On October 9, reports indicated that the significant increase in storage chip costs has forced Apple to raise prices and suppress demand. Apple has requested some suppliers to reduce the production of recently released iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max components.

In September, Apple released the iPhone 18 Pro series, and due to product planning adjustments, the basic model of the iPhone 18 has not yet been launched.

Ostium has released a design update on the second phase of the compensation plan for liquidity providers (OLP). This plan offers two compensation mechanisms for users who have losses exceeding 1,000 USDC and have not opted for Convenience Allocation:Default Plan A (USDC Installment Payment): Funding sources include recovered and future recovered funds (distributed proportionally after deducting the first phase portion), a specific share of revenue from the Ostium protocol and Gateway (initially 50% of Ostium opening fees), and potential partner incentives or revenue sharing.Optional Plan B (Ostium Labs Equity Conversion): Users who meet securities regulation requirements can convert part of their unrecovered losses into Ostium Labs equity at the valuation of the next round of financing, with the same class of shares as the team, and a total holding percentage for participating users subject to a fully diluted cap.The second phase portal is scheduled to launch on October 30, and eligible users can proportionally claim the allocated funds from Plan A; if they choose equity conversion, the portion of losses converted to equity will no longer be eligible for subsequent installment payments under Plan A, thereby helping to accelerate the repayment process for the remaining unconverted funds.Ostium emphasizes that this compensation plan is voluntarily initiated by the official and does not guarantee the full recovery of lost funds; specific implementation details and parameter scales are still being refined.
