Bitcoin Surges Over 1% in the Past Hour, Approaching $65,000

June 22 — According to a report from CCTV Finance, the 4th Chain Expo opened in Beijing Wednesday, with NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang delivering a video keynote address for the event. Huang stated in his remarks: “The Chain Expo focuses on one of the world’s most critical systems: the global supply chain. This network links energy sources, manufacturing facilities, logistics providers, businesses, and customers, effectively connecting the entire world. China is one of the world’s key technology and industrial hubs, where engineers demonstrate exceptional expertise, developers act swiftly to deliver results, and companies achieve remarkable growth on an unprecedented scale.”

On June 22, Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin took to social media to share that a truly trustless, neutral global coordination platform and digital asset settlement system would be a major breakthrough for the world. He emphasized that Ethereum’s large-scale, robust decentralization is exactly what’s making this vision possible. Looking ahead, more trustworthy, well-funded organizations will partner with the Ethereum Foundation to advance this mission. These groups will focus on growing the broader Ethereum ecosystem and driving progress in key areas of interest for financial institutions adopting Ethereum technology: Ethereum Mainnet, Layer 2 (L2) networks, and Private Ethereum networks. Down the line, these three pillars will achieve near real-time interoperability and composability, allowing ETH to flow freely across the expanded Ethereum ecosystem.

On June 22, Bittensor co-founder Const published a comprehensive article outlining the project’s current centralized governance framework and its roadmap to full decentralization. He noted Bittensor is not yet fully decentralized—unlike Bitcoin—but clarified this is not a design flaw; rather, it’s a strategic choice tailored to AI’s early, fast-evolving phase. Unlike Bitcoin, which faced headwinds from national financial systems at its launch, AI is still in its infancy, so Bittensor is prioritizing innovation speed and protocol iteration efficiency over early adoption of slow, on-chain governance led by a decentralized community. Instead, the core team will steer key upgrades to refine network mechanics and economic models in the near term. Const emphasized Bittensor has already achieved decentralization at its most critical levels: token distribution, network ownership, and ecosystem participation rights. Since launch, the project has never engaged in pre-mining, has operated for ov

June 22: During a recent interview on the "No Priors" podcast, Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger laid out an ambitious target for the company: hitting a 10x milestone over the next five to 10 years. Gelsinger noted Intel is restructuring its technology roadmap to center on three core areas: advanced packaging, next-generation semiconductor materials, and advanced substrate technologies. He added that the company is doubling down on key technologies including advanced packaging tools like EMIB and Foveros, plus new semiconductor materials such as gallium nitride, silicon carbide, indium phosphide, and lab-grown diamonds. These moves are aimed at addressing the growing challenge of approaching the physical limits of traditional semiconductor process nodes, he explained. Gelsinger also highlighted that surging demand for AI and inference workloads is driving a CPU market recovery, and that the full potential of Intel’s foundry business may gradually emerge only after 2030.
