One of the biggest domain deals in internet history!

Malaysian tech founder Arysan Ismail reportedly held AI.com for years before selling it for $70 million to Kris Marszalek.

Long before artificial intelligence became the defining technology of this decade, he secured a two-letter domain that would eventually sit at the center of the global AI conversation.

This isn’t just a domain sale story. It’s a reminder that strategic foresight compounds. The biggest opportunities are often invisible in their early stages.

According to the research, right after fertilization, organized biochemical waves, not chaotic reactions, travel across the egg, signaling activation.

These waves follow rhythmic, ordered patterns. Researchers compared them to the same mathematical proportions found in galaxies, seashells, and plants (similar to Fibonacci sequences)

It’s a powerful reminder that the universe's most complex patterns are mirrored at the most fundamental levels of biology.

Bilal Bin Saqib has stepped down as Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on blockchain and cryptocurrency, the Pakistan Crypto Council (PCC) confirmed on Tuesday.

He will, however, continue in his key role as Chairman of the Pakistan Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (PVARA) — the federal body overseeing the country’s virtual assets landscape. PVARA operates autonomously under a multi-stakeholder board that includes the State Bank governor, the SECP chairman and the FBR chairman.

The authority’s mandate spans consumer protection, illicit finance safeguards, fintech growth, streamlined remittances, tokenised assets, and the development of Shariah-compliant digital innovation through regulatory sandboxes.
