Global Macro Investor founder and CEO Raoul Pal published a discussion on how to value L1. He used Ethereum as an example, stating that if it were to shut down, all stablecoins, DeFi, all L2s, and NFTs on it would go to zero.Pal indicated that L1 attracts assets, capital, and velocity due to its intellectual density. Ethereum has the most developers, programmability, and a complete ecosystem. He has repeatedly heard the DCF argument and believes it is meaningless; the valuation target is not cash flow, but everything guaranteed by the chain.He stated that as we enter the era of indices, the entire human economy and the new intelligent economy will be on-chain, and immense value will accumulate in these foundational layers, which is evident.

According to the Guangzhou Daily New Flower City report, a man in Guangzhou lent 1 virtual currency to a friend, agreeing to return it two days later. After the other party failed to return it on time, he was sued, with the plaintiff requesting the return of the virtual currency or compensation at market price.The Guangzhou Intermediate People's Court ruled that the relevant virtual currency lending agreement was invalid and did not support the return of the virtual currency or compensation at market price. Virtual currency belongs to online virtual property, and the borrower should still compensate the lender for property losses, ultimately ruling to compensate 199,600 yuan based on the cost price at which the lender purchased the virtual currency.

Stablecoin issuer Tether entered Uruguay in May 2023, planning to engage in sustainable Bitcoin mining and invest in energy production with local licensed companies. The project has two mining sites in the Florida province, with an estimated investment of 60 million USD each, totaling approximately 120 million USD.Uruguay's state-owned electricity company UTE had a disagreement with Tether regarding the electricity supply contract amount. Tether's Uruguayan entity Microfin stopped paying electricity bills in May 2025 and notified of its intention to terminate the contract in June; on July 25, UTE cut off power to the mining site, with Microfin owing nearly 5 million USD and monthly electricity costs of about 2 million USD.On November 25, 2025, Tether notified the Uruguayan labor department of its cessation of operations, with 30 out of 38 local positions being eliminated. UTE stated that Microfin had settled its debts by December; in 2025, 98% of Uruguay's electricity generation came from renewable energy.

According to a report by Reuters, Tether's Bitcoin mining project in Uruguay has ultimately come to a halt due to a power supply contract dispute with the local state-owned electricity company UTE, with an estimated investment scale of about $120 million. The two parties have differences regarding the contracted power supply amount, with Tether believing the relevant figure is the minimum guaranteed supply, while UTE considers it the maximum supply limit.Due to the failure to sign a new agreement and overdue electricity payments, UTE cut off power supply to two mining sites on July 25, 2025. Tether subsequently ended its local operations and laid off most of its employees. The Uruguay project was seen by Tether as the "first step" into the South American Bitcoin mining market. However, Tether continues to expand its regional energy and mining layout, having previously acquired a 70% stake in the renewable energy company Adecoagro and plans to utilize its remaining electricity for Bitcoin mining.

According to a report by Reuters, Tether has ceased its Bitcoin mining operations in Uruguay as of 2025. Documents and sources indicate that the project was ultimately abandoned due to a misunderstanding between Tether and the Uruguayan national electricity company UTE regarding the terms of power supply.Tether believed the contract stipulated a minimum power supply that could be adjusted, while UTE viewed it as a maximum quota that could not be exceeded.

According to three informed sources, in mid-May, when U.S. negotiators attempted to reach an agreement to end the war with Iran, they encountered a problem: they could not determine whether the Iranian representatives across the negotiating table truly represented the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which holds significant influence in the country. The report stated that, as a result, officials from the Trump administration took an unusual approach—bypassing the Iranian negotiating representatives and directly contacting senior leaders of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.The U.S. chose Nechirvan Barzani, the President of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, to handle this secret communication channel. He possesses a rare advantage: he has gained the trust of both the U.S. and the leadership of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. This incident highlights that one of the significant reasons for the difficulties in U.S.-Iran negotiations is Washington's inability to determine who truly holds decision-making power in Iran. The U.S. and Iran did eventually reach a memorandum of understanding, but it quickly fell apart.

According to Bloomberg, EdgeConneX Inc., a data center operator supported by EQT, is seeking banks to provide a power cost guarantee of up to $2.5 billion to support its global data center expansion plans.EdgeConneX is negotiating a letter of credit financing arrangement with several banks, including France's Natixis and Spain's BBVA.
