The growing rift between the United States and Israel hit new heights this week, with articles published in major Israeli publications accusing President Donald Trump of abandoning Israel to its greatest enemy following his interim deal with Iran.
Analysts described a sense of betrayal as public and political outrage over the terms of the agreement, which details the broad terms for ending the joint US-Israeli war on Iran, dominated headlines.
In one particularly blistering attack, an op-ed titled “You could have been the greatest president of all, but you failed” accused Trump of having signed a “surrender agreement with a murderous and cruel terror regime
Published in one of the country’s leading newspapers, Israel Hayom, which is owned by influential Trump mega-donor Miriam Adelson, the piece pulled few punches
Styled as a letter to Trump, it went further than even some of Israel’s more extreme politicians in voicing criticism of the pact, accusing the US president of having turned the hourglass over to a new war and of having brought about the “humiliation” of his country
Hagai Ram, a professor at Ben Gurion University and author of the book Iranophobia: The Logic of an Israeli Obsession, said Trump was until recently “the most popular figure in Israel” – but he had now been turned “into a villain”
The criticism of Israel coming from US leaders hasn’t arisen because they’ve suddenly gained any great insight, it’s because the facts have become unavoidable,” he said. “Everything they’re saying is correct. These are truth bombs. Israel did pull them into a war and Netanyahu did manipulate Trump.
Matters only appear to be growing more grave. On Saturday, Israel’s continued attacks on Lebanon led to Iran once more closing the Strait of Hormuz, the economic gateway where closure previously was credited by many with bringing Trump to the negotiating table
“Two things are going on here, and each one is a mirror of the other,” said Alon Pinkas, a former Israeli ambassador and consul general in New York
“On the one hand, you have all the Trump cultists desperately searching for someone external to blame for luring their great leader into such an intractable war, and seizing upon Netanyahu.
On the other hand, you have all the Netanyahu followers. They’re also faced with a war in Lebanon they can’t get out of and a US agreement with what they’re being told again and again is a far more powerful Iran than that which agreed to a better deal under Obama,” added Pinkas.
“Ultimately, it’s a bad agreement because it was a bad war,” he continued. “One always follows the other

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.

A new design proposed by venture fund Paradigm would let holders privately timestamp proof that they control vulnerable keys before quantum computers arrive, creating a possible rescue path if Bitcoin ever sunsets old addresses.
The obvious defense is a soft fork (or an upgrade to existing network rules) that eventually stops allowing spends from those legacy address types, forcing holders to move into quantum-safe formats before attackers can derive their private keys.
Prominent developer Jameson Lopp and five other developers proposed exactly that in mid-April through BIP-361, which would phase out quantum-vulnerable addresses on a five-year timeline and freeze any coins that fail to migrate.
That proposal created a different problem, however. Satoshi, and every other long-dormant holder, would have to wake up publicly or risk losing access to their assets.
Dan Robinson, a general partner at Paradigm, published a proposal Friday for a way around that trade-off that revolves around the concept of Provable Address-Control Timestamps, or PACTs.
The core idea is not to move coins but timestamp proof of ownership at a specific date and reveal nothing to the public until the owners of those wallets actually need to spend.
A holder generates a random salt, which is a piece of secret data used to make a cryptographic commitment unique and unguessable, and uses BIP-322, a standard for signing messages from a Bitcoin address without spending from it, to produce a proof of ownership.
The salt and proof are bundled together into an onchain commitment and timestamp it through OpenTimestamps, a free service that anchors data onto the Bitcoin blockchain through a single batched transaction. The salt, proof, and timestamp files stay private.
If Bitcoin later activates a soft fork that freezes quantum-vulnerable coins, the protocol could include a rescue path that accepts a STARK proof, a type of zero-knowledge proof that remains secure against quantum computers, showing the holder created their commitment before quantum hardware existed.
The holder submits that proof when they want to spend, and the network releases the coins. The redemption reveals nothing about which address, which amount, or even when the original timestamp was created.
These PACTs also address a specific gap in BIP-361 by including a rescue path for wallets derived through BIP-32, the deterministic key generation standard introduced in 2012. Pre-2012 wallets, including most of Satoshi's known addresses, do not use BIP-32 and cannot be rescued through that path.
As such, Robinson stated that the PACTs require Bitcoin to eventually adopt a STARK verification protocol, which would itself need a separate soft fork with broad community consensus.
The verification infrastructure does not exist in Bitcoin currently and would need what Robinson calls "substantial new plumbing," such as multisig wallets, complex scripts, and hardware wallet support that would all need careful standardization.
That last constraint is the one PACTs cannot work around.
The protocol only protects Satoshi if Satoshi himself, or whoever currently controls those keys, makes the commitment. If Satoshi is genuinely gone, no PACT can be retroactively created. The coins remain exposed to whichever scenario plays out first, quantum theft or community freeze.
What PACTs do offer is a way to make the BIP-361 debate less binary. The current freeze proposal forces a choice between protecting against quantum theft and respecting dormant property rights.
Whether Satoshi will use it is the question PACTs cannot answer.

June E-mini S&P 500 Index futures are pushing higher Friday morning and two things are driving it. Intel soared 24% in premarket after a blowout earnings report and word out of Pakistan suggests U.S. and Iran negotiations may be back on. That combination gave buyers a reason to show up after a week that was shaping up as a losing one for the major averages. Keep reading for the key levels and what traders need to watch into the close.
June E-mini S&P 500 Index futures are edging higher shortly before the cash market opening on Friday. The overnight trade has been volatile, producing two-sided trading action
At 13:04 GMT, it’s trading $7158.00, up $14.50 or +0.20%.
The index hit a record high at 7189.50 early in the session. Traders are going to have to take out this level to resume the uptrend. From the top down, the key levels to watch today are Thursday’s close at 7143.50, last week’s close at 7161.50 and the minor swing bottom at 7079.25
A close below 7161.50 will produce a weekly closing price reversal top. If confirmed, this could trigger the start of a 2 to 3 week correction. Finishing below 7143.50 will form a daily closing price reversal top. If confirmed, this could trigger the start of a 2 to 3 day correction. But the combination of the daily and weekly reversal could send a strong signal that momentum is shifting lower
A trade through 7079.25 will change the minor trend to down and confirm the shift in momentum. This could lead to a steep break into the short-term retracement zone at 7079.25
Longer-term targets are the 50-day moving average at 6833.36, the 200-day moving average at 6826.00 and the retracement zone at 6771.50 to 6672.75.
A Pakistani government official told reporters that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi is expected in Islamabad Friday evening and that U.S.-Iran negotiations are likely to follow. Oil pulled back on the news and futures pushed higher. That’s the trade in one sentence. Any credible signal that talks are resuming takes risk premium out of energy prices and gives equities room to breathe.
Trump also announced Thursday that Israel and Lebanon agreed to extend their ceasefire by three weeks. The Strait of Hormuz situation remains active with both the U.S. and Iran seizing commercial ships this week. The Middle East is still capable of moving this market on any headline and Friday proved it again.
Intel jumped 24% in premarket after beating earnings estimates and issuing strong guidance. That’s the kind of move that pulls the whole semiconductor space higher and the sector needed it. The iShares Semiconductor ETF posted its 17th straight positive session Thursday and is on pace for a 6% weekly gain. The rally in chips is the one thing holding this market together right now. Everything else is flat to lower on the week with the S&P 500 and Dow both down about 0.3% and the Nasdaq off 0.1%
The weekly close is the number that matters most today. A finish below 7161.50 puts a weekly closing price reversal top on the chart and that’s a signal traders around the world will notice over the weekend. Intel and the Iran talk headlines bought the bulls some time Friday morning. Whether that holds into the close decides how next week sets up.

Alameda unstakes $16 million worth of Solana's SOL token, according to Arkham.
The latest move follows a familiar pattern: unstake coins and route them to addresses used to reimburse creditors. About a month ago, Alameda did the same, directing funds to the same distribution address. That prior move ultimately raised expectations that the funds were part of an ongoing creditor repayment process tied to the firm’s restructuring.
While there has been no formal confirmation that this specific tranche will be distributed imminently, the repetition of the pattern suggests continuity in the process rather than an isolated movement.
SOL, the native token of programmable blockchain Solana, has a market capitalization of $47.26 billion, which makes it the seventh-largest digital asset in the world. As of writing, SOL traded near $82, largely unchanged on a 24-hour basis, but down significantly from its all-time high of $293 hit in January last year.
Alameda, founded by Sam Bankman-Fried in 2017, began as a quantitative trading shop focused on arbitrage opportunities in digital assets, exploiting price differences across exchanges and markets.
At its peak, Alameda was a major liquidity provider across crypto markets and was deeply embedded in the ecosystem, trading billions in volume and operating across spot, derivatives, and structured products.
Alameda still holds about 3.5 million SOL worth $294.10 million, per Arkham.

WASHINGTON, April 23 (Reuters) - The National Transportation Safety Board said Thursday a key runway safety system failed to ​activate before a March 22 fatal collision between an Air Canada Express ‌jet and a fire truck that killed two pilots.
The NTSB also said in its preliminary report that red runway entrance lights that indicate when it is not safe to cross a runway were ​on until about three seconds before the time of the collision. The ​NTSB said the system is designed to turn the lights off ⁠about 2 to 3 seconds before the airplane reaches each intersection.
The Express CRJ-900 ​regional jet touched down roughly 2 seconds before the collision and was at 104 ​mph at the time of the crash.
The NTSB is leading the investigation into the fatal collision of the CRJ-900 jet operated by Air Canada's regional partner Jazz Aviation. The crash sent 39 ​of the 76 passengers and crew to hospital, including six with serious injuries.
The ​airport's ground surveillance system did not generate an alert warning of the proximity of vehicles to the ‌runway ⁠and the fire truck that collided with the jet lacked a transponder that would have transmitted its location to air traffic control.
The turret operator in the truck involved in the collision recalled hearing the words "stop stop stop" (on the tower frequency) radio, ​but he did not ​know who that ⁠transmission was intended for and then heard "Truck 1 stop stop stop" and realized it was for their vehicle and subsequently ​noticed that they had entered the runway, the NTSB said.
The ​NTSB said ⁠the local controller who was handling the Air Canada plane had about 18 years of experience and the ground controller who was also the controller-in-charge had about 19 years ⁠of ​experience, and was responsible handling aircraft that were taxiing.
The ​Federal Aviation Administration has encouraged airports to equip fire trucks with transponders because it makes the vehicles' ​movements easier to track at busy airports.

Asia reportedly drives nearly half of global stablecoin flows, powering cross-border trade and institutional liquidity. Yet in the major banks of Singapore, Hong Kong, and Jakarta, reception to stablecoins remains distinctly cold.
While some observers attribute this to a “generational gap” or a lack of technical understanding, Bernardo Bilotta, CEO and co-founder of Stables, argues that the reality is far more calculated. According to Bilotta, the reluctance of Asian banks to embrace stablecoins is not a failure of imagination but a masterclass in institutional self-preservation.
For a commercial bank, the most critical asset on the balance sheet is not cash or property; it is the relationship with the central bank. In many Southeast Asian markets, the regulatory environment for digital assets remains a moving target.
Taking on stablecoin exposure, even just for processing, means taking on reputational risk with the regulator before the rules are fully settled,” Bilotta said. In an environment where guidance can tighten significantly from one quarter to the next with little warning, the risk of a regulatory pivot makes long-term infrastructure investment a gamble most banks are unwilling to take.
Beyond local regulators, Asian banks must answer to a global hierarchy. To facilitate international trade, these institutions rely on correspondent banking relationships with partners in New York and London.
Bilotta points out a harsh reality of the current global financial plumbing: Compliance teams in Western financial hubs are notoriously risk-averse. If a bank in Jakarta or Bangkok begins dabbling in stablecoins, it risks being flagged by its Western partners. The threat of having a correspondent relationship terminated—effectively cutting a bank off from the U.S. dollar or euro markets—is a survival logic that far outweighs the potential profits of stablecoin integration.
Even for banks willing to look past the risk, a new hurdle has emerged: regulatory fragmentation. Across Asia, jurisdictions are taking vastly different paths. Singapore, for instance, has embedded stablecoin rules into its existing Payment Services Act, while Hong Kong recently enacted a standalone Stablecoins Ordinance.
Critics argue these silos hamper growth, as a token compliant in one city may face hurdles just an hour’s flight away. However, Bilotta views this not as a roadblock but as a necessary phase of convergence.
Framing it as purely a problem misses what’s actually happening,” Bilotta said. “Singapore and Hong Kong have different approaches to the same goal: treating stablecoins as regulated payment instruments. The underlying principles—reserve backing, redemption rights, and AML compliance—are converging.”
Until the cost of inaction exceeds the cost of action, the status quo holds,” Bilotta said. The cautious stance of Asian banks isn’t irrational—it is a defensive crouch. However, as the infrastructure layer becomes more robust and local-currency tokens begin to solve the “last-mile” problem, the pressure on these institutions will only grow. The question for Asia’s banking sector is no longer whether they understand the technology but how much longer they can afford to prioritize survival over evolution.

The response to the DeFi recovery fund has quickly extended beyond Aave, and in some cases began with direct outreach.
The exploit, which rippled into rsETH markets and created risk across lending positions on Aave, has prompted what is shaping up to be one of the most coordinated industry responses to a DeFi incident.
There’s a shared priority around supporting users and restoring normal market conditions,” an Aave Labs spokesperson told CoinDesk. “Many of these participants are deeply connected to DeFi, whether through infrastructure, capital, or user access, and have a direct interest in ensuring markets function as expected.”
At the core of the effort is Aave itself. A governance proposal outlines a plan for the DAO to allocate up to 250,000 ETH as part of the recovery. Founder Stani Kulechov has separately indicated he would donate 5,000 ETH personally. Other contributors within Aave’s orbit are also stepping in, including Aave’s Emilio Frangella (500 ETH), BGD Labs’ Ernesto Boado (100 ETH), BGD Labs (250 ETH), and KPK’s Marcelo Ruiz de Orlano (100 ETH).
But the response has quickly extended beyond Aave, and in some cases began with direct outreach.The firm, alongside its founder Joseph Lubin, agreed to commit up to 30,000 ETH in financial support to help advance the recovery and protect users. Sharplink played a strategic advisory role in those discussions, the spokesperson said.
Following the April 18 bridge hack that impacted rsETH, Kulechov reached out to Consensys and other ecosystem participants early to help coordinate a response, according to a Consensys spokesperson.
The firm, alongside its founder Joseph Lubin, agreed to commit up to 30,000 ETH in financial support to help advance the recovery and protect users. Sharplink played a strategic advisory role in those discussions, the spokesperson said.
The Ethereum ecosystem has always been at its best when it moves together,” Lubin said in a statement. “DeFi United is exactly that, a broad, coordinated response to protect users and strengthen the infrastructure we’ve all helped build. Consensys is proud to contribute alongside other stewards in the ecosystem.”
The effort has also drawn smaller contributions from across the community.
Lido has put forward a proposal to allocate up to 2,500 stETH, while EtherFi is discussing a 5,000 ETH plan aimed at supporting users and limiting bad debt across DeFi. Mantle has proposed a 30,000 ETH credit facility loan, adding to a growing pool of backstop liquidity. Compound also put forward a proposal to give up to 3000 ETH to the fund.
The list of participants continues to grow. Entities that have not publicly specified the size of their commitments include Ethena, LayerZero, Frax Finance, and Ink Foundation, alongside Tyro.
These are long-standing Aave relationships across the ecosystem,” the Aave Labs spokesperson added. “Teams like Consensys, Sharplink, and others have been in close contact throughout.
Not all contributions are structured the same way. Some participants are offering grants, others deposits, and several are extending credit lines, highlighting different approaches to balancing support with risk management.
In parallel, Aave Labs has put forward a proposal asking Arbitrum governance to approve the release of roughly 30,765.67 ETH immobilized by the network’s Security Council into the coordinated remediation effort, with the goal of “making affected rsETH holders whole” and restoring rsETH’s backing.
Much of the capital remains subject to governance approval, and several proposals are still under discussion. Even so, the breadth of participation underscores how widely the exploit's impact has been felt across DeFi.
The Ethereum ecosystem has always been at its best when it moves together,” Lubin said. “DeFi United is exactly that: a broad, coordinated response to protect users and strengthen the infrastructure we’ve all helped build.”

BEIJING, April 26 (Reuters) - An American YouTuber is giving foreign visitors a first-hand look at the Chinese high-tech cars many U.S. consumers can only see ​online.
At the Beijing Auto Show, which opened on Friday, 34-year-old Ethan Robertson shepherded more than a dozen people from Australia, ‌New Zealand, the United Arab Emirates and elsewhere through sprawling halls packed with electric SUVs, pickup trucks and futuristic concept cars — offering an up-close look at the vehicles making China's auto industry increasingly hard to ignore
The North Carolina native is the co-founder of Wheelsboy, a YouTube channel specialising in Chinese cars for English-speaking audiences. For ​many on his tour, the appeal of the vehicles was obvious: low prices, advanced technology and plenty of variety.
At one booth, ​he showed off a luxury electric SUV from Stellantis (STLAM.MI), opens new tab-backed Leapmotor (9863.HK), opens new tab, which sports wide screens and a fridge in ⁠the back seat.
You're looking at a car that's maybe $30,000 and that car is fully equipped," he said. "Whereas $30,000 barely gets you into any electric vehicle ​or hybrid" in the United States.
That price difference is a big reason why his largely American audience reacts ​with a mix of fascination and frustration
Our comment section is full of people saying things like, 'I can't believe the government won't allow them to sell this car in my country,'" Robertson told Reuters.
One participant on the tour, New Zealand retiree John Cordell, was drawn to a shiny yellow Deepal S07 midsize crossover.
First of all, I ​was attracted to the color," the 77-year-old former heating and ventilation engineer, said. But it was more than the paintwork that won him over. ​He praised the interior, the heads-up display, the screens and the surround-view camera system.
His brother-in-law and his son accompanied him on the two-day, $399 per person tour.
Cordell ‌already owns ⁠a Chinese EV back home — a BYD Atto 3 — and said technology was a major selling point. "Everything is very well engineered," he said.
Andrew Pertsoulis, a 62-year-old retired performance coach from Sydney, said what stood out most was how futuristic the cars felt inside. "It's what separates them," he said. The large screens and tech-rich interiors made him feel like he had "stepped into a new generation of vehicle".
Robertson, who lives in ​China, said the perception of Chinese ​cars among U.S. viewers has ⁠changed in the six years he has been covering the industry. While the cars were seen as low-quality copycats early on, that's given way to recognition that many brands are now pushing the industry forward in ​areas such as battery performance, software and charging speeds.
Robertson, who started studying Chinese as an undergraduate, said ​he still sometimes gets ⁠accused of working for Chinese companies or the government because of positive coverage on his channel, which has 210,000 subscribers. He doesn't work for either, he said.
Lei Xing is the American co-host of the China EVs & More podcast. Even for him, ⁠China's industry - with ​more than 100 automakers - is huge and complex. "I get lost," Lei said.
More Americans are starting to follow the industry more closely.
While Lei doesn't ​expect Chinese brands to enter the U.S. market quickly, due to hostile politics, he expects the cars will eventually reach American shores.
It's a matter of time," Lei said. "I know in ​my life I'm going to be able to buy a Chinese EV."

The evolution of the blockchain industry has long been defined by the “Smart Economy”—a world of programmable assets and automated contracts. However, according to John Wang, head of Neo ecosystem growth and managing director of Neo Ecofund, the industry is on the precipice of a more profound shift toward what he calls the “Sentient Economy.”
In a recent discussion regarding the launch of Spoonos, Neo’s new framework for artificial intelligence (AI) agents, Wang detailed a future where the primary participants in the global economy may not be human at all.
While the industry often treats AI and blockchain as separate silos, Wang views their integration as the foundation for a new economic class. The Sentient Economy is defined as an economic system where AI agents—rather than just human operators—can own assets, make autonomous decisions, and interact trustlessly onchain.
Wang emphasizes that this movement is not merely about combining two popular technologies. Instead, it focuses on enabling AI agents to become real participants in the digital economy by ensuring they are verifiable, accountable, and composable. Under this framework, an AI agent is a sovereign economic entity. By living onchain, these agents can prove their identity, execute financial transactions without a human intermediary, and remain accountable through transparent, immutable code.
To turn this vision into reality, Neo has introduced Spoonos. Positioned as the successor to the “Smart Economy” philosophy that Neo has championed since 2017, Spoonos provides the technical scaffolding for building and coordinating these autonomous agents.
The framework currently supports a developer runtime and a unified data layer, allowing for the creation of agents that can reason using AI models while acting via blockchain infrastructure. Wang noted that the concept is already gaining institutional and developmental traction. Through strategic collaborations with industry leaders such as ChainGPT and Morph, Neo is actively cultivating a broader ecosystem where these agents can interact across different platforms and protocols.
Despite the momentum, Wang remains candid about the significant obstacles standing in the way of a fully realized Sentient Economy. He noted that developer tooling remains in its early stages, meaning the kits required to bridge high-level AI reasoning with low-level blockchain execution are still being refined. Furthermore, the mechanisms for value capture by agents are still nascent, as the industry works to determine how agents will generate and retain value autonomously. Finally, the learning curve remains steep, requiring developers to master the complex intersection of AI, blockchain, and decentralized coordination.
For Wang and the Neo ecosystem, this transition represents a natural progression in the utility of decentralized technology. If the last decade focused on making assets “smart” and programmable, the next decade is dedicated to making the economy itself “sentient.” As Wang summarized, the team previously built for programmable assets, but they are now building for “programmable intelligence.”
As AI agents begin to manage portfolios, optimize supply chains and negotiate contracts on-chain, the Sentient Economy may soon transition from a visionary concept to the standard operating procedure of the digital world.
Wang’s vision for the Sentient Economy extends far beyond decentralized finance, focusing instead on the capacity for AI to interpret the physical and digital worlds. During the Scoop AI Global Hackathon—which saw over 500 developers across Silicon Valley and London—Wang observed that the most compelling innovations were those that prioritized “probabilistic intelligence” over simple automation.
One standout application involved using Spoonos to recursively derive mathematical curves from raw data, uncovering hidden causal relationships between unrelated phenomena. For Wang, this represents the true potential of the framework: creating agents that serve as a bridge between raw information and human understanding.
To me, that’s the essence of the Sentient Economy—not just automating transactions, but building agents that perceive, reason and reveal structure in the world,” Wang said.
He believes this shift will occur through quiet integration rather than a sudden technological upheaval. As these tools become more sophisticated, they will begin to fundamentally alter how society processes information and makes decisions.
By the time people realize it’s happening, the Sentient Economy will already be here,” Wang predicted. “It won’t arrive with a big bang. It will quietly embed itself into how we observe, decide and act.”
The Neo Ecofund managing director believes the global Web3 ecosystem is currently undergoing a “civilizational” transformation. He argues that the industry has moved past the era of purely digital property—focused on tokens and consensus—into a new phase defined by programmable cognition.
For Wang, the most exciting shift is that blockchain is no longer just a tool for financial transactions; it has become the “coordination substrate” for autonomous, silicon-native agents. By providing AI with the cryptographic keys to reason, transact and persist on-chain, he suggests the industry is moving from building simple tools to “building minds.”
He describes this transition as the opening of a “trustless civilization of sentient actors,” a shift so profound it transcends the importance of any specific technical token standard. In his view, this evolution from “programmable value” to “programmable intelligence” marks the beginning of a “new social physics” where humans, AI and hybrid intelligences interact in a unified, networked economy.
As carbon-based intelligence gives way to silicon-native agents, we’re no longer just building tools—we’re building minds,” Wang said. “The moment we gave AI the keys to sign, transact, reason and persist—on-chain—we cracked open something far larger than a financial system.”
