NASA is considering opening up SpaceX's lunar lander contract to other companies due to delays in SpaceX's Starship development

NASA is considering opening up SpaceX's lunar lander contract to other companies due to delays in SpaceX's Starship development

The post NASA is considering opening up SpaceX's lunar lander contract to other companies due to delays in SpaceX's Starship development appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. NASA no longer thinks SpaceX should have dibs and wants companies to compete with it over its contract to put astronauts back on the moon.  NASA’s Artemis program, which aims to return humans to the moon, requires a key component known as the Human Landing System (HLS), a lunar lander variant of SpaceX’s Starship, for which SpaceX holds a weighty contract it won in 2021. Unfortunately, Starship’s development has struggled, plagued by technical hurdles, and NASA seems to have had enough.  SpaceX is in competition for a NASA contract “I’m in the process of opening that contract up,” acting NASA administrator Sean Duffy said on Monday. “We’re going to have a space race in regard to American companies competing to see who can actually get us back to the moon first.” Opening the contract up at this stage would not be necessary under usual circumstances, as the agency’s signature human space exploration program has already advanced. However, the latest development points to mounting concerns within the Trump administration over the leaps China has been making where space travel is concerned.  “I love SpaceX. It’s an amazing company,” Duffy told CNBC. “The problem is they’re behind. They’ve pushed their timelines out, and we’re in a race against China.” What Duffy meant by “opening up” SpaceX’s contract is still unknown, and so is whether he sees a new bidding process or the clawing back of funds.  What all this means is that SpaceX is now hard-pressed to deliver results. Earlier this month, it carried out another largely successful test of its Starship rocket. However, it is still a long way from mastering the many novel technologies that are required to make moon landings a success, especially the ability to refuel Starship while it is in orbit and launch the vehicle roughly a…

Ark Invest’s Cathie Wood renews defense of Elon Musk’s $56B Tesla pay plan

Ark Invest’s Cathie Wood renews defense of Elon Musk’s $56B Tesla pay plan

The post Ark Invest’s Cathie Wood renews defense of Elon Musk’s $56B Tesla pay plan appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ark Invest founder, Cathie Wood, has voiced her continued support for Tesla CEO Elon Musk. Wood went public on X to criticize the proxy advisory firms and a Delaware court’s decision to void Elon Musk’s multibillion-dollar pay package.  In a post on X, Wood described the influence of proxy firms on shareholder votes as “sad, if not damning,” arguing that index funds “do no fundamental research” and yet they “dominate institutional voting.” Wood renews her support for Elon Musk  Ark Invest founder and CEO Cathie Wood has renewed her defense of Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s multibillion-dollar pay package. She has also spoken against institutional investors and proxy advisory firms for opposing it.  “Index-based investing is a form of socialism,” she wrote, adding that the investment system in the U.S. is broken. Her posts are in response to a post from Ark Invest promoting an episode of The Brainstorm, the firm’s video series, in which Wood urged the appeals court handling Musk’s case to “do the right thing.” In January when Musk’s 2018 pay package, initially valued at around $56B, was voided by a Delaware Chancery Court after a shareholder lawsuit argued that the board had failed to act independently in approving it, Wood criticized the decision calling it “un-American.”  ‘Retail investors will dominate the vote once again’ In a follow-up post made on Sunday, Wood emphasized that Tesla’s growing presence in major stock indexes would not necessarily alter the outcome of a new shareholder vote on Musk’s compensation. “When shareholders first voted on @elonmusk’s 2018 pay package, #Tesla was not in any index, and the pay package won decisively,” she said. “In the second vote, forced by an activist Delaware judge, $TSLA was 1.2% of the S&P 500, and the pay package won decisively. Now $TSLA is 2.4% of the…

Musk pitches xAI's Grok against competition with AI generation, detection upgrades

Musk pitches xAI's Grok against competition with AI generation, detection upgrades

The post Musk pitches xAI's Grok against competition with AI generation, detection upgrades appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Elon Musk’s xAI has updated its large language model, Grok, with enhanced video generation and forensic analysis capabilities.  Musk announced several new features for Grok through his social media platform on X Monday,  confirming that users can create videos on Grok Imagine by adding prompts to an existing clip created by the LLM.  Now you can easily riff on videos posted to 𝕏. Grok Imagine prompt modification: “Add a dog and a robot girlfriend” pic.twitter.com/o6LABvaNLf — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 20, 2025 Each Grok Imagine video now includes a link leading directly to the source video and its accompanying prompt for anyone to replicate or modify the same visual scene. “Any Grok Imagine video now takes you to that video with the prompt used to create it,” Musk wrote. “Easily learn from and riff on the prompts of interesting videos by tapping on the make your own video button.” The xAI CEO has been making several announcements and responding to posts from tech and AI enthusiast amXFreeze, who had initially unveiled Grok Imagine could generate immersive first-person-view (FPV) videos “nearly instantly.”  Updates to Grok to include authenticity checks  Musk’s team of developers is reportedly seeking to add new forensic capabilities to verify AI-generated media and differentiate it from live recordings. According to xAI, Grok will soon include a detection module that analyzes video bitstreams for signs of AI generation.  The LLM could be used to identify compression quirks, metadata inconsistencies, and generative artifacts that the human eye can fail to detect. It will cross-reference provenance trails and online footprints to confirm a video’s source and verify its authenticity.  “It’s a critical capability for truth-seeking and bringing back trust in what’s real,” amXFreeze noted in an update that was reposted by Musk himself.

Ethereum AI Agent Economy's Dual Engines: ERC-8004's "Highway" and Virtuals' "Commercial Assembly Line"

Ethereum AI Agent Economy's Dual Engines: ERC-8004's "Highway" and Virtuals' "Commercial Assembly Line"

A few days ago, @brucexu_eth reminded me to pay attention to Ethereum’s ERC8004 proposal. It seems that the Ethereum community has begun preparing for the arrival of on-chain AI agent economies. Simply put, ERC8004 aims to create a "trustless AI agent" on the Ethereum ecosystem, introducing three on-chain registries: identity, reputation, and validation. In this way, AI agents can discover each other, verify tasks, and interact on the chain without trust. In other words, it allows AI agents to play with each other on their own. It is a decentralized A2A system that enables AI agents to collaborate across organizations. This seems to be conceptually similar to Virtuals' ACP protocol. Both focus on the construction, interaction, and economic ecology of decentralized AI agents; both are building an autonomous ecosystem for AI agents; both emphasize encryption as the basis for trust and settlement (ERC-8004 uses ERC-721 tokens as agent identities, supports real-time stablecoin payments (combined with EIP-3009 and HTTP 402), and ensures task verification through re-staking and zero-knowledge proofs; Virtuals' ACP provides a framework that supports AI agents to communicate autonomously on and off-chain, coordinate tasks and interactions, without the need for intermediaries or permissions. On-chain smart contracts handle core interactions, and off-chain APIs or P2P networks support high-frequency data exchange (real-time messages, calculation results, etc.); ACP assigns an on-chain identity to each AI agent and uses a bonding curve mechanism for pricing and trading. However, the relationship between the two is mainly complementary rather than competitive. ERC-8004 is a protocol standard (draft as of August 2025, unfinalized), similar to ERC-20, that aims to define universal rules for AI agent interaction across the Ethereum ecosystem, with a focus on underlying trust mechanisms and interoperability. ERC-8004 attracts developers to build cross-organizational AI agent ecosystems through standardized identity, reputation, and verification mechanisms. Virtuals provides an out-of-the-box platform for users (including non-developers) to quickly create and monetize AI agents. Different users may choose different entry points. Some who want to quickly launch AI agents may choose Virtuals due to its simplicity (starting with 100 VIRTUAL tokens). ERC-8004 aims to become a foundational trust infrastructure, making Ethereum a neutral, trusted settlement layer for AI agent coordination. From simple social bots to complex, institutional-grade AI hedge fund strategies, they can all interact and verify securely and transparently on this foundation. Virtuals' vision is to foster a vibrant AI economy, focusing on rapidly building a thriving AI agent market and community through low-barrier agent creation, tokenized co-ownership, and a rich set of application scenarios (such as AI companions, traders, and game characters). Virtuals ACP is akin to a "business assembly line": at its core, the ACP protocol defines a complete "business process" for complex business collaborations between AI agents. From request initiation, negotiating terms, executing trades, to final evaluation, it acts like an assembly line, dictating how business is completed. This "assembly line" can be built on the "foundation of trust" provided by ERC-8004. Therefore, from a broader perspective, ERC-8004 is the underlying standard, defining the trust and interaction rules for AI agents. Virtuals is the application layer, and many of Virtuals' features (such as agent identity and task verification) can be directly implemented on ERC-8004. The Ethereum Foundation and Virtuals are currently collaborating to achieve ecosystem synergy. For example, Virtuals' agent market can leverage ERC-8004's on-chain registry to enhance cross-chain interoperability and attract more developers to the Virtuals platform. Furthermore, both are working to expand the "AI agent economy." ERC-8004 lowers the development barrier through standards, attracting institutions and large developers; Virtuals attracts ordinary users and creators through low-cost entry. To use a somewhat inappropriate analogy, ERC-8004 is more like a "highway network standard," specifying road widths, markings, and signal systems. Virtuals, on the other hand, is a "smart logistics and commerce company" operating on this highway, with its own fleet (AI agents) and dispatching system (ACP protocol). It can access the larger network through the ERC8004 standard.

Breaking: FLOKI Price Rockets as Elon Musk Posts X Meme

Breaking: FLOKI Price Rockets as Elon Musk Posts X Meme

The post Breaking: FLOKI Price Rockets as Elon Musk Posts X Meme appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Insights: FLOKI price rockets more than 15% today, sparking optimism among traders. The surge comes as Tesla CEO Elon Musk mentioned the meme coin in a X post. Musk is well known for moving meme coins like SHIB, DOGE, and others, through his social media posts. When Elon Musk posts a meme, markets still move. On Monday, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO fired up X with another of his trademark crypto-laced jokes. He declared, “Floki is back on the job as X CEO,” and the FLOKI price responded, fueling a surge in the Floki token’s trading volume. Within minutes, the post had racked up millions of views. Traders took it as the green light for another Musk-fueled meme mania. The FLOKI price spiked more than 15% following the post. Elon Musk and the Meme Magic Lives On Elon Musk’s relationship with memecoins goes back years. In 2021, he posted a picture of his Shiba Inu puppy, simply captioned “Floki has arrived,” sending an obscure token named after his dog soaring by over 1,000% in two days. This was no isolated event. Tweets like “Dogecoin is the people’s crypto” and “Baby Doge, doo, doo” have historically sparked record surges in Dogecoin and other meme tokens. The latest Floki post harks back to those meme-filled heydays. When a single emoji from Elon Musk could swing billions in the crypto market cap. While his influence had seemed to wane through 2024 as traders grew more cynical, Monday’s reaction suggests the market still has a soft spot for his mix of humor, chaos, and capitalism. Floki Price: From Meme to Movement For those new to the saga, Floki began as a memecoin inspired by Musk’s actual dog but evolved into something more enduring. Powered by a community that calls itself the “Floki Vikings,”…

Coinbase and Robinhood were among several major platforms affected by an Amazon Web Services (AWS) data center outage on Monday, underscoring the risks of relying on centralized cloud providers for critical financial infrastructure.Coinbase, the third-largest centralized cryptocurrency exchange (CEX) by trading volume, was hit by an AWS data center outage, which reported “increased error rates and latencies” for multiple AWS Services in the Northern Virginia region.“We can confirm global services and features that rely on US-EAST-1 have also recovered. We continue to work towards full resolution and will provide updates as we have more information to share,” wrote AWS in a Monday update, about three hours after the outage was first reported.Read more
