DeepMind’s AlphaFold 3 Goes Open Source, Ushering in a New Era for Biotech Research

DeepMind has officially open-sourced AlphaFold 3, its Nobel Prize-winning protein prediction model, allowing global academic researchers access to both its code and training weights for the first time since its limited release in May.

AlphaFold 3 can predict complex interactions between proteins and molecules, a breakthrough in understanding DNA, RNA, and drug compounds. While non-commercial researchers can now explore its full potential, commercial rights remain restricted to DeepMind’s Isomorphic Labs, which has already secured $3 billion in pharma partnerships.

By mapping over 200 million protein structures, AlphaFold 3 has laid the groundwork for accelerating discoveries in structural biology and medicine. Expect rapid innovation as researchers everywhere gain access to this powerful tool, leveling the field beyond big pharma and large institutions.

Bitcoin’s Wild Ride to $90K Shakes Up Crypto Markets

Bitcoin flirted with the $90K mark in volatile trading, peaking above $89,000 before dipping below $86,000, eventually stabilizing around $87,400. This surge resulted in nearly $900 million in crypto futures liquidations split between bullish and bearish bets. BTC’s 6% rise over the last 24 hours outperformed the broader market's 3.5% gain.

Ether ETFs also saw a record-breaking inflow of $295.5 million, bolstered by Fidelity and BlackRock, while BTC ETFs brought in $1.1 billion. DOGE soared 50% to $0.43, driven by bullish sentiment tied to Musk and the new administration, before correcting to $0.40, holding onto strong 24-hour gains of over 30%.

Crypto markets are taking notice of these big moves as bullish momentum builds.
