๐Ÿ” OMFIF research sets XLM & XRP as top matches for SWIFT

The Official Monetary and Financial Institutions Forum (OMFIF) financial think tank, trusted by multiple major banks across the globe, just released a report laying out the structure of whatโ€™s known as the global financial reset. By the latest report, it looks like Ripple (XRP) isnโ€™t a direct SWIFT competitor โ€“ instead, the blockchain infrastructure is embedded onto SWIFTโ€™s new ISO 20022 global messaging standard. The same goes for DLT-based chains such as Stellar Lumens (XLM) & IOTA, playing a part in speed & liquidity.

With SWIFT seeking to make cross-border payments real-time, XRPโ€™s Ledger comes into help due to already handling billions of dollars in Spot market volume daily. OMFIFโ€™s report highlights XRP as a plausible SWIFT competitor without the need to re-arrange the whole financial system, despite the popular narrative it would.

This way, SWIFT keeps its messaging standard, while XRP & Stellar Lumens (XLM) take care of value, speed & liquidity. OMFIF clearly states that building infrastructure together with HBAR & XRP, SWIFT & major banks are able to get the most out of the tech without worrying about head-to-head competition.

โ†—๏ธ Nvidia shares rise 8% as Jensen Huang says $660 billion capex buildout is sustainable

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said the massive capital expenditure on AI is both "appropriate" and "necessary" as the industry undergoes a "once in a generation infrastructure buildout" that will continue for several years. The CEOโ€™s comments helped propel the stock to close 7.9% higher, its best day since April 2025. Huang noted the demand for Nvidiaโ€™s products is "sky high" and pointed out that GPUs sold six years ago are increasing in price.

When discussing companies utilizing AI technology, Huang singled out Meta, saying "no one uses AI better than Meta." Regarding competition, Huang acknowledged that China is undoubtedly a competitor but maintained that it "makes no sense to concede China market if you want to win globally."

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ India is reportedly โ€˜readyโ€™ to buy up to $80 billion in Boeing aircraft following trade deal with U.S.

New Delhi is ready to place orders worth up to $80 billion for Boeing planes, Indiaโ€™s commerce and industry minister, Piyush Goyal said, signaling the countryโ€™s willingness to expand trade with the U.S.

Indiaโ€™s demand for aircraft alone, with orders for Boeing โ€œyet to be placed but ready,โ€ is nearly $80 billion, Goyal said that if engines and other spare parts are added, imports from U.S. will โ€œcross $100 billion just aircrafts.โ€ The minister also said that there was potential to procure a minimum of $500 billion worth of goods from the U.S. over the next five years, but clarified that there was no explicit investment commitment made as part of the trade deal with Washington.

๐Ÿ—ฝNew York Is the latest state to consider a data center pause

Two New York lawmakers on Friday announced that they are introducing a bill that would impose a three-year moratorium on data center development. Lawmakers in at least five other statesโ€”Georgia, Maryland, Oklahoma, Vermont, and Virginiaโ€”have also introduced bills this year that would impose various forms of temporary pauses on data center development.

New York currently has more than 130 data centers, with several large-scale projects. These projects are colliding with mounting concerns over impacts from data centers on the electric grid, environmental worries, and whether or not consumers would be footing the bill. Last month, as part of a larger set of actions intended to protect ratepayers from high energy costs, New Yorkโ€™s governor, Kathy Hochul, launched a new initiative to improve interconnection and grid upgrades while requiring data centers to โ€œpay their fair share.โ€

๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ China's high-power 'Microwave Weapon' that can damage satellites in space

China has developed a high-power microwave system TPG1000Cs that could one day be used to disrupt satellite networks such as SpaceX's Starlink. According to Chinese experts, a ground-based microwave weapon with an output exceeding one gigawatt (1 GW) could be powerful enough to severely interfere with or even damage Starlink satellites operating in low Earth orbit, reported the South China Morning Post (SCMP).

The device can deliver up to 20 gigawatts of power continuously for as long as one minute. It measures just four meters in length and weighs around five tonnes. This device has already completed more than 200,000 test pulses during trials and is designed for deployment on trucks, ships, aircraft or potentially in space. TPG1000Cs also represents a major upgrade over its earlier Hurricane-series high-power microwave (HPM) weapons, which were primarily designed for short-range air defence.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ทU.S. asks American citizens to โ€˜leave Iran nowโ€™

The U.S. Virtual Embassy in Iran issued a security alert early Friday urging American citizens to โ€œleave Iran nowโ€ and prepare departure plans that donโ€™t rely on U.S. government assistance.

The notice comes ahead of U.S. and Iranโ€™s scheduled talks in Oman on Friday, with little indication that the two sides have found common ground over the agenda of the meeting. The U.S. has issued several similar security alerts over the past month. The Embassy last urged American citizens to leave the country in a warning on Jan. 14 as Trump was weighing options for a possible intervention in Iran.

๐Ÿ’ต Tech AI spending may approach $700 billion this year

Alphabet, Microsof, Meta and Amazon are expected to spend nearly $700 billion combined this year to fuel their AI build-outs. The four hyperscalers are now projected to increase capital expenditures by more than 60% from the historic levels reached in 2025, as they load up on high-priced chips, build new mammoth facilities and buy the networking technology to connect it all.

Getting to those kinds of numbers is going to require sacrifice in the form of free cash flow. Last year, the four biggest U.S. internet companies generated a combined $200 billion in free cash flow, down from $237 billion in 2024.

๐Ÿš€ SpaceX shifts focus to NASA's lunar mission, delays Mars plans

SpaceX has postponed its long-anticipated mission to Mars, opting instead to concentrate on a lunar landing as part of its commitments to NASA. SpaceX is aiming for an uncrewed lunar landing in March 2027. The shift reflects a broader strategic realignment at SpaceX, which is also expanding into space-based artificial intelligence infrastructure following its acquisition of Elon Muskโ€™s AI startup xAI. That deal, announced this week, values the combined businesses at $1.25 trillion.

โ€œThe capabilities we unlock by making space-based data centers a reality will fund and enable self-growing bases on the Moon, an entire civilization on Mars, and ultimately expansion to the Universe,โ€ Musk wrote.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บUS to bankroll far-right think tanks in Europe against digital laws

The US State Department plans to fund MAGA - aligned think-tanks and charities across Europe, under the pretence of protecting free speech, promoting Washington's policy positions. Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy, Sarah Rogers, leads the initiative.

The US national security strategy has called for "cultivating resistance", accusing the European Union of "censorship of free speech" and citing mass migration as a cause for future "civilisational erasure," echoing far-right conspiracists.

Rogers specifically targets the UK's Online Safety Act and the EU's Digital Services Act. The Trump administration perceives these regulations as "fundamentally American-targeted regulatory schemes," seeking to attack free speech, American industry and the independence of the tech sector.

President Trump on Friday called the recent talks between the U.S. and Iran โ€œvery good,โ€ but said the consequences would be โ€œvery steepโ€ if a deal is not reached. Despite the pressure, Trump acknowledged that negotiations take time, telling reporters late Friday that โ€œweโ€™re in no rush.โ€

โ€œYou have to get in position. We have plenty of time if you remember Venezuela, we waited around for a while and weโ€™re in no rush,โ€ the president said, when asked about a timeline. โ€œWe have very good talks going with Iran. We have very good talks going with Russia and Ukraine. Weโ€™re doing a lot of good talking.โ€

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ US to resurrect Cold War-era 190,000-square-foot nuclear plant after 30-year dormancy

The US Department of Energy (DOE) officially signed a lease with General Matter to repurpose a massive facility at the Hanford Site. The agreement, announced this week, aims to transform the 190,000-square-foot Fuels and Materials Examination Facility (FMEF) - which was completed in 1984 but has remained unused since 1993 - into a hub for advanced nuclear fuel cycle technologies.

This initiative is part of a federal effort to enhance domestic energy supplies, particularly for the growing AI sector. General Matter will evaluate upgrades needed to revitalize the 190,000-square-foot facility, aiming to transform it into a commercial asset for Central Washington.

โ€œFMEF can be transformed into an asset to unleash American energy dominance,โ€ noted Tim Walsh from the DOE. General Matter also plans construction on a Kentucky facility to meet energy demands by the early 2030s.

Researchers are closer than ever to a key breakthrough in kidney transplants: being able to transfer kidneys from donors with different blood types than the recipients, which could significantly speed up waiting times and save lives. In research published last year, a team from institutions across Canada and China reported creating a 'universal' kidney that, in theory, can be accepted by any patient. Their test organ survived and functioned for several days in the body of a brain-dead recipient, whose family consented to the research.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณIndian refiners avoid Russian oil in push for US trade deal

Indian refiners are avoiding Russian oil purchases for delivery in April and are expected to stay away from such trades for longer. The U.S. and India moved closer to a trade pact on Friday, announcing a framework for a deal they hope to conclude by March that would lower tariffs and deepen economic cooperation.

Although a U.S. - India statement on the trade framework did not mention Russian oil, President Donald Trump rescinded his 25% tariffs on Indian goods, imposed over Russian oil purchases, because, he said, New Delhi had "committed to stop directly or indirectly" importing Russian oil.

Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum, Reliance Industries are not accepting offers from traders for Russian oil loading in March and April, said a trader who approached the refiners. Most other refiners have stopped buying Russian crude.

Vietnam has launched a monumental project to build a stadium designed to be the largest in the world. With a colossal budget of 925 trillion dong (approximately R$ 185 billion) and scheduled for completion in August 2028, the Trong Dong will have a capacity for 135,000 spectators, surpassing the current record holder, the Rungrado 1st of May Stadium (North Korea, 114,000 seats), and the future Hassan II Stadium (Morocco, 115,000).

To put it in perspective, the stadium would be 1.7 times larger than Maracanรฃ, currently the largest stadium in Brazil.

๐Ÿง‘โ€โš–๏ธ A federal appeals court has ruled that President Donald Trumpโ€™s administration can continue detaining immigrants without bond.

A federal appeals court ruled 2โ€“1 that the Trump admin can lawfully deny bond hearings to illegal immigrants. Circuit judge Edith H. Jones wrote in the 2-1 majority opinion that the government correctly interpreted the Immigration and Nationality Act by asserting that โ€œunadmitted aliens apprehended anywhere in the US are ineligible for release on bond, regardless of how long they have resided inside the US.โ€

AG Bondi called the ruling a "crucial legal victory" in support of Trump's agenda and a "significant blow against activist judges." Under past administrations, most noncitizens with no criminal record who were arrested away from the border had an opportunity to request a bond hearing while their cases wound through immigration court.

โ€œThat prior Administrations decided to use less than their full enforcement authority underโ€ the law โ€œdoes not mean they lacked the authority to do more,โ€ Jones wrote.
