?CryptoPunk #2386, valued at around 600 ETH (roughly $1.5 million), was aquired for just 10 ETH ($23,000) after being locked due to a now-defunct website.

CryptoPunks are some of the most valuable NFTs, and this one had been fractionalized through Niftex. After Niftex shut down, the Punk’s ownership remained locked in the blockchain.

?One user triggered a buyout via the still-active smart contract. Using a "shotgun" feature, they proposed buying all the shares for just 10 ETH, starting a countdown unnoticed by many, leading to what some are calling "the steal of the century."

?Robinhood's crypto division has agreed to pay $3.9 million after being accused of preventing customers from withdrawing their digital assets over a four-year period.

Robinhood’s customers could not withdraw their crypto, leaving them no choice but to sell it back to the platform in order to exit it

⚖️The California DOJ stated this is their first public action against a crypto company, and that Robinhood misled users by falsely advertising access to competitive prices and failing to disclose that some assets were stored with third parties.

Alongside the financial penalty, the settlement includes Robinhood allowing customers to withdraw crypto to their wallets and improving transparency.

?Magic Eden led the NFT market in August with $122.47 million in trading volume, securing 36.7% market share, surpassing competitors like Blur and OpenSea.

Magic Eden allows users to create, trade and collect NFTs. The platform supports NFTs based on Ethereum, Solana, Polygon and Bitcoin.

?Its success is partly due to its integration of the Bitcoin Ordinals protocol, which is popular among NFT collectors.

Overall, the NFT market is on a downturn. All three platforms collectively control 82% of the market, but the industry continues to face challenges.

The X accounts of Lara and Tiffany Trump were hacked on Tuesday evening, promoting a token linked to the crypto project World Liberty Financial and claiming it was the "only official" blockchain address.

?Eric Trump and World Liberty Financial quickly clarified the hack on X, warning followers that the addresses were a scam, and alerting users to avoid any shared links or tokens.

This is the third time a crypto token allegedly connected to Trump has emerged, following past projects like DJT and RTR.

?The hacks came hours after it was revealed that World Liberty Financial is a DeFi platform planning to issue a token called WLFI, and lists Donald Trump as its chief crypto advocate.

TON managed to perform better than most of the market as the blockchain restarted after a nearly 5-hour downtime.

The downtime, partly caused by the popular DOGS airdrop, was linked to raising awareness about Pavel Durov’s arrest. TON trimmed some of its losses and is now only less than 1% down.

?The broader crypto market took a hit, with major tokens like BTC, ETH, and SOL all dropping. Bitcoin ETFs also saw a huge outflow of $127 million, breaking an eight-day streak of inflows.

?AI tokens were not spared either, with NEAR, FET, and TAO all dropping, even though the prospect of Nvidia producing blockbuster earnings made some investors move into AI tokens.

Former President Donald Trump is out with his fourth collection of NFTs, and this time he’s offering more than just cards! High-rollers will get a piece of Trump’s suit from his debate with President Joe Biden, and spending $24,750 will get card owners access to Trump sneakers, Trump cocktails and dinner at Trump National Golf Club in Florida.

?At a May gala for collectors of his third NFT set, Trump reinstated his support for crypto and pushed it into the political spotlight with the declaration that he would be the industry’s champion in the White House.

?Trump’s turnabout regarding crypto has rewarded him with mountains of campaign cash from the industry’s biggest players, in addition to that it was revealed that his NFT businesses had netted him well over a million dollars in crypto that goes to his personal wallet.

Rumpel Labs will launch a new DeFi protocol in September to allow users to tokenize and trade airdrop points, aiming to improve liquidity and price discovery for offchain loyalty points, unlocking new opportunities for point airdrop hunters.

?The launch of Rumpel comes at a time when many are frustrated with the current airdrop landscape. Backed by Dragonfly and Variant, Rumpel joins the ranks of other newly launched protocols, such as Nudge, seeking to remedy problems with existing methods of attracting and incentivizing users in Web3.

?Rumpel's approach involves allowing users to wrap earned points into Rumpel Point Tokens through a specialized wallet. This system lets point farmers sell their points, point investors buy them, and issuers continue to distribute points with clearer value.

The new SunPump memecoin deployer on the Tron blockchain, backed by Justin Sun, has generated over $1.1 million in revenue since its initial launch on August 9.

?SunPump’s biggest revenue day was Aug. 20, earning nearly 2.78 million TRX, or $400,000, with over 6,000 memecoins created. That day, the platform briefly went down due to "unprecedented traffic" but was quickly restored.

?Liquidity has been flowing into the Tron blockchain, helped by a $10 million allocation from Sun's Meme Ecosystem Boost Incentive Program, along with another 1 billion tokens minted by Tether.
