GPT-6 Astra Claims Top Spot in Perplexity’s Research Agent Rankings: 13.5% More Performant Than Fable 5.1, 6.1% Cheaper

According to GMGN data, the stock-meme project GME (GameStop) on Robinhood Chain briefly saw its market capitalization exceed $16 million, hitting an all-time high. It has since retreated to $14.2 million, with a 24-hour gain of over 440% and trading volume of $4.3 million. GME leverages the Robinhood stock trading platform, pairing with tokenized U.S. stock GameStop (ticker: GME) as its liquidity pool, using the GME/GME trading pair to provide liquidity. BlockBeats Note: Stock Meme refers to an emerging trend that combines traditional meme coins with tokenized U.S. stocks: instead of pairing meme coins with USDT or ETH, they are directly matched with on-chain U.S. stock tokens (such as NVDA, TSLA, AAPL, etc.). This retains meme coins' high volatility and community-driven speculative attributes while tying to the popularity and narrative of real stocks. A portion of transaction fees typically flows back to the community treasury to accumulate corresponding U.S. stock tokens, forming a dual-driven model of "sentiment speculation + real asset anchoring". Prices are highly volatile; investors should exercise caution.

Dongcha’s Beating AI News Flash: OpenCode has launched another anonymous model, Omen Alpha, but its identity appears to have been exposed early. OpenCode’s own data page directly lists it under Zhipu. Zhipu has not yet officially acknowledged the model, nor has it revealed which GLM model it is. This comes just 9 days after the previous anonymous model was unveiled. Previously, Zhipu used the alias Ox Alpha for GLM-5.3-Flash, offering it for free testing on OpenRouter and OpenCode. It only officially revealed the model’s true identity and opened its weights on August 26. This time, there’s no free access: Omen Alpha is only available to OpenCode Go subscribers paying $10 monthly, with the plan including $100 worth of Omen usage. It charges $0.20 per million input tokens and $0.66 per million output tokens—roughly 30% higher than GLM-5.3-Flash’s official price. However, GLM-5.3-Flash is currently on a 50% discount, so Omen Alpha is about 1.6 times more expensive at current rates. Omen Alpha’s official specifications remain unannounced: OpenCode has not disclosed details on its context window, input modalities, or maximum output. Some in the community speculate it could be a new GLM-5.x or Omni variant.

CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. stated that Bitcoin is approaching the threshold to enter a bull market. Over the past 24 hours, BTC’s price rose 3.9%, while open interest increased by roughly 11,200 BTC, a 3.4% jump, signaling the current upward momentum is primarily driven by the derivatives market. Data shows open interest once surged by 15,200 BTC within 6 hours, pushing the leverage flow pressure index to 63; long positions were added for 15 of the past 24 hours. Adler pointed out that if a rally is mainly fueled by short covering and liquidations, open interest typically declines, but this time it has risen notably instead, meaning new futures leverage is the key driver of the price increase. His one-year model has not yet officially flipped to bull market territory. Confirmation signals require Bitcoin to close above the model’s dynamic threshold on a daily basis and hold that level without a rapid unwinding of leverage; the main risk is that accumulated leverage could be liquidated suddenly, triggering a market reversal.

According to market data from BIT (bit.com), U.S.-listed AMC (the U.S. cinema chain operator) is up more than 18% in pre-market trading, currently trading at $3.02.

According to an official announcement, Binance will add watch tags for AVA (AVA), Gains Network (GNS), Scroll (SCR), and Towns Protocol (TOWNS). Compared to other listed tokens, watch-tagged assets have higher volatility and greater associated risk. Trading these tokens is risky, as they no longer meet the exchange’s listing standards and are subject to potential delisting.
