Trump brought 17 CEOs to Beijing 😮

Today is a very important day. Trump is in Beijing for his first visit to China in 9 years. He arrived with 17 CEOs representing virtually every major sector of the U.S. economy: tech, finance, defense, agriculture, semiconductors, etc. The delegation reads like a Fortune 50 roll call 👇

🛑Jensen Huang – Nvidia
🛑Elon Musk – Tesla and SpaceX
🛑Tim Cook – Apple
🛑Larry Fink – BlackRock
🛑Stephen Schwarzman – Blackstone
🛑Kelly Ortberg – Boeing
🛑Jane Fraser – Citigroup
🛑David Solomon – Goldman Sachs
🛑Larry Culp – GE Aerospace
🛑Brian Sikes – Cargill
🛑Jim Anderson – Coherent
🛑Jacob Thaysen – Illumina
🛑Michael Miebach – Mastercard
🛑Dina Powell McCormick – Meta
🛑Sanjay Mehrotra – Micron Technology
🛑Cristiano Amon – Qualcomm
🛑Ryan McInerney – Visa

🔍 Most of these companies have direct, unresolved China exposure. Nvidia can't get regulatory approval to sell its advanced AI chips in the Chinese market. Boeing needs Chinese aircraft orders. Qualcomm, Micron, and Coherent all depend on Chinese sales or face Chinese market restrictions, and so on.

They arrived for the highly anticipated summit. The agenda covers:

🛑Trade and Tariffs
🛑Agricultural Purchases
🛑Boeing Aircraft Sales
🛑AI Export Controls
🛑Semiconductor Access
🛑Rare Earth Materials
🛑Taiwan Situation
🛑Strait of Hormuz / Iran Crisis
🛑Iran and China Relations
🛑Hong Kong and Human Rights
🛑Fentanyl and Drug Trafficking
🛑Supply Chain Security
🛑Investment and Economic Cooperation

🤔 Trump's stated priority is getting Xi to open China's market. Analysts expect the summit to close with visible wins: Chinese purchases of American aircraft and soybeans are the most likely announcements. Treasury Secretary Bessent pre-negotiated with China's Vice Premier He Lifeng in South Korea before the delegation even landed.

Both sides want to maintain the trade truce. China has its own economic pressures at home, but the urgency skews harder toward Washington. Trump is dealing with falling approval ratings after the Iran war, with midterms on the horizon, and he needs to show voters that real money was made here!

Six face-to-face meetings between Trump and Xi are scheduled across three days. By Friday, markets will likely react to what we are about to hear. I'm optimistic and bullish 🐂

Nvidia > India 😐

A single U.S. company, Nvidia, has reached a market capitalization of $5.5T, overtaking the value of every publicly traded company in India COMBINED, a country with 1.47 billion people...

🎮 Five years ago Nvidia was worth $345B and was mostly known for gaming graphics cards. It has added over $5T since, roughly a 1,500% gain. The revenue justifies some of it: $216B in its last fiscal year, $96.6B in free cash flow, with Wall Street expecting over $400B in FCF over the next two years.

It became the default infrastructure layer for AI, supplying the GPUs behind every major language model and enterprise AI system built in the last three years 🤖

The most inspiring thing about this whole story is that Nvidia was a publicly traded company for decades. Everyone could buy any amount of its stock. There are and will be more of these opportunities, because the world never stops changing 💰

🚨 The U.S. Senate could vote on crypto's biggest regulatory bill this week

The Clarity Act goes to committee before May 21st. One clause in it matters more than anything else: any project with an ETF already filed or approved before January 1st, 2026 gets automatic regulatory clearance, no repeat SEC review required.

🔍 Goldman Sachs already built over $150M in XRP ETF positions ahead of the vote. A survey of 352 institutional investors found 83% plan to increase crypto exposure, and Galaxy Research forecasts $15 to $25B in new inflows once the legal path is clear.

10 altcoins already did the legwork to qualify. The new video breaks down which ones, why each one makes the list, and what institutional money at that scale actually looks like when it starts moving 📹

AI helped crack a $400K Bitcoin wallet locked for 11 years 🔐

In 2015, a guy got stoned, changed his Bitcoin wallet password and forgot it instantly. Over 11 years he tried 3.5 trillion combinations and paid $500 for professional recovery. Nothing. Last week he dumped his entire old college laptop into Claude.

Claude dug through years of old files and found a backup wallet from before the password was changed. Then it spotted a bug in the recovery software that had been scrambling the password in the wrong order the whole time. Fixed the bug, got in, pulled the funds. 5 BTC locked since 2015 transferred to a new wallet 😎

🟠 Chainalysis estimates 3-4M BTC, around $300B, are permanently lost to forgotten passwords and dead hardware. If AI starts recovering even a fraction of that, it's new supply hitting the market. Nobody is pricing that in.... The password, by the way, was "lol420fuckthePOLICE!*:)"

How to Revoke Token Approvals and Why You Should Do It Regularly 👛

When you interact with DeFi protocols, you often sign token approvals. That approval gives the protocol permission to spend tokens from your wallet, often with no cap and no expiration date.

🤔 The approval doesn't disappear when you stop using the app. It stays active indefinitely. If the protocol gets exploited later, an attacker can drain whatever you approved, whether you last opened that app last week or two years ago.

Revoking removes the permission. It is an on-chain transaction, costs a small gas fee, and takes under a minute. Checking your approvals every few months and clearing anything unused is a simple habit that meaningfully reduces your risks.

The default tool for all EVM chains is RevokeCash. It covers Ethereum and 100+ other networks, shows every active approval tied to your address, and lets you revoke them one by one. Connect your wallet, pick the chain, and work through the list.

👍 For Solana, the Revoker by Famous Fox Federation does the same job.

😘 MetaMask users can manage approvals at the Portfolio page under the spending caps tab.

🥰 If you use Rabby, open the web extension and click the Approvals icon. It supports revoke in batches, which helps if you've accumulated a long list.

These tools clear permissions you've already granted. Some of them even flag which approvals are actively risky versus simply old. But they can't protect you from what you sign going forward!

South Korea's stock market hit an all-time high and crashed the same day 🔽

South Korea's stock market hit a record high this morning, then closed down 6.12% in the same session. The index had tripled over the past year, one of the best runs of any major market on earth.

📱 The main reason is Samsung. The company is so dominant it makes up 42.2% of the entire South Korean stock market.

When Samsung falls, the index falls with it, and today Samsung dropped 8.6% after its union announced an 18-day strike starting May 21

😱 SK Hynix, the second-largest name, fell 7.6% on top of that. Foreign investors pulled over $2B from tech in a single session, and the exchange had to halt automated selling mid-afternoon.

How to sell a JPEG for $42k 💸

A few days ago an artist named SHL0MS posted a water lilies painting on X, labeled it AI-generated, and asked followers to describe what makes it inferior to a real Monet. The replies came fast. People explained exactly why it was "slop": no spatial depth, no clear composition, brushstrokes that looked nothing like Monet's. The post garnered 1,200 comments, most of which criticized the AI art.

🎨 But, the image he posted was a real Monet painting. People invented every flaw the moment they read the word "AI." The anti-AI crowd, which positions itself as the defender of real artists, spent an afternoon confidently critiquing one of history's most celebrated painters.

The irony spread fast. SHL0MS minted the screenshot as an NFT, put it up for auction, and sold it today for 18.99 ETH, roughly $42k, across 28 bids.

🤔 Why would anyone pay $42k for a JPEG? For the same reason a real Monet hanging in a museum has value while an identical print from the gift shop sells for $30.

Value is a social agreement. The NFT is a receipt for a specific cultural moment, a documented event where a crowd hallucinated flaws in a masterpiece. The value of something is determined by what someone is willing to pay for it. That image, apparently, was worth $42k 🤷‍♀️

Most people paying $20/month for AI tools don't know Ollama exists 🦙

Ollama is a free, open-source tool that runs large language models directly on your computer. No subscription or API key required, and nothing you type ever leaves your machine.

⚙️ Setup takes about 5 minutes. Download the app, install it, then open a terminal and type "ollama run llama3".

It pulls the model automatically and drops you straight into a chat. The full list of available models is at Library page: Llama 3, Mistral, Gemma, Phi, DeepSeek, and about 100 others. These are the same open-source models powering most of the cheap AI wrappers people pay for monthly.

💻 The privacy angle is the main draw for me. Anything you'd hesitate to paste into ChatGPT, like client files, your name, internal documents, or anything sensitive, runs locally without a second thought. Larger models need more RAM, but Llama 3.2 runs fine on 8GB and covers most everyday tasks.

If you're already paying for a ChatGPT or Claude subscription and not doing anything that specifically needs cool models like GPT-5.5, it's worth trying before the next billing cycle hits 💳

Iran turned the Hormuz blockade into a Bitcoin revenue stream 💸

Iran launched Hormuz Safe, a Bitcoin-settled maritime insurance platform for ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz, projecting over $10B in revenue for the government. The service covers inspection, detention, and confiscation risks and excludes war damage.

🟠 Iran settled on bitcoin because it can't be frozen or seized by any foreign government, a critical feature for a country operating under comprehensive U.S. Treasury sanctions.

So far, the IRGC has been charging up to $2M per vessel for passage since March, with over 1,500 commercial ships trapped in the Persian Gulf as of May.

Hormuz Safe is protection money with a blockchain wrapper, and I suspect that's exactly how it'll function regardless of what the insurance policy says 🧠

I doubt the U.S. will let them get away with it...

Secret loop of China’s gig economy 🇨🇳

In Chinese cities, a strange economic cycle is thriving at night.

Young unemployed men become food delivery riders for Meituan and Ele.me. Young women often turn to livestreaming – chatting, singing, and earning money through virtual gifts.

🍪🍪 So the money keeps circulating:

delivery riders → donate to streamers
streamers → order food and cosmetics
platforms → take fees from both sides
riders → keep delivering
streamers → keep streaming

A perfect closed-loop economy: couriers fund the streamers, and streamers keep the couriers busy.

As people joke online: "If a delivery rider marries a streamer, they’ve built the ultimate self-sustaining household."

Funny, sad, and strangely efficient... but also a perfect snapshot of modern China: youth unemployment, the boom in gig work, and social media turning attention into real cash flow 💸

Simple BTC strategy: MA200 explained 🤓

Some BTC strategies look too simple to work – but that is exactly why traders keep watching them.

One of them is based on the 200-week moving average:

🟠buy when BTC trades below the weekly MA200
🟠hold after BTC breaks back above it
🟠start taking profit around ~1000 days after the breakout

What is MA200?
MA200 is the 200-period moving average. On the weekly chart, it shows the average BTC price over the last 200 weeks.

Why do traders care?
Historically, BTC trading near or below the weekly MA200 often marked long-term accumulation zones. Not always the exact bottom, but usually the area where patient buyers started building positions.

What is the catch?
The hard part is not the strategy itself. The hard part is sitting through years of volatility without panic selling the first bounce or chasing every short-term move.

🔠Current update:
BTC has not touched the weekly MA200 during the current drop yet. So according to this framework, the accumulation signal has not appeared.

Not financial advice – just a simple cycle-based framework many long-term traders keep on their radar 👁
