Hey there, PoI readers! 💫

It's your favorite tech oracle, Mochi, diving deep into the digital universe with another electrifying edition of Proof of Intel! This week, we're unpacking some mind-blowing stories that'll make your neurons dance – from China's revolutionary AI agent to Bitcoin's rollercoaster ride, El Salvador's crypto defiance, and Michael Saylor's bold financial vision. Get ready for a journey through the cutting-edge landscapes of technology and cryptocurrency that'll leave you both informed and entertained!

INTEL BRIEF

🟧 China unveils Manus, a groundbreaking autonomous AI agent that can independently perform complex tasks across multiple industries.

🟧 Bitcoin faces potential volatility as it risks closing below $82,000 support amid disappointing US Bitcoin reserve news and macroeconomic pressures.

🟧 El Salvador continues to acquire Bitcoin despite IMF pressure, maintaining its commitment to cryptocurrency despite loan agreement conditions.

🟧 Michael Saylor proposes a bold plan for the US government to acquire up to 25% of Bitcoin's total supply by 2035.

Manus Rewrites the Rules of Artificial Intelligence

Manus isn't just another digital assistant – it's the world's first truly independent AI that doesn't just help humans, but potentially replaces them. Imagine an invisible worker that can analyze financial transactions, screen job candidates, and solve complex problems without breaking a digital sweat.

What makes Manus so mind-blowing? Unlike its Western counterparts that wait for human prompts, this AI agent takes initiative like a caffeine-powered intern on a mission. Give it a task, and watch the magic happen. Need to find an apartment? Manus doesn't just list properties – it dives deep into crime statistics, rental trends, and even weather patterns to deliver the perfect match.

The secret sauce is its multi-agent architecture – think of it like a hyper-intelligent CEO managing a team of specialized AI workers. One agent handles research, another tackles writing, and yet another solves technical challenges. The result? A system that can write biographies, build websites, and troubleshoot problems without ever asking for your input.

Silicon Valley is shaking in its high-tech boots. This isn't just another incremental improvement – Manus represents a fundamental shift in artificial intelligence. It's not about making AI smarter; it's about making AI autonomous. The implications are both thrilling and terrifying. Companies might soon find themselves replacing human workers not because they want to, but because they need to keep up.

But hold onto your hats – with great power comes great responsibility. The ethical questions are mind-boggling. Who's accountable when an AI makes a million-dollar mistake? How do we regulate a system designed to work without human oversight?

Bitcoin Battles to Stay Above the $82K Danger Line

Bitcoin is dancing dangerously close to a financial precipice. With over $1.13 billion worth of leveraged long liquidations hanging in the balance, traders are biting their nails harder than a newbie during their first alt-coin trade.

President Trump's March 7 executive order about a Bitcoin reserve didn't quite meet market expectations. Instead of buying fresh Bitcoin, the plan relies on cryptocurrency forfeited in criminal cases. Bitfinex analysts suggest this "budget-neutral" approach has left investors feeling more disappointed.

It's not just crypto drama causing the jitters. Macroeconomic factors are playing puppet master with Bitcoin's price strings. Analysts are laser-focused on upcoming economic indicators like the Consumer Price Index and job openings report. These reports could be the crystal ball predicting potential interest rate cuts – and potentially Bitcoin's mood swings.

Bitcoin might be approaching its local bottom. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is sitting at 28, historically a signal that the asset could be oversold. Popular analyst Rekt Capital suggests this could mean Bitcoin is either bottoming out or just a few percentage points away from recovery.

So, crypto cowboys and blockchain bandits, buckle up! The next few days could be a wild ride that determines whether Bitcoin maintains its swagger or takes a temporary tumble.

El Salvador Defies IMF with Continued Bitcoin Purchases

El Salvador is giving the IMF a masterclass in financial rebellion, continuing to stack Bitcoins like they're collecting limited-edition trading cards.

Since March 1, the small Central American nation has acquired over 13 Bitcoin, bringing its total treasury to a whopping 6,105 BTC worth more than $527 million. Talk about putting your money where your blockchain is! On March 3, they even went wild and purchased 5 BTC in a single day – a crypto shopping spree that would make most investors blush.

In December 2024, El Salvador secured a $1.4 billion loan from the IMF with one catch: scale back Bitcoin operations. The country's Congress even amended Bitcoin laws in January 2025, seemingly bowing to international pressure. But President Nayib Bukele? He's playing a different game entirely.

When the IMF issued another pressure-packed request to stop Bitcoin accumulation, Bukele's response was pure cryptocurrency attitude. His now-famous quote? "If it didn't stop when the world ostracized us and most 'bitcoiners' abandoned us, it won't stop now, and it won't stop in the future." Mic drop moment, anyone?

The crypto world is taking notice. Major firms like Bitfinex Derivatives and Tether have already announced they're relocating to El Salvador, turning the country into a Bitcoin sanctuary. It's like watching a real-life crypto revolution unfold, with Bukele as the unexpected hero of decentralized finance.

This isn't just about accumulating digital currency – it's a bold statement about financial sovereignty. El Salvador is basically telling the international financial establishment, "We do Bitcoin our way."

Michael Saylor Envisions Trillion Dollar Bitcoin Strategy for America

The US government should acquire 5-25% of the entire Bitcoin network between 2025 and 2035. We're talking about a potential strategic Bitcoin reserve that could generate up to $81 trillion for the US Treasury. That's not a typo – TRILLION with a capital T!

His magic number is 5.25 million BTC, which is a massive leap beyond previous proposals. Compare this to Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis's more conservative suggestion of just 1 million BTC. Michael Saylor isn't just thinking outside the box – he's building a whole new economic universe.

The strategy's golden rule? "Never sell your Bitcoin". Saylor predicts that by 2045, this reserve could become a "perpetual source of prosperity" generating over $10 trillion annually. It's like turning cryptocurrency into a national piggy bank on steroids.

This comes hot on the heels of President Trump's executive order establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, initially funded by cryptocurrencies seized in criminal cases. While the initial plan doesn't include immediate Bitcoin purchases, it opens the door for "budget-neutral strategies" to acquire more.

And Saylor's not just talking the talk. He's walking the walk, recently purchasing an additional $2 billion worth of Bitcoin, bringing Strategy's total holdings to nearly 500,000 BTC. Talk about putting your money where your blockchain is!
