According to Odaily, GPU computing power rental platform Clore has officially launched its token buyback program. As the first step of this initiative, Clore has converted $30,000 worth of Bitcoin earnings into 660,000 CLORE tokens. Clore stated that this is just the beginning of the plan, and they will continue to support buybacks when market conditions are favorable.

According to Odaily, Pierre Rochard, Vice President of Research at Riot Platforms, highlighted that in Texas, excess electricity production has occasionally driven prices down to zero. Bitcoin miners have been able to absorb this surplus energy, effectively stabilizing the power grid. This analysis comes amid ongoing criticism of Bitcoin mining for its energy consumption and environmental impact. However, it also offers significant benefits, particularly in terms of grid stability and energy efficiency. A key advantage is that Bitcoin miners can quickly turn their mining equipment on and off, responding to fluctuations in energy demand. In related news, Agile Energy X, a subsidiary of Tokyo Electric Power Grid, announced earlier today that it has begun installing Bitcoin mining equipment next to solar power plants in Tochigi and Gunma prefectures. This initiative aims to utilize surplus renewable energy for mining experiments. If 10% of this energy is used for Bitcoin mining, it is expected to generate approximately 360 billion yen (2.5 billion USD) in annual revenue. This move seeks to address the issue of power wastage due to the volatility of renewable energy generation while supporting Japan's goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050.

According to BlockBeats, data from Coinglass indicates that if Bitcoin's price rises above $57,000, the cumulative liquidation intensity of short positions on major centralized exchanges (CEX) will reach $786 million. Conversely, if Bitcoin's price falls below $53,000, the cumulative liquidation intensity of short positions on major CEX will amount to $1.303 billion. BlockBeats notes that the liquidation chart does not display the exact number of contracts pending liquidation or the precise value of liquidated contracts. Instead, the bars on the chart represent the relative importance of each liquidation cluster compared to adjacent clusters, indicating intensity. Therefore, the chart illustrates the extent to which the target price reaching a certain level will be affected. Higher 'liquidation bars' suggest that the price reaching that level will result in a more intense reaction due to liquidity waves.

比特币矿企 Riot Platforms 的研究副总裁 Pierre Rochard 表示，在得克萨斯州，过剩的电力生产导致其价格一度降至 0 美元，而比特币矿工能够吸收这些多余的能源，从而有效稳定了电网。 分析指出，比特币挖矿经常因其能源消耗和环境影响而受到批评。然而，它也提供了显著的好处，特别是在电网稳定和能源效率方面。一个关键的优势是，比特币矿工能够立即开启和关闭挖矿设备，从而对能源需求的波动做出反应。（CryptoSlate） 今日早些时候消息，日本东京电力电网子公司 Agile Energy X 宣布开始在栃木县和群马县的太阳能发电站旁安装比特币挖矿设备，利用可再生能源剩余电力进行挖矿实验。如果能够利用其中 10%进行比特币挖矿，预计可产生约 3600 亿日元（25 亿美元）的年收入。此举旨在解决可再生能源发电波动性带来的电力浪费问题，同时支持日本政府 2050 年实现碳中和的目标。

DAO 治理平台 Snapshot X 已正式上线。该平台引入了基于 Layer 2 的新协议，通过 Starknet 的 rollup 技术，实现了 DAO 零 Gas 费的链上投票功能。 Snapshot Labs 的 COO Jeremy Musighi 称这是链上治理的转折点，首次使 DAO 能够为社区提供免费的链上投票，提高决策参与度。 Snapshot X 利用 STARK 扩展技术和存储证明，实现了跨链安全投票，无需转移代币或支付 Gas 费。该系统还利用交易中继器 Mana，允许用户使用以太坊钱包签名投票，然后将投票中继到 Starknet 网络。（The Block）

GPU 算力租用平台 Clore 官方宣布正式启动代币回购计划。作为该计划的第一步，Clore 已经将价值 3 万美元的比特币收益兑换成 66 万个 CLORE 代币。Clore 表示，这仅仅是计划的开始，他们将在市场条件有利时继续支持回购。

According to Cointelegraph, participants in decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) and other blockchain communities can now vote onchain without incurring gas fees, thanks to the launch of Snapshot X. This new governance protocol, built on Starknet’s rollup technology, aims to address the cost and inefficiency associated with governance by eliminating the need for centralized offchain voting and the expenses tied to onchain voting. Eli Ben-Sasson, CEO of StarkWare and board member at the Starknet Foundation, highlighted that this development would enable many DAOs and other entities to adopt gas-free voting. He noted that individuals with voting rights in DAOs that currently vote onchain will no longer be required to pay gas fees, which have sometimes exceeded $10, deterring democratic participation. Snapshot X leverages Starknet technology and storage proofs to facilitate gas-free voting, allowing users to prove asset ownership on one blockchain without transferring them. This approach purportedly reduces costs and enhances security, enabling onchain governance on one blockchain while maintaining assets on another. Jeremy Musighi, Snapshot Labs’ chief operating officer, emphasized the protocol’s modular design, which offers customizable, trustless, and decentralized voting. Starting on September 10, the Starknet crypto community will be the first to utilize Snapshot X for a gasless vote on a staking proposal affecting native STRK tokenholders. STRK holders will decide on the minting mechanism for Starknet staking through a custom interface built on Snapshot X, with the Starknet Governance Hub facilitating the vote. The staking vote, set to conclude on September 13, will determine new token distribution, creation, and the allowance of minting modifications over time to ensure sustainability and balance. In related news, on August 28, Starknet rolled out upgrade 0.13.2, introducing parallel execution to enable the simultaneous processing of multiple transactions. As the first to implement this technology on an L2 network on the Ethereum mainnet, Ben-Sasson expects it to become an industry standard. The new technology addresses the limitations of sequential transaction processing, which traditionally leads to bottlenecks during periods of high demand for L2 networks.
