Canaan earnings show Q1 revenue collapse as BTC and ETH treasury nears $148M

The latest Canaan earnings also revealed a new split screen among Bitcoin minings best-known hardware suppliers: the company selling mining machines reported a much weaker quarter just as its own crypto holdings became harder to ignore.　　The ASIC maker said Q1 2026 revenue fell to $62.7 million, down from $196.3 million in the previous quarter and $82.8 million a year earlier.　　Its net loss widened to $88.7 million from $85.0 million in Q4, while non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss almost doubled to $76.3 million from $40.5 million.　　At the same time, Canaan ended March with 1,807.60 BTC and 3,951.53 ETH, a record crypto treasury for the company.　　At May 22 price levels of roughly $77,200 per BTC and $2,100 per ETH, that stack was worth about $148 million on a spot-market basis before accounting treatment, receivables, or liquidity constraints.　　That is the tension inside the quarter. Canaan still sells the machines that power Bitcoin mining, but the reported numbers increasingly make it appear to be a company with a weaker hardware cycle on one side and a growing BTC-linked balance sheet on the other. The decline also reflected weaker demand for Bitcoin mining following tighter miner economics.MetricQ1 2026ContextTotal revenue$62.7 millionDown from $196.3 million in Q4 2025Product

Meta (META) Begins 8,000 Job Cuts, Focus on AI Efficiency

Meta (META) has initiated the first wave of its planned 8,000 job cuts, starting with employees in Singapore, according to Bloomberg. Notifications reportedly went out at 4 a.m. local time, with additional layoffs expected in the U.S. and Europe later the same day. The cuts primarily target engineering and product teams as Meta pivots more resources toward artificial intelligence (AI).　　This restructuring is part of Meta‘s ongoing efficiency drive, which CEO Mark Zuckerberg began in 2023 with a major workforce reduction dubbed the “Year of Efficiency.” Since late 2022, the company has cut over 21,000 jobs in multiple phases. These efforts aim to streamline operations, flatten management layers, and fund Meta’s aggressive investment in AI development.　　Meta is not alone in this trend. Big Tech firms are rapidly trimming staff to allocate resources toward AI initiatives. A total of 49,135 layoffs have been reported across U.S. companies in 2026 alone due to AI integration, according to Challenger, Gray & Christmas. In the crypto sector, companies like Block, Coinbase, and Crypto.com have also downsized this year, citing similar operational shifts.　　Meta‘s AI spending is raising eyebrows on Wall Street. The company has already allocated more than $100 billion toward AI projects and is planning

Kucoin Pushes Earn-and-Loan Product as ETF Capital Pulls Crypto Into New Split

Reflecting a broader industry shift from simple order-matching to advanced capital management, Kucoin has introduced an integrated “earn-and-loan” solution. The product eliminates a primary friction point for digital asset holders by allowing them to unlock through borrowing while simultaneously earning passive yield on their collateral.　　The product uses a single-position architecture instead of isolated margin accounts. Users can pool high- assets such as , ether, , USDC and into a unified framework to manage liabilities and track their macro loan-to-value (LTV) ratio under one dashboard. The platform manages risk via a three-tier collateral framework, starting with the initial level, the marginal call and level, which is the critical boundary where the platform liquidates assets to prevent bad debt.　　The launch arrives amid a stark market divide: institutional capital is flowing into regulated spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs), while crypto-native traders remain on-chain optimizing for yield. When questioned by News on where this product fits, Kucoin stated that exchanges must look beyond matching orders.　　“We believe that exchanges are evolving far beyond mere trading venues; they are transforming into comprehensive digital financial infrastructure,” the exchange stated. “As institutional capital pours into the market via regulated vehicles like spot ETFs, and crypto-native users continue to aggressively

Polymarket Smart Contract Breached: Will POL USD Crash?

Polygons reputation as a reliable DeFi settlement layer is under renewed scrutiny after on-chain investigator ZachXBT flagged an apparent exploit of the Polymarket UMA CTF Adapter contract, the mechanism that resolves prediction market outcomes.　　This latest hack on the most prominent prediction market platform has led to POL dropping nearly -1% in the past hour, with the token trading at around $0.091. However, depending on how deep the losses go, POL could still drop further.　　The compounding incidents raise a harder structural question about Polygon‘s positioning as the default settlement chain for high-profile prediction and derivatives platforms, and whether the network’s ongoing development roadmap is moving fast enough to maintain that status.　　Warning: #Polymarkets contract appears to be exploited, and the attacker is stealing funds.　　ZachXBT Reacts to Polymarket Hack: What is the Damage？　　The attackers address, 0x8F98075db5d6C620e8D420A8c516E2F2059d9B91, has since dispersed proceeds across 15 separate wallets, a pattern consistent with early-stage laundering. What the final damage figure looks like and whether POL absorbs the reputational hit remain the questions traders are watching.　　According to ZachXBT‘s public alert, attackers were draining approximately 5,000 POL every 30 seconds at the time of the warning, with confirmed losses reaching at least $520,000 and climbing toward $600,000.
