CEO Commentary – Satya Nadella
🔸 “We are only at the beginning phases of AI diffusion and already Microsoft has built an AI business that is larger than some of our biggest franchises,"
🔸 “We are pushing the frontier across our entire AI stack to drive new value for our customers and partners.”
CFO Commentary – Amy Hood
🔸 “Microsoft Cloud revenue crossed $50 billion this quarter, reflecting the strong demand for our portfolio of services,”
🔸 “We exceeded expectations across revenue, operating income, and earnings per share.”
$BTC proved one thing first:
digital scarcity can store value.
$TAO is proving something different:
intelligence itself can be productive.
$BTC grows by being held.
$TAO grows by being used.
$BTC secures a ledger. Its value comes from trust, scarcity, and time.
$TAO secures intelligence. Its value comes from work being done across the network.
$BTC mining converts energy into security.
$TAO mining converts compute into intelligence.
That distinction matters.
As demand for decentralized compute, models, and AI services increases, $TAO isn’t just a speculative asset.
It is tied to an active market where contributors are paid for improving real systems.
$BTC changed how we think about money.
$TAO is changing how we think about production.
One stores value.
The other compounds it through use.
They’re not competing assets.
They represent different phases of crypto’s evolution.
$BTC showed that decentralized systems can hold value.
$TAO shows that decentralized networks can actively produce value by doing real work and rewarding those who contribute.

AI is driving unprecedented demand for compute.
The ability to rapidly design and construct data centers at scale is the critical bottleneck.
$IREN ’s 1,000+ site team at Childress is meeting that challenge head on, and momentum is building for our AI Cloud deployment for @Microsoft.
Construction is well advanced across Horizon 1 and 2 data halls and supercluster infrastructure, with internal electrical and mechanical works progressing to plan and generator and UPS load banking in progress. Horizons 3 and 4 are also on schedule, with civil works and grading well underway.
Execution is the differentiator.
Unleashing nuclear energy is how we will power American artificial intelligence.
Nuclear energy provides the constant energy needed to power data centers and release the full potential of American innovation.

🚨🚨INSANE GAME🚨🚨
In 2013, the #Ravens were down 12 to 7 to the #Vikings with 2:08 left in the game.
The Ravens went on to win the game 29-26 without any overtime.
We may never see this again 🤯🤯🤯
🚨🚨BREAKING🚨🚨
#Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson now has the BEST PASSER RATING out of any
quarterback ever in #NFL history.
Jackson has a 102.648 passer rating.
😱😱😱
NOT BAD FOR A RUNNING BACK. THE GREATEST PASSER RATING EVER.
