LIT surges past $5.3, with its 24-hour price gain widening to 10.4%

The U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE)’s periodic transaction report (OGE Form 278-T) released on September 22 shows that Donald Trump’s accounts purchased Class A shares of Strategy Inc. (MSTR) in late July. The 37-page document lists a total of 1,156 securities transactions in July, including three entries related to Strategy: a sale on July 8 (valued at $1,001–$15,000), a purchase on July 24 (same value range), and another purchase on July 27 (valued at $50,001–$100,000). This is not the first time Trump’s accounts have held Strategy stock: the May filing covering January to March listed 8 Strategy transactions, while June saw 2 sales with no buys. The two July 24 and 27 purchases are new trades in subsequent reporting windows, adding to existing positions. Per BIT (bit.com) market data, MSTR has risen roughly 83% since July 24, a period when Strategy was facing challenges at the time of Trump’s buys. The White House has previously stated that the stock and bond ledger is not traded by the president himself; holdings are in a discretionary account managed by a third-party firm, with some transactions for model portfolios tracking established indices. The filings are still submitted under Trump’s name because he is the beneficiary.

Nvidia-backed startup Starcloud plans to launch a space-based bitcoin mining operation by the end of this year. CEO Philip Johnston said in an interview, "We will be the first company to mine bitcoin in space, and we will carry some bitcoin mining ASICs on our second spacecraft, which is scheduled to launch later this year." Founded in 2024, Starcloud’s core goal is to send its data centers into space, leveraging continuous solar power and radiative cooling to avoid ground licensing restrictions while scaling to gigawatt-level computing power. Starcloud-2, the second of the company’s four planned satellites, is positioned as its first commercial mission and will carry a GPU cluster, though the official project page does not mention bitcoin mining or ASICs. Johnston explained the financial rationale behind the shift to bitcoin mining: ASICs cost roughly 30 times less per kilowatt than GPUs. A 1-kilowatt Nvidia B200 chip costs around $30,000, while a 1-kilowatt ASIC is only about $1,000.

Flash News from Beating AI Insight: Meta has responded to the controversy that its Muse tool resembles OpenClaw. Nat Friedman, product lead at Meta’s Superintelligence Lab, stated that Muse is indeed “heavily inspired by OpenClaw” but was built from scratch, not running OpenClaw directly. The community’s suspicion arose because the two tools’ workspaces are too similar. Muse was found to include files such as `SOUL.md`, `IDENTITY.md`, `USER.md`, `MEMORY.md`, `AGENTS.md`, and `TOOLS.md`—the same design OpenClaw uses to store agent personalities, user information, memories, and operational rules. Community comparisons also revealed the content of their `SOUL.md` files is nearly identical. Friedman did not deny these similarities. He explained that after using OpenClaw in January this year, he purchased hundreds of Mac minis for Meta’s Superintelligence Lab team, leading many members to subsequently start using OpenClaw and other personal agents. When questioned why even the filenames and `SOUL.md` were so similar, he replied that the team believed OpenClaw creator Peter Steinberger “got these things completely right.”
