U.S. Republican Senator Kevin Cramer accepted an interview with POLITICO and publicly called for Jensen Huang to resign as CEO of NVIDIA. He believes that Huang's extramarital affair poses a serious potential blackmail risk, especially considering that NVIDIA holds highly sensitive AI chip technology. Cramer stated, "The risk of being blackmailed is just too great; I think he must go."Cramer is a member of the U.S. Senate Banking Committee, which is reviewing several bills aimed at strengthening export controls on advanced AI chips. He believes that while it is certainly possible for NVIDIA's board to initiate an internal investigation, it is far from enough. Earlier that day, Larry Kudlow, the former director of the White House National Economic Council during Trump's first term, also publicly urged on Fox Business, "Mr. Huang, resign now." He believes this is a reasonable action for Jensen Huang to take at this time.As the controversy escalates, the U.S. Congress is also accelerating its scrutiny of NVIDIA's chip exports. The three bills under consideration by the Senate Banking Committee involve strengthening export approvals for advanced chips, tracking the destination of chips, and restricting the export of certain semiconductor manufacturing equipment. These bills are vying to be included in the annual National Defense Authorization Act and have not yet been fully passed.

The relevant work will commence in January 2027, with the aforementioned three EU institutions participating as observers.The working group will develop technical and market standards to assist businesses in holding and settling tokenized securities across different Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) platforms, ensuring that these platforms can be compatible with existing financial systems.According to its scope of responsibilities, the working group plans to produce the first set of standards by early 2028.

Linda Xie, co-founder of Scalar Capital and former product lead at Coinbase, published a review of her personal angel investment situation over the past 10 years, stating that she has invested in a total of 50 companies, with 60% in the cryptocurrency sector, 10% in the AI sector, and the remainder distributed across other industries.Currently, there have been 6 investments that have returned more than the initial investment, all from the cryptocurrency sector, with 5 coming from token warrants and 1 from equity, but none of these covered the entire investment portfolio individually. The highest paper return on investment, which far exceeds other projects, comes from an AI company; if it can be monetized, its return could theoretically cover the entire portfolio's investment.Additionally, 12 companies have officially shut down or exited through talent acquisition, with 7 investments returning zero, 4 returning 80% to 90% of the initial investment, and 1 result pending. The above statistics only cover her personal equity investments and do not include the funds under her management or directly held cryptocurrency assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.

ARK Invest founder Cathie Wood stated that she does not believe the results of the U.S. midterm elections will hinder the AI revolution. She believes that the uncertainty in the market is understandable, but the economy is on a stronger growth trajectory than most investors realize.She noted that the stock market began to factor in the possibility of an extended war in Iran and expectations of a Democratic sweep in the elections as early as May and June, and the rise in oil and gasoline prices has also increased the cost of living pressure on consumers. Voters concerned about household finances made the congressional election results appear more conservative than the headlines suggested.Cathie Wood expects that data center construction companies will pay more attention to local community concerns and provide and highlight more community benefits, including lowering property taxes, increasing high-paying jobs, promoting commercial development, and funding schools and cultural facilities.She stated that the productivity gains brought by AI are accelerating and expects these benefits to translate into higher wages, stronger profit margins, more investment, and lower prices, helping to alleviate cost of living pressures. The market is currently only beginning to experience the impact of this technological revolution.
