Hublot Launches Its First NFT With the Big Bang
There are just 30 days to go before UEFA EURO 2020™ kicks off! Fans around the world are delighted to finally follow this competition, which has been postponed for a year as a result of the pandemic. To celebrate, Hublot is unveiling its Big Bang e UEFA Euro 2020™ connected watch. Once again, Hublot is enabling football fans to keep pace with the competition by wearing their very own virtual stadium on their wrist.
The bezel on the Big Bang e watch sports is the colours of the flags of the 12 nations initially planned to host. Aesthetically, it features the attributes of the brand's iconic Big Bang model. It is available in a 42mm case in Black Magic. The sapphire crystal means the AMOLED high definition touchscreen is easy to use while, just like a mechanical watch, the push-button on the rotary crown is used to activate its functions.
The complex electronic module operates on WearOS by Google software, which has been adapted and perfected to meet Hublot's requirements, notably via an app specially dedicated to football which enables users to follow the competition in real time. Amongst the features of this watch, in addition, of course, to following the timing of the matches with timekeeping, half-time, extra time and the end of the match, the Big Bang e also notifies the wearer of cards awarded, player substitutions, penalties and goals. There is also the option to view information on the team line-ups, the players' rankings and their position on the field. Moreover, users will also be able to download, free of charge, dials in the colour of their country exclusively developed for the Big Bang e from the Google Play Store. In addition, as well as the magnificent rubber strap with titanium deployant buckle clasp supplied as standard, fans will have the opportunity to purchase other straps in the colours of their favourite teams. These will be easily interchangeable thanks to the famous one-click system developed by Hublot.
For the UEFA EURO 2020™ European Championship, Hublot will be equipping all the referees officiating during the tournament with special Big Bang e Referee watches. The board used by the fourth official to show player substitutions will also be sporting Hublot colours.
Hublot has pursued its exploration in every dimension of technology and so, from 12th May, is launching a podcast series called "Hublot Fusion Podcast". Hosted by French sports broadcast journalist Anne-Laure Bonnet, these 12 episodes will feature interviews with footballing legends, as well as with friends and ambassadors of Hublot. The podcasts will focus on the 12 universal values of victory: solidarity, union, passion, commitment, inclusion, equality, friendship, justice, respect, fair play, tolerance and sharing.
In another major new initiative, 200 customers of the Big Bang e joining the Hublotista community will be given a non-fungible token (NFT) containing an excerpt from one of the episodes of the "Hublot Fusion Podcast"! These tokens were developed with the leading ETHEREUM software company : ConsenSys. The tokens strictly comply with the ERC-1155 standard, and their owners can exchange these tokens on platforms which are benchmarks in the world of NFTs, including OpenSea.
The Hublot Big Bang e UEFA EURO 2020™ connected watch is available exclusively on the brand's e-commerce platform www.hublot.com and from Hublot boutiques.
KXCO AI Ontology at 3 Months: What It Called and What Comes Next
On 19 July 2026 the Round Table's AI room published its first Analyst Outlook. To the 16 October 2026 close its 13 names rose 2.6% on an equal weight against 2.1% for QQQ, per StockAnalysis closes, and the six it opened with 35% or more of upside rose 8.6%. This piece lists the six names up more than 5%, the ten names I rate as opportunities now, the month's results in AI and quantum computing, and the official data showing that four in five firms have not yet started using AI.
SpaceX: The Road to 10 Gigawatts
SpaceX did not add an AI business. A company whose processes run on compute built its own computing plant, then built the power to run it. The 10-Q reports 1.4 gigawatts of nameplate compute at 30 June 2026, four leases worth about $41 billion a year and $100 billion of cash. The target is closer to 10 gigawatts than 5 by the end of 2027. This piece sets out the build sequence, the four layers of power in Memphis, and why Terafab is the act after 2027, not the road to it.
Thoughts on Thinking: Take an Art Break
The best way I know to keep complex work in perspective is to stop at intervals and look at something that took the same order of sustained attention under real constraints. The studies now show what that does: a museum visit restored attention where an urban walk did not, judging the beauty of an object raised abstract thinking almost 14 per cent, and artistic film raised originality even in people who felt worse for it. Five works, Leonardo to Holbein, and the non-default decision in each.
The Evil Legacy of the French Revolution
The French Revolution is still sold as the birthday of the modern world. The ledger does not match the posters. It seized the Church's land and floated its paper money on the seizure, hunted the priests who would not swear, defined the nobility as a moral enemy, and put in their place a political class accountable chiefly to itself. Four knowledge-graph exhibits trace who put the king and queen on the scaffold, and how the template left France.
