JPMorganChase Reaches Women's Sports Fans Via Togethxr
JPMorganChase is leveraging media and commerce company Togethxr to engage women's sports fans without official league sponsorships. At events like the Women's Final Four and WNBA All-Star Weekend, Chase activates through pop-up shops, podcasts, and cardholder perks. The bank found only 5-6% overlap between WNBA and NBA card transactions, indicating a distinct audience that is younger and more affluent. Togethxr, founded by athletes Alex Morgan, Sue Bird, Chloe Kim, and Simone Manuel, operates near major events without being a sanctioned partner. This partnership provides brands without league rights a way to reach dedicated fans. The women's elite sports market is projected to reach $3 billion in 2026, driving media companies to offer alternative access points. Chase's strategy focuses on acquiring a new customer base beyond its existing men's sports sponsorships.
NYSE Parent ICE and OKX Plan 24/7 Tokenized Stock Trading
Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), operator of the New York Stock Exchange, and crypto exchange OKX have announced plans for their joint venture OKXICE to launch a trading venue for tokenized U.S. stocks, operating 24/7. The venue will offer about 60 tokenized stocks, including Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Tesla, JPMorgan Chase, Walmart, Coinbase, Robinhood, Circle, and SpaceX. Trading will occur on OKX's layer-2 network X Layer using Uniswap v4 permissioned liquidity pools, with settlement in stablecoins USDC, USDG, or USDT. Users will hold tokens in self-custody wallets, with underlying stocks held by tokenization providers. The move follows an SEC 'Innovation Exemption' allowing such venues to operate without registering as exchanges, subject to strict limits on volume and stock selection. ICE took a minority stake in OKX in March at a $25 billion valuation. Critics, including SIFMA and Better Markets, warn of market fragmentation and regulatory arbitrage.
Trump Unveils Super Intelligence Force Led by Clayton
President Trump has created a 'Super Intelligence Force' (SIF) to coordinate federal AI efforts and ensure U.S. dominance, following an executive order rebranding AI as 'super intelligence' (SI). Chaired by DNI Jay Clayton, who also serves as AI czar, the SIF includes FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson, Pentagon CTO Emil Michael, and OPM Director Scott Kupor as vice chairs. Reporting directly to Trump and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, the force has 120 days to produce a report on AI risks and opportunities. Trump described SI as 'bigger than the Industrial Revolution'. The administration opposes AI slowdowns, and a voluntary 'Accord on Super Intelligence' has been signed, outlining safety measures, though critics question enforceability. Privacy advocates worry about the intelligence community's $80 billion budget. Meanwhile, companies like OpenAI and Google have postponed releases due to safety concerns.
