OpenAI founder Sam Altman recently addressed the company's collaboration with the U.S. War Department. According to NS3.AI, the discussions highlighted a significant difference in approach between OpenAI and Anthropic, another AI company that was close to securing an agreement with the Department. The divergence stemmed from Anthropic's preference for explicit operational control through contract clauses, contrasting with OpenAI's focus on layered technical safety measures and legal frameworks. This emphasis on safety technology over restrictive contractual clauses may have played a role in the Department's decision to collaborate with OpenAI.

The United States conducted airstrikes in the Middle East using artificial intelligence technology developed by Anthropic. According to Jin10, these operations occurred just hours after U.S. President Donald Trump announced a ban on Anthropic. The decision to employ AI in military actions highlights the ongoing integration of advanced technologies in defense strategies, despite recent regulatory measures. The timing of the strikes, in conjunction with the new restrictions, underscores the complex relationship between technological innovation and policy enforcement in the U.S. defense sector.

BTCS 首席战略官 Wojciech Kaszycki 表示，在市场持续低迷背景下，2026 年加密财库公司或出现整合趋势。其指出，目前部分公司股价低于所持加密资产净资产价值（NAV），处于折价交易状态。Kaszycki 认为，具备实际运营业务（如区块链验证者服务或公开、私募信贷产品）的公司因拥有现金流，更有能力收购仅持有加密资产但缺乏经营收入的企业。此外，其提到现实世界资产（RWA）代币化，尤其是公共与私募信贷资产的链上化，未来 24 个月内或显著增长，并可能成为金库公司的潜在收入来源。其还提及，全球最大的比特币金库公司 Strategy 向投资者提供类信用与固定收益工具，并将此作为纳入 MSCI 指数体系的重要论据之一。（Cointelegraph）

Lily Liu, President of the Solana Foundation, recently shared a screenshot on X of her previous controversial statement about not wasting time on cryptocurrencies. According to Odaily, she accompanied the post with a caption saying, "I don't eat pasta, but I'm happy to make pasta." The community speculates that Liu's response suggests she focuses on building rather than trading cryptocurrencies. Previously, Liu had jokingly echoed OpenClaw founder Peter Steinberger's remarks about not wasting time on cryptocurrencies, which led to significant backlash from the community.

Iran's cryptocurrency ecosystem is expected to grow significantly, reaching $7.78 billion by 2025, according to blockchain analysis firm Chainalysis. According to PANews, this growth rate surpasses that of the previous year. In 2019, Iran legalized cryptocurrency mining, allowing licensed operators to use subsidized electricity and sell mined Bitcoin to the central bank. Estimates in recent years suggest that Iran's share of global Bitcoin mining power ranges between 2% and 5%. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Iran's primary military force, has increasingly expanded its influence in the cryptocurrency sector. Chainalysis estimates that by the fourth quarter of 2025, addresses associated with the IRGC will account for over 50% of Iran's total cryptocurrency inflows, with more than $3 billion received last year. Another analysis by Elliptic found that Iran's central bank had accumulated at least $507 million in USDT by 2025, potentially aiding in stabilizing the rial's exchange rate and facilitating trade. However, this effort largely failed, as data shows the rial has depreciated by over 96% against the dollar. Meanwhile, ordinary Iranians have turned to Bitcoin, with a sharp increase in withdrawals from local exchanges to personal wallets during recent protests and internet disruptions.

U.S. President Donald Trump has announced that continuous strikes on Iran will persist for a week or longer. According to PANews, the White House has also declared a halt to all travel and photography activities, indicating that President Trump will not engage in any face-to-face interactions with reporters on that day. Furthermore, President Trump stated that Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei is "dead," and affirmed that the bombings by the U.S. and Israel on Iran will continue. However, a spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry refuted these claims, asserting that both Supreme Leader Khamenei and President Pezheshkian are "safe and sound." A source close to the Iranian Supreme Leader's office also confirmed that Khamenei is "firmly and steadily in control of the situation."

A fire erupted at the northeast side of Dubai's Burj Al Arab hotel in the early hours of March 1, local time. According to Odaily, the incident occurred around 1:30 a.m., waking some tourists who were resting at the time. They were evacuated through safety channels as smoke filled the hotel lobby. The fire has since been extinguished. Foreign media reports suggest that the incident may have been caused by a drone attack, though details are still pending confirmation.
