Odaily News: Crypto trader Bonk Guy posted on X platform responding to recent controversy surrounding his purchase of EMBER and explaining his position-building logic. Bonk Guy stated that he first noticed the project when EMBER's market cap was around $3 million but did not buy in. After observing for a day, he revisited his research due to the platform's rapid data growth and bought in from around a $7 million market cap all the way up to a $20 million market cap.Bonk Guy said that EMBER is a major Launchpad built on Meteora, supporting SOL, USDC, and over 150 tokenized stocks as pairing assets for token issuance. It utilizes Meteora Dynamic Bonding Curve technology and offers features such as token fee distribution, Daily Jackpots, and DAO governance.According to his disclosure, Ember has recorded approximately $51.7 million in trading volume, $561,000 in fees, and has cumulatively issued 2,041 tokens within 3 days of launch, with over 41,800 unique holder addresses and 149,000 Solana transactions. BonkGuy compared his Ember purchase to his previous PONS trade, noting that he first saw PONS when its market cap was below $1 million, similarly ignored it for a full day, and then started buying at around a $4 million market cap. Rather than whether a trending token has already emerged, what matters more is observing the real usage data underlying the Launchpad.Additionally, Bonk Guy stated that both Robinhood Chain and BNB Chain have multiple successful Launchpads, while Solana's Meme trading ecosystem has been developing for a longer time, so there is no reason to believe that Solana can ultimately only accommodate one successful Launchpad. He also stated that his trades are not based on market consensus. Some of his most successful trades in the past often came from discovering opportunities before the market formed a consensus; by the time everyone agrees, the asymmetric upside potential has usually already been significantly reduced.Regarding the recent controversy, Bonk Guy said that the claim of "EMBER having over 50% Bubblemaps address clusters" has been clarified by Bubblemaps; his earlier statement that Ember was "launched by Meteora" was also inaccurate—a more precise description is that Ember is built on Meteora-related infrastructure and has now been listed on Meteora's ecosystem page. Bonk Guy emphasized that he has no relationship with the Ember team, and EMBER is a personal trade for him.

Odaily Reports: Bitcoin News posted on X platform that Electrum has released version 4.8.2, introducing multiple security fixes and strengthening the security of its Bitcoin wallet codebase. The fixes are based on reports from researchers including Bitcoin Red Team, Calle, l0rinc, haoxucu, and m0wer. This version fixes a critical backup issue affecting certain Lightning wallets that use non-deterministic keys and anchor channels. Previously, affected wallets' channel backups and full wallet backups may have been missing the keys required to move funds on-chain after requesting a remote force close. Affected users will receive a warning when starting Electrum and should export new backups, as old backups cannot correctly recover funds in this scenario. This version also strengthens Lightning HTLC verification, rejects previously accepted malformed xpub/xprv keys, expands codebase security hardening, and prevents the Android QR code scanner from reading screenshots. This is Electrum's third security-focused release since July, following versions 4.8.0 and 4.8.1.

Odaily reports: A Fox Business crypto reporter posted on X that U.S. Senate Republicans have released an updated text of the CLARITY Act following negotiations during the August recess.

According to Chaotiang Research, a Goldman Sachs research report dated September 8, 2026 notes that Broadcom reaffirmed its FY27/FY28 AI revenue targets of $115 billion and $230 billion at the CommunaCopia conference, stating that supply, not demand, remains the primary constraint. Land acquisition, power capacity, and facility construction for data centers represent the true bottlenecks to AI deployment, whereas supply chain constraints remain relatively manageable. Broadcom’s $35 billion XPV partnership with Blackstone and Apollo can support over 20 gigawatts of AI compute capacity while capping Broadcom’s direct financial exposure. A 1-gigawatt AI cluster generates approximately $30 billion in annual revenue, with annual operating costs of around $10 billion. Broadcom believes that the economic value of AI primarily flows to the owners of frontier models. Annual industry training expenditure stands at approximately $200 billion. Frontier models capture roughly 75% of industry revenue ($120 billion in revenue against $100 billion in costs), while open-source models generate only about $30 billion in revenue despite similar investment levels. Goldman Sachs maintains a Buy rating, setting a target price of $540 based on 30x normalized earnings per share of $18, implying approximately 51% upside from the current stock price.
Odaily News: OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar stated that the company is accelerating the expansion of AI into specialized fields such as chip design, life sciences, and financial services, and is experimenting with pricing based on business outcomes rather than usage. OpenAI's enterprise business revenue grew 32% from June to July this year, while the company's overall annualized revenue increased approximately 20% during the same period. As of mid-year, revenue from enterprise and consumer businesses had split roughly evenly.Additionally, OpenAI recently cut the price of its low-cost Luna model by 80%, which was followed by an approximate 10-fold increase in usage. Friar noted that in cloud deployment scenarios, Luna's cost is even lower than Z.ai's GLM 5.3. OpenAI's coding tool Codex has now reached 25 million users. The company is also leveraging its own AI models to assist in developing the Jalapeno chip and completed chip design tape-out within nine months. (Reuters)
