China Introduces Pistol-Like Coil-Gun Based On Electromagnetic-Launch Systems
Authored by Bojan Stojovski via Interesting Engineering,
A new handheld coil gun developed in China is designed for discreet, non-lethal use, including law enforcement operations, state broadcaster CCTV reported. Capable of firing between 1,000 and 2,000 rounds per minute, the weapon can penetrate wooden boards from distances of several dozen yards. Its adjustable power settings allow it to incapacitate rather than kill when set lower.

The compact electromagnetic launcher features a 12-inch barrel and is light enough to be comfortably held and operated with one hand, allowing for greater mobility and ease of use in tight or urban environments where traditional firearms or larger coil guns would be cumbersome.
Equipped with a laser pointer for improved accuracy, the device – also called a Gauss gun – uses electromagnetic coils to accelerate metal...

Green hydrogen drive may help China reach carbon-neutral goal (SCMP)
|
|
|
China's abundant renewable power and government support could bring a once prohibitively expensive green energy solution into the mainstream – hydrogen.
Extensive access to low-cost solar and wind power could let the country produce huge quantities of hydrogen in an environmentally friendly and affordable manner. The government is also stoking demand for the zero-emission fuel, potentially creating incentives for investors to put money into the infrastructure needed for production and......

Stricter Chinese scrutiny of offshore vehicles a blow for tech and biotech IPO candidates (SCMP)
|
|
|
US dollar-denominated funds could face more hurdles when investing in Chinese tech and biotech companies as Beijing adopts a stricter approach to companies seeking listings via offshore incorporated vehicles.
Indicative of Chinese regulators' caution in overseeing sensitive industries, industry sources say the move ensures that any sale of assets does not escape regulatory scrutiny.
And for any offshore incorporated structures that are approved, the stock regulator requires listing applicants to......

As France Yanks Last US-Based Gold Reserves, UBS Expects Demand From China To Persist
When France repatriates its gold, it has historically been worth paying attention to (think De Gaulle's demands culminating in the 'Nixon Shock').
However, then (as now), there was no cliff-like event, it was a slow-building crisis and perhaps the news that Gold has officially emptied its US-stored gold reserves (held in New York) is another straw on the back of the fiat standard to keep an eye on.
RFI reports that The Banque de France (BdF) announced last week that it generated a capital gain of €12.8 billion after upgrading 129 tonnes of gold – about 5% of France's total reserves – between July 2025 and January 2026.
The gold was the last of the French reserves held in New York. It was replaced with the equivalent amount bought in Europe and held in Paris.
The BdF has been gradually replacing older, non‑standard gold with bars that meet modern international standards since 2005.
It moved t...
