded the UK government’s clear legal approach to self-driving technology under the Automated Passenger Services framework. “The UK government has also really doubled down on investing in AI,” she added.

Apple on Monday announced an all-new version of Siri during its Worldwide Developers Conference, a move that could bring its roughly 15-year-old digital helper up to speed with rivals like ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini.
The tech giant also announced performance improvements for its iPhone, Mac and iPad software and new child safety features. But the new Siri is the biggest indication yet of how Apple is revamping its products as more people use chatbots and AI agents for everyday tasks.
Many will be looking to see whether Apple’s history of turning nascent technologies into popular products will apply to AI, especially after the company’s AI ambitions have faced delays.
If Apple delivers this well, Siri stops being a feature and becomes a new interaction layer for the iPhone, iPad, Mac and eventually future categories of hardware,” Francisco Jeronimo, a tech analyst for market research firm the International Data Corporation, told CNN over email.
Apple also showed how it’s infusing more AI across apps like Messages, its Safari browser and its Home app for managing smart home devices. Apple Intelligence will be able to organize Safari tabs by topic, and users will be able to create new browser extensions with a prompt. The Messages app will suggest actions, like creating a reminder or a note, based on the content of a conversation. And the Home app will be able to analyze clips from connected cameras generate descriptions.
On a personal note, some of the greatest highlights of my time as CEO have been events like this,” Cook said at the end of Apple’s presentation.
Dan Ives, global head of technology research for Wedbush Securities, called the Siri upgrades a “step in the right direction” for Apple’s AI strategy and said it sets up Cook to pass the baton to Ternus.
Apple’s large market share – more than 2.5 billion Apple devices are in use globally – could give it an edge in AI.
That could be Apple’s big opportunity. More than half of iPhones in use globally, or about 1 billion iPhones, don’t support Apple Intelligence since the technology is only available on the iPhone 15 Pro and later, according to Rana.
They’re not going to mess it up,” Munster said. “They’ve got too much at stake to drop the ball.”

OpenAI, Anthropic and SpaceX will soon have a new boss to answer to: Wall Street.
ChatGPT maker OpenAI is the latest AI giant to announce plans to go public, coming after Anthropic said it confidentially filed for an IPO last week. SpaceX, which includes Elon Musk’s AI company xAI, is set to make its market debut on Friday. The three public offerings are expected to provide the closest look yet at the state of the AI market – and potentially rack up hundreds of billions of dollars in massive stock sales.
It also means their AI businesses, which are already approaching valuations in the trillion-dollar range, will be subject to more scrutiny than ever as Wall Street demands explosive growth every three months.
Expectations that seem manageable in private markets can become relentless under the glare of public ownership,” Nigel Green, CEO of financial advisory firm deVere Group, said in an email to CNN.
Wall Street already has sky-high expectations for AI, leaving no room for anything short of blockbuster growth each quarter. For example, Broadcom, which previously struck partnerships with OpenAI and Anthropic, reported jaw-dropping earnings: revenue growth of 48% for the second quarter and expected semiconductor growth of 180% compared to last year. But that wasn’t enough to impress investors; Broadcom shares were down over 13% last week, marking its worst week since September 2024.
The IPO could indicate OpenAI and Anthropic have grown confident enough in their respective paths to profitability to face Wall Street. OpenAI and Anthropic did not immediately respond to CNN’s request for comment regarding the timing of their IPO filings.
But the numbers are just the beginning. Analysts will likely grill OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei about the future of their businesses and upcoming products on earnings calls, looking for signs that they have endless potential for growth.
That means they may have to answer publicly about things like delays in upcoming model releases, and how they plan to translate those models into paid products. Product pivots, like OpenAI’s decision to shutter its video app Sora, will likely face much more questioning.
Private investors can back a vision and wait years for results,” Green wrote. “Public markets rarely offer that luxury.”

Investors sold stocks, bonds, bitcoin and gold Friday after strong jobs data raised odds for Federal Reserve interest rate hikes, and Wall Street wrestled with weakness in AI stocks.
The S&P 500 fell 2.64%, its worst day since October. The index fell into the red for the week and snapped a nine-week winning streak. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite fell 4.18%, its worst day since April 2025. The Dow, which has less exposure to tech, fell 695 points, or 1.35%, its worst day in about three months.
Volatility in markets picked up this week as investors took profits from recent stock surges and digested shifts in expectations for Fed interest rates. Wall Street’s fear gauge, the VIX, surged 40% and hit its highest level in two months.
The economy added 172,000 jobs in May, smashing expectations, according to data released Friday from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The strong job gains come after recent data showed inflation was heating up because of the oil spike from the war with Iran.
A strong labor market could shift the Fed’s focus to prioritizing inflation, raising the odds of an interest-rate hike later this year. Traders expect a 43% chance the Fed hikes its benchmark lending rate in December, up from 26% a month ago, according to CME FedWatch
In the near term the data confirms that Fed easing is off the table this year, and markets continue to worry that the next move could be a hike,” James McCann, senior economist for investment strategy at Edward Jones, said in a note.
proxy for market sentiment, dipped into “fear,” a swift change from recent weeks. The F&G Index had been in “greed” since April 15, when the S&P 500 hit its first record high during the war with Iran.
Oil prices were lower Friday: Brent crude futures fell about 2% to just above $93 per barrel
Treasury yields have traded in lock-step with oil prices in recent weeks, rising on nerves about inflation when oil rises – and then falling when oil falls. But that shifted Friday.
Treasury yields jumped higher despite the fall in oil prices, signaling that traders are focusing on the strong jobs data and how the labor market might be stabilizing, which could heighten the Fed’s focus on inflation.
Markets have spent months searching for a reason for the Federal Reserve to cut rates. Today’s jobs report gave policymakers a reason not to do so,” Nigel Green, CEO at deVere Group, said in a note.
One report does not make policy, but a report of this magnitude changes probabilities,” Green said. “And markets have recognized that immediately.”

One of the biggest mysteries of the global economy is why the oil market has remained so calm during one of the greatest supply shocks in history.
The Strait of Hormuz has been paralyzed by three months of war — a nightmare scenario that few thought was possible before the war with Iran started. Visible traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remains sparse, estimated at just 15% of pre-war levels, according to JPMorgan.
One theory is that a surprisingly large amount of crude is escaping the double blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, helping the global energy system absorb the historic shock. Tankers carrying these so-called “clandestine flows” may be dodging the blockade by turning off transponders to avoid detection, experts told CNN.
JPMorgan estimated that clandestine flows amounted to about 2.1 million barrels per day over the final two weeks of May. That would represent a small but notable chunk of the 15.6 million barrels that flowed through the Strait of Hormuz per day before the war.
Despite the ongoing naval blockade and the steep decline in commercial traffic, surprising volumes of crude and petroleum products still appear to be transiting the Strait,” Natasha Kaneva, JPMorgan’s head of global commodities strategy, wrote in a client note last week.
Taken together, these adjustments help explain why prices near $100 are not signaling that the disruption is small,” Kaneva wrote. “Rather, they are signaling that the market has found ways — albeit costly ones — to absorb it.”
Some oil veterans worry the market, lulled by these workarounds, is underestimating the real-world impact.
Commercial oil stockpiles have declined sharply since the war started. America’s emergency pile of crude, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, is rapidly heading toward the lowest level since the early 1980s.
Things are going to get worse,” said Stuart of Piper Sandler.
If that forecast is right, it implies gas prices will surge above $5 a gallon this summer, compared with around $4.20 today.
Stuart is forecasting Brent will average $130 a barrel in July and August.
Stuart suspects higher oil prices will need to rise quickly to incentivize further emergency oil releases and to encourage the world to consume less.
You’ll need to persuade people. That’s far easier to do when prices are high,” he said.

As President Donald Trump searches for a way to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and curtail Iran’s nuclear ambitions, Washington and Tehran appear to be engaged in a standard negotiation.
Washington tends to view negotiations with Iran through the lens of power. Tehran views them through the lens of possession.
Washington aims to force Iran to succumb to demands through economic pressure and sanctions. Tehran aims to force the US to succumb after acquiring something valuable and refusing to give it back.
Twice over the last decade, I was involved in protracted negotiations with Iran for the release of American hostages held in Tehran’s notorious Evin Prison.
Hostage negotiations collapse power advantages. Iran understands this. It’s why Tehran, since the 1979 revolution, has repeatedly used hostages as bargaining chips with the US.
As a diplomat representing the most powerful country in the world, there was nothing in my hand to overcome the imbalance at the table. My counterparts possessed something we wanted (people), and they would hold onto it until we were prepared to pay a sufficient price.
Short of a hostage rescue operation, there was nothing Washington could do outside of paying an agreed price.
Time favored the Iranians. They felt little urgency. Their strategy was to wait as hostages suffered and pressure mounted on Washington to secure their freedom.
Seek to outlast the macro pressure and rising gasoline prices as economic pain compounds inside Tehran to some distant and uncertain breaking point.
Pay the up-front cost with billions to Iran in exchange for a return to status quo before the war — a humiliating retreat for Trump given the stated objectives at the outset.
Seek to control the strait militarily and renew major operations inside Iran, with risk that Tehran then seeks to expand the war to other fronts.
This is the dilemma of negotiating with a party that possesses what you want back.
Unless and until the leverage changes, Iran will not surrender it cheaply — and talks will remain as today: deadlocked.

The Trump administration is making a new bid to prove a core assumption the Iran war so far suggests is flawed: that punishing strikes from a far superior US military force will force Tehran to capitulate.
President Donald Trump ordered new attacks on multiple Iranian targets on Wednesday, hours after accusing the Islamic Republic of “tapping us along” and not making a deal. “They keep playing us for suckers,” he said.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth explained that Washington was “clearly signaling” to Iran’s leaders and hoped to “enhance” its diplomatic position. “If we need to negotiate with bombs, we will negotiate with bombs,” he said.
The full extent of the target list and damage from the new air strikes was not immediately clear. US Central Command said in a statement that American forces fired precision munitions at Iranian military surveillance capabilities, communication systems and air defense assets.
Analysts will assess in coming days whether the attacks, some in southern Iran and apparently meant to loosen Tehran’s grip on the Strait of Hormuz, will narrow Iran’s options and shift its negotiating stance.
Sometimes in warfare, adjustments in strategy and strikes that reach a critical mass can change outcomes. But the risk is that this new offensive may simply prolong a pattern that has confounded Trump. While US forces repeatedly chalk up tactical wins, military options are yet to secure an overall strategic triumph.
Evidence of the last three months suggests that Washington only instills greater stubbornness among Iran’s leaders when it intensifies military pressure and reinforces a belief in Tehran that Trump can’t be trusted on any eventual deal.
No lasting agreement can be achieved through threats, intimidation or the use of force,” Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations Amir Saeid Iravani said Wednesday, according to Iran’s official Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA).
If the new round of attacks doesn’t work, there’s sure to be a renewed focus on Trump’s return to coercion. One answer is his lifelong stance that each showdown has only a winner and a loser. His instinct that bringing down the hammer may force Iran to fold, meanwhile, is right out of the real estate magnate’s playbook — even if such an approach is yet to yield big wins for his diplomacy.
The president’s aggression infuses his administration’s worldview. “You can see when someone’s trying to tap, tap, tap on a deal,” Hegseth said. “Instead they’re going to have tap, tap, tap, bombs dropping on key facilities in Iran from the United States of America.
But if the new air strikes don’t force Tehran to concede, Trump will again be asked why he’s so wedded to an approach that keeps failing.

this week were some of its most audacious attempts yet to redefine the boundaries of a confrontation that for decades has largely been fought through proxies, covert operations and carefully calibrated retaliation.
By targeting Israel in response to attacks in Lebanon, Tehran appeared to be signaling that its red lines no longer stop at its own borders – and that its leaders are ready to take greater risks.
Since the April 8 US-Iran ceasefire, Tehran has repeatedly accused Israel and the United States of eroding the truce through military action. The US has carried out strikes on Iranian targets even as indirect negotiations continued. Israel, meanwhile, has launched nearly 3,500 strikes in Lebanon, according to the country’s prime minister, including in the capital Beirut, despite restrictions
Iran responded with a series of calibrated retaliatory strikes against US and Gulf targets, while warning that if diplomacy failed it was prepared to resume the war and expand it beyond the Persian Gulf, potentially threatening shipping routes stretching from the Indian Ocean to the Red Sea and the Mediterranean.
Overnight Tuesday into Wednesday there were renewed exchanges of fire between the US and Iran following the downing of a US Army helicopter earlier in the week, underscoring the ongoing precariousness across the region.
This week’s strikes on Israel, however, appeared to mark a further step. Tehran signaled that Israeli military action against its regional allies could also trigger a direct Iranian response. The objective was to break the diplomatic deadlock in talks to reach an interim peace agreement and support Hezbollah.
Baghaei, the Iranian foreign ministry spokesman, said Washington “bears responsibility” for Israel’s actions and warned that they would “inevitably” affect the diplomatic process. An Israeli military official, meanwhile, stressed that US forces played no role in the attacks on Iran, though they did assist in intercepting incoming Iranian missiles.
Iran may have succeeded in forcing Washington to make a choice between supporting Israel’s military freedom of action and preserving a diplomatic track with Tehran.
Trump’s pressure on Netanyahu has “added another chit to the pot” for Iran, said Miller, referring to Tehran’s new leverage. “Which will be the creation of a new norm.

Through an aggressive suite of structural reforms, the state is rolling out targeted overhauls spanning industrial licensing, tax automation, entrepreneurial incentives, and green energy deployment
For decades, navigating the regulatory labyrinth of setting up and operating a business has been a premier grievance within Bangladesh's commercial ecosystem.
Entrepreneurs seeking to establish industrial plants, expand operations, or deploy fresh capital have routinely run into a wall of multi-agency licensing requirements, opaque tax structures, and protracted administrative delays.
This cumbersome framework inflated the "hidden costs" of doing business, catalyzed systemic operational uncertainties, and consistently bottlenecked the nation’s investment potential.
Innovative technology platforms and startups will qualify for a 9-year corporate tax holiday, with additional tax incentives provided to companies that set up manufacturing bases outside Dhaka and Chattogram.
To safeguard national energy security and reduce dependence on expensive imported fossil fuels, the budget introduces substantial fiscal exemptions for green tech.
Customs duties on solar panels, inverters, and specialized industrial batteries will be dramatically reduced, backed by corporate tax exemptions on solar power generation.
Renewable energy infrastructure investments will enjoy guaranteed tax concessions extending until 2035.
Import tariffs on electric vehicles will be slashed, alongside tax breaks for entities setting up public EV-charging networks.
To release billions in corporate capital currently tied up in gridlocked tax litigation, the budget institutes strict, statutory timelines for resolving tax disputes across Appeals, Tribunals, the High Court, and Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanisms.
Forcing swift and time-bound legal conclusions protects corporate cash lines while ensuring a predictable revenue stream for the state.

Alongside ambitious domestic revenue targets, state planners are relying heavily on both external and internal borrowing to plug the fiscal deficit
The proposed national budget of approximately Tk938,000 crore for the upcoming FY27 brings a mix of high macroeconomic expectations and multi-layered structural challenges.
To implement a fiscal blueprint of this magnitude, the government must mobilize massive financial resources.
Alongside ambitious domestic revenue targets, state planners are relying heavily on both external and internal borrowing to plug the fiscal deficit.
Specifically, the government’s plan to borrow a net Tk112,000 crore directly from the domestic banking sector has triggered fresh anxieties among macroeconomists and policy analysts.
According to projections from the Finance Division, the overall budget deficit for the upcoming fiscal year will reach approximately Tk243,000 crore, representing roughly 3.6% of the country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
Any resulting shortfall in external aid historically shifts the burden straight back onto domestic commercial banks.
The implementation of the 9th pay scale will channel substantial liquidity directly to public sector employees, likely driving up consumer demand and household consumption.
While Finance Division officials believe this demand shift will stimulate domestic economic activity, economists warn that boosting consumption without a corresponding increase in production or supply lines risks fueling inflation.
Given that the central bank has spent months enforcing tight monetary controls to cool the economy, this sudden liquidity injection could complicate efforts to achieve price stability.

Having a TIN may be made mandatory not only for opening new accounts, but also for keeping existing bank accounts active
The government has taken the initiative to make Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) mandatory for opening and operating bank accounts in order to expand the tax net and increase transparency in financial transactions.
Having a TIN may be made mandatory not only for opening new accounts, but also for keeping existing bank accounts active.
Sources concerned at the National Board of Revenue (NBR) said that the issue of exempting students, government pensioners and individuals and organizations exempted from tax through the gazette is under consideration.
Finance Minister Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury may present a proposal in this regard in the upcoming budget for FY27.
Although tax is deducted at source at a relatively high rate on interest on bank deposits without TIN, TIN was not mandatory for opening bank accounts until now.
Tax administration officials believe that linking TIN with bank accounts will increase monitoring of financial transactions and reduce the scope for tax evasion. At the same time, it will be easier to increase the number of taxpayers.
In addition, there are plans to establish online connections with the databases of various government and private organizations, including National Identity Cards (NID), utility service providers, sub-registry offices
This may lead to small entrepreneurs moving out of the formal banking system, increasing dependence on cash transactions and negatively affecting bank deposit growth and liquidity.
He said that instead of imposing strict obligations, the government should focus on gradually expanding the cashless transaction system, creating opportunities for displaying bank account information digitally in tax returns, and strengthening coordination between the tax and banking systems.

RAccording to Finance Ministry officials, the primary goal of these selective tax hikes is not merely to boost short-term revenue collection, but to stimulate domestic production capabilities during a period of foreign exchange volatility
According to internal sources within the National Board of Revenue (NBR), the underlying philosophy of the upcoming tax policy is "production over imports."
The strategy aims to reduce pressure on foreign exchange reserves by discouraging non-essential imports, while simultaneously helping local industries survive international competition.
To achieve this, the state has finalized plans to increase customs tariffs, value-added taxes (VAT), and supplementary duties on specific foreign goods
To drive self-reliance in the domestic agricultural and fisheries sectors, the government is building tariff walls to shield local farmers from uneven foreign competition

Govt deploying fiscal packages explicitly structured to fast-track commercial solar power generation, localize the advanced battery manufacturing industry, and expand electric transport networks
In a major strategic shift designed to combat global climate change risks, bolster national energy security, and phase out expensive fossil fuel dependencies, the government is preparing a massive slate of tax exemptions and fiscal incentives for the renewable energy and electric vehicle (EV) sectors in the upcoming FY27 national budget.
State planners are deploying targeted fiscal packages explicitly structured to fast-track commercial solar power generation, localize the advanced battery manufacturing industry, and expand electric transport networks.
According to internal sources from the Ministry of Finance, the proposed budget is highly likely to feature a 0% corporate income tax rate on commercial solar power production.
To incentivize green adoption on the demand side, a secondary proposal to offer up to a 5% rebate on retail electricity bills for consumers utilizing residential solar energy installations is also under serious active consideration.
Energy analysts view this policy overhaul as a critical turning point for the country’s power infrastructure.
Decades of heavy reliance on imported Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), coal, and furnace oil have continuous placed severe structural pressure on the central foreign exchange reserves.
To reduce initial setup costs for renewable infrastructure and storage, the upcoming budget plans to fully waive all import duties and structural taxes on raw input materials required to manufacture Lithium-Ion batteries, Sodium-Ion batteries, and specialized Lithium-Ion battery packs until 2030.
This represents a profound fiscal imbalance. National energy taxation should be determined based on lifecycles and real environmental impacts, rather than focusing entirely on standard supply-chain categories

Bitcoin's growing divergence from tech stocks raises concerns as AI spending surges, says Quinn Thompson.
Thompson's broader concern extends beyond crypto and believes a wave of blockbuster IPOs (SpaceX, Anthropic and OpenAI) could absorb trillions of dollars in investor capital, creating a liquidity drain.
One of the clearest signs for Thompson is the Magnificent Seven's underperformance relative to the broader Nasdaq. Historically, healthy bull markets are characterized by leaders leading. Today, however, many of the index's gains are being driven by semiconductor and AI supply chain names rather than the hyperscalers that sparked the initial rally.
The challenge for those hyperscalers is growing, Thompson says. Massive AI-related capital expenditure commitments pressure free cash flow, increasing debt levels, and reducing share buybacks.
Yet cutting spending could undermine the semiconductor and AI infrastructure trade that has supported the broader technology complex.
Thompson concludes that rising IPO supply is set to compete for capital and investor attention, while He sees a difficult path forward for both AI leaders and the wider market.

Net assets of U.S.-listed spot ETFs have fallen to levels last seen just after Trump won the election in early November 2024.
This is not to say the ETFs didn't grow in the 19-month period. Hopes that Trump would deliver on his campaign promise of friendlier crypto regulation helped push bitcoin higher, along with ETF assets. Total net assets crossed $90 billion within a week of this election win and went on to hit a record high of $169.54 billion in October 2025.
But since then, these post-election gains have been erased even though the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), under the Trump administration, dropped several high-profile enforcement actions. The U.S. has established a strategic bitcoin reserve and, further, the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, which seeks to establish jurisdictional boundaries between the SEC and CFTC and give the industry the legal heft, is advancing in Washington.
In other words, the regulatory environment has never been more favorable, yet investors' response has been to leave, pulling the net assets lower.
These ETFs have registered a net outflow of over $5 billion in four weeks. Cumulative net inflows since inception, which peaked at $62.77 billion in October 2025 when bitcoin was at its all-time high, have since declined by nearly $9 billion to $53.77 billion, the lowest since August last year.
ETF outflows reflected short-term pressure as inflation drives the Fed hawkish, while on-chain supply tightening remains intact," Binance Research said in a report shared with CoinDesk.
Market analyst and former co-founder of 21Shares, Ophelia Snyder, said AI and other trending corners of the financial market are draining capital from crypto.
You have ETF outflows as investors are increasingly distracted by other narratives competing for attention and capital, whether that's AI, SpaceX, or other high-profile growth stories. You have ongoing market jitters around geopolitics, the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. jobs data, inflation, and broader macroeconomic uncertainty," she said in an email.

The relief rally that lifted crypto off last week's lows is unwinding alongside tech stocks and gold, with traders bracing for a US inflation print and a Warsh Fed that may stay hawkish.
Ether (ETH) fell 3.4% to $1,625, and solana (SOL) dropped 4.1% to $64.24, according to CoinDesk data. XRP (XRP) lost 4.3% to
each slid less than 3%. Hyperliquid's HYPE was the worst of the majors again, down 10.2% on the day and 21.3% on the week to $55.52, the highest-beta name in the group as risk came off.
Gold and bitcoin rarely fall in lockstep, as both are stores of value that pay no yield, so both lose their appeal when traders bet on higher rates, and that is what Wednesday's U.S. inflation report could force.
South Korea's Kospi, the market most exposed to the artificial-intelligence trade through its chipmakers, tumbled 6.3%, leading a 2.5% drop in MSCI's broad Asia-Pacific equity gauge and its fourth loss in five days. Nasdaq 100 futures pointed 0.8% lower after a volatile Wall Street session. Brent crude traded near $92 a barrel as renewed U.S. strikes on Iran kept a bid under oil, and the 10-year Treasury yield rose to 4.54%.
A hot reading would harden the case for new Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh to keep rates higher for longer, draining liquidity from the assets that ran hardest on cheap money.
The bounce that ran into Monday was a short squeeze, not fresh buying, as over $500 million in bearish bets were liquidated, the highest such figure since April.
Buyers have stepped in after the move lower, but spot demand has yet to return in a meaningful way," said Diana Pires, chief business officer at sFOX, pointing to a run of U.S. spot bitcoin ETF outflows that has kept institutional money cautious. When new demand isn't broad enough to cover the selling, she said, rallies struggle to hold.
Watch whether bitcoin can hold a bid through the inflation print or keeps trading tick-for-tick with the Nasdaq. If gold steadies and bitcoin keeps falling, the case for it as a macro hedge thins further.

Anthropic released Claude Fable 5 on Tuesday, its most capable public model running on Mythos, as it pursues a fall listing it has already filed for confidentially alongside OpenAI, which filed Monday, and SpaceX.
Mythos is Anthropic’s most advanced tier of artificial intelligence models, and Fable is the first publicly released version of this powerful underlying architecture but it comes with strict built-in safety filters.
Bitcoin has spent the past week trading as the high-beta arm of the Nasdaq, sliding with chipmakers and Asian tech as the AI trade unwound. An Anthropic listing, after its $65 billion round at a $965 billion valuation, would hand index funds and retail traders a single AI-lab stock to pile into. Crypto already moves with the AI trade, and giving that trade its own ticker only tightens its grip.
AI-linked tokens caught a modest bid on Fable's launch while bitcoin barely moved, because model releases are narrative for the sector's small caps while the majors now trade on what the AI trade does to risk appetite, not on the models themselves.

The compromised laptop held enough multisig keys to take over the project's bridges on two chains, a basic security failure for a startup backed by Pantera and Jump Crypto.
Those bridges ran through multisignature wallets, which require a number of separate keys to approve any change. A multisignature wallet is supposed to spread keys across different people and devices so that no single machine can move funds.
In this case, all the keys were stored on a single device, meaning a compromise allowed the exploier to cross the approval threshold on both chains, Humanity said.
The attacker obtained three of the six keys controlling the bridge's admin account on Ethereum, enough to seize controls linked to the project's deployment on the network.
The attacker then transferred ownership to their own wallet, swapped the bridge's code for a malicious version and drained about 141 million H in one transaction.
In a Telegram message to CoinDesk, Humanity founder Terence Kwok said the team had set up a multisig wallet across four individuals (as it should have).
Humanity suspects that "some of the keys were accidentally backed up to a compromised device during setup," Kwok said. "We use a licensed custodian for the majority of token treasury, mpc for operations treasury, and for certain contracts multisig keys were set up in one place and then dispersed.
The attacker executed similar steps on BNB Chain with three of five keys. This time, installing code with an unlimited mint function, which allowed the creation of tokens at will, and minted about 200 million new H straight to their wallet.
Humanity has since removed the team page from its website. The project said it has halted deposits and withdrawals on the affected bridges and is working with exchanges and the police to recover funds.
ZachXBT, a prominent onchain investigator, said the key compromise and a separate round of suspicious market-making in the token were not connected.
He also raised questions about how the token traded in the weeks before the breach, ahead of a large scheduled token unlock, as H token prices shot up from 20 cents to 70 cents within two weeks.
The token has clawed back some of the lost ground. After falling as low as about 5 cents during the attack, it recovered to around 20 cents, according to CoinGecko data. It remains well below the roughly pre-breach level of 67 cents.

The Nasdaq tumbled more than 3% at one point on Tuesday, helping to drag bitcoin (BTC) nearly all the way back to $60,000. An afternoon rally, however, narrowed the Nasdaq's decline to just 1%, and bitcoin bounced alongside, trading at $62,000 just after the market close.
Bounce or not, crypto-related stocks were clobbered across the board, with Coinbase (COIN) decining 4.1% and Strategy (MSTR) 8%. A notable outperformer was Galaxy Digital (GLXY), rising 7.1% as investors reassess the company's valuation in light of its rapid data center expansion.
Higher by more than 1% at the open, the Nasdaq has turned decidedly lower just ahead of the noon hour on the East Coast, now down 1.9% and below its close on Friday.
The drop can't be blamed on Middle East tensions as crude oil is at a session low, down 4% to $87.58 per barrel. Gold and silver are also taking part in the quick dive, each dropping more than 2% over roughly the past hour.
With the AI trade leading losses, bitcoin miners turned AI infrastructure players are all sharply lower. Hut 8 (HUT) is down 6.3%, MARA Holdings (MARA) 4.9%, and IREN (IREN) 8%.
If you look at bitcoin vs other assets, from a valuation perspective, it's cheap," says Jim Ferraioli, Schwab's director of crypto research (h/t Eric Balchunas).
Speaking at the Digital Assets Council of Financial Professionals conference, Ferraioli, said investors waiting for a specific catalyst, such as the passage of the Clarity Act, may find it too late.
There is a fundamental mismatch between the growth of money in the economy and the amount of bitcoin available to buy," said Ferraioli. "So what we look for when you want to be long crypto is when you expect an expansion of money and liquidity. The U.S. debt is larger than the US economy, and there’s historically one way govts get out of that situation: monetary inflation."
Crypto prices have returned to familiar territory on Tuesday, headed lower as risk markets across the globe are in rally mode.
Trading at $62,500, bitcoin (BTC) is down 1% over the past 24 hours and lower by nearly 3% from Monday's high.
Shortly before the U.S. market open, Nasdaq 100 futures are higher by 0.9%, tacking on to yesterday's 1.5% gain. WTI crude oil is down 2.15% to $89.34 per barrel as investors continue to price in what might be the end of the Iran conflict.
Possibly dragging on bitcoin on Tuesday was a $36 million exploit of the Humanity Protocol and its H token. Bitcoin maxis, however, might say the opposite — that the Humanity attack (and numerous other incidents against other chains in recent weeks) shows why "there is no second best."
There isn't much expected in the way of macro news on Tuesday, but May U.S. inflation data is on tap for the U.S. on Wednesday. With interest rate traders now convinced the next Fed move will be a rate hike, a downside surprise could make things interesting.
