The Sandbox ecosystem welcomes Corners, a new Web3 platform in invite-only beta that lets participants coin and gain value from Internet content

Expanding The Sandbox ecosystem, Corners is a new Web3 platform to coin, curate, and share the content of the Internet, allowing curators to gain value from collections of URLs from all corners of the Internet

The Sandbox and Animoca Brands welcome the new free-to-use curation platform, Corners, into their ecosystem. Corners has launched an invite-only beta where users can coin, create, and share collections of internet content. Users can join the waitlist at www.corners.market.

Corners allows anyone to create a “Corner Coin” – a user-created, transferrable digital asset based on a curated collection of internet links, conversations, and content. Once a corner is created, anyone can share and curate content for it, and contribute to its growth and value by adding links or new content.

The launch of Corners expands The Sandbox’s ecosystem beyond gaming, as previously announced as part of The Sandbox 3.0 rollout, and into a broader distribution network of culture while introducing new utility for the SAND token.

Robby Yung, CEO of The Sandbox, said: “Corners is a great example of how partners can help extend the utility of the SAND token and support the continued evolution of The Sandbox ecosystem beyond gaming. By enabling curators to tokenize the content they love, Corners opens meaningful new opportunities for creativity and participation. We’re pleased to support products that build on our foundation and bring more communities into The Sandbox’s wider ecosystem.”

Corners deeply integrates the SAND token as its main utility token, powering platform activity. Curators can earn rewards for their activity and curation. Additionally, a portion of the platform’s activity is used to reward Corner Coin holders with the SAND token, promoting its distribution and use within the ecosystem.

The SAND token will also become available on Base through an initial liquidity pool on Aerodrome. This expansion will make the SAND token and The Sandbox ecosystem accessible beyond Ethereum and Polygon, offering a new on-ramp for on-chain communities and making it easier to move the SAND token across the crypto ecosystem.

Ahead of the full public rollout scheduled for early 2026, Corners is releasing a comprehensive “How to build your corner” guide on www.corners.market to provide additional details on getting started, understanding market price, transferrable digital assets, and more.

Early adopters who wish to discover and create their own corner can join the waitlist at www.corners.market.

About Corners

Corners explores a new paradigm for digital interaction on the Internet. On Corners, communities form around a collection of links, and every community becomes a valued community collection. Communities form around a topic, idea, or niche, and others can trade those markets, curate content, and contribute to the growth of the corner via comments and upvotes.

Corners is launched on Base, Coinbase’s layer 2 blockchain, and supported by The Sandbox and powered by the SAND token.

Strategy’s STRC Drop Shows The Risk Behind Bitcoin-Linked Credit Products

Strategy Inc.'s (formerly MicroStrategy) preferred stock, STRC, traded sharply below its $100 reference value during recent market stress, hitting an intraday low of $82.53. The company's CEO framed the drop as a "leverage flush"—forced selling by investors using borrowed money—rather than a fundamental default event. This distinction highlights that the selloff resulted from market mechanics and liquidity pressures, not missed payments by the issuer. The episode underscores the specific risks embedded in Bitcoin-linked credit products, which can behave differently from holding Bitcoin or common stock. As Bitcoin treasury strategies become more complex and financialized, instruments like preferred shares introduce additional layers of risk, including leverage, liquidity constraints, and sensitivity to Bitcoin's volatility. The STRC movement serves as a warning about the fragility of these structures in stressed markets, even when the underlying company remains solvent.

Australia’s High Court Hands ASIC Major Win In Block Earner Crypto Yield Case

Australia's High Court unanimously ruled in favor of the securities regulator ASIC in a case against crypto platform Block Earner. The court determined that Block Earner's historical 'Earner' fixed-yield product was a financial product and a derivative, requiring an Australian Financial Services Licence. This landmark decision establishes that crypto yield products promising structured returns can fall under existing financial services law, regardless of their digital asset nature. While the specific product is no longer offered, the ruling sets a significant precedent for how similar crypto investment and derivative-like offerings will be regulated in Australia. The case now returns to a lower court to determine penalties against Block Earner.

CPU Makes a Comeback to the Table, A $170 Billion "Power Seizure" Drama Begins

A new era is dawning for the server CPU (Central Processing Unit), driven by the shift from AI model training to large-scale reasoning and the rise of Agentic AI. This article explores how the CPU is reclaiming a central role in the AI data center. For years, the focus has been on the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) for AI training. However, as AI moves to the inference and Agent phase—where tasks involve complex, multi-step reasoning, tool calls, and data management—the workload balance is flipping. Studies show CPUs now handle over 70% of the workload in Agentic AI, up from 10-30% in training. This is because Agent tasks generate massive intermediate data (KV Cache) that exceeds GPU memory, forcing it to be offloaded to the CPU's larger, more scalable memory pools. This increased importance is translating into market changes. Major players are taking note: NVIDIA launched its first standalone CPU line, Vera, based on ARM architecture and optimized for Agent performance. AMD doubled its server CPU market forecast to over $1200 billion by 2030. Analyst reports project the total server CPU market could reach $1700 billion by 2030, with AI-driven demand being a primary driver. Furthermore, the classic ratio of CPUs to GPUs in AI servers is rapidly changing, converging from 1:8 toward 1:1 for Agent deployments. This surge in demand has led to a rare industry-wide price increase of 10-15% for server CPUs from Intel and AMD, breaking a decade-long trend of "more performance for the same price." Demand is bifurcating into high-core-count CPUs for in-rack GPU support and moderate-core CPUs for standalone Agent task orchestration. In China, this global trend presents an opportunity for domestic CPU manufacturers like Hygon (海光信息) and Huawei Kunpeng, who are bolstered by both growing AI infrastructure needs and national policies promoting technological self-reliance ("xin chuang"). The maturity of their software ecosystems is also accelerating, evidenced by faster adaptation to new AI models. In conclusion, the narrative is shifting from a GPU-centric view to one where CPU-GPU synergy is critical. The CPU is no longer a peripheral component but a performance-defining bottleneck and a key growth driver in the AI hardware stack, opening a massive new market estimated in the hundreds of billions of dollars.

TechFlow Intelligence: AMD AI Director Publicly Criticizes Claude Code for "Becoming Dumber and Lazier", Trump Claims Full Ceasefire in Hormuz But Strait Still Has 80 Unexploded Mines

TechFlow Intelligence Report: This daily digest covers key developments in AI, crypto, hardware, and geopolitics. In AI, SK Telecom faces US export control scrutiny over its partnership with Anthropic, while a Gemini user reports being misled in a scam scenario, sparking safety debates. China's Z.AI launches the GLM-5.2 model, rivaling Claude Opus without NVIDIA chips. In crypto, Bithumb lists ReProtocol, and Upbit delists KernelDAO. On the hardware front, MIT researchers build a custom OS to study chips, ASML denies US claims its advanced lithography machines are in China, and Amazon considers selling its in-house AI chips. Apple's future A21 Pro chip may use TSMC's latest N2P process. Major tech issues include 10,000 GitHub repositories distributing malware and Apple patching a critical eavesdropping flaw in Beats earbuds. US stocks rise, led by semiconductors, with Intel surging 10.6%, while SpaceX falls 3.5%. Geopolitically, despite a US-Iran deal, the Strait of Hormuz remains risky with ~80 uncleared mines, stalling 80M barrels of oil on standby tankers. Iran postpones Switzerland talks, and Trump calls the agreement an "unconditional surrender." The report highlights a contrast: temporary geopolitical calm versus the ongoing, fundamental restructuring of tech supply chains and chip independence.
