Jingliang Su, a Chinese national, has been sentenced to 46 months in prison for laundering nearly $37 million from cryptocurrency scams targeting American citizens. According to NS3.AI, the fraudulent scheme involved persuading victims to transfer funds into accounts managed by the scammers. These funds were then laundered through shell companies and converted into Tether (USDT). Last year, losses from cryptocurrency scams escalated to over $17 billion, with AI-driven impersonation scams witnessing a dramatic increase of 1400%.

Bitcoin miners in the United States have long faced challenges in gaining community acceptance despite having access to affordable power and industrial land. According to Cointelegraph, a similar scenario is unfolding for AI hyperscalers and developers as they rush to establish power-intensive data centers. These projects are encountering local resistance due to concerns over electricity demand, infrastructure costs, and environmental impact, as highlighted in the latest Miner Mag newsletter. The situation mirrors the experiences of Bitcoin mining projects, which often promised job creation and increased local tax revenue but failed to deliver, leading to opposition in various regions. AI data centers are now facing comparable scrutiny, particularly in states like Texas, Georgia, Illinois, and Mississippi, where residents and officials are questioning the long-term implications of hosting such energy-intensive infrastructure. Miner Mag notes that local governments and residents nationwide are no longer passively accepting assurances that AI infrastructure will differ from previous projects. In response, some communities are taking steps to temporarily halt new AI data center developments while officials review zoning regulations, backup generation plans, and the impact on local infrastructure. Industry data cited by Miner Mag indicates that approximately $64 billion in U.S. data center projects have been delayed or blocked due to local opposition. Companies such as Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and Google-parent Alphabet have faced backlash against their proposed expansion plans, as shown by Data Center Watchdog. Amid growing local resistance, companies like Microsoft and OpenAI are adopting more community-focused infrastructure strategies to address the rising costs of power generation and grid upgrades linked to their data center projects. OpenAI has committed to covering its own energy costs for its expanding AI operations, signaling a shift toward greater accountability as communities and regulators scrutinize AI-driven electricity demand. Miner Mag points out that this approach is reminiscent of the Bitcoin mining industry, where companies often had to renegotiate power contracts and invest in mitigation measures to demonstrate community benefits. Simultaneously, Bitcoin miners have been transitioning toward AI and high-performance computing workloads for several years. Companies such as Hut 8, MARA Holdings, Riot Platforms, TeraWulf, and HIVE Digital Technologies have pursued this shift in response to increasing competition in the mining sector and tighter margins following the 2024 Bitcoin halving. The pressure in the Bitcoin mining industry has prompted more companies to pivot toward AI and high-performance computing.

Stocks of cryptocurrency mining companies with interests in AI infrastructure experienced significant gains following reports of a $20 billion funding round for AI startup Anthropic. According to NS3.AI, Iris Energy and Cipher Mining saw their shares rise by over 12%, while Hut 8 and TeraWulf each recorded gains of approximately 8%. This market reaction underscores increasing investor confidence in the merging of cryptocurrency mining and AI technologies.

美国总统特朗普表示，他认为美元贬值幅度并不大，称美元“表现良好”，并预计货币价值会有波动。当记者问他是否担心美元贬值，特朗普称：“不，我认为美元表现很好。我希望回归自身应有的水平，这是合理的做法。”特朗普还暗示他可以操控美元汇率，他说：“我可以让它像悠悠球一样涨跌。”但他把这种情况描述为不利的结果，并将其比作雇佣不必要的工人来粉饰就业数据，同时批评日本试图贬值本国货币。美元指数 DXY 在特朗普评论时先小幅拉升，随后大幅下跌超 50 点，创下 2022 年 2 月以来的新低，非美货币趁势拉高，离岸人民币兑美元一度逼近升破 6.93 关口，黄金续刷新高至 5180 美元/盎司之上。(金十)

General Motors has announced impressive fourth-quarter earnings per share of $2.51, surpassing market expectations and propelling its stock to a record high. According to NS3.AI, the company revealed a $6 billion stock buyback plan and noted enhanced profit guidance as a result of tariff offsets. GM's stock experienced a 9% surge, trading close to its 52-week high and exceeding its 200-day moving average. Wall Street analysts are forecasting a 26% increase over the current stock price.

Anthropic, an artificial intelligence company, is planning to raise $20 billion, doubling its initial target. According to NS3.AI, this move has positively impacted market sentiment. The increase in AI investment has coincided with a significant rise in Bitcoin miner activity. This development underscores growing investor confidence in technology sectors, indirectly benefiting cryptocurrency mining operations.

Bitcoin's performance in early 2026 has been marked by a notable contrast between weekday gains and weekend losses. According to NS3.AI, the cryptocurrency has appreciated by 3.21% during weekdays but has seen a decline of 3.17% over weekends. While traditional hard assets such as gold and silver have experienced significant increases, Bitcoin has acted more like a risk asset rather than a safe haven, particularly affected by liquidity dips during weekends. The crucial factor for Bitcoin to regain its status as a macro hedge is its ability to maintain value over weekends and attract steady institutional investments, particularly through ETF demand.

Crypto futures markets have seen substantial liquidations, with $100 million liquidated in the past hour. According to NS3.AI, the total liquidations over the last 24 hours have amounted to $284 million. This reflects a period of notable market volatility affecting leveraged positions.
