Abstract

6月5日，韩国股市经历“黑色星期五”，KOSPI指数暴跌。6月8日盘中跌幅一度超8%，触发熔断，三星与SK海力士股价重挫。在此市场动荡之际，英伟达CEO黄仁勋的访韩起到了“救市”作用。 6月7日晚，黄仁勋与SK集团及SK海力士高层共进晚餐。餐后，他确认英伟达新款Vera CPU将采用SK海力士的DRAM，双方正为下半年及明年的“超大规模合作”做准备，并预计当前的内存芯片短缺将持续数年。随后，双方官宣了一份多年期技术合作协议，涉及AI超级计算机、机器人、数字孪生和半导体制造等领域。黄仁勋更公开表示，当前AI公司股价极具吸引力。合作具体包括：英伟达将Vera CPU等产品线的内存供应锚定SK海力士，共同开发下一代内存以支持AI基础设施。同时，SK海力士将利用英伟达的CUDA-X库和AI技术加速其芯片设计与制造流程，如计算光刻和构建晶圆厂数字孪生，目标是实现完全自主的工厂运营。此次合作早有铺垫。2025年10月，双方曾宣布在韩国合作建设大型AI工厂。尽管与SK海力士深化绑定，但英伟达在下一代HBM4内存上并未独家采购，三星、SK海力士和美光均已获得认证并将共同供货。黄仁勋指出，由于AI工厂建设导致需求激增，从晶圆到封装等整个半导体供应链的短缺状况预计将持续数年。黄仁勋此行还会见了现代、LG、三星等韩国企业，表明英伟达正系统性深化与韩国科技产业的联系，SK集团是其中的关键一环。

6 月 5 日,韩国股市遭遇「黑色星期五」,KOSPI 指数收盘暴跌 5.54%。6 月 8 日开盘后,盘中跌幅一度扩大至 8% 以上,交易平台触发熔断机制,三星与 SK 海力士双双跌近 10%。

市场风声鹤唳之际,黄仁勋的到访戏剧性地承担了「救市」的角色。

此前,韩国当地时间 6 月 7 日周日晚,黄仁勋与 SK 集团会长崔泰源、SK 海力士 CEO 郭鲁正等举办「晚餐会」。

餐后,黄仁勋向现场媒体确认:英伟达新推出的 Vera CPU 将采用 SK 海力士 DRAM;双方正在为今年下半年和明年「超大规模的合作」做准备;关于眼下的内存芯片短缺,他认为会持续好几年。

随后,英伟达与 SK 海力士官宣一份多年期技术合作协议,涉及 AI 超级计算机延伸到机器人、数字孪生和半导体制造。

黄仁勋更是在新闻发布会上直接吹票,「如果你是 AI 公司股东,你会感到高兴,目前它们的价格非常低。」

01 锁定 SK 海力士内存

Vera 是英伟达推出的首款独立数据中心专用 CPU,它所面对的竞争对手包括英特尔至强产品线、AMD 的 Epyc 芯片,以及亚马逊 Graviton 这类大型云服务商的自研项目。

在这个新战场上,英伟达从一开始就将内存供应锚定在 SK 海力士身上。

6 月 7 日,英伟达与 SK 海力士正式宣布建立多年期技术合作伙伴关系,围绕英伟达 AI 基础设施路线图,共同开发与之匹配的下一代内存。

据了解,双方合作覆盖了英伟达 Vera Rubin AI 超级计算机、Vera CPU、搭载 RTX Spark 的 PC 以及 Jetson Thor 机器人计算平台等一系列个人端侧与云端的产品线。

公告指出,合作旨在保障先进内存的供应,以应对此类产品较长的开发周期、复杂的制造工艺和高额的资本投入,进而支撑全球 AI 工厂的持续建设。

公告还列举了 SK 海力士将拓展进入英伟达正在开创的几个新市场,包括 AI 基础设施、个人 AI 和物理 AI。

02 AI 反哺芯片制造

除了供应内存,SK 海力士开始把英伟达的 AI 技术用到自芯片设计和制造流程里。

类似的合作此前已经在台积电落地,最典型的就是「计算光刻」。

根据公告,SK 海力士正在使用英伟达 CUDA-X 库和 AI 来加速半导体仿真,覆盖技术计算机辅助设计(TCAD)和计算光刻等环节。

双方还在推动将这些工具扩展到半导体电子设计自动化(EDA)和仿真生态系统中去,为芯片制造商、英伟达和 EDA 软件供应商之间的三方合作铺路。

这意味着,双方的合作已经不限于 SK 海力士自用,而是在摸索一套可以推向整个半导体行业的模式。

在制造环节,SK 海力士正在推进晶圆厂数字孪生功能的开发,目标是实现完全自主的工厂运营。这项工作的基础是英伟达 Omniverse 平台。借助 Omniverse 库和 OpenUSD 流程,SK 海力士得以构建 3D 工厂场景,用于可视化、模拟和优化复杂的半导体制造环境。

在工厂运营层面,这些数字孪生功能还能接入英伟达 cuOpt 决策优化引擎和 Metropolis 平台,用来调度自主移动机器人和晶圆厂内的其他资产。

公告还透露,两家公司正在探索将数字孪生与现有传统软件及智能体 AI 工作流打通,让 AI 系统能够基于晶圆厂数据进行推理、自动执行任务并改进制造决策。

03 提前半年铺垫

2025 年 10 月,英伟达和 SK 海力士就宣布过一项大规模的基础设施合作。

彼时,SK 集团正在建设一座配备超过 5 万颗英伟达 GPU 的 AI 工厂,第一阶段计划于 2027 年底前完工。建成后,这预计将成为韩国规模最大的 AI 工厂之一。

该工厂采用「GPU 即服务」的模式,面向 SK 集团旗下子公司及外部组织开放,目标是加速韩国产业的数字化转型和工业创新。

SK 电讯也在其中承担具体的部署工作。

作为英伟达的云合作伙伴,SK 电讯计划在亚洲使用英伟达 RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell 服务器版 GPU 构建工业 AI 云,初始部署规模超过 2000 颗 GPU,专门运行 Omniverse 工作负载,为 SK 海力士的半导体制造、晶圆厂数字孪生和内部 AI 智能体提供算力支撑。

黄仁勋在此次访韩期间还透露了一个信息:他正在与电信公司展开讨论,因为未来的 AI 将使用电信网络。这与 SK 电讯参与合作的方向是一致的。

04 三家分走 HBM4 订单

尽管英伟达与 SK 海力士签下了多年技术合作协议,但在 HBM4 的供应上,英伟达并没有把鸡蛋放在一个篮子里。

黄仁勋在抵达首尔时就向记者明确表态:「三家供应商均已获得资格认证。三家供应商都已投入生产,他们都在竞相支持 Vera Rubin。」

这三家供应商对应三星电子、SK 海力士和美光科技。

在台北电脑展的主题演讲中,黄仁勋已确认 Vera Rubin 全面投产,计划于今年第三季度交付。这套系统围绕英伟达 Vera CPU 和 Rubin 图形核心集群构建,每个服务器机架系统都搭配 TB 级别的 HBM4 内存。

从 HBM4 的实际进度来看,SK 海力士仍处于领跑位置。

路透社去年 9 月曾报道,SK 海力士当时已完成 HBM4 芯片的内部认证,并为客户建立了生产体系,目标是在 2025 年下半年完成 12 层 HBM4 产品的量产准备。Meritz 证券高级分析师 Kim Sunwoo 当时预测,得益于向关键客户的早期供应以及由此带来的先发优势,SK 海力士 2026 年的 HBM 市场份额将保持在六成出头。

05 芯片短缺将持续数年

在 HBM4 供应上铺开三家的局面,并不意味着供应压力就此缓解。

黄仁勋在周日晚餐后,还给出了一个不太乐观的判断。他对现场媒体表示,存储芯片短缺不会很快结束。「整个行业供应链——从晶圆到封装再到硅光子......一切都在短缺,因为需求如此之高。这种情况将持续数年。」

这段表态的背景,是全球 AI 工厂建设对先进内存近乎无休止的消耗。

黄仁勋所说的短缺,不是缺某一种料,而是产业链上几乎每个环节都供应紧张。英伟达推出 Vera Rubin、推广 AI 工厂、进入个人 AI 和物理 AI 领域,每一件事都在拉高对内存的需求。这也是为什么他会说三家 HBM4 供应商都在竞相支持 Vera Rubin。

没人愿意在供不应求的局面里掉队。

这次韩国之行,SK 集团虽然是重点,但并不是黄仁勋全部日程。他在抵达时曾透露,自己安排了与现代汽车、LG、SK、三星以及 Naver 的会议。他还透露,英伟达正在积极为韩国新研发中心招聘人员。从这些动向来看,英伟达正在系统性地加深与整个韩国科技产业的联系,SK 集团是其中的关键一环,但并非唯一一环。

Sharplink CEO: One Million Ethereum Developers, Who Can Compete?

Etherean Ecosystem: One Million Developers and a Formidable Moat The Ethereum network has surpassed a significant milestone: over one million unique lifetime developers, with approximately 232,000 active in the past year. This vast and growing talent pool is Ethereum's core advantage, far more critical than transient metrics like speed or transaction fees. The central question is not which blockchain is fastest, but where the best builders choose to build long-term. Ethereum's answer lies in a decade-long accumulation of infrastructure, standards, tools, liquidity, and collaborative culture that is exceptionally difficult to replicate. It has become the default operating system for programmable finance. This massive developer base is actively working on complex, high-risk challenges that deepen Ethereum's strategic moat: * **Glamsterdam Upgrade (2026):** Focused on core protocol scalability (ePBS, parallel execution) while preserving core values like credible neutrality. * **Synchronous Composability:** Aims to make numerous Rollups interoperate like a single chain, directly addressing fragmentation concerns. * **Quantum Resistance:** Ethereum leads mainstream ecosystems in coordinated preparation for post-quantum cryptography, with a targeted migration plan around 2029. This developer advantage is self-reinforcing, fueled by: * **Deep Composability:** Applications interact like interoperable financial Lego bricks via shared standards (e.g., EVM, Solidity). * **Credible Neutrality:** Secured by over 900,000 validators, making it trusted by major institutions. * **Modularity:** Rollups (Base, Arbitrium, etc.) expand, rather than fracture, the ecosystem into a tightly connected modular internet economy. * **Culture:** Attracts top-tier researchers and standard-setters who guide the entire industry. In essence, while other chains generate activity, Ethereum is consolidating as the trusted, long-term coordination layer for internet-native finance. Its future is being built now by the architects of the next-generation financial infrastructure.

Ethereum Reaches the Milestone of One Million Developers, Sharplink CEO Delves Deep into Ethereum's Future Possibilities

Ethereum Surpasses One Million Developers Milestone: A Look at Its Unshakeable Dominance and Future Joseph Chalom, CEO of Sharplink, reflects on his recent Asia trip where he engaged deeply with Ethereum developers and ecosystem leaders. The most striking takeaway was not just the industry's vibrancy, but the rigorous, long-term vision of local builders. This context brings to life a pivotal statistic: Ethereum has now surpassed one million cumulative developers (1,012,824), with approximately 232,000 remaining active in the past year—a talent pool unmatched by any other crypto ecosystem. The critical question isn't which blockchain is fastest, but where top developers choose to build long-term. Ethereum's answer is unequivocal. Its decade-long lead stems from a unique convergence of technology, institutional culture, economic systems, and composability, cementing its role as the foundational operating system for programmable finance. This massive developer base is tackling the industry's hardest problems, continuously strengthening Ethereum's moat. Key initiatives include: * **The Glamsterdam Upgrade (planned 2026):** Introducing ePBS and Block-level Access Lists for parallel execution and higher throughput while preserving core values like credible neutrality and fair MEV distribution. * **Synchronous Composability:** Projects are working to enable atomic transactions across dozens of Rollups, making them function as one unified chain and eliminating ecosystem fragmentation. * **Post-Quantum Security:** Ethereum is far ahead in preparing for quantum computing threats, with a dedicated foundation working group and testnets targeting a full migration by ~2029—a crucial factor for institutional adoption. Beyond developers, Ethereum's core network effects are its unparalleled composability and unified standards (like EVM and Solidity), which create a powerful flywheel: more developers → better tools → greater liquidity → more institutional participation. Its other decisive advantages include credible neutrality (over 900k validators), a secure modular architecture with interconnected Rollups, and a deeply entrenched culture shaped by top-tier researchers. Ultimately, there's a vast difference between generating short-term activity and becoming the trusted, long-term coordination layer for global native finance. Major institutions prioritize security, trust, and liquidity—areas where Ethereum holds dominant mindshare. The industry's trajectory shows resources consolidating around unified standards, deep liquidity, and developer consensus. After meeting the builders in Seoul and Hong Kong, Chalom is more convinced than ever: Ethereum's unshakeable future is being built right now.

Saylor's Latest Long Read: Bitcoin is Not Money, It's Digital Capital, and Money is Built Upon It

Michael Saylor presents his "Digital Asset Stack" theory, positioning Bitcoin as the foundational layer of digital capital. He argues Bitcoin itself should remain unchanged—no staking, inflation, or protocol alterations. Instead, a five-layer financial architecture should be built atop it: Digital Capital (BTC), Digital Credit (e.g., yield instruments like STRC), Digital Currency (stable, yield-bearing instruments pegged to fiat), Digital Yield (leveraged/structured products), and Digital Equity (e.g., MSTR stock, absorbing residual volatility). Saylor asserts this stack transforms Bitcoin's high-volatility, high-energy capital into tailored products: stable currencies for payments/savings, yield instruments for income seekers, and equity for growth investors. This approach meets diverse needs—corporate treasuries, banks, retirees, emerging market users—without compromising Bitcoin's core properties (scarcity, decentralization). The "killer use case" is rebuilding global money, credit, and capital markets on Bitcoin, bridging the fiat world with a superior digital asset foundation. The system leverages traditional finance principles (risk layering, structured products) while using Bitcoin as the ultimate collateral. This expands Bitcoin's utility, drives adoption, and offers a better monetary experience: digital, yield-bearing, stable-value tools for everyday use.

Can SK Hynix's Stock Double Again in This Rally?

The article discusses the highly optimistic price target of approximately $3,500 for SK Hynix stock, set by Aletheia Capital. This target is significantly above the consensus range of $2,000-$2,520 from major brokerages. The core debate is whether SK Hynix deserves a fundamental re-rating beyond its traditional cyclical discount, based on the long-term impact of AI-driven demand. The $3,500 target hinges on three key assumptions holding simultaneously until at least 2027: 1) Continued shortage and high pricing for HBM (High Bandwidth Memory), a critical component for AI chips; 2) Sustained high prices for standard DRAM, as HBM production consumes capacity and constrains general supply; and 3) Strong AI server demand generating substantial, above-expectation free cash flow. SK Hynix's leading ~58% market share in HBM and its early certification with key clients like Nvidia provide a competitive advantage, allowing it to capture significant supply chain premiums. The HBM shortage is seen not just as a niche growth driver but as a catalyst that amplifies profitability across the entire memory business by tightening overall DRAM supply. However, the article cautions that this target represents an optimistic "tail scenario." Key risks include potential supply increases from competitors (Samsung, Micron) by 2027, a possible slowdown in HBM price growth, and high capital expenditures that could erode the projected free cash flow. The divergence in analyst targets reflects the market's uncertainty over whether the current AI-driven boom will temporarily elevate earnings or permanently raise the memory industry's profit baseline.

HIP-3's Watershed Moment: After Trade.XYZ Swallows 90% of the Market, Multiple Players Exit One After Another

HIP-3 on Hyperliquid, enabling permissionless market creation, has fueled rapid growth with over $300 billion in cumulative trading volume. However, the ecosystem is undergoing a sharp consolidation. Trade.XYZ has captured a dominant market share, exceeding 90% of trading volume and 97% of open interest, driven by its first-mover advantage, use of USDC, and rapid asset expansion. This has created a significant liquidity flywheel effect, leaving other projects struggling. Several have recently shut down, including Felix and Ventuals, citing unsustainable competition and the high costs of market deployment. The initial 500,000 HYPE staking requirement (worth ~$35.9M) and subsequent auction costs for new assets present a high barrier to entry. Analysis shows most deployers face low annual yields and multi-year cost recovery periods, unlike Trade.XYZ's estimated 74% yield and 5-month payback. This centralization risks stifling innovation and limiting Hyperliquid's ecosystem diversity beyond perpetual contracts. Proposed solutions include a tiered exchange model with lower entry barriers and adjustments to the fee-sharing model for new markets to improve sustainability for smaller players.

Integration with oracle services maintains accurate pricing and dividend information, ensuring CRMON reflects the underlying Salesforce stock's accurate performance. This architecture delivers automated dividend reinvestments and other corporate actions, eliminating manual processing requirements and directly enhancing tokenholder benefits. Ondo Finance ensures CRMON's security structure includes daily third-party verification of holdings, independent collateral agents, and a multiple-layer custody system through partnerships with established financial institutions. This framework safeguards tokenholder interests against operational risks while providing robust asset backing. The user interface enhances integration capabilities, allowing seamless interaction between CRMON and various decentralised finance protocols, as well as cryptocurrency exchanges. This interoperability enables users to leverage their tokenised equity across multiple platforms, creating sophisticated investment strategies that marry traditional equity characteristics with blockchain-native innovation. Leadership and Corporate Structure of Ondo Finance The leadership team behind CRMON and Ondo Finance blends expertise from traditional finance and blockchain technology, presenting a robust combination of skills essential for successfully bridging conventional markets with decentralised finance. Nathan Allman, the founder and CEO, emerged from a distinguished financial background before establishing Ondo Finance in 2021. Allman's experience includes notable roles at major financial institutions, including significant contributions to developing cryptocurrency market services. His insights into regulatory compliance were paramount in developing products like CRMON that successfully unify traditional securities with blockchain technology. With a team of professionals boasting substantial experience in both conventional finance and blockchain sectors, Ondo Finance's leadership comprises diverse expertise that covers every aspect of tokenised asset development. Justin Schmidt serves as President and COO, contributing unique operational expertise, while Chris Tyrell brings essential compliance knowledge. Investment Landscape and Funding History The investment landscape surrounding Ondo Finance reflects significant institutional confidence in its mission to tokenise real-world assets. The company has raised substantial funds through various investment rounds, attracting leading venture capital firms and strategic investors that recognise the transformative potential of tokenised securities like CRMON. Notably, Ondo Finance completed a successful Series A funding round in 2022, led by well-known venture capital firms. This funding success validates Ondo Finance's innovative approach to creating compliant, institutional-grade tokenised products. In total, Ondo Finance has successfully secured substantial funding, raising significant capital for product development and market expansion, including a noteworthy token sale that reinforced its governance structure through the establishment of the ONDO token. The diverse composition of investors reflects broad market confidence in Ondo Finance's business model, demonstrating support from both traditional and blockchain-native organisations. Operational Mechanics and Technical Implementation The operational framework supporting CRMON exemplifies sophisticated integration of traditional financial mechanisms with blockchain technology. The technical implementation introduces multiple layers of security, compliance, and operational efficiency to meet institutional standards while enhancing accessibility. The tokenisation process begins by acquiring actual Salesforce stock through U.S.-registered broker-dealers, ensuring each CRMON token maintains direct correlation with the underlying equity performance. Smart contracts automate operational processes, including dividend reinvestment and corporate action processing, facilitating a streamlined user experience. The Minting and redemption processes allow authorised participants to manage CRMON tokens effectively. During U.S. trading hours, institutions can mint new tokens by depositing stablecoins that are used to purchase corresponding Salesforce equity. This structure maintains a tight correlation with underlying assets, enhancing liquidity and price discovery. Additionally, the infrastructure supports twenty-four-hour token transfer capabilities, providing CRMON holders with operations outside traditional market hours. This represents a significant advantage over conventional securities ownership, thus promoting integration with decentralised finance applications. Plans for cross-chain compatibility through partnerships signal further ambitions for CRMON's market reach. By expanding to other blockchain networks, Ondo Finance aims to enhance accessibility and user engagement with tokenised equity products.
