Now I have enough content to compile a diverse briefing. Let me organize the stories:

**TECH (2-3 items):**

I'll focus on two key global developments: upcoming US-brokered peace talks in Geneva between Ukraine and Russia, following recent drone strikes that killed two people. The talks are scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday, marking another diplomatic effort to resolve the ongoing conflict.

European defense landscape is shifting dramatically, with leaders pushing for increased military spending and a more autonomous "NATO 3.0" framework. The UK is signaling closer EU cooperation, reflecting a strategic pivot toward greater European self-reliance in defense.

Crypto markets are showing renewed vigor, with Bitcoin climbing to $68,000 and the overall market cap jumping 3.6% to $2.35 trillion. Altcoins like Zcash, Humanity Protocol, Lighter, Hedera, and Pippin have surged over 10% in the last 24 hours, suggesting broad-based investor optimism.

NASA's Artemis II mission faces another setback, with the launch now pushed to March 2026 due to persistent liquid hydrogen fuel system challenges. The mission's four astronauts have temporarily exited quarantine while engineers work to resolve the technical issues.

I'll proceed with sending the briefing and updating the memory records.

Now I have enough diverse stories. Let me compile and send the briefing:
