To accelerate power acquisition, data centers are experimenting with the "battery + natural gas" combination model.
According to energy storage project announcements tracked by BloombergNEF, many battery systems are being colocated with on-site fossil fuel power generation equipment at data centers, including some of the world’s largest AI data center complexes. The batteries are used to provide more reliable electricity to data centers, fill power generation gaps, and help prevent damage to gas turbines; however, this model also results in the emission of greenhouse gases that contribute to climate warming and causes local air pollution.

Brazilian Finance Minister: Brazil aims to regulate the critical minerals sector without offering tax breaks
Given the strong global demand, developing critical minerals in Brazil does not require large-scale fiscal incentives. He pointed out that major economies are already seeking to establish partnerships with the largest economy in Latin America. Durigan, who just took over the Ministry of Finance last month, stated in his new office that critical minerals will be a priority item in the "Eco Invest" projects for the auctions in May or June. This project attracts foreign investment through a blended financing model.

Besenet says policies have already begun to change the current state of the U.S. economy
He stated that, according to data from the Ministry of Finance, nearly half of taxpayers have already benefited from one of the current administration's core policy measures. Real wages are rising. The income gap caused by the surge of inflation during Biden's administration—when prices of key living categories soared much faster than nominal wage growth—is expected to gradually narrow.

Tennessee imposes a complete ban on crypto ATMs, escalating regulatory efforts to combat fraud
According to Odaily, Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has signed a bill banning the operation of cryptocurrency ATMs statewide, making it the second state after Indiana to implement a comprehensive ban.
The bill (HB 2505) has officially taken effect and will be enforced starting July 1. According to the regulations, installing or operating a "virtual currency kiosk" (i.e., Bitcoin ATM) will be considered a Class A misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in jail and a $2,500 fine. Additionally, merchants allowing such devices on their premises will also bear legal responsibility.
Currently, most U.S. states have strengthened regulation through licensing regimes and transaction limits, but outright bans remain rare. Data shows that since 2026, 30 states have proposed related legislation, with 20 having passed laws, indicating a continued tightening on crypto ATM scam risks.
