April 7: AVAX One Technology unveiled progress on its AI infrastructure strategy, aiming to build a 10MW AI/high-performance computing (HPC) microgrid data center in Alberta, Canada. The company has signed a Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) agreement, marking the project as one of the region’s first dedicated AI computing facilities. Leveraging Alberta’s low-cost energy (≈$0.04/kWh) and a microgrid model, the facility will deliver low-cost, highly scalable AI computing to meet rising demand for HPC and AI. Additionally, the firm has purchased 220 Bitmain S21 Pro Bitcoin mining rigs to boost its hash rate capacity. This move will generate transitional cash flow until the AI data center launches, supporting AVAX One’s dual-track strategy of "mining + AI computing."

On April 7, a U.S. source with multiple recent conversations with Trump told Axios that Trump could be the most hawkish member of his senior team on Iran.

On April 7, South Korea’s Financial Services Commission (FSC) ordered all cryptocurrency exchanges to reconcile their internal ledgers with actual asset holdings every five minutes—this after uncovering internal control vulnerabilities at several major platforms. The regulatory action stemmed from a February incident at Bithumb: the exchange mistakenly distributed 620,000 bitcoins to 249 users during a promotion. Ninety-nine point seven percent of the funds were recovered the same day, while the remaining 0.3% (1,788 BTC) was covered by Bithumb’s reserves. An FSC inspection further revealed that three of South Korea’s top five exchanges only reconciled ledgers once every 24 hours, limiting their ability to quickly respond to discrepancies. Additionally, these exchanges’ systems for suspending trading during major ledger mismatches were found inadequate.
