OpenAI pulls promotional materials around Jony Ive deal

OpenAI appears to have pulled a much-discussed video promoting the friendship between CEO Sam Altman and legendary Apple designer Jony Ive (plus, incidentally, OpenAI's $6.5 billion deal to acquire Ive and Altman's device startup io) from its website and YouTube page. Does that suggest something is amiss with the acquisition, or with plans for Ive to lead design work at OpenAI? Not exactly, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who reports that the 'deal is on track and has NOT dissolved or anything of the sort.' Instead, he said a judge has issued a restraining order over the io name, forcing the company to pull all materials that used it. And indeed, an earlier report at Bloomberg Law noted that AI device maker IYO has brought a trademark lawsuit against OpenAI, with the judge suggesting she's open to IYO's argument that OpenAI's promotional video might already be creating consumer confusion. TechCrunch has reached out to OpenAI for comment. For now, at least, the video remains viewable on X.

Bitcoin sinks below $99,000 as U.S. strikes on Iran trigger crypto market sell-off

Bitcoin fell to its lowest level since May over the weekend, as rising tensions in the Middle East and renewed inflation fears triggered a sharp selloff across digital assets. Bitcoin dropped below the $99,000 mark on Sunday — its lowest point in more than a month — as the crypto market became the first to react to escalating geopolitical risk. Bitcoin is trading around $99,380, down more than 2% over the past 24 hours, while ether has dropped 5% to below $2,200. Solana, XRP, and dogecoin also posted sharp losses, dragging the entire crypto complex deep into the red. The selloff appears to be a combination of geopolitical shock and macroeconomic concern. Iran has reportedly threatened to block the Strait of Hormuz — a vital shipping lane that handles about 20% of global oil supply. JPMorgan warns that a full closure could drive oil prices as high as $130 per barrel. One prominent macro research firm notes that such a spike could send U.S. inflation back toward 5% — a level not seen since March 2023, when the Fed was still actively raising rates. That outlook has traders reassessing the path of interest rates — and rotating out of speculative assets like crypto. While bitcoin is often pitched as an inflation hedge, it's currently behaving more like a high-beta tech stock. According to crypto data provider Kaiko, bitcoin's correlation with the tech-heavy Nasdaq has climbed sharply in recent weeks, after hitting a multi-month low earlier this year — a period that coincided with surging inflows into spot bitcoin ETFs. Institutional positioning also appears to have shifted. More than $1.04 billion flowed into spot bitcoin ETFs from Monday through Wednesday last week, according to data from CoinGlass. But those inflows collapsed heading into the weekend, with zero net movement Thursday and just $6.4 million on Friday — coinciding with President Donald Trump's early G7 departure and the announcement of a two-week review of U.S. options on Iran. The technical breakdown added fuel to the selloff. CoinGlass research shows bitcoin's drop below $99,000 triggered forced selling across offshore derivatives platforms like Binance and Bybit. At its peak on Sunday, more than $1 billion in crypto positions were liquidated during a 24-hour span — with over 95% coming from long bets, underscoring just how overexposed the market was heading into the weekend.

Tigo Energy and BayWa r.e. Empower High-Wattage C&I Solar in Thailand

CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tigo Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: TYGO) ('Tigo' or 'Company'), a leading provider of intelligent solar and energy software solutions, today announced that the Company will share a trade show booth with BayWa r.e. at the annual ASEAN Sustainable Energy Week 2025, from July 2-4, at the QSNCC in Bangkok, Thailand. At the show, Tigo will focus on supporting Commercial and Industrial (C&I) solar installers and engineering, procurement, and construction specialists (EPCs) as enforcement of new rapid shutdown requirements begins, deploying high-wattage modules in high-irradiance regions, and ensuring Total Quality Solar (TQS) through Tigo service programs. For solar projects in hot, humid, and high-irradiance (>1000W/m 2) regions like Southeast Asia, the Tigo TS4-X family of MLPE devices provides the latest in optimization, monitoring, and safety for solar installers deploying high-wattage modules, including supporting the increased backside gains of modern bifacial modules. The TS4-X product line gives installers more freedom to deploy the modules that deliver the power and performance for their customer deployments, reduce labor costs with a no-bolt design and no need for additional ground wiring, and contribute to improving Levelized Cost Of Energy (LCOE) in the large-scale solar sector. Tigo MLPE devices pair with an industry-leading list of third-party solar inverters to deliver design and installation flexibility for solar installers and EPCs. 'Thailand's rooftop solar market is growing rapidly and so is the demand for safer, smarter systems,' said Junrhey Castro, managing director at BayWa r.e. Solar Systems. 'As a regional distributor, we're committed to supporting this growth with reliable solutions that protect both the performance and investment of our customers. Having Tigo in our product portfolio reflects our focus on quality and innovation for solar professionals across Thailand and Southeast Asia.' In Thailand, Tigo will also invite installers to enroll directly in the Tigo Green Glove service program at the BayWa r.e. booth. The Green Glove service program is a premium support experience for installers of commercial and industrial (C&I) systems that enhances the installer experience and drives quality across the solar value chain with a process that includes a set of formalized support engagements for Tigo C&I installers before, during, and after the installation. 'Strong collaboration between global companies like BayWa r.e. and Tigo is part of what makes the solar ecosystem work for more installers and EPCs around the world,' said Jing Tian, chief growth and revenue officer at Tigo Energy. 'As with many of the pro-solar nations in Asia, we believe that products like the TS4-X and programs like Green Glove make great strides in further driving LCOE down, and Total Quality Solar up, respectively. In regions with higher-than-normal irradiance values in particular, these dynamics benefit the entire industry, from equipment manufacturer to installer, and on to the operators and asset owners.' ASEAN Sustainable Energy Week 2025 attendees are invited to visit BayWa r.e. and Tigo at booth F11 from July 2-4, at the QSNCC in Bangkok, Thailand.
