According to an official announcement, The Sandbox has officially opened SAND compensation claims. Users affected by the SAND cross-chain contract vulnerability incident on Base and BNB Smart Chain (BSC) on August 22 will receive full SAND compensation on the Ethereum network at a 1:1 ratio, provided they held bridged SAND on the affected networks before the incident. Eligibility is based on on-chain balance snapshots taken prior to the event and is independent of any transactions, transfers, or holdings users made after the incident. The Sandbox stated that compensation eligibility is determined by on-chain balances recorded before the contract exploit. The Base network snapshot corresponds to Block 50283188 at 23:42:03 UTC on August 21, 2026, while the BSC snapshot is Block 117322025 at 11:42:44 UTC on the same date. Users holding SAND on Base or BSC via centralized exchanges do not need to take any action, as The Sandbox is coordinating with relevant platforms to process compensation. Those holding SAND in personal wallets must submit claims on their own. The claim period runs from September 8 to 24:00 UTC+8 on September 22. To file a claim, users only need to initiate a single transaction from the original wallet that held SAND at the snapshot time—no token authorization, off-chain message signing, or transfers to any addresses are required.

According to Bloomberg, the UK has reopened ￡4.25 billion in gilts maturing in 2056, with an issuance yield of 5.8168%—the highest yield paid on a UK government bond since at least the establishment of the UK Debt Management Office in 1998. A source familiar with the matter said the pricing of this transaction was 0.75 basis points higher than the yield on UK gilts maturing in December 2055 with a 4.25% coupon. The offering ultimately drew ￡85 billion in subscriptions, resulting in a 20x oversubscription ratio, and the gilt carries a 5.375% coupon. The joint lead managers for the deal are BofA Securities, Goldman Sachs International, JPMorgan, Santander, and UBS Investment Bank.

According to Bloomberg, SpaceX’s share price has been trading in a narrow range recently, but a new wave of buying may be coming soon as the Nasdaq 100 index will undergo its quarterly rebalance later this month. The key factors include a little-known rule in the construction of this tech-heavy benchmark and the staged lock-up period arrangements for shareholders of Elon Musk’s satellite and space exploration company. These elements have limited the number of SpaceX shares available for trading in the current market.
