๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Treasury Announces $6 Billion Bond Buyback

The U.S. Treasury is buying back up to $6 billion in bonds maturing between 2037 and 2046.

The buyback limit has been tripledโ€”increased from $2 billion per operation to at least $4 billion starting September 9. The September 10 operation is capped at $6 billion, marking one of the largest recent repurchases in this sector.

This move is moderately positive for markets. Increased Treasury demand may support bond prices and help lower yields, easing financial conditions. In turn, this could make risk-free assets less attractive compared to equities, BTC, and other risk assets.

๐Ÿ’ป Laptop Trader Faces $197,000 Loss

One trader recently plunged $200,000 into LAPTOPโ€”only to see nearly the entire position wiped out shortly after launch.

The trader pulled $250,000 from Binance and bought 919 LAPTOP tokens at an average price of around $218. After the sharp downturn, the holding dropped to a value of just $3,000โ€”locking in an unrealized loss of $197,000, or about 99%.

๐Ÿฅธ What Really Happened to the LAPTOP Token?

Hunter Biden on the LAPTOP crash: โ€œTeam tokens are locked. No one on our side sold โ€” or could have sold. I personally made zero profit.โ€

The token plummeted 95โ€“99% from its near-$200 high within hours of launching on Base. Out of 15,206 wallets, 12,151 โ€” about 80% of traders โ€” ended up in the red.

Biden attributes the collapse to liquidity issues, not a rug pull, pointing to overwhelming demand, sniper bots, and technical glitches. All team tokens are locked for six months, with a two-year vesting schedule.

Moving forward, his foundation plans to inject 4 million tokens into liquidity pools and permanently burn an additional 10 million.

โœŠ SEC Eyes Blockchain as Official Ownership Registry

The SEC is proposing a major shift: using blockchain as the primary ownership registry for tokenized stocks. Right now, on-chain records and traditional off-chain shareholder lists run in parallel โ€” but only the off-chain version holds legal weight.

This new proposal aims to modernize decades-old transfer agent rules by phasing out redundant paper-based systems. Blockchain records would become the source of truth, eliminating the need to maintain and reconcile dual registries. Key controls like identity verification and transfer restrictions would stay embedded in the token itself.

One major benefit? Inheritance transfers could be processed in as little as one day โ€” down from the current three to five.

A 34-year-old from California is suing OpenAI, claiming that during a manic episode, ChatGPT failed to question his religious delusionsโ€”and instead validated the belief that he might be Jesus or the messiah.

The plaintiff states he disclosed his bipolar disorder and expressed concerns about delusional thinking, yet the AI continued engaging with and reinforcing his idea of a โ€œspecial mission.โ€ The incident culminated in a suicide attempt and subsequent hospitalization. He argues that OpenAI lacks sufficient protections for users experiencing psychosis or mania.

โ˜๏ธ Pump.fun Unveils Holder Rewards Program

Pump.fun (PUMP) has officially launched its new Holder Rewards system, retiring the previous cashback model. Instead of cashback, trading fees now feed into a dedicated distribution wallet and are automatically distributed to eligible holders multiple times per hourโ€”proportionally based on holdings.

To qualify, users must hold at least $20 worth of tokens. Rewards are paid in the native currency of the trading pair: SOL for SOL pairs, and PUMP for PUMP pairs. For new tokens, creators can now choose between creator fees or enabling Holder Rewardsโ€”no other options are available.

Existing protocol fee structures remain intact. SOL and USDC pairs continue with their tiered fee schedules, while custom pairs support fixed fees ranging from 0.01% to 3%, set permanently at launch.

PUMP is up +4% following the announcement.

Attorneys general from 18 U.S. states are opposing the current version of the Clarity Act, warning it could undermine state authority to police crypto-market fraud and safeguard investors.

In their view, the bill grants the SEC a โ€œunilateral right to revise the scope of federal preemption,โ€ which might override state-level regulationsโ€”such as local registration rules for crypto platformsโ€”not just those tied to digital assets. Theyโ€™re urging Congress to protect statesโ€™ ability to oversee the crypto space and pursue enforcement actions.
