On the prediction market platform Polymarket, the market regarding whether NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang will announce his resignation or be dismissed before a specific date showed that the probability once rose to about 91%, but has now fallen to 78%.As of the time of publication, the total trading volume of this series of markets is approximately $15.25 million. Pricing by different deadlines: about 59% for November 12, about 63% for November 13, about 74% for November 30, about 78% for December 31; about 82% for March 31, 2027, and about 86% for December 31, 2027.

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.

MiniMax officially released H3-Image and open-sourced the model weights. This model can directly generate images of 4096×4096, approximately 16.8 million pixels, without additional upscaling. According to official data, the generation time is less than 10 seconds, with speeds reaching up to 5 times that of mainstream products. Text-to-image and image editing have been integrated into the same model, supporting up to 16 reference images.H3-Image follows the architecture of the H3 video model, removing the audio component while retaining the original text encoder and redesigning the decoder for images. The core image generation network has 33.1 billion parameters, requiring only 6 sampling steps to generate an image. On August 7, MiniMax researcher Kiro revealed in a Reddit AMA that the team is developing a dedicated image model based on the H3 homogenous architecture and plans to open-source the weights. They also proposed a workflow where the image model generates the first frame, which is then handed over to H3 for video generation.On November 3, Pruna AI launched P-H3-Image based on the open-source H3 video model, supporting raw images and retouching, compressing the generation network from 33.1 billion to approximately 20 billion parameters, requiring only 8 sampling steps. The minimal quantization version is about 20 GB, with peak memory usage of approximately 21 GB when generating 8 million pixel images. The official MiniMax version retains the 33.1 billion parameter generation network, with a sampling step count of 6, and supports higher resolutions and more reference images, with the original weights plus the reused text encoder totaling approximately 135 GB. There are regional restrictions on the open-source license; the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, and South Korea are not within the community license authorization regions. Companies with annual revenues exceeding 1 million dollars or those providing model hosting services to third parties must obtain separate authorization in advance.

Liquid Capital founder Yi Lihua stated that Bitcoin has currently broken through 80,300 USD and stabilized above the 20-day moving average. The next step requires a strong breakthrough of 82,600 USD to hope for the arrival of the second wave of the main upward trend, and to challenge the strong resistance level of 86,000 USD again. If it breaks through 86,000 USD, the subsequent target levels will look towards 97,000 USD and 104,000 USD.Yi Lihua mentioned that the pullback near 86,000 USD was a normal adjustment within the bullish trend, so even when anticipating a pullback, he would not choose to short, as the market could rebound quickly at any time. He also stated that he began to buy the dip when Bitcoin was close to 77,000 USD, but due to external factors affecting trade execution, he missed part of the rebound.

Stan Kladko, co-founder of SKALE Labs, announced on X to the SKALE community that he has stepped down from his position as Chief Technology Officer and board member of SKALE Labs, which he co-founded in 2017, but he will continue to serve as a member of the SKALE Foundation board. He expressed the desire to clarify the actions he is requesting from the foundation and believes the community should be involved in the discussion.Stan Kladko stated: SKALE is a protocol that relies on a small team of engineers who are responsible for developing, debugging, and maintaining the network online over the long term. These individuals have the best understanding of the boundaries of what is technically feasible and infeasible, but currently, there are no builders on the foundation's board. He believes that a protocol foundation without builders involved will make decisions on matters such as the roadmap, funding, and network economics, but will lack the necessary people to implement those decisions. He mentioned that successful protocols, from Ethereum to Cosmos, always involve engineers in discussions about long-term direction.The proposal put forward by Stan Kladko is to expand the foundation's board by three seats, to be filled by individuals with a strong background in software and protocol engineering. He stated that this proposal has been formally submitted to the foundation, and updates will be shared as they can be disclosed. He called for those who agree that building SKALE should participate in governance, and validators, delegators, application teams, and token holders can publicly express their stance, stating that he will continue to build SKALE.
