The petition drive urging NVIDIA’s board to reinstate Jensen Huang continues to gain momentum. To date, the website has collected 151,083 signatures, including 7,380 current NVIDIA employees, 1,381 former employees, and 80,205 shareholders, among others. High-profile figures including Elon Musk, Tom Lee, and Replit CEO Amjad Masad have publicly added their names to the petition. On November 12, 2026, NVIDIA announced that Jensen Huang was stepping down as chief executive officer, effective immediately, marking the end of his 33-year tenure leading the company he co-founded. Campaign organizers and signatories express concern that Huang was forced out without due process or adequate time to defend himself, and are demanding the board provide an explanation. The open letter’s core requests to NVIDIA’s board are: reinstate Huang as CEO pending an independent investigation into the facts; if he remains in a leave of absence, provide evidence-backed justifications. The letter also calls for an independent investigation with clear scope and timeline, a fair opportunity for Huang to defend himself, and timely public disclosures addressing concerns, evidence, and trade-offs for employees and shareholders. The letter stresses: “Thirty-three years of leadership do not mean immunity from accountability, but accountability requires evidence and due process, not a public trial by the crowd.” The website notes that the campaign is independent and has not been endorsed by NVIDIA or Jensen Huang personally.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned the Federal Reserve against further monetary policy tightening during an appearance on Fox News.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said NVIDIA's leadership needs "significant adjustments" and the company should seek a new leader externally.

US Senator Cynthia Lummis, one of the lead drafters of the CLARITY Act, posted a statement saying that Democrats had called for establishing a mandatory SEC review mechanism, requiring crypto projects to submit relevant information and obtain SEC certification before offering products to the public. The CLARITY Act incorporated this requirement, but Democrats ultimately voted against the bill. Lummis argued that this means Democrats opposed measures aimed at protecting consumers.

Approximately 64,000 Bitcoin mining rigs were hijacked, with a combined hashrate of around 13 EH/s. Attackers redirected the rigs’ hashrate to the OCEAN mining pool and set the payout address to a Bitcoin wallet under their control. The attack reportedly began around 20:00 Central Time (10:00 Beijing Time) on November 14. OCEAN’s dashboard showed its hashrate spiking sharply in a short window, nearly hitting 50 EH/s before falling back to around 40 EH/s. Mining hosting provider CoreX Hosting was the first to issue an alert, noting some rigs were unauthorizedly switched to other pools. An affected mine operator said their entire facility was hijacked, pointing to Luxor’s Commander mining management software as a potential root cause of the security incident. Other operators reported similar unauthorized pool-switching incidents several days earlier, suggesting the attack may be more widespread. CoreX later stated the attack appeared to have concluded, with the hijacked hashrate dropping from 13 EH/s to roughly 100 PH/s. The attackers failed to mine any Bitcoin blocks during the hijacking, so they earned no block rewards. However, affected miners permanently lost the Bitcoin mining revenue they would have generated during the attack, as this hashrate time is irrecoverable. To date, the full scope of the incident and whether Luxor Commander was compromised have not been independently verified.
