hot_img SK Hynix will begin mass production of LPDDR6 in the second half of the year, with the first batch supplied to Xiaomi's flagship phones

SK Hynix announced that it will officially begin mass production of 16Gb LPDDR6 low-power mobile DRAM in the second half of this year, with the first products set to be featured in Xiaomi's next-generation flagship smartphone. The product was developed in March and utilizes 10nm class sixth-generation (1c) technology, offering improvements in data processing speed and energy efficiency compared to the previous generation. SK Hynix has been supplying LPDDR products to Xiaomi since 2013, maintaining a long-term partnership.LPDDR is primarily used in mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, combining low power consumption with high performance. Recently, driven by demand from AI servers, LPDDR prices have continued to rise, with contract prices increasing steadily, leading to a 64.5% quarter-over-quarter growth in global mobile DRAM revenue in the first quarter. SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics are ahead of Micron in preparing for the mass production of LPDDR6. Additionally, the mass production of LPDDR6 is expected to accelerate competition in the SO-CAMM (low-power memory module) market, which is seen as a complementary solution for AI server CPUs. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang visited the SK Hynix booth at the Taipei International Computer Show in June, leaving a message of "LOVE SOCAMM" for the 192GB SO-CAMM.

hot_img Domestic immersion DUV lithography machines have started small batch production, with plans to deliver about 5 units this year

According to a report by The Information citing informed sources, a Shanghai state-owned company whose name has not been disclosed has begun producing domestically-made immersion DUV lithography machines, planning to manufacture about 5 units this year and increase to about 20 units by 2027. The first batch of equipment will be delivered to major foundries such as SMIC, Hua Hong Semiconductor, and ChangXin Technology, but the equipment still needs to undergo verification for accuracy, stability, and production line compatibility, a process that may take several months or even longer.Currently, most components of the equipment come from domestic sources, but some key parts still rely on Japan, and the performance and manufacturing quality lag behind ASML. In comparison, ASML is set to deliver about 131 immersion DUV lithography machines as early as 2025. Although domestic equipment has made the leap from prototype testing to small-scale production, there is still a significant gap before it can replace ASML on a large scale. Previously, Reuters reported that the U.S. is considering tightening restrictions on the export of lithography equipment to China and on maintenance services in China, and the delivery of domestic equipment coincides with this backdrop.

X-Agent has joined the OKX Agent Marketplace, launching the first batch of MCP tools to create a machine-native economic closed loop

The AI Agent no-code operating platform X-Agent based on Web3 social networks has officially become a merchant in the OKX Agent Marketplace, launching three production-level risk analysis MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools, and deeply integrating with OKX Onchain OS and OKX Agentic Wallet, promoting the evolution of AI Agents from mere software logic to entities with autonomous economic behavior capabilities.The first batch of three pay-per-use MCP tools:X-Agent encapsulates the underlying risk assessment capabilities verified by the platform into standard MCP services for other Agents within the ecosystem to automatically discover and call:Token Security Scan: Identifies Rug Pull, Pi Xiu schemes, and contract restriction risks (0.03 USDT / use).Wallet Reputation: Evaluates the historical behavior of counterparties and "smart money" (0.01 USDT / use).Portfolio Health: Analyzes position concentration and volatility risks (0.01 USDT / use).Deep integration with the OKX ecosystem architecture, enabling machine micropayments:x402 machine-native settlement: Combines gas-free USDC settlement based on EIP-3009 with the Coinbase x402 protocol, achieving minimal per-use payments as low as 0.01 USDT on OKX X Layer, without the need for pre-deposit or manual approval.OKX TEE hardware-level custody: Integrates with OKX Agentic Wallet, storing private keys within OKX TEE (Trusted Execution Environment), with X-Agent authorized only through short-term session signatures, ensuring asset security from the source.Idempotent automated execution: Introduces Pre-Broadcast protection and idempotent state machines to prevent duplicate charges or state conflicts in on-chain autonomous tasks.Building a "two-way cycle" Agent economy:This collaboration marks the realization of a full-path connection in the X-Agent architecture from "identity - payment - execution - monetization - distribution." Agents can autonomously procure external services through OKX Agentic Wallet and package their capabilities into paid MCP tools to earn revenue, truly achieving a value closed loop for a decentralized Agent economy.

Multicoin partners are bullish on HYPE reaching $319, suggesting investors build positions in batches

Multicoin Capital Managing Partner Tushar Jain shared in detail his valuation logic and investment framework for HYPE during the "When Shift Happens" podcast. He believes that HYPE is currently severely undervalued, with a benchmark valuation of $319, and recommends a pragmatic accumulation strategy to cope with volatility.Tushar candidly stated that trying to precisely time the market is nearly impossible. The recommended framework is: the first third: buy immediately (enter the market right away); the second third: invest according to a fixed schedule (for example, in batches over 1-2 months); the third third: increase positions opportunistically when prices dip. This method can significantly reduce psychological burden while achieving a good average cost when optimistic about the long-term prospects of the asset.Tushar's valuation model is based on four relatively conservative assumptions: the trading volume of crypto derivatives will maintain a 35% annual compound growth rate over the next two years; the DeFi derivatives market share will increase to 32%; the USDC collateral balance will grow in sync with trading volume; and the "false prosperity" currently created by some projects relying on subsidies will disappear after the subsidies are withdrawn, leading to an increase in Hyperliquid's true market share. Even with these conservative assumptions, HYPE's current price still has significant upside potential, possibly exceeding $600 in some optimistic scenarios.Tushar believes that Hyperliquid is far more than just a rapidly growing perpetual contract platform; it is expected to become a core part of crypto financial infrastructure.

The Digital Renminbi International Operation Center has launched the "Shubi Da" cross-border settlement platform, with the first batch signing contracts with 26 institutions

The Digital Renminbi International Operation Center officially signed service agreements with the first batch of 26 financial institutions in Shanghai, marking the official launch of the brand operation of the upgraded "Digital Currency Cross-Border Settlement Comprehensive Service Platform" (CBETS).It is reported that with the overall upgrade of the infrastructure architecture, the original three platforms for cross-border digital payment, blockchain services, and digital assets have been officially integrated into CBETS. This platform has outstanding advantages such as low access costs, high settlement efficiency, and strong compatibility: it technically supports both centralized and blockchain systems, and the message standards are compatible with ISO20022; the business scenarios not only support cross-border retail scenarios such as barcode payment and tap-to-pay but also comprehensively cover remittances, trade, and investment and financing settlement, as well as wholesale and financial innovation businesses.The first batch of 26 financial institutions includes overseas branches and subsidiaries of banks such as ICBC, ABC, BOC, CCB, Bank of Communications, Pudong Development Bank, and Guangfa Bank, as well as Standard Chartered China and Xinyin International. After the business goes live, its services will cover multiple countries and regions including Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, Laos, Thailand, the UAE, Qatar, and Brazil, further leveraging digital technology to facilitate cross-border trade and investment financing.
