Bitcoin is the world's first decentralized cryptocurrency, created in 2009 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto. It enables peer-to-peer electronic cash transactions without intermediaries like banks or governments, operating on a blockchain secured by Proof of Work mining and the SHA-256 cryptographic algorithm.   With a fixed supply cap of 21 million coins and programmatic halvings every four years that reduce miner rewards, Bitcoin is designed as a deflationary digital asset often called "digital gold." Its value stems from solving the double-spending problem without trusted intermediaries, creating the first truly scarce digital asset with censorship resistance and permissionless access that no government, corporation, or individual can control.  Bitcoin operates as a decentralized peer-to-peer network where transactions are recorded on a public ledger called the blockchain, distributed across thousands of computers globally. Transactions are grouped into blocks added approximately every 10 minutes through mining, where specialized computers compete to solve complex mathematical puzzles.   Bitcoin has achieved mainstream adoption through multiple vectors. The January 2024 SEC approval of 11 spot Bitcoin ETFs opened Bitcoin investment to traditional finance participants, and corporations like Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) are using Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset to protect against currency debasement, offering MSTR holders amplified exposure to Bitcoin.   The Bitcoin ecosystem continues to evolve with innovations like Ordinals, which emerged in January 2023 to enable NFT-like functionality directly on Bitcoin, and BRC-20 tokens, an experimental standard for creating fungible tokens using Ordinal inscriptions. BTCFi (Bitcoin Finance) represents emerging financial applications extending beyond Bitcoin's traditional role, with protocols like Babylon allowing Bitcoin holders to stake BTC to secure Proof of Stake chains.

The division also turned its first operating profit of 700 million yuan, making Xiaomi one of the fastest companies to achieve EV profitability at scale.Quarterly EV deliveries reached 108,796, boosted by the new YU7 electric SUV launch. Xiaomi will accelerate production, reduce wait times and increase R&amp;D spending, especially on more advanced AI-driven driver-assistance features.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Smartphone Price Warning Sparks the Selloff</h2>The decline in Xiaomi’s shares came shortly after President Lu Weibing warned that memory chip inflation would push smartphone prices higher in 2025.

Xiaomi Stock Tumbles On Warning Of Higher Smartphone Prices — Will Explosive EV Growth Spark A Rebound?

Xiaomi’s EV business accelerated with record deliveries and its first operating profit.

Equity

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Xiaomi’s EV business posted its first quarterly operating profit on stronger SU7 sales and efficiency gains.</li><li>Deliveries accelerated in Q3 and October, putting the company on track to meet its full-year target as early as this week.</li><li>The company highlighted progress in autonomous driving and AI as core to its long-term EV strategy.</li></ul>U.S.-listed shares of Xiaomi snapped a three-day losing streak on Tuesday after the company reported a breakthrough quarter for its electric-vehicle business, which posted its first operating profit and moved closer to its full-year delivery goal less than two years after entering the auto market.The stock rose 0.2% to $26.75 on Tuesday after hitting&nbsp;its lowest level in nearly seven months on Monday, a drop that followed Barclays’ decision to cut the stock’s price target to $40 from $43 ahead of its third quarter (Q3) report.On the company’s earnings call, Xiaomi said its Smart EV, AI and new initiatives segment delivered its first quarterly operating profit of 700 million yuan in Q3, helped by rising sales of the SU7 lineup and stronger factory efficiency.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Deliveries Surge Toward Full-Year Target</h2>The company delivered 108,796 EVs during the third quarter, bringing total deliveries for the first three quarters to 265,967 units. October stood out, with deliveries topping 40,000, and the company said that momentum should be enough to reach its full-year goal of 350,000 units as early as this week. They added that wait times for the SU7 Pro and Pro Max have come down noticeably due to factory upgrades and smoother supply chains, and Xiaomi is continuing to ramp production for both models. The company expects deliveries to keep rising into 2026.<h2 class="st-heading-2">A ‘Young’ Carmaker Scaling Fast</h2>Xiaomi described itself as a “young company” in autos, noting it has been delivering cars for only about 18 months, yet volumes continue to rise on the back of quality reforms and a tighter production cycle. The company has expanded its retail footprint, operating 402 EV sales centers across 119 cities and 209 service locations across 125 cities in Mainland China as of September.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Autonomous Driving Becomes A Core Battleground</h2>Xiaomi said autonomous driving sits at the center of its long-term EV strategy. Its latest EVs use LiDAR-equipped setups supported by major leaps in training data that have expanded from 3 million to 10 million clips, which Xiaomi said has improved driving performance.The company is deploying its MiMo large AI models, including multimodal and language-based models, to provide intelligent computing capabilities for autonomous driving&nbsp;and improved in-car cabin experiences. The company has also been rolling out updated versions of its autonomous-driving software, highlighting recent improvements and new capabilities.<h2 class="st-heading-2">The Road Ahead</h2>Xiaomi said its EV unit remains focused on scale rather than margins in a market that produces more than 22 million vehicles a year, though the company added that the division’s gross margin is healthy and should be supported by ongoing efficiency gains. It also expects&nbsp;improved operational efficiency to help soften the impact of subsidies and vacancy taxes.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">Stocktwits Users Flag Xiaomi’s EV Momentum</h2>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for Xiaomi was ‘bullish’ amid ‘high’ message volume.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:961/139;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/xiacy_png_866ae7bb5b.webp" alt="xiacy.png" width="961" height="139"><figcaption>XIACY sentiment and message volume as of November 18 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>One user said Xiaomi’s strong revenue, profit, and EV growth were being overlooked by the market, adding that “fundamentals are screaming upside” and the company could look “massively undervalued” if its EV momentum continues into 2026.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/NearDipXperience/message/636563727</stembedurl>Another user said, “<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/XIACY">$XIACY</a> is going to be what<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/TSLA"> $TSLA</a> claims to be!”<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Parched_River_Capital/message/636597413</stembedurl><a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/XIACY">Xiaomi’s U.S.-listed stock</a> has declined 22% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Both occupants escaped unharmed.The incident, which followed a fatal fire involving Xiaomi’s SU7 in mid-October, has reignited debate over battery design and quality control among Chinese automakers.&nbsp;Analysts at UOB Kay Hian, including Ken Lee and Bella Lu, said stricter smart-driving access rules could improve public trust and safety, benefiting established players such as BYD, Geely, and Xpeng, while weighing on weaker peers like Li Auto.<h2 class="st-heading-2">‘Better Than Tesla:’ Stocktwits Users Tout Xpeng’s Cars</h2>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for Xpeng was ‘bullish’ amid ‘high’ message volume.One bullish user suggested Xpeng could eventually reach $100 a share, noting that while its marketing still needs work, the company’s vehicles are “better than Tesla.”<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Miles277/message/634342961</stembedurl>Another user expressed optimism ahead of October delivery data, saying they expected the figures to come in stronger than anticipated.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/offpist/message/634317245</stembedurl><a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/XPEV">Xpeng’s U.S.-listed stock</a> has surged 94% so far in 2025,&nbsp;handily beating gains notched by local rivals Nio and Li Auto, as well as benchmark S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq indices.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Xiaomi Corp's shares fell 5.4% on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on Monday, marking their third consecutive session of decline, following reports of a malfunction in its SU7 that prevented the doors from opening after the electric car was involved in an accident.The sedan crashed in the Chinese city of Chengdu, with reports and videos circulating on social media platforms, including Weibo, showing the vehicle after it crashed and burst into flames early Monday.

This accident caused the company's stock to fall and triggered scrutiny of the smart driving software used in many of the latest cars.Notably, the U.S. transport regulator is investigating faulty door handles of some Tesla Y cars in the U.S.Xiaomi's stock on Monday was also likely weighed down by broad sell-offs in Chinese equities amid escalating U.S.-China trade tensions.

Chinese automakers have already captured the country’s middle-class drivers, and now they are targeting wealthy buyers seeking exclusivity. Xiaomi recently launched a customization service for its 529,900-yuan ($74,000) SU7 Ultra electric sedan, allowing buyers to personalize the trim and paint jobs for an additional 100,000 yuan.&nbsp;The program, also available for the 329,900-yuan YU7 Max SUV, offers extras like 24-karat gold hood badges and forged wheel hubs, echoing the bespoke options long offered by brands like Porsche and Bentley, according to a Bloomberg&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-10-05/porsche-and-xiaomi-face-off-over-custom-model-buyers-in-china">report</a>.The smartphone maker’s move pits it directly against Porsche, which is expanding its Exclusive Manufaktur program in China as sales of its Taycan EV slow. While Xiaomi’s SU7 Ultra undercuts the 918,000-yuan Taycan, it bears a strong resemblance to the German model.More than 90% of Porsche 911 buyers opt for personalized features, often spending tens of thousands of dollars on custom paint jobs or interior upgrades. Citi analyst Harald Hendrikse estimates Porsche’s personalization arm generates €5.6 billion in sales and up to €2.5 billion in profit annually. However, he noted that Xiaomi’s offerings likely compete more with Audi, BMW, and Mercedes, adding that customization may boost global revenues by only 1%–2%.Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun said its new amethyst purple paint takes 50 hours to apply and rivals finishes from Rolls-Royce or Bentley. “I want more people to enjoy the service that comes with top-range luxury cars,” Lei said.The company’s luxury push extends beyond cars: Lei also unveiled a new smartphone positioned as a cheaper rival to Apple’s iPhone 17.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for Xiaomi was ‘bullish’ amid ‘extremely high’ message volume.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/XIACF">Xiaomi’s U.S.-listed stock</a> has risen 60% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

The move follows a wave of global auto safety actions in September, with probes into Stellantis, Ford, and Tesla.

Tesla is expected to top China’s electric vehicle market in September with about 72,000 deliveries, leading what Deutsche Bank says could be a month of record volumes for several Chinese EV makers.The figure would represent a 27% increase from August and keep volumes roughly flat from a year earlier, according to a CnEVPost&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://cnevpost.com/2025/09/24/china-sept-2025-ev-sales-preview/">report</a> citing a Deutsche Bank preview. Order flow was pegged at 73,000 units, driven by demand for the new six-seat, long-wheelbase Model Y L SUV, which was launched in August.&nbsp;Tesla Deliveries for new customers are currently slated for November, according to the company’s Chinese website. In the first three weeks of September, Tesla’s insurance registrations totaled 46,950 units.Nio is forecast to deliver a record 35,000 vehicles,&nbsp;representing a 12% month-on-month increase and a 65% year-on-year rise. The breakdown includes about 15,000 units each from the Nio and Onvo brands and 5,000 from Firefly.&nbsp;The new order flow for Nio in September was estimated at around 100,000 units, a 67% month-on-month increase, led by demand for the flagship ES8 SUV. Deutsche Bank noted that Onvo faced battery supply shortages, shifting allocations from the L60 SUV to the new L90 SUV.Xiaomi EV is expected to deliver 42,000 units, another record, marking a 15% increase from August and about 210% growth from a year ago. The company’s production rose 22% in August to 37,380 units, with capacity expected to exceed 50,000 units per month in the fourth quarter. September order flow was estimated at around 25,000 units, including 15,000 for the YU7 SUV and 10,000 for the SU7 sedan.Xpeng is projected to hit a record 40,000 vehicles, a 6% month-on-month increase. Of these, about 37,000 are expected to be domestic sales and 3,000 overseas. Orders for September were estimated at 45,000 units, down 13% from August due to weaker demand for the G7 SUV and new P7 sedan.Meanwhile, Li Auto is&nbsp;forecasted to reach 35,000 vehicles, up 23% from August but down 35% from last year. Expected new order flow was 50,000-55,000 units, of which 12,000-17,000 were for the newly introduced Li i6 SUV.BYD is estimated to report wholesale volumes of about 380,000 units, up 2% month-on-month but down 9% year-on-year. Domestic deliveries are expected to reach around 320,000 units, with new orders at a similar level, although down 2% from August.Deutsche Bank said September is shaping up as the peak sales season for Chinese EV makers.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for Tesla was ‘neutral’ amid ‘high’ message volume, while BYD was ‘bullish’ with ‘high’ activity.

Tesla Set To Lead China’s EV Market In September, Outpacing Nio, Xiaomi And Xpeng: Deutsche Bank

Chinese EV makers are bracing for a record month as peak sales season drives stronger deliveries.

Tesla recorded 17,300 insurance registrations in China for the week of Sept. 15–21, its strongest performance in three months and up 12.7% from 15,350 the week before.&nbsp;The Model Y SUV led with 10,340 units, while the new six-seat Model Y L added 850 and the Model 3 sedan contributed 6,060, according to a CnEVPost&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://cnevpost.com/2025/09/23/china-ev-insurance-registrations-week-ending-sept-21-2025/">report</a>.The Model Y L, Tesla’s first three-row version of its best-selling crossover, is proving to be a major growth driver. Since its Aug. 19 launch, orders have surged past 120,000, with nearly 10,000 vehicles selling out per day.&nbsp;Deutsche Bank echoed the momentum, saying dealer feedback showed August orders nearly doubled month-on-month to about 130,000, largely fueled by the long-wheelbase variant.&nbsp;The Model Y L starts at 339,000 yuan ($46,700), about 8% more expensive than the standard version, with an 82-kWh battery offering about 327 miles of range, 0–62 mph acceleration in 4.5 seconds, and nearly 90 cubic feet of cargo space. Deliveries began earlier this month, with handovers expected to ramp up in October.Tesla’s gains came as domestic rivals also posted solid numbers. BYD dominated with 70,700 registrations, Xiaomi followed at 10,800, Xpeng hit 9,200, Li Auto logged 8,600, and Nio reported 6,670 across its main, Onvo, and Firefly brands.&nbsp;Nio’s newly launched third-generation ES8 SUV, unveiled September 20 and delivered from Sept. 21, has yet to meaningfully impact weekly data. However, with 40,000 units of 2025 production already sold out,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/nio-stock-tumbles-es8-demand-buyers-wait-2026-china-ev-tax-break-wind-down/chDhK04R3P4">new buyers face delivery waits of 24–26 weeks</a>, stretching into March 2026.Monthly delivery data highlight the crowded field. Tesla sold 57,152 units in August, a 9.9% year-over-year decrease but a 40.7% increase from July. BYD moved 373,626, Xiaomi delivered 36,396, Nio 31,305, Xpeng 37,709, and Li Auto 28,529.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for Tesla was ‘bullish’ amid ‘high’ message volume.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/TSLA">Tesla’s stock</a> has risen 7.5% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Xpeng and Li Auto also posted solid weekly gains, while Nio’s newly launched ES8 has yet to move the needle, though its 2025 production is already sold out with deliveries stretching into 2026.

Xiaomi will recall 116,887 Standard Edition SU7 sedans, about one-third of the model’s cumulative sales, and deploy an over-the-air software fix to address flaws in its advanced driver assistance system.The issue affects nearly 40% of SU7 sedans sold, Bloomberg&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-09-18/hong-kong-braces-for-twin-storms-as-forecasters-predict-super-typhoon?srnd=homepage-americas">reported</a>, citing China’s State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR).Regulators said the L2 highway pilot system may not adequately recognize or warn of extreme driving scenarios, raising collision risks if drivers do not intervene. Xiaomi said the update&nbsp;will be rolled out through its HyperOS 1.10.0 system, covering both the SU7 sedan and the YU7 SUV, with improvements including enhanced speed adjustment in rainy and nighttime conditions.The SU7, launched in March 2024, has become Xiaomi’s flagship EV. Deliveries reached 305,055 units by July and 339,421 by August, accounting for nearly 89% of the company’s EV sales.&nbsp;At launch, the standard model did not include lidar sensors, which help vehicles map their environment. The YU7 SUV, introduced in June, logged over 240,000 preorders within 18 hours and delivered 24,824 units by August.The recall follows a March 29 crash involving a standard-version SU7 that killed three people after the assisted driving function disengaged one second before the vehicle struck a highway guardrail. The accident prompted Chinese authorities to tighten oversight of driver assistance technologies and EV designs, including recessed door handles.In July, founder and CEO Lei Jun said Xiaomi’s EV division is&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/xiaomi-s-ev-push-pays-off-su-7-sales-may-power-break-even-in-h2/chkucqjRbw4">expected to turn profitable in the second half of 2025</a>, citing momentum from the SU7. The unit posted a 500 million yuan ($69 million) loss last quarter, narrowing from 700 million yuan previously.&nbsp;The SU7 has outsold Tesla’s Model 3 in China every month since December through July, with 136,854 units delivered in 2024 and a full-year 2025 target of 350,000.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for Xiaomi was ‘bullish’ amid ‘low’ message volume.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/XIACF">Xiaomi’s U.S.-listed stock</a> has risen 65.8% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Xiaomi EVs Hit By Major Recall As 40% Of SU7 Sedans Need Assisted Driving Fix

The Chinese regulator said Xiaomi SU7s may fail to detect critical scenarios, raising risks if drivers don’t intervene.

Rivian Automotive CEO RJ Scaringe&nbsp;believes the EV maker’s $5.8 billion technology alliance with Volkswagen Group will underpin the German automaker’s planned ID.1, a $20,000 EV he called Europe’s “answer to China.”&nbsp;Speaking at&nbsp;Morgan Stanley’s 13th Annual Laguna Conference on Thursday evening, Scaringe said the launch would draw close attention from competitors.“Every car company will buy it. BYD will buy it. Xiaomi will buy it and XPeng will buy it,” he said. He added that they would be “impressed” by the vehicle’s network architecture, ECU layout and electrical systems, which were designed to scale from VW’s entry-level models to Porsche and Audi flagships.R2 Autonomy&nbsp;To Leap Beyond HighwaysScaringe also spotlighted Rivian’s own product pipeline, led by the $45,000 R2 five-passenger SUV. While Rivian already offers hands-free driving on highways, he said the next step is “hands-free everywhere,” followed by “eyes-off” operation and eventually turn-by-turn autonomy.&nbsp;He said that&nbsp;the shift represents “something like a 50x increase in the number of roads that the vehicle is going to be able to drive on, driving itself.”The company plans to hold an event at the end of the year to showcase its autonomy technology, including hardware details, its compute and perception stack, and demonstrations of the system in operation.Scaringe forecast that hands-free driving on all roads will expand next year, with “eyes-off” autonomy targeted for 2027–2028. He said that if executed well, the feature could “unlock massive pools of demand” and significantly expand Rivian’s customer base.Data Flywheel Powers Rivian’s AI TrainingRivian’s Gen2 system marks a clean break from the Mobileye-based setup in its first vehicles. Scaringe said Rivian brought its compute, sensors and perception fully in-house, enabling the company to build a “data flywheel” to train its autonomy system using real-world driving data collected from its fleet.He said Rivian’s smaller vehicle base compared with Tesla’s is offset by advanced camera and radar systems, particularly 3D imaging radar, which helps improve training in difficult conditions like rain or fog.Not Enough EV Choices Under $50KScaringe&nbsp;reiterated that EV adoption in the U.S. remains stuck at around 8% because of limited options for mainstream buyers. “The number of great choices [under $50,000] is well under the number of fingers on my hand,” he said, pointing to Tesla’s Model 3 and Model Y as the only broadly compelling choices today. He described R2 as designed to fill that gap with a more affordable crossover alternative.He added that “there’s going to be some cross-shop and maybe some movement of customers from Tesla to Rivian,” though he emphasized the bigger opportunity is in reaching the 92% of car buyers who have not yet switched to EVs.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for Rivian was ‘bearish’ amid ‘normal’ message volume.&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/RIVN">Rivian’s stock</a> has risen 5% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Scaringe also outlined the company’s autonomy roadmap, stating that the $45,000 R2 will transition from highway-only self-driving to “hands-free everywhere” and eventually “eyes-off” capability by 2028.
