China's internet landscape has long been characterized by a balance between control and freedom. Bloomberg posted on X, highlighting a new book that explores how this dynamic might influence the future of artificial intelligence (AI) in the country. The book suggests that while China's internet has never been entirely free, it has also never been completely controlled, creating a unique environment for AI development. The author argues that this tension between regulation and innovation could play a significant role in shaping AI's trajectory in China. As the government continues to exert control over digital spaces, the development of AI technologies may be influenced by these regulatory frameworks. This could lead to a distinct path for AI in China compared to other countries where internet freedom is more prevalent. The book delves into the complexities of China's internet policies and their implications for AI, offering insights into how these factors might affect technological advancements. It suggests that the balance between control and freedom could be a defining characteristic of China's AI future, impacting both domestic and global AI landscapes. As AI continues to evolve, the interplay between government control and technological innovation in China remains a critical area of study. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of this relationship, shedding light on the potential outcomes for AI development in the country.

Cryptoquant analyst Darkfost points out that altcoin trading volumes on Binance and other major exchanges have plummeted, reflecting a significant decline in investor interest. Despite the ongoing bear market, altcoins are still significantly lagging behind Bitcoin. Currently, altcoin trading volume on Binance is approximately $7.7 billion, while other major exchanges combined total around $18.8 billion, far below the active trading period from October to February 2025, when Binance's volume ranged from $40-50 billion, and other exchanges traded approximately $63-91 billion. Relatively speaking, Binance currently accounts for about 40% of total altcoin trading volume, meaning almost one dollar out of every two dollars of altcoin trading is completed through the platform. Past trading volume peaks typically occurred at local market highs, associated with FOMO (fear of missing out), becoming liquidity windows for investors to cash out. Darkfost notes that despite the unfavorable market environment, this type of data is still worth noting. Historical experience shows that the most attractive investment opportunities often arise during periods of low market interest and when most investors are on the sidelines.

A U.S. federal judge has ruled that the Department of Defense's restrictions on journalist interviews violate the First Amendment, according to Jin10. The decision, made on Friday, favors The New York Times, which filed a lawsuit against the Pentagon in December last year. The judge approved The New York Times' injunction request, preventing the Department of Defense from enforcing a policy that significantly reduces mainstream newspapers, news agencies, and television stations' participation in news briefings. The policy required journalists to sign a pledge to adhere to specific rules to maintain their interview eligibility. Most mainstream news organizations, including conservative outlets like Fox News and Newsmax, refused to sign the pledge. Judge Paul Friedman stated that the Pentagon's media policy is unreasonable and noted that the Pentagon's claim that its new policy imposed no restrictions on journalists was incorrect. Furthermore, he indicated that the policy also violates the Fifth Amendment.

Wall Street is concerned that escalating conflict in the Middle East could cause international oil prices to surge, potentially reigniting inflation in the United States and prompting the Federal Reserve to pause interest rate cuts or even raise rates. Bank of America stated that whether the Fed will raise interest rates this year has become a recurring question among its clients. The bank's response is that while the possibility cannot be completely ruled out, the Fed must meet certain conditions to raise rates, including a stable labor market, further inflation, and Jerome Powell remaining as Fed Chairman. According to the CME FedWatch Tool, Wall Street traders expect a greater than 30% probability of a rate hike by the end of the year, while the probability of a rate cut is only 6.1%. (Cailian Press)
