Missing figures stay unavailable. Forward P/E requires a dated source. Annual revenue, revenue growth, net income and margin come from each company's own 10-K, in US dollars, and each row shows that fiscal year. Revenue growth compares the fiscal year with the prior year stated in the same 10-K. Net income is the full year amount attributable to the company, or available to common stockholders where the filing states only that, or consolidated net income. Each row names its basis. Trailing P/E reads "Not meaningful" when the dated trailing diluted EPS is a loss or zero. An operating margin appears only when the filing states both the operating income and the revenue for the same year.

Sources: SEC filings, Gloria daily closes and CoinGecko. Oldest record refresh: Oct 30, 2026, 7:56 AM EDT. Refresh is not a price or filing date. Each row shows its price date and its annual fiscal period. Peers use industry code and company size, or editorial selection. Market cap multiplies that row price by the company share total the latest SEC filing states for every share class together. Trailing P/E divides it by trailing diluted earnings from SEC filings. Rolled earnings per share are approximate because share counts can change between periods. Both appear only when the SEC data carries its date, so they are estimates at one price date, not synchronized filing valuations. Not investment advice.

Quoted token and share units can have different rights, multipliers and dividend treatment. This is not an executable premium or arbitrage signal.

Amazon just made talking to a warehouse robot as simple as talking to a coworker. The company’s next-generation Proteus robot, unveiled at its ‘Delivering the Future’ event in London on June 4, can now receive task instructions through natural language instead of specialized software.

In English: instead of programming the robot through a technical interface, a warehouse employee can just tell it what to do. Think less “enter command sequence” and more “hey, move that cart to station 12 by noon.”

From code to conversation

The original Proteus debuted in 2022 as Amazon’s first fully autonomous mobile robot designed to share floor space with human workers. It handles heavy lifting, specifically hauling large carts through fulfillment centers.

Previous versions required employees to use dedicated software to route and direct the machines. The AI-powered upgrade strips that friction away. Workers can now assign the robot tasks using plain conversational phrases about what needs to go where and when. The robot navigates shared spaces alongside people, using built-in safety systems like lights and sounds to signal its presence and intentions.

Amazon operates over 520,000 robotic drive units across its global facilities, a fleet that traces its origins to the company’s 2012 acquisition of Kiva Systems. Proteus sits at the top of that hierarchy as the most autonomous unit in Amazon’s arsenal.

A $11.6 billion European bet on automation

The upgraded Proteus isn’t staying in the lab. Amazon plans to deploy it across European fulfillment centers in the first half of 2027, folding it into a broader investment of €10 billion, roughly $11.6 billion, into the company’s logistics infrastructure across the region.

What this means for investors

This announcement has zero direct connection to crypto or blockchain. Amazon didn’t mention digital assets, tokenized supply chains, or decentralized anything. The Proteus upgrade is a pure robotics and AI play.

For crypto-adjacent investors, the more interesting signal is what Amazon isn’t doing. Despite years of speculation about the company exploring blockchain for supply chain management, this announcement doubles down on centralized AI and robotics as the primary tools for logistics optimization.
