On April 13, renowned short-seller and founder of Muddy Waters, Carson Block, issued a startling warning: as AI disrupts the market, bets against the U.S. stock market will be "smooth sailing." Carson Block stated that AI could trigger a market shock greater than the 2008-2009 global financial crisis. For those short-sellers who have endured years of "hard times" in the U.S. stock market, this undoubtedly opens the door to profit once again. Block noted that with the rapid proliferation of AI, the economy and markets will face profound impacts in the coming years, as turmoil in the job market will inevitably affect government finances and financial stability. "In the medium to long term, there will be severe economic and market consequences, as well as financial issues for governments, which I believe will make the global financial crisis seem trivial in comparison." He added, "As a short-seller, this will be an excellent opportunity to thrive," comparing it to the substantial profits earned by short-sellers who bet on the market crash in 2008. In recent years, many prominent short-sellers have retreated and closed their firms, including Jim Chanos, who shorted Enron before its collapse in 2001, and Nathan Anderson of Hindenburg Research. Block's prediction signifies that after years of struggle, U.S. stock short-sellers may be on the verge of a turnaround.

According to 1M AI News monitoring, Meta's internal AI usage leaderboard, Claudeonomics, was taken down about a week after its launch. The Information reported that the creator voluntarily removed the leaderboard, rather than at the request of Meta's management. Before its removal, the leaderboard showed that the total token consumption by all Meta employees over 30 days had increased from 60.2 trillion a week ago to 73.7 trillion. The top individual user consumed 328.5 billion tokens, equivalent to nearly $2 million at public pricing. The leaderboard sparked internal controversy. One employee wrote in an internal forum, "I suggest everyone roughly estimate the energy consumption represented by this. If it weren't so sad, it would be a joke." Meanwhile, various manipulation methods have come to light: some engineers had AI agents continuously generate large amounts of meaningless small code submissions, with each submission counting as token consumption; other employees developed transcription bots that recorded meetings to take notes, with the bot's token consumption attributed to the creator. Similar behavior has also been observed within Amazon, where a team wrote scripts to make each conversation with the AI programming tool Cline appear to consume ten times the tokens, leading the team to rank high in their department's usage until Amazon closed the loophole earlier this year. Although the leaderboard has been removed, Meta continues to track employee and team token usage through the official dashboard AI Insights, and the performance evaluation system Checkpoint includes token usage as one of its assessment data points. Some low-usage employees privately expressed concerns about not being seen as 'AI native.'

On April 13, according to CryptoQuant analyst oro_crypto's report on April 12, Bitcoin has confirmed a break from the bear market. The recent rebound (from $66,000 to $72,000) is entirely driven by leveraged futures funds, lacking support from spot buying. The market has officially entered a bear market/correction phase, with a high probability of a price retracement to the starting point of this rally (between $66,000 and $68,000). If it falls below this range, it may further test the strong support level of $60,000 to $63,000, potentially triggering a chain liquidation.

On April 13, Washington Post columnist David Ignatius stated, "Trump's blockade is undoubtedly a means of applying pressure, but its core is not military action. Trump does not crave further armed conflict. He is well aware that the potential gains from war are limited, while the 'tail risks' (extreme risks) are extremely high. Once a ground offensive is initiated... it could drag the U.S. back into a quagmire."

According to monitoring by 1M AI News, Meta is developing an AI version of CEO Mark Zuckerberg to replace him in interactions with employees. The Financial Times cites informed sources reporting that this project is part of Meta's broader initiative to create realistic AI 3D characters capable of real-time conversations with users, with Zuckerberg's AI avatar recently prioritized. Zuckerberg himself is personally involved in the training and testing of this AI character. The character is being trained based on his mannerisms, speaking style, public statements, and his latest thoughts on company strategy, and once completed, it could provide dialogue and feedback to employees. Meta has over 70,000 employees worldwide, and an AI character that can simulate the CEO's style could theoretically extend his 'presence' throughout the organization. This project is one of the outcomes of Meta's investment of billions of dollars in AI development over the past year. Zuckerberg previously defined the company's goal as creating 'personal superintelligence' to close the gap with OpenAI and Google in the cutting-edge AI field.

June 23 (Huobi) -The Bitcoin codebase has been updated to avoid potential issues with a new member being added to std::allocator in C++23. The issue was discovered by Microsoft and will be reverted before it ships. The update serves as a reminder that giving the C++ Standard Committee control of the public interface of a type can lead to breakages, and suggests that other types such as zero_after_free_allocator should also be considered for similar updates.
