DashTape reports that well-known trader LaserCat posted on X platform stating that despite recent pullbacks in related Meme coin prices, he believes that "the price changed, but the narrative didn't." His buying logic and sell targets remain unchanged, and he is still bullish on "Bull Run" and "Hakimi." Compared to the overall sluggish performance of on-chain Meme coins in previous months, the market has now seen a large number of Meme coins with market caps ranging from millions to tens of millions of dollars. Funds are currently mainly waiting for the relevant meeting on the 11th and the bill progress on the 15th, with the overall market in a wait-and-see state. The market only needs one signal to confirm the bull run. LaserCat stated that all current holdings can be verified on-chain, and there are no plans to exit at this time.

DashTape reports Hunter Biden, son of former U.S. President Biden, posted on X: "Our foundation's account has currently been suspended. The foundation will never give up on LAPTOP, and we are doing everything we can to get the account restored. In the meantime, the foundation will share the latest updates and thoughts via Medium."

DashTape reports DeFi researcher Ignas posted on X platform stating that current stock and Meme coin narratives essentially depend on trading volume and transaction fees to function. If trading volume dries up, rewards and buybacks will also disappear, thereby weakening token-holding incentives and ultimately leading to sell-offs. He cited examples: STONK, PONS, and CASHCAT all use platform fees for token buybacks or burns; INDEX uses transaction fees to purchase tokenized stocks; ZCAT funds ZEC rewards through transaction taxes. Additionally, SHROOM reinvests fees generated by the LP network back into liquidity. Ignas used Coinbase's previous cycle as an example, noting that its quarterly trading volume dropped from $547 billion in Q4 2021 to $145 billion a year later, a decline of approximately 74%, and pointed out that Meme coin trading volume could see an even more pronounced drop after the hype fades. Therefore, directly extrapolating these projects' annual revenue or yield rates based on current high trading volume and fee levels may overestimate their sustainability.

DashTape reports: The Hunter Biden Meme token LAPTOP Foundation has announced that the LAPTOP initial liquidity pool launched at a price of $0.05. Due to high market demand, participation by sniper bots, and insufficient initial liquidity from market makers, the price rapidly surged and then fell back in a short period. To improve liquidity, the team will inject 4 million LAPTOP tokens (0.4% of total supply) starting September 10 at 00:00 UTC to incentivize the Aerodrome liquidity pool. In addition, two prediction events in the Predictions allocation have been confirmed to settle as YES, corresponding to 10 million LAPTOP tokens that will be burned, accounting for 1% of total supply. The team also stated that the 30% of LAPTOP held by the founding team will be locked for 6 months and gradually unlocked over two years, custodied by Coinbase Custody; the 30% of tokens in the Predictions allocation will be locked for 12 months. Another 80 million LAPTOP will be claimable by subscribers who joined Hunter Substack before September 6, and any unclaimed portion after the 30-day claim period ends will be burned.
