This launch coincides with DeLorean’s transformation from a nostalgic 1980s automotive icon into a next-generation electric vehicle (EV) brand. Through its Web3 innovation division, DeLorean Labs, the company is merging its EV resurgence with blockchain integration. Recently, it introduced NFT-based vehicle build slots for the upcoming Alpha-5 EV, allowing enthusiasts to reserve and trade production slots on-chain. To support this innovation, a dedicated NFT marketplace is currently in development.
Commenting on the milestone, Sheldon Inwentash, CEO of ThreeD Capital, stated:
“DeLorean’s fusion of nostalgia, EV innovation, and blockchain utility positions it as a powerful disruptor across both automotive and digital sectors.”
Building on that momentum, DeLorean Labs also rolled out FLUX Protocol, a blockchain-based reservation and analytics platform designed to facilitate secure and transparent EV transactions. Developed in partnership with Mysten Labs and the Sui Foundation, FLUX aims to decentralize the EV ownership experience while expanding on DeLorean’s earlier NFT campaigns and community-driven initiatives.
In parallel, DeLorean’s Web3 strategy continues to gather momentum through strategic alliances with key players, including Animoca Brands’ Motorverse, Karate Combat, Delphi Digital, Readyverse Studios, and MoonPay—further solidifying the brand’s presence within the metaverse and digital asset space.
Building on this ecosystem, MoonPay has launched MoonPay Labs, a new accelerator program designed to nurture early-stage Web3 startups. The initiative will offer selected teams capital, product development support, and go-to-market strategies, signalling further infrastructure growth for brands like DeLorean that are leveraging crypto and Web3 to redefine legacy industries.

AI Capital Expenditure Faces a Dilemma: Accelerating Puts Pressure on Cash Flow, Slowing Down Undermines the Growth Narrative
Nomura Securities believes that the AI investment narrative is mired in an internal contradiction: if hyperscale cloud providers accelerate capital expenditures, their free cash flow will continue to be drained, raising doubts about the sustainability of financing; if they slow down, it would indicate a loss of confidence in AI demand and profitability expectations. Both paths lead to sell-offs. The crowded long positions accumulated during the AI agent boom in September have triggered large-scale stop-losses under negative catalysts, spreading to US Treasury bonds, exchange rates, and commodity markets, resulting in systemic deleveraging.
Amazon (AMZN.US) CEO: AWS cloud computing capacity is fully booked until 2027, and a large amount of capacity has already been committed by customers for 2028

The time window is extremely tight—according to SEC regulations, the S-1 filing must be submitted by next week at the latest, and prediction markets estimate the probability of a listing within the year at around 80%. The sell-off in the AI sector has cast a shadow over the listing prospects, and the previous plan to go public in September has already fallen through. Several market participants say that Anthropic may face pressure to delay its listing, but some analysts point out that the company's urgent need for capital may drive it to stick to the original plan.
