Blockchain analytics firm Elliptic Enterprises Ltd. has raised $120 million in a new funding round backed by Deutsche Bank AG and Nasdaq Inc. ’s venture arm, as large financial institutions expand their digital-asset offerings. The round, which was led by investment firm One Peak Partners LLP , values the startup at $670 million, the company said on Tuesday. London-based Elliptic will use the fresh injection of cash to expand adoption of its services and grow its global presence, Chief Executive Officer Simone Maini said in an interview. British Business Bank also invested in the round, Elliptic said, in addition to participation from existing backers including JPMorgan Chase & Co and AlbionVC . Founded in 2013, Elliptic is one of the most well-known analytics firms that develops software enabling companies and law enforcement to monitor cryptocurrency transactions and detect illicit activities, including money laundering and sanctions evasion. While crypto markets have been battered by a months-long rout, demand for Elliptic’s services has grown as traditional financial firms and financial technology companies launch digital-asset products that require compliance tools, Maini said. “For us, this is an important moment,” Maini said. “Performing compliance operations at scale is not a future activity, it’s an operational necessity.” Read More: Wall Street Firms Post Dozens of Crypto Jobs — With a Catch Banks, asset managers and exchanges have deepened a push in crypto over the past year, including by offering digital-asset investment products and developing blockchain-based forms of money for payments. The increase in activity has been spurred by a friendlier regulatory environment under President Donald Trump, who embraced the sector during his 2024 electoral campaign. Morgan Stanley rolled out cryptocurrency trading on its E*Trade platform earlier this month, while JPMorgan late last year started offering a token called JPM Coin — which represents dollar deposits a...

adventtr China’s role in the global technology supply chain continued to expand in April, with the country’s high-tech exports surging 39.2% year over year. The sharp increase highlights Beijing’s growing influence across industries tied to artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing, and digital infrastructure. High-tech products now account for more than one-quarter of China’s total exports, reflecting the country’s accelerating transition from a low-cost manufacturing hub into a central pillar of the global technology ecosystem. The trend comes as worldwide demand for AI-related infrastructure continues to climb. While artificial intelligence is often associated with software and data models, the sector also depends heavily on a vast physical industrial network. Data centers, semiconductors, servers, electronic components, batteries, cooling systems, power equipment, and industrial machinery all play critical roles in supporting AI development and deployment. China remains deeply embedded across many of these supply chains, either through direct production or the sourcing of key materials and components. As investment in AI infrastructure grows globally, China’s expanding high-tech export footprint underscores how closely the future of artificial intelligence is tied to international manufacturing and industrial capacity.

TwilightEye/E+ via Getty Images Thesis Summary Intel ( INTC ) is arguably one of the most divisive companies in the market right now. After being regarded as dead money for months, the stock has now doubled as semiconductor stocks have become the hottest trade on Wall Street. But is Intel really worth today’s price? The company lost the AI race, missed mobile, got crushed in CPUs, and spent years floundering in the market. And yet, I think there’s a real argument that Intel could one day become a trillion-dollar company. This would require the stock to trade at around $200, which would be another 50% rally from here We can definitely get there in the next 5 years, but likely the stock has run too far today, but for reasons I’ll discuss below, I maintain a Buy rating. Intel’s Problem Was Never Demand The mistake many investors make with Intel is assuming the company lacks relevance, and this is why many missed the boat. Even at its worst, Intel was still generating billions in sales. The real issue was execution, or lack thereof, something I highlighted in my last piece. For years, Intel lost market ground to competitors like Advanced Micro Devices ( AMD ), while failing to generate new sources of revenue. That destroyed investor confidence, and Intel became one of the stocks like PayPal ( PYPL ) that seems permanently undervalued. But two things over the last year changed everything for Intel. The Manufacturing Leap It’s been known for a while that Intel has made a big play to become a fab. In other words, it wants to build out the capacity to actually make chips. During the early days, investors were sceptical of this move, since it requires massive upfront investment, and the market is dominated by Taiwan Semi ( TSM ). But in the face of what we’ve seen in the last few months, it’s hard not to see this as a brilliant move. There’s a very real bottleneck in AI manufacturing. Memory is the standout, which is not something Intel does, but we’re seeing bottlenecks eve...
