[Reporter Gao Jiahe/Comprehensive Report] Huang Renxun's "naked resignation" of Nvidia's CEO, president and director positions in a flash. Whether it is a "resignation" (Resigns) or "forced resignation", Nvidia's official statement has not yet stated. However, the prediction market Polymarket has opened a bet on "who will take over as Huida's next CEO". Currently, the "father of CUDA" Huida's vice president of ultra-large-scale and high-performance computing, Ian Buck, has the highest winning rate.

However, there are also some confusion in the betting list. Arm CEO Rene Haas, former Apple CEO Tim Cook, Super Micro CEO Lisa Su, and even Huang Renxun’s daughter Madison Huang, senior director of product and technology marketing for Huida’s AI platform, are all on the potential list, but the winning rate is only 2% to 3%.

According to the latest contract data from Polymarket, the most popular candidate currently is Ian Buck, Vice President of Hyperscale and High-Performance Computing at Huida, with a success rate of succession ranging from about 25% to 38%. Buck joined Huida in 2004 and is known as the "Father of CUDA". He is a key promoter of expanding GPU applications from pure graphics to general computing and AI fields.

Following closely behind is interim CEO Colette Kress, the chief financial officer, with a betting probability of about 21% to 26.5%; the market even speculates that Huida may be co-led by Kress and Buck to form a "dual-head system" in the future.

Arm CEO Rene Haas has a probability of about 4% to 9% to become the external leader. Haas has worked at Huida for 7 years in the past and is familiar with the culture of his old employer and has operational experience in large semiconductor companies.

However, there are also many "mismatches" in the list. It was once reported that former Apple CEO Tim Cook, Super Micro CEO Su Zifeng, and even Huang Renxun's daughter Huang Min (Madison Huang) were included in the potential list, triggering heated discussions in the community.

Previously, Polymarket's bet on "Whether Jen-Hsun Huang will step down before the end of the year" attracted a huge bet of more than 3.58 million US dollars. However, the current specific contract of "Who will be the next CEO" has a cumulative bet amount of only about 90,000 to 110,000 US dollars. The betting situation more reflects the "watching" emotions and subjective speculations of retail investors and technology fans in the currency circle.
