The Bank of Japan (BOJ) has decided to raise its key interest rate to 1% — the highest level since 1995. The decision was made on June 16 by a majority vote (7 to 1). The increase was 25 basis points, up from the previous 0.75%. Thus, Japan has returned to the 1% mark for the first time in 31 years, taking another decisive step away from the era of ultra-cheap money.

China launches mass production of silicon-28: a breakthrough for quantum computing
China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) has officially announced the start of mass production of silicon-28 with an isotopic purity exceeding 99.99%. This event marks the first time in the country's history that this high-purity material has been independently produced on a large scale.
Silicon-28 is a critical component for building silicon-based quantum computers. Its key advantage lies in its ability to significantly reduce the level of magnetic interference, which is one of the main challenges for the stable operation of qubits...

Regulatory Blow to Anthropic Spurs Interest in Decentralized AI: Cryptalist Analysis
The US authorities' blocking of access to the latest AI models from startup Anthropic has become a key catalyst for reassessing the risks of centralized systems. The incident on June 12, when the US government banned foreign citizens from using the Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models, and the company was forced to completely shut down these systems, clearly demonstrates the vulnerability inherent in the architecture of centralized control...

Withdrawal of crypto assets: strategies, risks, and practical recommendations for investors
The process of withdrawing funds from cryptocurrency platforms is one of the key operations for any market participant. Trust in an exchange or wallet directly depends on the speed, security, and transparency of this procedure. In my practice, I have repeatedly observed how even experienced traders overlook nuances related to fees, limits, and transaction processing times.

A key signal is the reversal in whale supply dynamics. On June 14, the twelve-day decline in the total supply held by addresses with a balance of 100 BTC or more gave way to steady growth...
