On April 14, the U.S. banking sector raised concerns about a report on stablecoin yields released by the White House, arguing that the conclusions of the report are based on flawed issues. The White House Council of Economic Advisers' research report states that banning stablecoin yields would have a negligible impact on bank lending, potentially increasing loans by only about $2.1 billion. Sayee Srinivasan, Chief Economist of the American Bankers Association, and Yikai Wang, Vice President, indicated that the core policy focus is whether allowing stablecoins to generate yields would encourage deposit outflows, particularly from community banks to larger institutions, thereby increasing financing costs and reducing local lending. The American Bankers Association acknowledged that the financial incentives to pursue high-yield stablecoins would lead households and businesses to move funds out of banks. Currently, negotiations are ongoing between the cryptocurrency and banking sectors regarding the provisions of a Senate bill, with the prohibition of interest payments on stablecoins being a key point of contention.

According to monitoring by 1M AI News, the Financial Times interviewed several OpenAI investors, revealing financial details amid the current competitive landscape between the two companies. Anthropic's annual revenue surged from $9 billion at the end of 2025 to $30 billion by the end of March this year, primarily driven by demand for programming tools, seemingly surpassing OpenAI's reported $25 billion in February. However, the two companies use different accounting methods: OpenAI's new Chief Revenue Officer, Denise Dresser, accused Anthropic in an internal memo sent to employees on Sunday of recording distribution revenue from Amazon and Google at full value, which she claimed inflated their revenue by about $8 billion. Anthropic responded that the company is the transaction entity and that cloud partners are merely distribution channels, asserting that full revenue recognition complies with standard accounting principles. Secondary market data reflects a more direct judgment: demand for Anthropic's stock has for the first time exceeded that for OpenAI, with buyers willing to pay a premium above OpenAI's valuation. Roy Luo, a partner at Iconiq Capital, stated bluntly, "In a winner-takes-all scenario between the top two, we made a choice and invested heavily in Anthropic." Iconiq has invested over $1 billion in Anthropic while holding a small stake in OpenAI. Another investor with holdings in both companies noted that to endorse OpenAI's last funding round (valued at $852 billion), one must assume its IPO valuation exceeds $1.2 trillion, while Anthropic's current valuation is only $380 billion, making it comparatively "cheaper." An early supporter of OpenAI described it as a "severely unfocused company," questioning why a consumer business with 1 billion users and an annual growth rate of 50-100% would seek to compete in the enterprise software market. OpenAI's CFO, Sarah Friar, denied claims that the company is losing investor support, stating that the recently completed $122 billion funding round was oversubscribed and set a record. On the infrastructure front, OpenAI disclosed to investors last week that it has secured 8 gigawatts of computing capacity, claiming that Anthropic will not reach this scale until the end of 2027. OpenAI's AI programming tool, Codex, has been designated as the core battleground for the enterprise market, with insiders revealing that its long-term priority may surpass that of ChatGPT. Jai Das, president of Sapphire Ventures, which does not hold stakes in either company, compared OpenAI to "Netscape of the AI era," referring to the internet pioneer that once dominated the browser market but was ultimately surpassed by Microsoft and acquired by AOL.

On April 14, Hyperliquid founder Jeff shared his growth experience in an interview with Colossus magazine, a subsidiary of Forbes. Jeff grew up between San Francisco and Palo Alto on the Redwood Coast with his sister. His parents, both Chinese immigrants, divorced when he was in third grade, and his father left the family. His mother, an accountant, worked overtime during tax season. Jeff recalled, 'I could see that some people were wealthier than us, but I never resented it. Going out to play wasn't expensive.' His school did not have an atmosphere of academic competition. Although his mother verbally pushed him, she never really forced him. Until his teenage years, no one pressured him to do anything. He spent his days playing outside, going to school, coming home, and playing some more. In eighth grade, a chance opportunity ignited his desire for learning. He then embarked on a path of academic excellence: in ninth grade, he self-studied and completed all competition problems, entering the American Mathematics Olympiad training camp (Top 50 in the U.S.), and at 18, he won a gold medal in the American Physics Olympiad, ranking 24th in the world. He then attended Harvard University on a full scholarship. In the winter of his junior year, he participated in an internship program hosted by Hudson River Trading, along with Scott Wu. A total of 10 interns were selected, including Alexandr Wang, who later founded Scale AI, and Jesse Zhang, who founded Decagon. The internship was conducted in the form of a three-week competition, where Wu and Jeff consistently took first and second place in each round.
