Tokens rallied. The products? Still very vapor. 📣 @austincampbell in @Bloomberg: "Crypto has a long history of people overpromising and hilariously failing to deliver."

$3 trillion in off-balance-sheet AI commitments. Roughly $600 billion is on the books; the rest sits in footnote disclosures, including leases that, in one case, extend to 2056. @nvidia is reportedly supporting a lending facility of about $500 billion so customers can buy Nvidia chips. Credit has started saying no: @SoftBank reportedly could not pledge @OpenAI equity as collateral. @davidzmorris and @austincampbell mapped out where it all sits: zero-knowledge.com/blog/data…

SpaceX's IPO popped 20% on day one - then it sank. @austincampbell and I called it in the air - but it's not over. Now the unlocks are coming — supply quadruples over six months while insiders race for the exits. zero-knowledge.com/blog/spac…

1/ Big Tech has quietly stacked up $3 trillion in off-balance-sheet AI commitments: future data center leases and purchase obligations hiding in footnotes. If AI revenue stalls, those bills are still due. That's when the albatross lands. 🧵

5/ And because these names ARE the market now, the question isn't just credit; it's what happens to equity returns when the ballast stops compounding. Pensions are long this concentration whether they know the lease schedule or not.

The scam compounds are empty. The architecture behind them isn't. Hun To, cousin of Cambodia's PM, still holds 30% of Huione Pay - zero accountability. Our new report authored by @jdanielsims and co-published with @NDI, breaks down why. Read now: nothingescapesinca.com/p/sca…
