Трамп заявил, что Илон Маск может получить кресло в кабинете министров

Ну что ж, похоже, мир политики и технологий снова закрутился в причудливом танце. Дональд Трамп (Donald Trump), этот неутомимый мастер эпатажа, решил подбросить в котел предвыборной кампании новую порцию острых специй.

Республиканский кандидат в президенты США заявил, что «определенно рассмотрел бы» возможность назначить Илона Маска (Elon Musk) в свой кабинет министров, если одержит победу над Камалой Харрис (Kamala Harris) в ноябре. Вот так новость! Неужели мы увидим создателя Tesla за штурвалом целого министерства?

Это заявление прозвучало в интервью Reuters 19 августа, после того как Трамп и Маск провели беседу в соцсети X 13 августа. Правда, разговор задержался на 30-40 минут из-за того, что Маск назвал «массированной DDoS-атакой» на платформу. Впрочем, бывшие сотрудники X сомневаются в правдивости этого заявления.

Интересно, что Маск не сразу прыгнул в лагерь Трампа. В июле 2022 года он даже советовал бывшему президенту «повесить шляпу на гвоздь и уплыть в закат». Но после покушения на Трампа в июле этого года Маск внезапно выразил ему поддержку. Вот такой политический кульбит!

Трамп, в свою очередь, не остался в долгу. На митинге 3 августа он заявил: «Я за электромобили. У меня нет выбора, потому что Илон решительно поддержал меня». Ох уж эта политическая любовь, горячая, как перегретый двигатель Tesla!

А теперь — пара штрихов к портрету этого неожиданного альянса:

  • Ходят слухи, что Маск собирается жертвовать $45 000 000 ежемесячно на кампанию Трампа. Сам Илон отрицает эту сумму, утверждая, что его пожертвования будут «на гораздо более низком уровне».
  • Трамп, кстати, вернулся в X после долгого отсутствия. Помните, как его забанили в январе 2021 года после штурма Капитолия? Теперь он снова там, постит свои фотографии из полицейского участка. Вот это камбэк!

До выборов осталось около 77 дней, и опросы показывают, что Трамп и Харрис идут ноздря в ноздрю. Кто знает, может быть, скоро мы увидим Илона Маска, выступающего с трибуны Белого дома?

Citi Research Report Analysis: U.S. Proposed Ban on Chinese Optical Modules Has No Substantial Progress, Short-term Enforcement Faces Supply Constraints

Citi Report Analysis: U.S. Proposed Ban on Chinese Optical Modules Lacks Substantive Progress, Faces Supply Bottlenecks in Short Term. Reuters reported on August 4th that the U.S. government and FCC are considering a ban on Chinese optical modules. Citi's August 9th report clarifies that optical modules are not listed on any effective FCC ban. The FCC's Order 26-50 established two restricted list mechanisms (based on manufacturer and production location), but optical modules were only mentioned once, as an example in a disclosure requirement, not as a restricted product. The reported ban remains at a proposal stage. Citi estimates Chinese suppliers provide 60-70% of high-speed optical modules for U.S. hyperscalers. Non-Chinese suppliers cannot fill this gap in the short term, making the immediate implementation of a genuine ban unlikely. Future regulatory paths could be manufacturer-based (least likely), location-based covering all offshore production (strictest), or location-based covering only China (more feasible but with unresolved definitions). A ban would pressure U.S. AI infrastructure, conflicting with stated policy goals. Citi sees low near-term implementation probability, with the issue potentially becoming a negotiation chip in bilateral talks. U.S. domestic capacity build-out is a key long-term variable. Among Chinese companies, XSENS and Dongshan Precision have the highest U.S. exposure, while Tianfu Communication, as a passive component supplier, is relatively insulated. Citi maintains Buy ratings on all three with respective price targets. The conclusion is that Chinese modules are currently irreplaceable in the U.S. AI supply chain, creating a longer timeline for potential restrictions than the market may expect.

Truth Social Parent Company Records Quarterly Loss of $238 Million: $190 Million Lost on Crypto Holdings, Announces Tightened Treasury Strategy

Trump Media & Technology Group (NASDAQ: DJT), parent company of Truth Social, reported a Q2 2026 net loss of $238.1 million. A significant portion of this loss, $190.4 million, stemmed from unrealized losses on its digital asset and equity securities holdings, primarily due to Bitcoin price declines. Despite the massive paper loss, the company increased its Bitcoin holdings in July, acquiring approximately 4,700 more BTC. Its total Bitcoin holdings now stand near 14,139 BTC, valued at roughly $890.5 million as of July 31st, making it a core part of the company's ~$1.9 billion in financial assets. Quarterly revenue was only $1.7 million. The company announced a move toward a "more disciplined" framework for managing its digital asset treasury, aiming to manage volatility while retaining long-term exposure. It will also shift more resources back to its core media businesses like Truth Social. Its strategy has involved complex financial maneuvers like options trading, lending, and staking Bitcoin. Key future developments include a planned merger with fusion energy company TAE Technologies in Q4 2026 and growth of its new Truth API data licensing revenue stream.

Lead Analyst Claims Bitcoin is at a Critical Stage: 'We are at the Bear Market Bottom, What Happens Next…'

Renowned cryptocurrency analyst Benjamin Cowen, in his latest analysis video, examined recent events and historical cycles in the Bitcoin market. Noting Bitcoin's trading range of $64,000 to $65,000, Cowen stated that market dynamics and investor interest show similarities to past cycles, suggesting the upcoming period marks a critical turning point. Cowen observed a significant decline in public interest and investor enthusiasm for the crypto market, with social risk metrics falling to 0.2, far below levels seen four years ago. He added that market volatility has notably decreased, and a sense of distrust prevails among investors, drawing parallels to the ends of bear markets in 2018 and 2022. Historical data indicates Bitcoin markets typically bottom in summer months, followed by a period of stagnation with low volatility, implying a major move could occur in the year's final quarter. However, Cowen noted on-chain indicators like the MVRV Z-Score have not yet signaled a definitive bottom. Cowen believes an event in the coming weeks could shake the market, potentially triggering a final sell-off wave. Such an event, he argues, would bring investors back and pave the way for a new bull cycle. He predicts October as the most likely bottoming period, while acknowledging September or November are also possible, advising crypto users to remain cautious and prepared for a decisive market moment.

South Korea drops Travel Rule threshold for crypto transfers

South Korea has eliminated the threshold for applying its crypto Travel Rule, now requiring compliance for all transfers between registered Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs), regardless of transaction value. This move, approved by the Cabinet, aims to prevent users from circumventing the rule by splitting large transfers into smaller amounts below the previous 1 million won (approx. $700) limit. All receiving platforms must now obtain and verify sender and recipient information, with the authority to request missing data or reject transactions. Additionally, the amendments introduce stricter Anti-Money Laundering (AML) rules for transfers involving overseas exchanges and personal wallets. Domestic VASPs must assess and manage risks based on the counterparty, prohibiting transactions deemed high-risk. For transfers of at least 10 million won involving foreign entities or personal wallets, platforms must establish their own suspicious transaction monitoring systems. The regulations also strengthen VASP registration requirements, including standards for financial health, internal controls, and infrastructure. While the expanded Travel Rule takes effect six months after the decree's promulgation, existing providers have an additional year to comply with some new operational requirements.

Bitcoin Community in Uproar: Deciphering the New Scaling War Sparked by BIP-110

On August 10, Luke Dashjr, a long-time Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP) editor and co-founder of Ocean mining pool, was removed from the BIP editing team for bypassing discussion protocols and preemptively assigning a number to BIP-110, a controversial soft fork proposal he helped draft. The conflict stems from Bitcoin Core's version 30 release in October 2025, which removed the default 83-byte limit on OP_RETURN, a field used for embedding non-transaction data. In response, BIP-110 aimed to enforce this limit as a consensus rule. It controversially lowered the activation threshold for miners to 55% and included a mandatory activation clause, causing significant community backlash. Major mining pools like Foundry USA and AntPool did not support it, with public criticism from figures like F2Pool's Wang Chun and Michael Saylor, who argued it compromised Bitcoin's neutrality. On August 8, at block height 961,632, nodes running the BIP-110 patch rejected the main chain block, causing a chain split. The minority chain, supported by only about 2.53% of the network's hash rate, produced just one additional block before stalling. The main chain quickly outpaced it by over 240 blocks. No major exchanges have supported the minority chain. The event highlighted Bitcoin's governance reality: while rules can be proposed by a few, ultimate authority lies with the economic majority—miners willing to expend hash power and users/exchanges recognizing a chain's validity. Following the failed split, BIP-110 proponents, including Luke Dashjr, have begun discussing a change to the proof-of-work algorithm to create a separate coin, though this remains in early discussion stages.
