Tesla-SpaceX merger possibility raised, with bitcoin also in scope

Elon Musk has formalised the possibility of a merger between SpaceX and Tesla, saying each board has set up an independent special committee to review it, while cautioning that treating a deal as certain would be an exaggeration. A combined company would integrate assets including Grok, X, Starlink, Tesla’s robotaxi and Optimus, and projects such as Terafab chips and the Starmind orbital data centre plan. The companies hold 30,221 bitcoin in total.

Grok impressed by Charles Hoskinson\'s Cardano code experiment, calls it light-years ahead

Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok praised Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson’s experimental project, Quinelings, calling its technical ideas ahead of their time. The project visualises computer code as moving digital lifeforms in a virtual environment Hoskinson calls an “electronic ocean.” Users can observe how code maps to behaviours and explore self-referential “quine” structures through an SDK. Hoskinson says it could aid AI and programming experiments, though autonomy and practical value need verification.
