Abstract

商汤科技发布正面盈利预警,预计2026年上半年将首次实现合并盈利,股价应声大涨。然而,其当前股价与市值相较2021年底的巅峰期已跌去超八成,经历了一段艰难时期。 商汤曾以计算机视觉技术(如人脸识别、智慧城市方案)闻名,是“AI四小龙”之一。但随着ChatGPT引领的生成式AI(AI 2.0)时代到来,行业焦点从“识别”转向“创造”,商汤原有的技术路线面临挑战。加之被美制裁、创始人身故、做空报告等多重打击,其传统智慧城市业务收入占比大幅萎缩,公司进行了大幅裁员。 为求生存,商汤进行了深度转型,从依赖项目制的视觉AI解决方案公司,转向生成式AI与视觉AI双轮驱动。目前,其超七成收入来自大模型业务,商业模式向更具规模效应的模型订阅服务转变。同时,公司通过提升训练效率、适配国产芯片等方式控制成本,使亏损大幅收窄。 尽管实现盈利是重要转折,但商汤仍面临严峻挑战。当前大模型竞争已是生态之争,巨头们拥有算力、流量和应用入口的综合优势。作为独立的AI公司,商汤需要证明自己能在巨头环伺下,凭模型技术和行业落地能力建立新的护城河。扭亏为盈只是开始,真正的翻身之路依然漫长。

8月17日,老牌明星AI公司商汤迎来久违的强势爆发,股价盘中一度飙升超13%,截至发稿涨超8%,总市值回升至约646亿港元。引发这场资本狂欢的,是商汤在16日晚间发布的一份“正面盈利预警”——公司预计2026年上半年将成功实现扭亏为盈,这也是商汤自2022年登陆港交所以来首次实现合并盈利。

然而,当市场为这份历史性转折欢呼时,商汤的股价距离巅峰期依然有着巨大的鸿沟。回望2021年底至2022年初,商汤上市之初曾备受资本追捧,股价最高一度逼近9.70港元/股,总市值一度冲破2700亿港元。而如今,即便经历了单日大涨,其股价也仅在1.53港元左右徘徊,市值更是从巅峰期跌去了超八成。

从“AI四小龙”时代最受资本追捧到遭遇多重风暴的至暗时刻,这家曾站在风口上的王者,正试图通过向生成式AI全面转型来重新追赶时代。

AI最火的时候,它为什么掉队了?

2018 年,如果你问一个科技圈的人:中国 AI 哪家强?

答案里大概率有商汤。

确实,在那几年,商汤是真正的顶流。人脸识别、智慧城市、自动驾驶,凡是跟 AI 沾边的热门赛道,几乎都能看到它的身影。它和旷视、依图、云从另外三家并称“AI 四小龙”,是科技媒体版面的常客,融资一轮接一轮,估值一路飙升。那时候的商汤,就像学校里那个次次考第一的学霸,所有人都觉得它前途无量。

然而时间快进到 2023 年,画风突然变了。

当ChatGPT、 DeepSeek 、Claude、Gemini引爆全球,当AI成为资本市场最热门的概念,当OpenAI、Anthropic成为科技圈的焦点时,商汤却逐渐从大众视野里消失了。

为什么会这样?答案可能非常残酷:商汤踩中了AI 1.0,却错过了AI 2.0。

要理解这一点,得先搞清楚两个时代的AI,到底有什么区别?

商汤起家的那个时代,AI 干的主要是“识别”的活 —— 给它一张人脸,它告诉你是谁;给它一张路口照片,它标出哪辆车闯了红灯;给它一段监控视频,它数出有多少人经过。

这类技术有个专业说法儿,叫计算机视觉,简单说就是教机器看懂世界。商汤在这个领域做到了顶尖,靠给企业提供人脸识别、智慧城市解决方案赚得盆满钵满。

但 ChatGPT 的横空出世,直接换了一套游戏规则。新一代 AI 不再满足于看懂,它还开始创造,写文章、做视频,甚至还能写代码。

这就好比商汤练了十年识别拳法,刚练成天下第一,结果江湖上突然流行起生成剑法,而且人人都在练。以前的功夫不是没用了,但确实不是主角了。

如果只是技术路线掉队,商汤未必没有翻盘的机会。真正致命的是,从 2019 年到 2023 年,坏消息像约好了一样,一个接一个砸过来。

先是 2019 年起,美国把商汤列入制裁清单。紧接着 2022 年底,ChatGPT 横空出世,整个行业的技术范式被颠覆。商汤赖以生存的计算机视觉赛道,突然从未来方向,变成了传统业务,而它在大模型上的布局慢了半拍。

屋漏偏逢连夜雨。曾经的现金牛,智慧城市业务也开始萎缩,收入增长失速。

2023 年更是商汤的“至暗时刻”。这一年,创始人汤晓鸥离世,业内一片惋惜,对公司内部士气和资本市场信心都是沉重一击;几乎同时,做空机构灰熊发布报告质疑商汤,股价雪上加霜。

一连串打击下来,数字触目惊心:2021年,智慧城市业务占商汤总收入的45.6%;到了2022年,这一比例下降到28.8%;2023年则进一步下降到约12.%。商汤甚至主动降低了对智慧城市业务的依赖。

与此同时,市值也从巅峰时期的约 3000 亿港元,跌到只剩几百亿港元;员工人数从 6114 人大幅裁减至 2472 人,三年半里减员近 60%,相当于每十个人走了六个。

几乎所有能想到的危机,都在过去这几年间发生了。

与其说这是一个掉队的故事,不如说是一家明星AI公司在时代转弯处,被多重风暴同时击中的故事。

那个曾经靠“刷脸”赚钱的公司,还能翻身吗?

如果你以为商汤就此彻底销声匿迹,再也不会出现了,那可能忽略了一个非常有意思的事实:商汤已经从一家做人脸识别的公司,转型为生成式AI与视觉AI双轮驱动的科技企业了。

直接点说:商汤主动“杀死”了过去的自己。

从最新的业绩预告看,转型已经初见成效:2026年上半年,预计录得约 5亿~7亿元的期内利润,而去年同期亏损约 14.89亿元;净亏损比上年同期降低60%~70%。

值得注意的是,商汤在公告中明确提到:“这将是公司自上市以来,首次实现合并盈利”。

这是一个很重要的信号。因为在过去几年,外界对商汤最大的质疑,就是它究竟能不能赚到钱?

作为中国AI产业最耀眼的明星之一,商汤在2018年至2021年,讲述的是一个技术改变世界的故事。那时,大家似乎都认可:谁拥有最先进的算法,谁拥有最多的AI论文,谁的人脸识别准确率更高,谁就有可能成为下一个时代的赢家。

但后来大家发现,技术领先,也不意味着商业上的成功。

过去,商汤最核心的业务是智慧城市、智慧商业和智慧生活。说得更直白一点,就是向地方和企业出售人工智能解决方案。比如,人脸识别门禁、城市安防系统、交通识别、园区管理等。

这种商业模式有一个天然的缺陷:项目做完,收入也就结束了。这导致它更像是一家技术服务公司,而不是一家互联网平台。

一家互联网平台可以通过用户持续创造收入,但项目制企业必须不断寻找新的订单。

这也是为什么,过去很多年,商汤始终没有摆脱亏损的困境。

而生成式AI的出现,改变了这一切。过去,商汤是在卖项目;现在,它改成了卖模型。

一套大模型,可以同时服务金融、教育、办公、机器人、内容创作等多个行业。它不再是“一次性交付”的生意,而更像可持续的订阅。这种模式最大的优势在于,理论上更具规模效应。

从业务结构看,生成式AI已经成为商汤新的增长引擎。比如2025年全年,生成式AI业务实现收入36.3亿元,占总收入的比重达到72.4%;另一主业视觉AI业务的收入为10.8亿元,占比也有21.6%。

也就是说,曾经那个依靠刷脸赚钱的商汤,如今七成以上的收入已经来自大模型。

与此同时,商汤也开始主动控制成本。

训练大模型,本质上是一场“烧钱”的游戏。过去几年,商汤一直被贴着“烧钱机器”的标签。从成立到上市,研发投入累计超过百亿元,而持续亏损也成为投资者最担心的问题。

但最近两年,商汤明显调整了策略。一方面,它开始强调模型训练效率。另一方面,它也在努力降低对高端算力的依赖,通过优化模型架构和适配国产芯片,减少训练成本。

从经营结果来看,这种策略确实开始发挥作用。但问题在于,盈利并不意味着已经翻身。到这里,如果问商汤翻身了吗?恐怕没有。因为它正面临一个更大的问题:独立AI公司还有机会吗?

因为现在的大模型竞争,本质上已经变成了生态之争。

看看现在站在牌桌中央的玩家:OpenAI背后有微软、谷歌拥有搜索、安卓和云计算、阿里拥有阿里云和电商生态、腾讯拥有微信、字节拥有抖音......这些公司拥有一个共同特点:它们不仅有模型,还有算力、用户、流量和应用入口。

而模型,只是其中的一部分,真正决定胜负的,是整个生态体系。而这恰恰是商汤最薄弱的地方。

事实上,这不仅仅是商汤面临的问题,也是全球所有独立AI公司共同面对的挑战。

过去,商汤需要证明的是:AI技术能不能变成一门生意?而今天,它需要证明:在巨头环伺的大模型时代,一家没有超级流量入口的AI公司,能否凭借模型能力和行业落地能力建立新的商业护城河。

Is Stablecoin Really Necessary for Cross-border Payments?

"Is Stablecoin Truly Necessary for Cross-Border Payments? While stablecoins are often praised as superior for cross-border transfers—especially if the recipient desires crypto—their advantage is less clear in traditional cross-currency scenarios (e.g., USD to Mexican Peso). The existing correspondent banking system is slow and costly (≈15% fees) due to multiple intermediaries. Modern fintech solutions like Wise have dramatically improved this by using a netting model: they hold local currency pools and settle payments domestically, avoiding actual cross-border fund movement. This offers near-instant transfers with low, transparent fees (averaging ~0.52%). The 'stablecoin sandwich' model (convert fiat to stablecoin, transfer on-chain, convert to local fiat) offers similar user experience but doesn't inherently provide major cost or speed advantages over fintech. Its on-chain transfer is cheap, but fiat conversion spreads remain. Stablecoin's real innovation is 'unbundling' the cross-border payment stack. Instead of requiring a proprietary global network like Wise, businesses only need reliable on- and off-ramps in specific corridors. This lowers market entry barriers, fosters competition among local providers, and can drive down costs, particularly for niche or underserved corridors (e.g., US to Africa). While vertical integration may reoccur, the open, permissionless nature of the underlying blockchain layer makes monopolistic pricing difficult. The long-term benefit is the potential redistribution of value—previously captured as intermediary rents—to consumers through lower costs."

Ethereum Finally 'Bounces Back'! ETH Returns to the Golden Line, What's Different About This Rally?

Ethereum has surged above $2,300, a level not seen in over three months, marking a significant recovery and technical breakthrough by reclaiming key resistance levels, including the weekly EMA50 for the first time in the current bear market. The rally has been fueled by a combination of factors: improved market risk appetite, positive regulatory sentiment, and a major short squeeze where over 88% of recent ETH liquidations were short positions. The ETH/BTC ratio has also broken its long-term downtrend, indicating renewed strength for Ethereum relative to Bitcoin. Fundamentally, Ethereum spot ETFs have shown strong inflows, outperforming their Bitcoin counterparts in recent months. Wall Street institutions like Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan have notably increased their ETH exposure, while several banks have added or expanded positions in ETH ETFs. On-chain fundamentals remain robust, with the proportion of staked ETH reaching a new all-time high of nearly 33.7%. Data indicates long-term holding sentiment, as small wallet holdings increased while large outflows were often directed towards staking or contracts, not selling. However, potential headwinds include declining staking yields and community debate over proposals to adjust staking rewards at high participation levels. The upcoming Glamsterdam upgrade, featuring improvements to validator exit efficiency, could enhance liquidity and further attract institutional stakers. While the rebound is supported by sentiment, capital flows, and fundamentals, its sustainability hinges on continued positive developments.

What is CRMON

Salesforce Tokenized Stock (Ondo): Revolutionising Traditional Equity Access Through Blockchain Innovation The emergence of Salesforce Tokenized Stock (CRMON) marks a pivotal advancement in integrating traditional financial markets with blockchain technology. This innovative approach offers investors unprecedented access to equity exposure through tokenisation. Developed by Ondo Finance, CRMON provides tokenholders with economic exposure equivalent to holding Salesforce stock (CRM) while automatically reinvesting dividends. This effectively bridges the gap between conventional equity markets and decentralised finance (DeFi). Introduction and Comprehensive Overview of Salesforce Tokenized Stock In recent years, the financial landscape has dramatically transformed due to blockchain technology, fundamentally altering how investors access and interact with traditional assets. The development of Salesforce Tokenized Stock (CRMON) is a prime example of this evolution, representing a sophisticated fusion of conventional equity markets with cutting-edge distributed ledger technology. CRMON is a tokenised version of Salesforce stock, emerging from the innovative work of Ondo Finance, a leading platform in the real-world asset tokenisation sector that positions itself as a bridge between traditional finance and decentralised systems. Designed to provide tokenholders with economic exposure that mirrors the performance of the underlying Salesforce stock, CRMON incorporates automatic dividend reinvestment mechanisms. This eliminates many traditional barriers associated with international equity investment, such as complex brokerage relationships, currency conversion challenges, and restricted trading hours. The tokenisation process reimagines stock ownership as a blockchain-native asset while maintaining its economic equivalence with the underlying security, offering enhanced portability and integration capabilities within decentralised finance ecosystems. CRMON transcends its individual utility as an investment instrument to represent a fundamental shift in how financial markets can operate in an increasingly digital world. By maintaining full backing through U.S.-registered broker-dealers and implementing robust compliance frameworks, CRMON demonstrates that tokenised securities can achieve the regulatory standards necessary for institutional adoption while delivering the technological advantages of blockchain infrastructure. Understanding Tokenized Real-World Assets and CRMON's Strategic Position Tokenised real-world assets signify one of the most significant innovations in modern finance, fundamentally reimagining how traditional securities are represented, traded, and utilised within digital ecosystems. CRMON operates as a tokenised equity instrument correlating directly with Salesforce stock while optimising accessibility and efficiency. This aligns with Ondo Finance's broader mission to democratise access to institutional-grade financial products through innovative tokenisation strategies. The tokenisation process guarantees complete economic equivalence with the underlying Salesforce equity. Each CRMON token represents a proportional claim on Salesforce stock held by qualified custodians, with dividend payments automatically reinvested to maintain continuous exposure to total return performance. This structure simplifies dividend management and ensures that tokenholders receive the full economic benefit of their equity exposure, encompassing both capital appreciation and income generation. Ondo Finance's strategy in tokenising Salesforce stock demonstrates its expertise in creating compliant, institutional-grade products that meet traditional financial markets' stringent requirements. The platform’s focus on merging regulatory compliance with blockchain benefits positions it at the forefront of decentralised finance, captivating both institutional and retail investors seeking blockchain-native solutions. The Technology and Innovation Framework Behind CRMON The technological infrastructure supporting CRMON integrates blockchain technology with traditional financial mechanisms, delivering institutional-grade security and compliance while maintaining the operational advantages of decentralised systems. Built on the Ethereum blockchain, CRMON utilises robust smart contract capabilities to ensure transparent, secure operations. The smart contract architecture incorporates layered security and compliance mechanisms, enabling automated compliance checks and real-time asset backing verification. 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. Timeline and Historical Development of Tokenized Equity Innovation The timeline of CRMON's development and Ondo Finance's broader tokenised capabilities demonstrates a systematic innovation process beginning with the company's founding in 2021. 2021: Ondo Finance is founded by Nathan Allman and co-founders, launching initial products focused on structured vault offerings on the Ethereum blockchain. 2022: The company completes substantial funding rounds—both equity and token sales—totaling significant capital and launching initial tokenised U.S. Treasury products. 2023-2024: Ondo Finance experiences substantial growth, establishing partnerships with major financial institutions while expanding its product offerings beyond fixed-income securities. February 2025: Ondo Global Markets is announced, marking the transition into equity tokenisation with plans for accessing over one hundred U.S. stocks and ETFs. September 2025: The official launch of Ondo Global Markets includes CRMON alongside other tokenised equity offerings, marking a significant evolution in Ondo Finance's product ecosystem. This timeline highlights the organisation's rapid growth and its capability to adapt its technological and compliance frameworks to accommodate different asset classes effectively while maintaining security and regulatory integrity. Regulatory Framework and Compliance Approach Ondo Finance's regulatory framework showcases a sophisticated compliance strategy, essential for achieving institutional adoption in the tokenised securities market. The company's strong partnerships with U.S.-registered broker-dealers promote adherence to Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and apply robust investor protections. Acquisitions, such as Oasis Pro—a registered broker-dealer—significantly enhance Ondo Finance's compliance capabilities, ensuring thorough alignment with existing regulatory structures.
