Injective’s official announcement states that the first U.S. ETF tracking INJ, designated “INJC”, has officially listed on Nasdaq, becoming the first U.S. ETF to offer INJ investment exposure. The product holds spot INJ in custody by BitGo, with plans to allocate up to 90% of its holdings for staking and automatically reinvest net staking earnings. Investors can gain exposure to INJ tokens via traditional securities brokerage accounts, with no requirement to create crypto wallets or exchange accounts. INJ has thus joined a small group of crypto assets including BTC, ETH, and SOL that have their own dedicated U.S. ETFs.

Affected by project delivery delays, regulatory hurdles, and rising costs, Microsoft is exiting some projects it deems high-risk. Bloomberg cited people familiar with the matter as reporting that Microsoft is stepping up reviews of certain data center projects from Nebius, IREN, and Nscale, and re-evaluating whether to sign new cooperation agreements. Following the news, coupled with the broader market pullback, IREN fell 16.95% in overnight U.S. stock trading, Nebius dropped 14.94%, and CoreWeave also fell around 10%. IREN subsequently released its Q1 FY2027 financial results: quarterly revenue rose 66% quarter-over-quarter to $228 million, with AI cloud revenue surging 182% quarter-over-quarter to $200 million, and the AI cloud business posted a gross margin of approximately 86%. The company also disclosed its revenue backlog increased to $20.3 billion, up 22% quarter-over-quarter, with delivery timelines still subject to adjustments. IREN has delivered its first Horizon 1 data center to Microsoft, which obtained NVIDIA Exemplar certification; over $4 billion in annual recurring revenue (ARR) targets have been signed and funded, but due to client-requested design adjustments and changes in vendor delivery schedules, the original target of hitting this by the end of 2024 has been pushed to January 2027, with a possible extension to late February at the latest. As of press time, the IREN contract on Hyperliquid traded at $20.43, a rebound of around 13.3% from its regular U.S. stock session close of $18.03; the NBIS contract rose around 3.2% over the same period. Trading activity also expanded significantly: the IREN contract’s 24-hour trading volume was approximately $20.81 million, up around 219% from the previous 24 hours’ $6.51 million; NBIS’s trading volume rose from roughly $43.22 million to $90.53 million, an increase of about 109%.

According to Singapore's Channel NewsAsia, Singaporean police arrested 44-year-old Singapore national Chen Xiuling at Changi Airport on November 5. She previously served as a director of multiple Singapore-registered companies believed to be actually owned by Chen Zhi, founder of the Prince Group. The charges against her relate to submitting false agreements to JTC Corporation in 2022 to obtain property lease approval. Police also disclosed that since June 2026, they have issued additional asset disposal prohibition orders on 14 properties linked to the Prince Group and seized multiple bank and securities accounts, involving approximately SGD 100 million (around USD 78 million). This brings the total value of assets seized or restricted from disposal for the Prince Group to over SGD 700 million.

Plato Head of Investment Management Long-Short Strategy David Allen said the root cause of Thursday’s market sell-off is investors conflating the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) with whether related investments will deliver returns. The Nasdaq 100 index plummeted as investors dumped US tech stocks amid speculation that congressional Democrats will tighten regulation of the AI industry. Allen noted, “A survival-of-the-fittest competition has been underway among large hyperscale cloud providers. The midterm election results essentially provided the trigger for the sharp market drop.” Antipodes Partners Portfolio Manager Vihari Ross stated that this sell-off reflects less structural problems in AI companies than the market beginning to reassess the realities of the next phase of related investments. “To achieve their goals, massive debt is required—meaning funding costs and interest rates are critical. Additionally, it depends on access to sufficient power supply and whether market demand holds at current levels,” she said. “It would be unwise to assume all companies will achieve perfect results.”
