Jinse Finance reported that Ross Calvin, founder and CEO of mining company Parhelion, has proposed building a "Great Colossus of Prometheus" statue on Alcatraz Island in the San Francisco Bay Area, with a height of approximately 450 feet (about 137 meters) and a total estimated investment of around $450 million. If constructed, the statue would surpass the height of the Statue of Liberty (about 305 feet from base to torch), making it a new landmark in the San Francisco Bay Area. To advance this project, federal government approval is required to reclassify Alcatraz Island from a national park to a national monument, as well as to obtain relevant planning and construction permits.

IMF: Global debt will exceed GDP in 2029

The IMF Managing Director issued a rare warning, specifically naming the United States’ debt path as “unsustainable” and pointing out that fiscal consolidation in various countries is seriously lagging. What's even more dangerous is that persistent inflation may force the Federal Reserve to continue raising interest rates, increasing financing costs and creating a vicious cycle of "high debt—high interest rates—even higher debt."
