A new Bitcoin Policy Institute report uncovers three converging vectors of foreign influence behind the coordinated campaign to halt American AI infrastructure development. The investigation traces how Chinese Communist Party state media outlets — CGTN, China Daily, and Global Times, alongside Russia's RT — have run attributed messaging against U.S. AI data centers and export controls, even as Beijing simultaneously subsidizes up to half the energy costs of its own AI operators. The report further documents a CCP-aligned 501(c)(3) network funded by Shanghai-based expatriate Neville Roy Singham, currently under congressional inquiry for CCP ties, and more than $2 billion in foreign-billionaire dark money from the Wyss and Oak Foundations flowing into U.S. advocacy groups tied to the federal AI moratorium push. With 54+ local moratoriums already passed and statewide bills advancing in at least 12 states, BPI calls for foreign-funding disclosure laws, FARA enforcement, and full transparency in the AI policy debate.
