OpenAI privately supports three bills restricting chip exports to China

According to Beating AI news, OpenAI has privately expressed support to U.S. lawmakers this week for three bills aimed at limiting China's access to advanced AI chips and manufacturing equipment. This is not the first time OpenAI has supported chip restrictions against China. Last year, the company advocated for limiting U.S. companies from selling high-end chips to China but later stopped pushing Congress for stricter measures. OpenAI's leadership has been concerned that publicly supporting tighter chip export restrictions to China would anger Jensen Huang and damage their partnership with NVIDIA.OpenAI has a close relationship with NVIDIA. NVIDIA not only supplies GPUs but also supports OpenAI's data center construction through substantial financing guarantees. Jensen Huang has long lobbied Washington for a relaxation of chip sales restrictions to China. The stance of AI company Anthropic has been more pronounced. In September of this year, the company directly withdrew from an industry association in opposition to the association's obstruction of chip regulation bills.The three bills supported by OpenAI require strengthening chip tracking, limiting the supply of chip manufacturing equipment to China, and increasing congressional scrutiny of sensitive chip export licenses. Jensen Huang resigned on November 12, impacting NVIDIA's lobbying influence in Washington. Bipartisan lawmakers are working to incorporate these restrictions into the year-end National Defense Authorization Act.

first_img Reports indicate that AMD's supply of gaming graphics cards in China has decreased by 20% to 50%

According to a report released by ChannelGate, a public account under BoBanTang, starting from the fourth quarter of 2026, AMD's supply of gaming graphics cards for the Chinese market will decrease by approximately 20% to 50%, and the supply tightness may continue until January next year. The report states that the number of GPUs that AMD's authorized graphics card partners can obtain each month is also decreasing, with specific supply quantities being uncertain.The related news involves AMD's supply arrangements for gaming graphics cards in the Chinese region for the fourth quarter of 2026. Starting in October, the AMD chips available to relevant graphics card manufacturers have significantly contracted, and the specific number of chips they can obtain each month is unstable. Channel sources also indicate that the scarcity of AMD graphics cards may be approaching that of NVIDIA graphics cards, with some graphics card manufacturers receiving very limited quantities of gaming GPUs.Manufacturers such as ASUS, Sapphire, and ASRock need to obtain GPU chips, along with memory, circuit boards, and coolers to produce retail graphics cards. In addition to chip supply, there have been previous reports in the industry chain that AMD may adjust the supply prices to partners based on the costs of GPU chips and memory kits. The final retail price of graphics cards is also influenced by manufacturers' inventory, specific models, channel pricing, and market demand.

first_img BNY has partnered with Figment to support staking on its digital asset custody platform

According to The Block, banking giant BNY will adopt the validator infrastructure of staking service provider Figment to support its staking business. Eligible institutional clients can stake assets within the platform through BNY's existing digital asset custody services.Figment stated that BNY's staking clients include asset management companies, ETF issuers, corporations, and wealth management institutions. Qualified clients can earn staking rewards on supported assets on the platform. A Figment spokesperson told The Block that ETH will be supported initially, followed by an expansion to SOL, although no specific launch date has been announced.Ralf Roth, head of BNY's digital asset custody, stated that as institutional participation in staking increases, the focus is shifting from whether staking can be accessed to how staking is delivered. Providing staking services in a trusted custody framework with Figment allows institutions to have more confidence in their participation methods and meets their standards for security, oversight, and accountability.Josh Deems, head of revenue at Figment, stated that Figment is bringing its validator infrastructure and staking experience to BNY's digital asset custody platform, providing institutional clients with another way to participate in staking within existing platforms and service processes.BNY launched its digital asset custody services in October 2022, initially accepting Bitcoin and Ethereum from a limited number of clients. Last month, BNY expanded its custody agreement with Ripple to cover XRP and RLUSD, and plans to allow BNY clients to mint and redeem RLUSD through the bank.Coinbase Prime integrated Figment's Ethereum staking services in early 2024, and when the two announced an expansion to networks such as Solana, Cardano, and Sui in October 2025, they stated that the partnership had facilitated over $2 billion in asset staking. Figment claims it has provided staking services to over 1,500 institutions, including asset management companies, custodians, exchanges, and wallets.
