ME News report, June 1 (UTC+8). According to BlockBeats, Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas revealed that several market participants have proposed launching an S&P 500 ETF that does not include SpaceX stock.

He noted that there are currently about 24 ETFs related to SpaceX, but the actual demand for a “SpaceX exclusion” strategy may be overestimated. The controversy surrounding SpaceX mainly comes from active social media communities rather than mainstream investors. Earlier, the market had launched an S&P 500 ETF that excluded technology stocks, but it did not receive widespread attention. In the future, if SpaceX’s IPO succeeds, the market may see short or inverse SpaceX ETFs, allowing investors to manage risk. Additionally, he said

ByteDance is developing custom CPUs to meet the growing demand for AI infrastructure. Due to rising chip prices and long-term shortages, the company is accelerating its in-house development, planning to deploy self-developed CPUs in its own servers and data centers to support internal operations and prepare for large-scale deployment of proxy products like Coze. Currently, two architectural paths are being pursued in parallel: based on ARM and based on open-source RISC-V, to evaluate the best design for long-term data center needs. At the same time, they still purchase CPUs from Intel and AMD, but recent price increases from both vendors have accelerated the internal substitution process.

ByteDance plans to raise this year’s capital expenditures to about $70 billion, to expand AI infrastructure, with a budget of RMB 4000–5000 billion; if the environment is favorable, it could increase to about $100 billion, or even as high as $100 billion, next year. Its expansion scale is far beyond that of domestic peers. Although Tencent and Alibaba have also made investments, it is difficult to match ByteDance’s single-year scale. Affected by chip export controls, the low costs in China remain a key advantage. The company is supplementing computing power through its own data centers and customized ASICs, while also advancing AI research and development. Its valuation is about $550 billion, and future spending will be adjusted on a quarterly basis.

The account-opening threshold has been raised step by step—from utility and water/electricity bills to overseas passports—making identity a rare, hard currency and enabling asset allocations such as U.S. stocks and overseas insurance. With regulators’ crackdown finally landing, the price of “identity insurance” has jumped, and this intergenerational transfer will continue to push up the value of overseas identities.
