U.S. President Donald Trump has once again promised that if the Republican Party wins the House of Representatives and the Senate in the midterm elections, every adult American citizen will receive a $5,000 dividend. This plan was previously proposed by Trump and remains a campaign promise.When asked whether this funding requires Congressional approval, Trump stated that they believe it does not; if it does, Congress will approve it. He also set a prerequisite that the funds must be spent within the United States, expressing a desire that this money does not flow to other countries, and claimed that this initiative will inject momentum into the economy.Based on approximately 240 million adult American citizens, the plan is expected to cost about $1.2 trillion, making it one of the largest economic stimulus plans in the U.S. since the COVID-19 pandemic.

Digital asset media Generation Infinity (Genfinity) reported on October 2, 2026, that Luxembourg has confirmed that investment funds can issue shares natively on distributed ledgers, with relevant units existing only in token form. The account also stated that Luxembourg is the largest investment fund jurisdiction in Europe and the second-largest fund center in the world.The above confirmation corresponds to the first version of the "FAQ - Tokenisation" released the same day by the Luxembourg Financial Supervisory Authority (CSSF). The document clarifies that Luxembourg collective investment undertakings (UCI) can use distributed ledger technology to issue native shares or stocks that exist only in token form, but the operational model must comply with the applicable regulatory framework. Issuing on a distributed ledger does not determine the legal form of the underlying securities, and the relevant shares or stocks can be issued in registered or paperless form.

The founder of Pons, Ozzy, posted on platform X in response to community concerns about the PONS buyback and burn mechanism, stating that the current burn rate has indeed not been adjusted, and the "Claim" process has not yet achieved complete decentralization.He mentioned that an on-chain contract upgrade is currently underway, with a new buyback mechanism planned to execute a Claim every 7 days. Subsequently, all funds received in the following 7 days will be used for buyback and destruction of PONS, and this process will repeat to establish a more sustainable buyback and burn mechanism. Currently, all buyback and burn operations have been automated. Anyone can trigger this bot and receive a small reward for this action.He further stated that the previously set buyback and burn rate is 2e per hour. Combined with the current funding scale of approximately 950,000 USD in the Splitter (fund diversion contract), this rate aligns with the 7-day buyback cycle. Funds will also be automatically executed according to the 7-day cycle after being claimed, so the buyback funds will be displayed in two different sections: one is the current active buyback fund pool (Active Buyback Vault), and the other is reserved for the buyback funds for the next week.Previously, crypto analyst yyy posted on platform X stating that Pons has not replenished funds to the buyback allocator for over 5 days, with approximately 440,000 USD in the escrow account awaiting claim. He believes that the untimely claiming of funds has led to a low burn rate of PONS recently and calls for promoting the decentralization of fund claims from the escrow account.

U.S. Vice President JD Vance stated at the All-In Summit that U.S. AI data centers are facing increasing opposition, largely because the power supply has not kept up. Residents see data centers being built continuously while their electricity bills are rising, which naturally leads to backlash. He believes the solution is not to build fewer data centers but to increase power generation capacity accordingly.Vance mentioned that the U.S. has not built enough power facilities in the past generation, and in the future, it should pursue a state where "electricity is so cheap that it doesn't need to be metered." He also compared this to China, arguing that the slow growth of power generation in the U.S. in recent years has already affected the development of new industries like AI. "So cheap that it doesn't need to be metered" is an old slogan from the history of U.S. nuclear energy. In 1954, Lewis Strauss, the chairman of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, used it to describe the era of cheap electricity brought by atomic energy.The IEA estimates that data centers will contribute to about half of the new electricity demand in the U.S. by 2025; the U.S. Congress is also advancing legislation this week to try to prevent the costs of expanding data centers from being passed on to ordinary households.
