Metaplanet transferred 1,600 Bitcoin to two new wallets.

According to DefiLlama data, Binance recorded a net capital inflow of $15.6 billion over the past month, an amount exceeding Robinhood’s total platform assets of $14.325 billion. In the same period, OKX saw a monthly net inflow of around $1.7 billion, while Bybit’s stood at approximately $1.9 billion, meaning Binance’s inflow scale is roughly 8 to 9 times that of each of the two exchanges. Analysts note that beyond market conditions and its leading market position, Binance is accelerating its expansion into the TradFi (Traditional Finance) space. Recently, the platform has been continuously adding assets including gold, silver, popular U.S. stocks, ETFs, tokenized stocks, and pre-IPO offerings, enabling users to allocate multiple asset classes—such as crypto, precious metals, U.S. equities, and ETFs—in a single account without needing to transfer their crypto assets to traditional brokerages.

Pollen Robotics, a subsidiary of Hugging Face, recently launched the open-source bipedal robot Microduck, priced at $399 and standing about 25 cm tall. The robot supports functions including walking, object grasping, autonomous recovery after falling, and can even wear roller skates. Within six hours of its launch, its order value exceeded $1 million, and surpassed $2.6 million within 24 hours. At the $399 price point, this translates to roughly 6,500 pre-orders, with current new orders facing a delivery lead time of 4 to 6 months. Notably, Microduck’s main control unit uses China-based Rockchip’s RK3566 chip; its on-board computing platform operates 15 motors, a camera, LiDAR, and runs the robot’s 50Hz policy loop. After today’s A-share market opened, Rockchip’s stock price immediately hit the daily limit, with market analysts citing the strong sales of Hugging Face’s Microduck as a key catalyst for the stock movement.

Insight Beating AI Flash News: MiniMax’s stock price surged over 19% at one point today, currently trading at HK$357.8, with its total market capitalization rising to HK$124.956 billion. Since hitting a low of HK$186.2 on July 27, the stock has rallied 92.15% in roughly one month. Earlier reports stated that at MiniMax’s 2026 mid-year results conference, the firm disclosed that token consumption in July reached 20 times the level in January, Q2 revenue grew 81.8% quarter-on-quarter versus Q1, and August annual recurring revenue (ARR) further rose to over US$800 million.

Beating AI News Flash: In August this year, leading Chinese AI chip companies released their semi-annual reports in succession. Last Friday, Biren Technology issued its financial report, reporting nearly 20-fold revenue growth. In addition, top players including Cambricon and Moore Threads also posted significant revenue increases. Behind the robust performance lies a severe shortage of high-end computing power. Currently, the high-end computing power supply chain faces a full-chain crunch, with some firms’ orders booked as far as three years ahead. This is a microcosm of the current booming high-end computing power market. Not only are downstream intelligent computing center resources in short supply, but orders in the midstream system integration segment are also being released intensively. According to industry research, domestic AI chip demand is projected to reach around 4 million units in 2026, while actual deliveries will total roughly 3 million units, leaving a production capacity gap of 1 million units. The industry widely believes that domestic chips are in a strong upward cycle in the high-end AI chip sector. Recently, multiple domestic chip firms have disclosed financial reports, with data showing a collective explosive growth trend.
