HUGE News Borgers! SwissBorg has officially secured MiCA authorisation for crypto-assets in Europe. 🇪🇺 To anchor our European operations, we sought approval from the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF), widely recognised as one of the most rigorous and demanding financial regulators in Europe. This approval marks a definitive milestone in our ongoing commitment to providing a secure, transparent, and fully compliant wealth management platform for our community. 🧵👇

@swissborg Massive! Félicitations @Cyrus_Fazel à toute l´équipe!

we're making @blocks smaller today. here's my note to the company. #### today we're making one of the hardest decisions in the history of our company: we're reducing our organization by nearly half, from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000. that means over 4,000 of you are being asked to leave or entering into consultation. i'll be straight about what's happening, why, and what it means for everyone. first off, if you're one of the people affected, you'll receive your salary for 20 weeks + 1 week per year of tenure, equity vested through the end of may, 6 months of health care, your corporate devices, and $5,000 to put toward whatever you need to help you in this transition (if you’re outside the U.S. you’ll receive similar support but exact details are going to vary based on local requirements). i want you to know that before anything else. everyone will be notified today, whether you're being asked to leave, entering consultation, or asked to stay. we're not making this decision because we're in trouble. our business is strong. gross profit continues to grow, we continue to serve more and more customers, and profitability is improving. but something has changed. we're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company. and that's accelerating rapidly. i had two options: cut gradually over months or years as this shift plays out, or be honest about where we are and act on it now. i chose the latter. repeated rounds of cuts are destructive to morale, to focus, and to the trust that customers and shareholders place in our ability to lead. i'd rather take a hard, clear action now and build from a position we believe in than manage a slow reduction of people toward the same outcome. a smaller company also gives us the space to grow our business the right way, on our own terms, instead of constantly reacting to market pressures. a decision at this scale carries risk. but so does standing still. we've done a full review to determine the roles and people we require to reliably grow the business from here, and we've pressure-tested those decisions from multiple angles. i accept that we may have gotten some of them wrong, and we've built in flexibility to account for that, and do the right thing for our customers. we're not going to just disappear people from slack and email and pretend they were never here. communication channels will stay open through thursday evening (pacific) so everyone can say goodbye properly, and share whatever you wish. i'll also be hosting a live video session to thank everyone at 3:35pm pacific. i know doing it this way might feel awkward. i'd rather it feel awkward and human than efficient and cold. to those of you leaving…i’m grateful for you, and i’m sorry to put you through this. you built what this company is today. that's a fact that i'll honor forever. this decision is not a reflection of what you contributed. you will be a great contributor to any organization going forward. to those staying…i made this decision, and i'll own it. what i'm asking of you is to build with me. we're going to build this company with intelligence at the core of everything we do. how we work, how we create, how we serve our customers. our customers will feel this shift too, and we're going to help them navigate it: towards a future where they can build their own features directly, composed of our capabilities and served through our interfaces. that's what i'm focused on now. expect a note from me tomorrow. jack

Today, Switzerland observes a National Day of Mourning in memory of the victims of the tragic fire that occurred on 1 January in #CransMontana. Our thoughts are with all those impacted, in Switzerland and beyond.

@wBenjy3 @swissborg Merci SwissBorg 🤩

HNY from @SwissBorg Loyalty! 🚀 Rewards for Q4 governance are calculated, do I send it? 💚🎁

#CransMontana fire: Switzerland will observe a national day of mourning on Friday, 9 January, in memory of the victims. Church bells across the country will ring at 2pm. The public is asked to observe a minute of silence and reflection. news.admin.ch/en/newnsb/yG9m…

We are raising our multi-year financial outlook and expect substantially higher returns beyond 2028 as we enter an unprecedented era of significant growth. Learn more: vernova.is/4oLo08C #InvestorRelations #FinancialOutlook #2025InvestorEvent #GEVernovaUpdate

Key energy technologies are gaining momentum worldwide Since 2010, new capacity for low-emissions power generation has surged, led by solar & wind Since 2020, EV sales have taken off – especially in China, where about half of new cars sold are electric: iea.li/3XLAL7M

AI infrastructure is driving electricity costs higher: US industrial electricity prices in the top 5 states with the most data centers have surged +43% over the last 5 years. These states are Virginia, Texas, California, Illinois, and Ohio. By comparison, prices have risen +26% nationally over the same period. Prices in both groups rose at a similar pace up until late 2022, coinciding with the release of ChatGPT in November 2022. In those 5 states, household electricity costs have increased +7.0% annually since 2022, outpacing the +5.5% national rate. Consequently, electricity prices in CPI inflation have soared +36% since 2020, while overall inflation has increased +25%. AI demand is driving household power bills higher.

@Cyrus_Fazel All the way to $1 in BORGtober! Let’s go 🚀💚

Uptober time for BTC! And BORGtober is only just beginning! What do you think happens now Borgers? Tell me below 👇

J'ai quand même l'impression qu'il n'y en n'aura pas pour tout le monde... OpenAI prévoit une explosion énergétique vertigineuse 🚀 👉 Capacité actuelle : 230 MW (2025) 👉 Objectif fin 2025 : 2 GW (×9 en 12 mois) 👉 Horizon 2033 : 250 GW (×125 en 8 ans) Pour donner l’échelle : C’est plus que la consommation énergétique actuelle de l’Inde (223 GW) Pratiquement la moitié de la capacité des États-Unis (488 GW) 7x l’Allemagne (57 GW) 70x le Royaume-Uni (3,6 GW) 100x Singapour (6,55 GW) 75x l’Irlande (3,94 GW) 108x l’Islande (2,30 GW) Et… près de 750x Malte (0,34 GW) Avec une croissance annuelle projetée de ×1,8, c’est un saut historique : des data centers transformés en véritables centrales énergétiques. Le marché regarde les semi-conducteurs et les actions IA, mais l’angle mort est l’énergie 🔋 La vraie histoire de l’IA, ce n’est pas seulement les modèles… c’est la capacité énergétique qu’ils exigent. Le futur de l’IA sera aussi le futur de l’énergie ⚡️

@wBenjy3 @Cyrus_Fazel @alex_fazel Keep up the good work!! Let’s build. Very excited for what comes next.

Proud to say $BORG is up 192.5% since last year. In September 2024, I got the chance to lead the Loyalty Squad - a group of brilliant, hard-working minds with two clear goals: ➡️ Build for impact ➡️ Elevate $BORG With the support of @Cyrus_Fazel, @alex_fazel, @AnthoLGSB, and many other incredibly smart people, we built something we know will deliver on both fronts. We’re not across the finish line yet, the release is in 5 days. There’s tension, stress, overtime, and the usual last-minute chaos. But one thing’s certain: the team is locked in and ready to make it count. 🚀 Big ideas require big execution - and none of this would be possible without the passion, grit, and talent of every team member across the company. Congrats to our loyal holders - and thank you 💚

Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft will collectively spend $364 BILLION on capital expenditures this year -- and most of that is going directly into their data centers. So how exactly is that capital being put to work? NVIDIA and AMD are the obvious winners who make the computing processors. But there are a lot of other picks-and-shovel providers who are also benefitting big-time from this AI trend as well. An excellent graphic here to describe that, with attributed credit to @TiernanRayTech & BofA Global Research. (A 'large' datacenter is typically 500 MW; though Facebook already has plans to build one that will be 5 GW) $GOOGL $AMZN $META $MSFT $NVDA $AMD $ANET $CSCO $VRT $TT $SBGSF @7investing

@Cyrus_Fazel Making us Stronger! LFG! Appreciate the transparency as always, and hopefully stolen funds can be recovered.

GM BORGERs 🌄 Had tears in my eyes this morning, not from the incident, but from reading your messages and realizing once again how strong our community is. 💚 Through highs & lows, you’re always here. Forever grateful to be part of SwissBorg. Now let’s flip the page… ⏳ 12 days to go until BORG 🚀🔥 Cyrus your proud CEO always here to serve you

Solar power plants in the European Union fed 108 TWh of electricity into the grid in the summer of 2025, 17% more than in the summer of 2024. Compared to the summer of 2015, the amount of solar power fed into the grid has increased by a factor of 3.2. energy-charts.info/charts/energy/…

@MikiBorg1 @swissborg Go $BORG 🚀

But who can do that ? @swissborg $BORG 🚀

The French nuclear power plant Flamanville 3 (rated power 1620 MW) was connected to the grid 8 months ago. It generated electricity for the first time on 14 January 2025. In June, it produced 810 MW for three weeks. Since 19 June 2025, it has not been generating any electricity.
