According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi's monitoring, Leopold Aschenbrenner's Situational Awareness Fund only established positions in three small-cap stocks with market caps below $1 billion in Q1, all of which have surged over 130% since April. The three stocks are T1 Energy Inc. (up 140.5%), SharonAI Holdings (up 233.6%), and HIVE Digital Technologies (up 137.9%), all categorized under the AI infrastructure sector, covering electric power and energy, cloud computing, and digital infrastructure. This aligns with his core investment thesis of "betting on the physical bottlenecks of AI development."

Block's Cash App is gradually rolling out stablecoin payment functionality to its nearly 60 million users. According to sources familiar with the matter, the feature currently covers approximately 25% of users and is expected to reach full 100% availability within this week.The core functionality supports users in depositing and withdrawing via USDC, allowing free transfers of funds between external wallets and Cash App balances, and using stablecoins as a settlement tool for payments rather than as investment products. It currently supports transactions across four blockchain networks, including Solana, Ethereum, Polygon, and Arbitrum. Due to the irreversible nature of on-chain transactions, incorrect addresses or unsupported network transfers may result in permanent loss of funds.Block CEO Jack Dorsey previously stated that despite his longstanding preference for Bitcoin, user demand for stablecoins has prompted the company to adjust its strategy.

SpaceX is about to launch a massive initial public offering (IPO), sparking intensive interest from major Wall Street funds. According to reports, about a week ago, a private jet emblazoned with the SpaceX logo carried nearly 200 investors from major Wall Street funds to Texas to attend a multi-day roadshow briefing held by SpaceX executives. Due to overwhelming subscription demand, the plane could not even accommodate all interested investors. As the listing of this company, composed of Musk's rocket and AI businesses, draws near, Wall Street may be discussing which tech stocks to sell in order to free up capital for subscribing to SpaceX shares, which is expected to trigger a sell-off in tech stocks worth tens of billions of dollars.

According to on-chain analyst PeckShield (@PeckShieldAlert), a user’s Alchemix Yearn yvVault position (token $yvWETH) was attacked, resulting in an estimated loss of approximately $1 million. The root cause of the attack lies in the user’s prior approval grant to an unverified contract (contract address: 0x143a), deployed 10 days ago. Reverse-engineering analysis revealed that this contract contains a vulnerability enabling arbitrary call execution. Exploiting this vulnerability, the attacker successfully transferred the victim’s yvVault position. PeckShield has now publicly disclosed the specific logic of this vulnerability. Users are advised to review and revoke token approvals granted to unknown or unverified contracts to mitigate asset risks.
According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi's monitoring, the address holding the largest HYPE long position on Hyperliquid has an unrealized profit of $3.42 million, having previously faced an unrealized loss of up to $23.18 million. The address began taking a significant long position on HYPE at the end of October last year, currently holding 1.38 million tokens (worth $56.82 million) with an opening price of $38.675. When HYPE dropped to around $20 in January this year, the address deposited additional margin multiple times to avoid liquidation. Due to the long holding period and large position size, its single-token funding rate has reached $2.107 million.
According to on-chain analytics platform Lookonchain (@lookonchain), an OTC whale previously purchased 163,405 ETH (approximately $440 million) and 4,000 cbBTC (approximately $296 million). Due to the KelpDAO rsETH cross-chain bridge vulnerability, this whale was unable to withdraw ETH normally from Aave and was forced to discount-swap 7,438 aEthWETH (approximately $16.83 million) for 1,930 stETH and 5,272 ETH, incurring a loss of approximately 237 ETH (about $540,000). The whale has since withdrawn 98,032 wstETH (approximately $272 million) and 3,000 cbBTC (approximately $221.6 million) from Aave, leaving 10,000 ETH (approximately $22.8 million) still deposited in Aave.
According to on-chain analyst Ember (@EmberCN), Aave’s capital outflow today has reached $6.6 billion, approximately half of which—$3.3 billion—consists of stablecoins. Due to this large-scale capital withdrawal, both deposit and borrowing rates on the platform have risen: USDT and USDC deposit rates have climbed to 13.4%, while borrowing rates have increased to 15%.

According to The Block, U.S. musician Garrett Dutton (stage name G.
