Meta announced the acquisition of Butterfly Effect, the parent company of the Chinese AI star project Manus, for a price in the billions.

It is reported that the founder and CEO Xiao Hong's profile on the instant messaging app has a "btc holder" tag. Public information shows that he started buying BTC as early as 2013, and after the bull market in 2017, he significantly increased his investments in BTC for long-term holding, using it as a hedge against entrepreneurial risks and as a belief asset. This also gave him the courage to reject a $30 million acquisition offer from ByteDance during his AI startup period, ultimately leading to a billion-dollar exit with Meta.
