According to @KobeissiLetter, citing the Financial Times, China is set to limit domestic access to Nvidia’s H200 AI chips even after President Trump approved exports, with buyers likely required to file purchase requests and explain why domestic providers could not meet their needs (source: Financial Times via @KobeissiLetter). For traders, this flags policy and procurement risk around NVDA’s China-related AI chip orders and Chinese AI hardware demand, with headline sensitivity likely elevated as access would be subject to a government approval process (source: Financial Times via @KobeissiLetter). The post does not reference cryptocurrencies; any read-through for digital assets would be indirect via AI-sector sentiment rather than explicit policy changes (source: @KobeissiLetter).
