The Internet of Things public chain IoTeX announced the launch of IOTX supply integration and the IOTX Redemption Portal. Users can exchange the ERC-20 IOTX issued on Ethereum in 2018 at a 1:1 ratio with zero fees for the native IOTX on the IoTeX mainnet. After completing the connection, sending, and signing, the native tokens will be sent to the same address.IoTeX stated that IOTX was issued in 2018 in the form of Ethereum ERC-20. A year later, the IoTeX mainnet went live, and the native IOTX is used to pay for Gas, secure network safety through staking, and complete settlements on IoTeX L1. Since the 2018 contract is still in circulation, IOTX has coexisted in two forms for a long time, and this integration aims to unify the supply.IoTeX also mentioned that the European fintech company Revolut has supported native IOTX, with over 70 million global customers; the licensed exchange in Thailand, Bitkub, has also supported it. Both have joined platforms that already support native IOTX, such as Binance, Upbit, Bithumb, and Kraken.

On October 12, 2026, William Zhou and Daniel Freeman, frontier red team researchers at the artificial intelligence company Anthropic, published a study. The article states that small models may have the ability to self-replicate on commercial IoT devices such as smart ovens and generic Android TV boxes within months. These replicas do not have a single shutdown point, and the doubling time may be measured in days, potentially adapting to unfamiliar devices on their own.Evaluation shows that a 9B model completed inference on 8 out of 9 hardware types. Models of 30B and below have been able to complete many single steps of replication, but errors occur when combined end-to-end; in simplified evaluations, GLM-5.2 and stronger models can achieve end-to-end replication. The team also distributed Gemma4-26B-A4B across 15 generic Android TV boxes, each costing about $55, operating at a speed of approximately 0.39 tokens/second, with each box holding two layers of the model.End-to-end testing was conducted on 8 GCP nodes behind a firewall, propagating through an unauthorized ADB port and setting up Llama 3.1-8B inference. Among the tested open-source models, only GLM-5.2 completed replication fully, transmitting to all 8 nodes in 4 out of 5 trials. The article divides autonomous replication and adaptation into four steps: discovering the target, obtaining execution, establishing inference, and continuing propagation from the new host, stating that there are currently no complete uncontrolled replicas.

According to Pulse 2.0, Riot Platforms has signed AI data center leasing agreements with two major technology clients, involving 241MW of critical IT capacity, corresponding to approximately $9.8 billion in long-term contract revenue. This move will accelerate the company's transition from a Bitcoin mining-centric business model to a large-scale data center developer.One of the larger agreements is a 191MW custom build lease agreement signed by Riot Platforms with a leading frontier AI laboratory, located at Riot's Rockdale campus. The initial lease term is 20 years, expiring in June 2048, and is expected to generate approximately $9.1 billion in contract revenue.If the client continues to lease after the initial lease term, the revenue scale from the agreement could further expand. The agreement includes two options for a 5-year renewal; if both renewal options are fully exercised, the potential total contract value will increase to approximately $16.1 billion.Riot expects that the initial lease term alone will bring in a cumulative net operating income of approximately $7.3 billion to $8.2 billion, equivalent to an average annual contribution of about $365 million to $411 million. The first phase of 96MW is expected to be delivered in December 2027, with the full 191MW planned for deployment by June 2028.
