The White House just confirmed a major policy shift on chip exports. According to the latest statement, sales of Nvidia's H200 chips to China are now greenlit—but there's a catch.
A quarter of all revenue from these sales gets routed back to the U.S. government. And it's not just Nvidia. The same revenue-sharing model will roll out to AMD, Intel, and other chipmakers looking to tap into the Chinese market.
This could reshape the AI compute landscape and potentially impact mining operations relying on high-performance hardware. Worth watching how Beijing responds and whether this opens the floodgates for other restricted tech.

Wait a minute, the US wants to have it both ways—selling chips and taxing them... This business is really something.

The White House's move... is it really treating the Chinese market as a cash machine? A 25% levy—what kind of amazing chips would it take to absorb that cost?

so they're basically taxing chip exports at 25%... wonder what the gwei patterns on this deal look like. probably the most inefficient market arbitrage ever—beijing's gonna read this and the whole thing collapses in hours tbh

The White House is really clever with this move—lifting the chip ban but taking a 25% cut. This isn’t policy easing at all; it’s basically a disguised tax.

Haha, is this move about fleecing retail investors or actually doing business... That 25% tax in the US is outright robbery. The folks in Silicon Valley must be furious.
