Odaily News: Avalanche Treasury Company (NASDAQ: AVAT), a digital asset treasury company in the Avalanche ecosystem, has announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2026. The company's board of directors has approved a $10 million share repurchase program for Class A common stock, aimed at addressing the market's undervaluation of the company and enhancing shareholder returns.

AVAT CEO Bart Smith stated that the company completed its business combination in Q2 and began trading on the Nasdaq on June 11. Despite pressure in the digital asset market, the Avalanche ecosystem continues to demonstrate growth momentum, with institutions gradually transitioning from exploration to practical applications in stablecoins, asset tokenization, payments, and real-world assets (RWA).

Financial data shows that AVAT reported a net loss of $44.7 million in Q2, with a loss of $1.54 per share. Of this total, approximately $35.7 million in losses stemmed from market value fluctuations in AVAX holdings, including changes in fair value, realized losses, and impairment charges; an additional approximately $15.2 million represented one-time transaction costs associated with completing the business combination, while core administrative expenses amounted to approximately $3.5 million.

As of June 30, 2026, AVAT held approximately 15.3 million AVAX tokens, with a holding value of approximately $100 million based on period-end prices. The company generated $1.5 million in net staking income from staking AVAX during Q2, bringing cumulative staking income for the first half of 2026 to $3.6 million. (Businesswire)

Odaily Planet Daily News NVIDIA (NVDA.O) will release its fiscal 2027 second-quarter earnings report after the US market closes on Wednesday. Wall Street generally expects the company to continue delivering strong growth, but investors' focus has shifted beyond just how much revenue can grow to whether AI capital expenditure can be sustained and whether NVIDIA can reduce its dependence on a few hyperscale customers.

The options market has already priced in significant post-earnings volatility. Based on current options prices, traders expect NVIDIA's stock to move approximately 6% in either direction by the end of this week. Based on Tuesday's closing price, a 6% upside could push the stock to around $225, approaching the record above $236 set in May; a 6% downside could see it fall back below $202.

So far this year, NVIDIA's stock is still up 14%, but it has retreated more than 10% from its May high. More notably, NVIDIA's stock has fallen on the day following each of its last four quarterly earnings releases. Morgan Stanley analysts recently said they are not optimistic that this trend will reverse. (CNBC)

Odaily News - At the 2026 Wyoming Blockchain Symposium, CZ stated that Trump had previously mentioned Hyperliquid, and that CFTC Chairman Mike Selig would look for a path to bring the platform into the U.S. market. CZ believes that if Hyperliquid can operate in the U.S. in a compliant manner, it will open the door for perpetual contracts and more decentralized services to enter the U.S., serving as a major positive for the entire crypto industry. CZ noted that because of his stake in Binance, outsiders tend to view him as a supporter of centralized exchanges, but his fundamental reason for entering the crypto industry is his belief in decentralization. Some users choose Hyperliquid because the platform allows them to use it via wallet without requiring a traditional account or KYC process. CZ said that Hyperliquid's entry into the U.S. will not only benefit itself—more decentralized products and companies in its portfolio will also benefit—and it will bring more liquidity to international centralized exchanges, giving U.S. users more competitive prices when buying and selling crypto assets. At this stage, the crypto market is far from saturated, and competition between platforms is not the primary issue.

Odaily News - Wall Street's focus now goes beyond Nvidia's (NVDA.O) expected stellar second-quarter earnings, extending to AI-related credit exposure that could reach $200 billion by 2028. Investors want Nvidia to further clarify off-balance-sheet commitments related to AI infrastructure financing, supply, and power.

Despite these market concerns, Nvidia's second-quarter revenue is still expected to nearly double to $92.2 billion, driven primarily by continued robust demand in data centers. (Jin10)
