Özet

Galaxy, a digital asset management firm, is expanding into the Middle East by establishing a new office and entity in Abu Dhabi under the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM). The move aims to strengthen existing partnerships and tap into the region's growing financial hub, which is home to sophisticated investors. This expansion follows Galaxy's strong Q3 2025 performance, with $505 million net income and $3.2 billion in equity. The UAE has recently approved several crypto firms, including Binance, Bybit, and stablecoin issuers like Tether and Circle, further solidifying its role as a key market for digital assets.

Galaxy, the digital asset management and infrastructure company, announced an upcoming office and a new arm in Abu Dhabi as part of its push into the Middle East.

In a Wednesday notice, Galaxy said it would establish an entity under the registration authority of the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), the area’s international financial center. According to Galaxy founder and CEO Mike Novogratz, the move was part of a strategy to expand the company’s existing partnerships and operations.

“The Middle East is a rapidly growing financial hub that is home to some of the world’s most sophisticated investors and innovators,” said Galaxy managing director Bouchra Darwazah. “It has become a particularly influential region for our investors, clients, and portfolio companies, and we believe this office will help establish new opportunities as a leading global digital assets investment and infrastructure firm.”

The Middle East move followed Galaxy reporting a net income of $505 million in the third quarter of 2025, with $3.2 billion in equity. Since 2018, the company has been a major player in staying on top of crypto investments, including its plan to participate in a $1.65 billion Solana (SOL) treasury fund with Cantor Fitzgerald, Multicoin Capital and Jump Crypto.

UAE greenlighted several crypto companies looking to Middle East markets

Over the past year, numerous crypto companies have received regulatory approval to operate in key Middle East markets, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi, such as exchanges Binance and Bybit.

Some stablecoin issuers have had similar success. In November, ADGM cleared regulated companies to deploy Ripple’s stablecoin, Ripple USD (RLUSD). This week, the financial center also recognized Tether’s USDt (USDT) as an “accepted fiat-referenced token” and granted Circle regulatory approval to operate as a financial service provider, paving the way for its USDC (USDC) stablecoin.

US Stock Storage Fever Spreads to Crypto for the Third Time, VVV Leads 'AI Data Infrastructure' Sector Gains

U.S. stock storage rally spreads to crypto for the third time, with VVV leading the 'AI data infrastructure' sector. On May 11, Venice Token (VVV) surged 17.63% with $65.05M volume, followed by Chainbase, SQD, and Vana, rising 5-8%. This mirrors gains in U.S. storage stocks like SanDisk and Micron. The crypto AI narrative is shifting. The initial wave (May 6-7) saw pure storage tokens like FIL, AR, and STORJ rise, driven by spillover from the U.S. storage chip boom. The second wave saw broader DePIN sector gains. The current third wave has moved beyond pure storage to broader "AI infrastructure." VVV, a decentralized AI inference platform, leads due to its own catalysts like a token burn mechanism and partnership news, alongside the broader market trend. Notably, traditional storage tokens showed minimal gains (<4%) on May 11, indicating the rally is becoming more selective, focusing on projects with specific narratives like AI data or compute. The pattern suggests the sector rally may be in a later stage, with sustainability depending on whether the U.S. storage chip boom continues.

Understanding Hash in One Article: The "Browser Miner" on Ethereum

Hash is an Ethereum-based ERC-20 token described as a "browser-minable post-quantum token." Its key features include enabling browser-based GPU mining without specialized hardware, a fixed supply cap of 21 million tokens, immutable and permissionless smart contracts with no team allocation or pre-mining, and an emphasis on post-quantum security using Keccak256 hashing. The mining mechanism is a simplified on-chain proof-of-work where miners solve unique challenges tied to their wallet address. Key design elements prevent answer theft, with epochs resetting every 100 blocks (~20 minutes) and a per-block minting limit. Emission follows a Bitcoin-like halving schedule every 100,000 mints, starting at 100 tokens per mint. Projections suggest all tokens could be mined within approximately 294 days if a target rate of one mint per minute is sustained. Hash emphasizes "post-quantum" security by leveraging hash-based primitives like Keccak256, which are considered more resistant to quantum attacks compared to elliptic-curve cryptography. While not a fully post-quantum asset, it aligns with Ethereum's broader post-quantum research narrative. The project completed its Genesis sale at $0.03 and began trading on Uniswap, with its price reaching around $0.19. The initial circulating supply is small, with 5% sold in Genesis and 5% allocated to liquidity. The majority (47.6% of total supply) is allocated to early-stage mining, leading to a front-loaded emission schedule. This structure, combined with low initial liquidity, makes Hash a high-volatility, high-risk project dependent on sustained miner participation and market demand to absorb new supply.

OpenAI's Largest Internal Wealth Creation: 600 People Cash Out a Total of $6.6 Billion, 75 Take Home the Maximum $30 Million Each

A Wall Street Journal report reveals OpenAI's unprecedented pre-IPO wealth creation. In a single employee stock sale last October, over 600 current and former employees sold shares, collectively cashing out approximately $6.6 billion. Due to high investor demand, the company tripled the individual sale cap to $30 million, with about 75 employees selling the maximum amount. This event represents the largest such transaction in tech industry history for a private company. OpenAI's valuation was $500 billion for this tender offer. Employees with over two years of tenure were eligible, allowing many post-ChatGPT hires their first liquidity event. The company's stock has reportedly grown over 100-fold in seven years. Following a restructuring, employees collectively hold about 26% of OpenAI. The scale of executive wealth is also staggering. In court testimony related to Elon Musk's lawsuit, President and co-founder Greg Brockman confirmed his OpenAI stake is worth around $30 billion. Analysis indicates about 165 current and former employees hold a combined ~$164.9 billion in equity, averaging nearly $1 billion per person in paper wealth. OpenAI's per-employee stock-based compensation is estimated to be 34 times the average of major tech firms before their IPOs. OpenAI continues its rapid ascent, closing a $122 billion funding round at an $852 billion valuation in March. With monthly revenue hitting $2 billion, over 900 million weekly ChatGPT users, and plans for a potential trillion-dollar IPO in late 2026, this wealth-creation engine shows no signs of stopping.

An In-Depth Analysis of the Reasons Behind the Recent Surge in the Memory Storage Industry

"Understanding the Recent Boom in the Memory Industry" summarizes the key structural shift in the memory sector driven by AI. Traditionally, the memory industry (DRAM, NAND) has been highly cyclical, with prices driven by inventory cycles and consumer electronics demand, which can be deferred. However, AI has fundamentally changed the demand structure. AI workloads create continuous, non-deferrable demand for high-bandwidth memory (HBM) due to GPU memory bottlenecks. This high-margin HBM production is prioritized by major manufacturers like Samsung, SK hynix, and Micron, structurally reducing the supply of traditional DRAM and NAND. Consequently, the market is transitioning from a spot-based model to a contract-based allocation system. HBM supply is reportedly booked through 2026, leading to spot shortages and sharp price increases for other memory types. Delivery lead times have also extended dramatically. Pricing power is shifting from the open market to those with long-term contracts. Primary beneficiaries are HBM-leading suppliers and large hyperscalers (Microsoft, AWS, Google) that can lock in future supply. Key risks to this "AI supercycle" include a potential slowdown in AI capital expenditure, disruptive new memory architectures, or a return to aggressive industry capacity expansion, which could reintroduce cyclicality.

BlackRock Expands Tokenized Finance Push With New Treasury Fund Filings

BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, has intensified its push into tokenized finance by filing with the SEC to create a new fund. Named the BlackRock Daily Reinvestment Stablecoin Reserve Vehicle, the proposed fund would invest in cash, U.S. Treasuries, and repurchase agreements. It would issue "OnChain Shares" using a permissioned system linked to public blockchains, with Securitize Transfer Agent LLC maintaining ownership records. In a separate move, BlackRock also filed to establish an onchain share class for its existing BlackRock Select Treasury Based Liquidity Fund. For this, the transfer agent BNY Mellon outlined plans to use Ethereum's ERC-20 standards, combining blockchain data with offchain identification. These filings represent a significant expansion into tokenization, the process of creating digital tokens for traditional assets like funds. Advocates believe this technology can enhance transparency, enable 24/7 trading, and speed up settlement times.
