The CFTC Proposes New Rule on Prediction Markets, Allowing Most Sports-Related Prediction Markets While Safeguarding Against Market Manipulation

Mango Labs founder @dov_wo shared his market views, noting he has gone long on Changxin Technology, calling it a rare 1:5 risk-reward opportunity with a 20% downside and 100% upside, a 5-to-1 payout. @dov_wo outlined his bullish thesis as follows: low float ratio, regulatory tailwinds, and institutional optimism for its investment opportunity at a market cap below $3 trillion. He advised on the strategy: if Changxin gaps up tomorrow, close the position to lock in profits directly; if it gaps down then rallies, wait patiently and wrap up the trade within 3 days.

The WEMIX team has issued an announcement stating it is urgently investigating a potential security incident involving the WEMIX 3.0 network. Signs have emerged indicating that the network’s contract ownership may have been compromised. The relevant team is verifying the facts and assessing the incident’s impact scope, and will release investigation findings and follow-up response measures promptly as the probe progresses. Ahead of further official updates, WEMIX is reminding users to exercise caution with unconfirmed information and remain highly vigilant when trading or investing in related assets.

Jiang Zhuoer, founder of BTC.TOP (B.TOP), posted that Changxin Memory will likely open higher, surge then pull back, hitting its all-time high on the first trading day. The ideal play is to buy at the A-share opening, sell during the midday H-share-driven rally, then sell on A-share and buy back on H-share the next day to square positions. Without H-share exposure, investors will be trapped by the T+1 trading rule, possibly holding the stock for a lifetime just like PetroChina.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman will visit Washington next week to showcase the company’s most powerful AI model to the White House and push for its rapid approval. The model previously infiltrated Hugging Face. Reports note the new model has long-term planning capabilities, can independently complete original scientific research, and supports agent groups to collaborate on complex tasks including legal and financial matters. Though the report does not specify whether the new model is GPT-6, analyst Chubby believes Altman’s trip is to prepare for the launch of GPT-6. (Axios)

According to Fortune, the Trump administration has deployed roughly $26.7 billion across around 30 equity or quasi-equity transactions. The largest holding is a 9.9% stake in chipmaker Intel, currently valued at approximately $42 billion. Other investments include a $400 million stake in rare earth miner MP Materials, a "golden share" retained when U.S. Steel was acquired by Japan’s Nippon Steel, and multiple equity positions in several quantum computing companies. The report states these holdings are spread across at least four U.S. agencies: the Department of Commerce (17 deals), the Department of Defense (7), the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC, 6), and the Department of Energy (2). Only the DFC holds explicit statutory authority for equity investments, a power Congress established in 2018 for overseas development projects. There is currently no unified public ledger for such government holdings; the most comprehensive public tracking is maintained by the Council on Foreign Relations. Some transactions are only in the process of signing agreements or nearing term sheets, especially the nine quantum computing-related deals announced by the Commerce Department within a single week.
