Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang toured Beijing's street food scene, sampling sugar-blown treats, noodles, and mung bean drinks while taking selfies with locals.
The appearance marks a rare public walkabout for a CEO of Huang's stature — his net worth exceeds $100 billion. The hands-on tour through Beijing's culinary landscape comes as Nvidia navigates complex U.S.-China tech relations and seeks to maintain business ties in one of its key markets.
Huang's informal approach contrasts sharply with typical executive visits to China, which usually involve closed-door meetings and carefully staged corporate events.

🚨 India raised fuel prices by 3% overnight — the first increase in four years.
The hike follows the closure of the Strait of Hormuz amid the Iran conflict. Roughly half of India's oil imports pass through that critical waterway.
1.4 billion Indians now face higher costs due to a war thousands of miles away.

Drake is set to make Billboard history tonight at midnight with the simultaneous release of three albums: ICEMAN, MAID OF HONOUR, and HABIBTI.
The Canadian rapper will become the first artist to have three albums competing against each other on the Billboard Top 100 in the same week. Ahead of the triple release, Drake posted a video of himself burning down a bot farm.
ICEMAN features 18 tracks including collaborations with Future, Molly Santana, and 21 Savage. MAID OF HONOUR includes 14 tracks with features from Sexyy Red, Central Cee, and Popcaan. HABIBTI rounds out the trio with 11 tracks, featuring Sexyy Red, Loe Shimmy, and PartyNextDoor.
The unprecedented release strategy sets up a unique chart battle where Drake will effectively be competing against himself for the top positions.

Ripple SVP of Stablecoins Jack McDonald discusses RLUSD and the strategic role of stablecoins in financial infrastructure in a new Deep Dive Podcast episode. The conversation covers the proposed CLARITY Act and its potential impact on digital dollar regulation in the United States. The episode explores where the payments industry is heading as stablecoins gain traction as core financial tools.
The Clarity Act passed the Senate Banking Committee 15-9, marking a major legislative milestone for cryptocurrency regulation in the United States.
The bill establishes clear regulatory frameworks for digital assets, defining jurisdictional boundaries between federal agencies, token classification standards, and consumer protection measures.
This represents the legislation's most significant Senate hurdle to date. The bill must still pass the full Senate, clear the House of Representatives, and receive presidential signature to become law.
If enacted, the Clarity Act would provide the first comprehensive federal regulatory structure for the crypto industry in the U.S.

The U.S. Senate Banking Committee is scheduled to vote on a cryptocurrency market structure bill today at 10:30 AM ET. The legislation aims to establish a regulatory framework for digital assets in the United States. If approved by the committee, the bill would advance to the full Senate for consideration.

The Senate votes today on Kevin Warsh's nomination for Federal Reserve Chair, positioning him to control U.S. interest rates and influence global financial markets.
Warsh previously served on the Fed Board of Governors during the 2008 financial crisis. He now inherits an economy with 3.8% inflation and wholesale prices up 6%, with markets already anticipating rate hikes.
Jerome Powell's term as Fed Chair ends Friday. If confirmed, Warsh takes over immediately amid ongoing inflationary pressures and heightened market sensitivity to monetary policy shifts.

India's NIFTY index extends sharp decline, erasing ₹62 lakh crore in market value since conflict escalated on Feb 28. ₹16 lakh crore vanished in the past four days alone.
The rupee hit a record low of 95.7 against the dollar as foreign institutional investors (FIIs) pull billions from Indian markets.
Meanwhile, U.S. markets diverge sharply: the S&P 500 reached a new all-time high of 7,398.
Analysts warn the wealth destruction is hitting India's middle class hard, with potential political and economic fallout ahead.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has joined President Trump's delegation to China as a last-minute addition. Huang was spotted boarding Air Force One during a stopover in Alaska. The tech executive's presence on the high-stakes diplomatic trip signals potential discussions around U.S.-China technology relations and semiconductor trade.
A developer demonstrated an autonomous machine-to-machine payment using cryptocurrency, with $0.01 in USDC settling in 4 seconds without human intervention or traditional banking infrastructure.
The transaction highlights the emerging "agentic economy" where AI agents conduct financial operations independently. Industry observers point to three structural shifts underway:
• APIs evolving into autonomous marketplaces
• Stablecoins becoming core payment infrastructure
• Compliance frameworks requiring overhaul as non-human entities become customers
The development underscores the operational reality of crypto-based autonomous transactions, moving beyond theoretical debates about utility. The infrastructure for machine-driven commerce is being deployed now, with competitive positioning dependent on who controls the payment rails.

Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark suggests AI systems could begin contributing to their own improvement by around 2028—not as independent thinkers, but as embedded tools in research and development.
The shift would tighten the feedback loop. Instead of long development cycles, AI could help design experiments, test model variations at scale, and identify training weaknesses in real time. Thousands of variations tested in parallel. Continuous refinement rather than distinct stages.
This is the core of an "intelligence explosion"—not a single dramatic event, but a process where improving intelligence accelerates because intelligence itself drives the process.
In practice: systems running overnight experiments, narrowing down top performers before engineers review results. AI catching failing training methods early, saving entire development cycles.
Progress stops moving at a human pace. Each generation helps build the next. The gap between versions begins to shrink.
