According to Axios, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Thursday outlined an optimistic view of an agentic future, saying the company's mission to connect people will be strengthened by new AI tools and technologies. In a Facebook post and accompanying video ad, Zuckerberg said Meta has always aimed to give people the power to share, connect, and shape their world, and that the company wants AI benefits to be distributed to everyone. The ad is part of a broader paid and earned media campaign promoting Meta's AI vision, and it contrasts Meta's approach with rivals that, according to the ad, portray AI in more fear-driven and dystopian terms. Axios also reported that several AI companies are leaning more heavily on enterprise customers, while Meta is emphasizing broad, free and accessible technology.

Axe Compute, a Nasdaq-listed AI infrastructure company, said it has secured more than $1.3 billion in new customer contracts through its Axe Compute Build program, covering the U.S. and European markets. According to Odaily, the total exceeds the company’s previous $1 billion contract target for 2026. The contracts use five-year commitments with renewal options and include large upfront payments from customers. Axe Compute said it will provide customers with an integrated AI infrastructure service covering GPU selection, infrastructure design, deployment, ownership, and operations for AI training, inference, and data-intensive applications. The company said the projects are expected to begin generating revenue by the end of the fourth quarter of 2026. After upfront payments are received in the third quarter of 2026 and deployment is completed, annual recurring revenue is expected to exceed $384 million. CEO Christopher Miglino said the company expects to have an opportunity to add about $2 billion in signed contracts this year as demand for dedicated AI infrastructure increases.

According to the announcement from Binance, Binance Square is launching a new CreatorPad campaign that will let verified users complete simple tasks to compete for 2,390,000 BABY in rewards. The activity period runs from 2026-07-23 09:00 (UTC) to 2026-08-05 23:59 (UTC), and token voucher rewards are scheduled for distribution before 2026-08-25. The campaign is built around a leaderboard structure, with eligible participants earning points by completing tasks and improving their rank through original content and engagement. Binance said users must complete account verification (KYC) to receive rewards, while verified project accounts are not eligible. The announcement also states that only participation through Binance master accounts will qualify, and rewards are split between the BABY Global Project Leaderboard and the BABY Chinese Project Leaderboard, with 1,195,000 BABY allocated to each pool.\n\nCampaign Details\nDuring the activity period, users are instructed to join the campaign page and complete tasks to earn leaderboard points. The eligible tasks include creating short posts on Binance Square, following Babylon Labs’s account, and trading a minimum of $10 equivalent in BABY in a single transaction. Posts must contain at least 100 characters about the project, include the hashtag #baby, tag $BABY, and mention BabylonLabs_io (@BabylonLabs_io). The content must be relevant to Babylon Trustless Bitcoin Vaults (TBV), original, and free of irrelevant material. Binance also said participants may earn additional points by posting more engaging and higher-quality content. Eligible users can trade tokens via Binance Spot, Futures or Convert, although Futures trading volume is counted only when a position is closed with non-zero realized PnL and meets the stated value threshold after fees. The leaderboard snapshot date is 2026-08-05, and the project leaderboard data is shown with a T+2 delay.

According to the announcement from Binance, Binance VIP is introducing a limited-time 3x volume multiplier for stocks and bStocks trading. During the Eligible Period from 2026-07-23 08:00 (UTC) to 2026-09-23 23:59 (UTC), eligible users’ stocks and bStocks trading volume on Binance will be automatically counted at 3x the traded value toward their 30-day spot volume total for VIP tier qualification. The promotion applies to regular users and VIP 1 - 2 users, with no registration required. Binance said the multiplier is used only for VIP tier calculation and does not change actual trading volume. As an example, $500,000 in stocks and bStocks trading would count as $1,500,000 toward the 30-day spot volume total, which would be enough to meet the VIP 1 threshold of $1,000,000 and contribute toward VIP 2, which requires $5,000,000. The maximum VIP upgrade under this multiplier is capped at VIP 3, while users who are already VIP 3 or higher will not receive the multiplier boost, though their stock trading volume will still count toward the 30-day spot volume calculation. Binance also outlined the scope of the program and related trading access for stocks and bStocks. The eligible products cover all stocks and bStocks trading on Binance, and VIP levels are updated daily at 08:00 (UTC) based on the applicable requirements. Binance noted that VIP status is also subject to BNB holding requirements. For stocks trading, the platform said users can trade 7,000+ U.S.-listed stocks and ETFs, use one account for both crypto and stocks, and access fractional shares from $5. It also stated that stock trading is available 24/5 and that a limited-time fee discount applies until 2026-08-31 23:59 (UTC). For bStocks trading, Binance said users can trade 24/7 on the spot market, convert instantly between stocks and bStocks at a 1:1 ratio with no conversion fees, and use bStocks in DeFi applications, as collateral for margin trading, and for on-chain transfers to compatible BNB Smart Chain wallets. Binance described bStocks as being fully backed by real shares held at a regulated custodian, with dividends and splits processed automatically through the Multiplier mechanism.
