Canaan Technology's ADS will be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and an extension of the minimum share price compliance period has been applied for.
Odaily Odaily reports that Bitcoin mining company Canaan Technology has announced that its American Depositary Shares (ADSs) have been officially transferred from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the stock code CAN remaining unchanged. The transfer will not affect its normal trading. Canaan Technology also revealed that it received a minimum share price compliance notice from Nasdaq on January 14, 2026, due to its ADS closing price remaining below $1 for 30 consecutive trading days. The original compliance period ended on July 13. After transferring its listing, it applied for an additional 180-day grace period on July 6. If approved, it will have more time to restore compliance, at which point it will need to maintain its ADS closing price above $1 for at least 10 consecutive trading days within the applicable period.

The United States should not place itself as a bystander in building this future."

JPMorgan: Open source weight commercialization exhibits a "winner-takes-all" phenomenon; Zhipu target price raised to HK$2,000, MiniMax target price cut to HK$300.
According to BlockBeats, on July 8th, JPMorgan Chase released a research report stating that currently competitive models in the market can expand adoption through open-source weighting and continue to monetize through official APIs, partner channels, enterprise deployments, and workflow products; while weaker models face faster price comparisons and traffic fragmentation. JPMorgan Chase raised its revenue forecasts for Zhipu from 2026 to 2030 by 3% to 9%, and narrowed its adjusted loss forecasts for 2026 and 2027 to RMB 3.711 billion and RMB 3.141 billion respectively. The 2028 forecast was revised from a loss of RMB 1.287 billion to a profit of RMB 2.367 billion. The target price was raised from HKD 1800 to HKD 2000, maintaining an "Overweight" rating. The report believes that the performance of GLM-5.5/6, KimiK3, and DeepSeekV4.1 will be key indicators of whether Zhipu can maintain its leading position. JPMorgan lowered its revenue forecasts for MINIMAX-W (2027-2030) by 2% to 8%, and reduced its target price from HK$400 to HK$300, while maintaining a "neutral" rating. The company noted that the M3 model offers a permanent 50% discount, reflecting that the model has not yet created a significant capability premium for leading domestic competitors. JPMorgan believes that if MiniMax can narrow the capability gap, normalize the discount, maintain API usage, and demonstrate stronger workflow stickiness through MiniMaxCode, its outlook could turn positive.
Analysis: Bitcoin mining companies are shifting towards AI infrastructure, and their performance continues to outperform Bitcoin.
PANews reported on July 8th that, according to BIT analysis, AI-related stocks such as semiconductors and memory chips have recently undergone a round of valuation repricing, resulting in a slight price correction. However, Bitcoin mining companies have significantly outperformed Bitcoin. In fact, since the beginning of 2025, Bitcoin mining company stocks have risen by 167%, while Bitcoin has fallen by 35% over the same period. This divergence, which began in the third quarter, now appears to be more of a structural change than a short-term fluctuation. As mining companies gradually transform into AI infrastructure providers, the market is beginning to re-evaluate these companies using different valuation logics. If this round of correction in the AI sector stabilizes, some Bitcoin mining companies may still be worth watching.
