Today's Undercover Line

Today's stories revolve around a core theme: the “decentralization” of global supply chains and data sovereignty is accelerating. Fujitsu's development of a domestic CPU and Meta's self-developed training chips dismantle the hardware dependency on Nvidia; stablecoin payment funding and the sanctioning of the Iranian cryptocurrency exchange highlight the clash between traditional and on-chain settlement systems; Musk's intention to buy “data from dead companies” and the Microsoft executive's criticism of AI scraping as “labor theft” signal a shift in data ownership from ambiguity to clear pricing. The assault on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz has reduced daily shipping volume from 16 ships to 4, violently reminding everyone that the risks to infrastructures in the physical world will ultimately transmit to the pricing of digital assets at every level.
