Özet

HIVE Digital Technologies has become the first Bitcoin and AI infrastructure company to list on a Latin American exchange, debuting on the Colombian Stock Exchange under the ticker HIVECO. This listing provides access to investors across the Andean market system, which includes Colombia, Peru, and Chile. The move reflects the sector’s expansion as Bitcoin mining and high-performance computing (HPC) companies seek broader capital market opportunities. HIVE, which already trades in North America and Europe, has existing operations in Latin America, including hydroelectric-powered data centers in Paraguay. The company, like other major Bitcoin miners, has been diversifying into AI and HPC due to compressed mining margins following the 2024 Bitcoin halving, rising costs, and falling revenues. This strategic shift highlights the growing importance of diversification in the current challenging mining economy.

HIVE Digital Technologies has debuted on the Colombian Stock Exchange under the ticker HIVECO, becoming the first Bitcoin and AI infrastructure company to trade publicly on a Latin American exchange. The move marks another sign of the sector’s expansion as Bitcoin miners and high-performance computing (HPC) companies push deeper into global capital markets.

Announced on Thursday, the listing makes HIVE available to investors across the Andean market system, which links the exchanges of Colombia, Peru and Chile.

For a region traditionally dominated by energy and natural-resources issuers, the addition of a digital infrastructure company offers exposure to a growing sector that sits at the intersection of high-performance computing, renewable power and Bitcoin (BTC).

Colombia’s exchange is one of the Andean marketplace’s most institutionally connected platforms, giving HIVE access to a broader, more integrated investor base than is typical elsewhere in Latin America.

HIVE shares are already traded in North America and Europe, including on the TSX Venture Exchange, the Nasdaq and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.

On the Nasdaq, HIVE shares slipped more than 1% on Thursday, though they remain up for the year.

HIVE’s Latin American footprint grows as Bitcoin mining economics tighten

HIVE already has an operational footprint in Latin America, having developed Tier I data centers in Paraguay powered entirely by hydroelectricity. The company began expanding its presence there in late 2024 and completed the acquisition of its Yguazú site in March of this year, as previously reported by Cointelegraph.

HIVE was among the early Bitcoin miners to pivot toward AI and high-performance computing as mining economics tightened and demand for GPU infrastructure surged.

Other major public miners, including Core Scientific, Hut 8, Riot Platforms, TeraWulf and Marathon Holdings have also expanded into AI and HPC workloads in varying degrees.

While these companies remain active in Bitcoin mining, the sector is operating in one of its toughest environments to date. Industry research describes current miner margins as historically compressed, with revenue at “structural lows” amid falling hash price and rising operating costs.

Much of the pressure stems from the 2024 Bitcoin halving, which reduced block rewards to 3.125 BTC and effectively halved mining revenue. Higher electricity costs and ongoing equipment expenses have added further strain, making diversification into AI and HPC increasingly important for many miners.

Upbit Rebalances 864B SHIB In Internal Wallet Move

South Korean cryptocurrency exchange Upbit moved a total of 864 billion SHIB (worth approximately $4 million) between its internal wallet addresses. The activity, involving transfers of 384 billion SHIB outbound and 480 billion SHIB inbound, occurred following a 36% SHIB price rally. On-chain data indicates this was a routine internal wallet rebalancing operation by the exchange, not a sell-off or liquidation event. The article cautions that while large on-chain transfers are highly visible, they require proper context and wallet labeling to interpret correctly. In this case, the movement between known Upbit addresses does not inherently signal a change in market supply or selling pressure for SHIB.

Can Generative Models Finally Be Trained End-to-End? The Core Is a For Loop

This article introduces a novel training paradigm for generative models called Explorative Modeling (XM), which enables true end-to-end training. Traditionally, powerful generative models like autoregressive and diffusion models are not trained end-to-end. They are trained to predict a single small step but require iterative multi-step sampling for inference. This "exposure bias" leads to error accumulation and limits performance. The core challenge XM addresses is "mode blurring." In generative tasks, a single input (e.g., "generate a dog") corresponds to many valid outputs (multiple modes). Standard training objectives like reconstruction loss force the model to average these modes, producing unrealistic, blurry outputs. To avoid this, existing models break generation into many small, almost deterministic steps, sacrificing end-to-end training. XM tackles this by restructuring the training loop itself. Its key insight is to amplify "generative expressivity." For each training input, instead of generating one sample, the model generates K candidate outputs. Only the candidate closest to the real data is used for computing the loss and updating the model via backpropagation. This simple "best-of-K" mechanism is implemented as a short for-loop. By exploring multiple possibilities, the model learns to distribute its guesses across different modes rather than collapsing to their uninformative average. The paper demonstrates that "exploration" acts as a new, powerful scaling axis. Gains from XM increase with model size, data scale, and compute. Experiments show improvements in FID scores for image generation and significant efficiency gains, sometimes outperforming larger models without exploration. When pushed to the limit, XM enables fully single-step, end-to-end generative models. In robotics tasks, an "Explorative Policy" matched the performance of a 100-step Diffusion Policy with a single forward pass, drastically improving inference speed. While the best-of-K concept is not entirely new, the authors' contribution lies in formally understanding it as a direct method to boost generative expressivity without fragmenting the generation process. This work suggests that as models scale, enhancing exploration during training may become crucial for overcoming fundamental performance bottlenecks.

A Maximum of 20 Submissions Per Person? DeepMind Researcher Satirically 'Petitions' Against ICLR's New Rule

The International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR) 2027 has introduced a new submission rule limiting authors to a maximum of 20 papers per conference. This policy, announced due to a 68% surge in submissions for ICLR 2026 that strained the review system, aims to ensure fair and informative peer review. Google DeepMind researcher Dan Roy responded with a sarcastic petition on X, calling the 20-paper cap "absurd" and claiming it would slow AI progress. His post mockingly argued that AI agents can now produce incremental research and that large language models (LLMs) already handle all reviewing, so output should be maximized. This satire critiques the broader trend of AI's role in academia, referencing a 2025 study that found about 21% of ICLR 2026 reviews were likely fully AI-generated. Roy's underlying point questions whether simply capping submissions addresses the systemic issue of AI potentially flooding conferences with agent-written papers and AI-assisted reviews. The debate highlights tensions between managing submission volume and maintaining research quality as AI tools become pervasive.

Coldcard Vulnerability Leads to $89 Million Theft, Sparking Largest On-Chain Migration Since FTX Collapse

A security vulnerability in Coldcard hardware wallets led to the theft of 1,367.05 BTC (approx. $89 million) from 4,585 addresses, according to Galaxy Research. The flaw, caused by insufficient randomness in seed phrase generation for specific firmware versions, triggered a massive migration of funds as users moved assets to new, secure wallets. This event caused the largest on-chain movement of small Bitcoin transactions since the FTX collapse, distorting key market indicators like active addresses and exchange deposits, and significantly dampening market sentiment. The incident also highlighted challenges in cybersecurity investigations, as researchers reported that safety guardrails on mainstream U.S. AI models hindered the analysis of attack patterns, forcing them to use an open-source Chinese AI model for forensic work. This underscores a dilemma in balancing AI security restrictions with the need for rapid response in tracing stolen crypto assets.

Annual Salary of Millions Competing for Electricians, Meta Rushes to Open Its Own Technical School

The AI boom is facing an unexpected bottleneck: a severe shortage of skilled construction workers and electricians. As tech giants like Meta, OpenAI, and Alphabet race to build massive data centers—such as OpenAI's $16 billion "Stargate" project—they are hitting a critical labor wall. The U.S. needs an estimated 130,000 more electricians, 240,000 construction workers, and 150,000 supervisors by 2030 for AI infrastructure alone, but tens of thousands of electrician jobs go unfilled each year. While AI companies offer high premiums, with electricians earning up to $280,000 annually, worker scarcity still causes massive losses—delays on a single project can cost $14.2 million per month. The complexity of building AI data centers, which require immense power (equivalent to powering hundreds of thousands of homes), sophisticated electrical systems, and advanced liquid cooling solutions, demands highly skilled technicians who are in short supply. To combat this, companies are investing heavily in training. Meta has committed $115 million to a free training school offering tuition, housing, and stipends, targeting 5,000 new workers. OpenAI is partnering with unions to secure skilled labor. These efforts are paying off, with a significant rise in Gen Z interest in trade schools over college. However, the power demands are staggering. AI data centers are driving a rapid surge in electricity consumption, projected to account for up to 12% of U.S. power use by 2028 and raising costs for consumers. Furthermore, the construction boom is project-based, leading to a potential future glut of trained workers once building peaks, which could depress wages industry-wide. The race for AI supremacy now depends as much on skilled hands as on advanced chips.
