BlackRock Launches Tokenized Money Market Funds in Europe
THE SO WHAT
BlackRock tokenizing European money market funds is a clear signal that blockchain rails are moving from pilots to core cash products. If you manage treasury or build fintech, start mapping how tokenized shares and 24/7 settlement could change your liquidity, collateral, and integration strategy.

Deep & Emerging TechHuawei’s Top Scientist Warns of Chip Limit Nvidia Will Soon Face
When a leading chip scientist publicly talks about looming physical limits, it’s a reminder that the easy gains from shrinking nodes are finite. For AI-heavy roadmaps, treat compute efficiency—model compression, sparsity, better algorithms—as a first-class strategy, not an afterthought to “buy more GPUs.”
Deep & Emerging TechThe AI boom runs on metal. A two-year-old startup just raised $310m to mine it, autonomously, on US soil.
Critical minerals are becoming the upstream choke point for AI—$310m into autonomous US mining is a bet that supply security will command a premium. If your roadmap assumes cheap, abundant GPUs, you now have to care about copper, permitting, and domestic extraction timelines.
Deep & Emerging TechYellow Card CEO on Funding, Stablecoin’s Global Foothold
Yellow Card leaning on USDC rails and building direct on/off ramps across Africa is another data point that 'stablecoin as cross-border backend' is becoming real infrastructure, not a side experiment. If you move money in or out of frontier markets, you should be mapping where stablecoin liquidity already exists and where it can cut settlement time and FX cost.
Deep & Emerging Tech'Generative AI is already changing what malicious software packages look like and how threat actors are beginning to probe AI-based code systems': Amazon flags North Korean hacker group as being behind the surge in open source supply chain attacks
Generative AI is lowering the cost of iterating malware and probing AI-based code systems, while state-linked actors target open-source supply chains. If you ship software, you need SBOMs, dependency scanning, and AI-aware code review in place now—not after your first poisoned package incident.
