Hello NWC Fam! Let's take a look at a few highlights together. ✧ Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin says he stands by his conviction that ether is a commodity despite the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and its chairman, Gary Gensler, trying to assert authority over all crypto tokens, except bitcoin. “I anticipate that, with previous technologies like the internet, the web and cryptography, clear heads will prevail,” said Lubin. ✧ Softbank, one of the largest investment management conglomerates in the world, is reportedly eyeing several investments in the artificial intelligence (AI) field after having paused its crypto investments. According to the Financial Times, Softbank founder and chief executive officer Masayoshi Son is prepared to put tens of billions of dollars into AI, with Microsoft-backed Openai being one of these potential opportunities. ✧ A Hong Kong Legislative Council member has assured Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin that the friendly cryptocurrency policies in Hong Kong are “very stable.” In response to Buterin’s comments expressing his unfamiliarity with Hong Kong and its “complicated interaction” with Mainland China, the legislator has extended an invitation for the Ethereum co-founder to visit Hong Kong and acquire a deeper understanding of the city’s crypto regulations. #Ethereum #Softbank #HongKong
