KOL Ansem (@blknoiz06) announced the launch of the first on-chain index z500 on Ansem.io. The protocol allows new project teams to airdrop a portion of their token supply to $ANSEM holders at the time of token issuance, and to demonstrate long-term alignment intentions by buying and burning $ANSEM, thereby improving their ranking on the z500 leaderboard. $ANSEM holders only need to hold one token to gain exposure to multiple successful projects through automatic airdrops.Ansem stated that Pump.fun solved the token creation problem but has yet to address the filtering and curation issues. z500 requires teams to invest value upfront (such as buying and burning $ANSEM) to enhance transparency and filter long-term projects, reducing bundled sell-offs and quick exits. The leaderboard will showcase teams that buy and burn the most $ANSEM and those with the best market performance of airdropped tokens. Ansem claims it will actively share the top projects on the list and noted that the market cap of $ANSEM has risen from about $200,000 to over $200 million since its takeover.This mechanism aims to flip the creator economy model, allowing brands to deliver value directly to $ANSEM holders instead of paying KOLs who might sell off, thus providing productized alignment marketing for quality teams while enhancing network effects.

According to The Block, Benchmark analysts reiterated their buy rating on the tokenized company Securitize ($SECZ), while lowering its target price from $16 to $10, believing that the company's approximately 29% two-day decline after its first public earnings report was an overreaction.Securitize disclosed a 5% decline in revenue in its first earnings report as a public company and recorded an adjusted EBITDA loss, while also lowering its full-year outlook. Analysts pointed out that despite the short-term performance pressure, they still maintain a positive outlook on its long-term tokenization business prospects, thus maintaining the buy rating.

The AQAv2 stablecoin model protocol of Hyperliquid has previously received support from 19 out of 26 validators, and the relevant mechanism is expected to officially start accruing yields on August 26. Meanwhile, Circle has transferred approximately $4.4 billion USDC to Coinbase via the AQAv2 mechanism on HyperEVM, setting a record for the largest single USDC transfer on HyperEVM.If everything proceeds as planned, the yields generated by AQAv2 will begin accruing on August 26, with the first payment expected to enter the Assistance Fund on October 3. AQAv2 (Aligned Quote Asset v2) is a stablecoin mechanism announced by Hyperliquid in May this year, allowing stablecoins, including USDC, which are not exclusively issued by Hyperliquid, to qualify as "Aligned." According to public information, most of the stablecoin yields from AQAv2 will be returned to the Hyperliquid ecosystem, with 90% of the yields allocated to the relevant mechanism, and subsequently, 100% used for the buyback and destruction of HYPE tokens.Coinbase has been designated as the fund deployment party, while Circle is responsible for technical deployment, and both parties will also stake HYPE to participate in the mechanism. The mechanism previously required stablecoins to be exclusive assets of Hyperliquid, but AQAv2 has removed this restriction and will focus on the HIP-4 standardized market and the perpetual contract market operated by validators. According to relevant public disclosures, AQAv2 is expected to generate up to approximately $200 million in revenue and further enhance token value capture through the HYPE buyback and destruction mechanism.

On-chain analysis firm Glassnode stated that the native support for Bitcoin has begun to disappear. The large buy walls accumulated below the price in June have started to withdraw, and the remaining support is clearly thinning, forming a weaker bottom structure.Glassnode indicated that it continues to closely monitor this indicator in its weekly updates, showing that the liquidity and buy thickness below the market are weakening, and attention should be paid to the subsequent price volatility risks.

Lido tweeted that the NEST automated LDO buyback mechanism has been launched on the mainnet. NEST is a rules-based LDO buyback mechanism, where 50% of the surplus will automatically buy LDO through CoW Swap when the DAO's staking income exceeds the baseline of 40 million USD.If the income in a certain period does not meet the baseline, the corresponding gap will be accounted for in subsequent calculations and must be made up by new surplus before purchases can resume. The daily purchase limit is 50,000 USD, and the annual limit is 10 million USD, with all purchased LDO belonging to the DAO.

Garrett Jin released this week's market report, characterizing the rebound in the South Korean market as a wide-ranging fluctuation rather than a new trend. SK Hynix rebounded continuously after retesting the 1.42 million won area, closing up 5.9% at 1,593,000 won. The KOSPI has risen 20% from the July low, entering a technical bull market, but foreign capital has not shifted to long-term holdings, and the drag from leveraged ETFs remains. Garrett Jin set the first profit-taking level at $1,150 (approximately 1.63 million won), with the next target at $1,300 (1.85 million won).Garrett Jin also noted that gold recorded its strongest weekly gain since January this week at +7.8%, priced at $4,388. The driving factors were a decrease of 23,000 in July non-farm payrolls and a moderate CPI that dampened September rate hike expectations. However, it is currently overbought in the short term, and a pullback could present an opportunity for incremental accumulation. Bitcoin has shown no response to the same macro-positive factors, remaining trapped between the support at $62,500 and resistance at $65,000-$70,000, with the bottom structure since $57,700 gradually being built. Garrett Jin will wait for the next buying opportunity after a pullback.Regarding SpaceX, Garrett Jin believes the recent performance is a classic case of "bad news fully priced in + short squeeze," with the unlocking itself becoming a washout rather than the starting point of a decline. However, the unlocking window has not yet ended, with an additional 319 million shares to be unlocked, approximately 700 million shares each in September and October. The current range up to $160 is a profit-taking zone rather than a high-entry zone.

ChianCatcher news, Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan tweeted that the traditional view of "tokens not capturing value" is outdated. He listed several protocols that are achieving value capture through buyback and burn mechanisms: Hyperliquid uses over 97% of transaction fees for buybacks (accumulating over $2 billion); Pump has burned 36% of its supply and locked 50% of its revenue for burns; Uniswap has burned 107 million UNI and activated the fee switch; Aave implements automatic buybacks; Aptos has a hard cap supply and burns fees that have increased tenfold; Solana is proposing to increase fee burns by 12-14 times.Hougan believes that the market has not yet fully repriced these changes.

Bankr developer deployer tweeted that the token issuance platform Pools.fun launched by Sushi will release an official protocol token.

According to TradingBeats (formerly Hyperinsight), a whale starting with 0x519c initiated a large TWAP buy order during the pre-market period, planning to purchase 74,500 SPCX within 150 minutes, with a nominal amount of approximately $9.998 million based on the current price.

According to Arkham Research, Bitmine, the world's largest Ethereum treasury company, currently holds approximately 5.81 million ETH, valued at nearly $11 billion. After 14 months of continuous accumulation, its holdings have reached 4.8% of the ETH supply, achieving about 96% of its publicly set acquisition target of 5%. Unlike Bitcoin treasury companies such as Strategy, Bitmine has used over 5 million ETH for staking to earn interest, with an annualized staking income estimated at approximately $257 million based on a yield of about 2.63%.According to Arkham's analysis, the most likely scenario for the trajectory after reaching the 5% target is that Bitmine will slow down its purchases. On-chain data shows that its acquisition pace has already slowed this year, and after surpassing 5%, it may shift towards balance sheet management and maximizing staking returns. The second most likely scenario is to continue buying at the same pace. Considering that Tom Lee, co-founder of Fundstrat, who leads this strategy, has consistently been bullish, it is possible that they will continue to increase their holdings after breaking through 5%. The least likely scenario is to completely stop buying. If this largest enterprise-level ETH buyer in the market exits the demand side, it may temporarily weaken bullish sentiment, but even without new additions, its staking holdings will still grow passively through network rewards.

Coinsbuy confirmed a security incident, with unauthorized withdrawals from the platform wallet. The company stated that it has covered customer losses with its own reserves and is offering a reward of $100,000.

Bitfinex's latest report indicates that Bitcoin buying is returning, but the current rebound still mainly relies on improvements in the macroeconomic environment rather than catalysts from the cryptocurrency market itself.

According to exclusive reports from CTech (Calcalist), Israeli AI startup Decart is in deep negotiations with an international tech giant for a sale, with a valuation of about $6 to $7 billion, and the deal could be signed next week. Founded in 2023, Decart focuses on the development of real-time video generation AI models, employing around 100 people, and has raised approximately $450 million to date. The company just completed a $300 million funding round in May, with a valuation of $4 billion. Initial negotiations were with NVIDIA, and as they were nearing an agreement, another giant intervened, prompting the founder to shift focus to the new buyer. Industry speculation suggests the new buyer could be SpaceX, but Amazon and Nebius are also reportedly interested in participating.Decart's technological advantage lies in its ability to generate videos at a cost far lower than its competitors. SpaceX founder Elon Musk has maintained regular contact with co-founder Dean Leitersdorf since experiencing the game Oasis developed based on Decart's technology in 2024. Sequoia Capital partner Shaun Maguire (who organized Musk's post-war trip to Israel) has been investing in the company since the seed round. If the buyer is SpaceX, it will establish its first R&D center in Israel. Previously, SpaceX had acquired AI programming startup Cursor for $60 billion after its IPO, and acquiring Decart would further strengthen its position in the AI infrastructure sector.

According to monitoring by PeckShield, wallets associated with Coinsbuy are suspected to have been attacked, involving the TRON and Ethereum networks, with estimated losses of approximately 7.9 million dollars.The attackers subsequently transferred part of the stolen funds through platforms such as ChangeNOW, FixedFloat, and BingX.

Analyst Ali posted on platform X that the TD Sequential indicator has recently shown two buy signals on the Ethereum monthly chart, namely "Black 9" and "S13". According to the analysis, over the past four years, ETH monthly TD Sequential signals have often corresponded to trend reversals, including a 236% increase after the buy signal in September 2022 and a 258% increase after the buy signal in April 2025.If this round of signals is validated, it may drive Ethereum to start a new round of upward momentum, with a target around the $3000 level.
