Five American tech giants will spend a total of $720 billion on AI infrastructure by 2026. Approximately equivalent to 80% of the annual military budget of the United States. That is to say, the annual expenses of the five companies are almost catching up with the annual expenses of the US military. Most of the money goes to data centers, Nvidia chips, and power plants. But few people talk about the latter half, These heavy assets will eventually have to find money. It's not a bank loan, it's a bond ABS、 The repurchase market is a traditional financial channel. -And among these pipelines, one has already been moved onto the chain, called Canton. Simply put, Canton is a blockchain specifically designed for banks. The blockchain that ordinary people understand is a ledger like Bitcoin that can be viewed by the whole world, Canton, on the other hand, the ledger can only be viewed by both parties involved in the transaction, Others may not be able to see, but regulation can investigate. This is a prerequisite that banks are willing to use. CoinDesk data from December last year, Canton's tokenized assets under custody amount to $6 trillion, with a daily trading volume of $300 billion. The investors are mostly top tier. BlackRock，Blackstone， NASDAQ, S&P Global, Goldman Sachs, Citadel Securities， Basically a whole table of people on Wall Street. -Coincidentally, this week Bitget Launchpool launched the Canton (CC) issue, Prize pool of 1.8 million, lock BGB, USDGO, CC three pools to choose from, The deadline is 10:00 UTC on May 1st. The BGB pool is the largest among the three pools, with rewards accounting for the majority, I already have BGB in my hand, but I won't change the principal and will eat an extra CC. There is no BGB in hand but USDGO, and the threshold for the second pool is low, 50 U-locks, suitable for people who don't want to buy new coins. The CC pool is more like a vote of faith, only those who are optimistic about the long-term price of CC will choose it. Simply put, Launchpool is a zero cost option, The principal will be returned through the original payment method upon maturity, The extra CC, whether it rises or falls, is picked up for nothing, The only cost is 7-day liquidity. Canton's institutional chain has seen consecutive positive developments, CIP-0114 was approved, and DTCC moved to the US Treasury in the past two weeks. AI is competing for computing power, while institutions are competing for infrastructure, Retail investors can at least get a share of Launchpool. @bitget
