Bitget CEO Gracy Chen says she suspects North Korean attackers exploited a backend system used to process wallet transactions to drain $387M from the platform
THE SO WHAT
A $387M drain via a wallet-processing backend is a reminder that the real crypto risk surface is orchestration logic, not just keys and cold storage. If you touch digital assets, threat-model every internal automation path as if a state actor is probing it daily.

Deep & Emerging TechGoogle’s India AI hub cleared for 2.51GW, not 1GW, the Guardian reports
A single AI campus in Andhra Pradesh cleared for 2.51 GW—over 2.5x the initially announced 1 GW—confirms hyperscale AI is now a grid-scale power planning problem, per [The Next Web](https://thenextweb.com/news/google-india-ai-datacentre-andhra-pradesh-land). If AI is material to your roadmap, treat power, water, and local politics as first-class dependencies alongside GPU supply.
Deep & Emerging TechExxon Signs Shale Deal With Azerbaijan for Middle Kura Basin
Exxon taking US-style fracking to Azerbaijan underlines how shale expertise is becoming an exportable capability, not just a domestic advantage. Energy-intensive compute and industrial players should be tracking where unconventional supply like this comes online — it shapes long-term power price assumptions.
Deep & Emerging TechHow Syracuse's Semiconductor Gamble May Help Save the Rust Belt
Micron’s mega-fab in Syracuse shows how a single advanced node plant can become the economic anchor for an entire region. If you depend on US-based chips, track where fabs land — your future suppliers, talent pools, and logistics constraints will cluster around these sites.
Deep & Emerging TechMANA Reveals Atomic-Scale Rails for Guiding Superconducting Vortices
Atomic‑scale control of superconducting vortices is the kind of materials science that eventually shows up as higher‑performance quantum or cryogenic hardware. For most operators this is background noise, but if you’re betting on quantum or ultra‑low‑power compute, it’s another data point that the hardware stack is still in flux.
