NVIDIA employees have launched an internal petition demanding Jensen Huang's reinstatement, with the related post garnering over 1,600 comments, most of which support his return.

Xiao Feng, Chairman and CEO of HashKey Group, delivered a speech at the 2026 Citi China Summit, noting that "financial digitalization" in the internet era mainly uses digital technology to boost financial efficiency. Entering the AI era, AI Tokens enable intelligent value to be measured, traded, and invested, while AI Agents and robots have begun to use currency autonomously, requiring the financial system to further upgrade from "financial digitalization" to "digital financialization". Citing data, Xiao Feng said that the AI payment protocol x402 on a compliant overseas public chain has recorded around 138 million total payments over the past 12 months, with 87% of the payment amounts ranging from $0.01 to $0.1. He argued that the high-frequency micro-payment demands brought by AI Agents and robots are difficult to be supported by traditional bank accounts and clearing systems, and the proportion of AI Agents and robots among financial institution clients may continue to rise in the future. Regarding infrastructure, Xiao Feng pointed out that the global financial system is accelerating the tokenization of deposits, stablecoins, and assets. When both the funding side and the asset side achieve tokenization, a complete on-chain financial closed loop is expected to form, enabling "transaction-as-settlement" and all-weather trading. In addition, HashKey Exchange is exploring potential cooperation with Citibank in areas such as custody, tokenized deposits, and fund clearing and settlement.

Beating AI News: OpenAI privately signaled to U.S. members of Congress this week its support for three bills aimed at restricting China’s access to advanced AI chips and manufacturing equipment. This is not OpenAI’s first backing for chip controls on China. Last year, the company actively advocated limiting U.S. firms from selling high-end chips to China, but later stopped pushing for stricter measures in Congress. OpenAI executives have long feared that publicly supporting tighter chip exports to China would anger Jensen Huang and harm its partnership with NVIDIA. The two firms have a close relationship: NVIDIA not only supplies GPUs to OpenAI, but also supports the company’s data center construction via large financing guarantees. For his part, Huang has long lobbied Washington to ease restrictions on chip sales to China. Anthropic has taken a far more unambiguous stance. In September this year, the company directly withdrew from a tech industry association over its opposition to the group blocking chip control bills. Now, OpenAI has reversed course after a prior retreat. The three bills it backs would, respectively, strengthen chip tracking, restrict the supply of chip manufacturing equipment to China, and increase congressional review of sensitive chip export licenses. Jensen Huang resigned on November 12, a move that has weakened NVIDIA’s lobbying influence in Washington. Bipartisan members of Congress are working to include these restrictions in the year-end National Defense Authorization Act.
