ElizaOS Token Collapses to All-Time Low as Foundation Shuts Down
Eliza Labs founder Shaw Walters declared the ElizaOS (ELIZAOS) token “dead” and said the foundation is winding down, sending the altcoin token to a record low. Walters posted the statement on X, telling holders that no supply, buybacks, or foundation support remain to defend the price. What Happened With ELIZAOS Walters said law firm Burwick sued the project, and his side settled with a group of holders. The team handed over what he described as the rest of the treasury and all remaining money. He called the claim “ridiculous” but said the project lacked the capital to fight it in court.

Source: CoinGecko Walters said Eliza Labs privately settled with a group of tokenholders represented by Burwick Law by agreeing to give them its remaining treasury and funds. He called the suit “ridiculous” but said the project lacked the capital to continue fighting it. The lawsuit, filed in April, named Eliza Labs, Walters, Sebastian Quinn-Watson and the AI16Z DAO as defendants. It alleged false advertising, deceptive practices, negligent misrepresentation and unjust enrichment.
Trump confronts Hegseth over US munitions shortages at Camp David meeting
The munities shortfall came up directly in the Camp David sit‑down, with Trump pressing Hegseth on why the supply chain is lagging. The president highlighted that dwindling ammo stocks could force the military to rethink operational tempo, especially in high‑intensity zones.
Hegseth acknowledged a bottleneck at key production facilities, noting that recent spikes in demand have outpaced current output. He said the Pentagon is accelerating contracts with existing manufacturers while scouting new partners to shore up the gap.
Analysts see the shortage as a reminder that defense logistics are a real risk factor for any geopolitical escalation. It may temper expectations for rapid force deployments in the near term.
Overall, the conversation underscored that even the highest‑level strategic planning has to accommodate material constraints, a point that could ripple through both policy circles and market sentiment.

What Happens to Crypto If the CLARITY Act Fails This Week? Hougan Explains
Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan said the CLARITY Act could fail to pass this week, but that would not mean the end of the legislation or the crypto industry’s progress. The US Senate is scheduled to leave for its August recess on Friday, August 7, and return on September 14. Under Senate rules, lawmakers must file for cloture on the CLARITY Act by Wednesday, August 5, for the bill to have a chance of receiving a vote before the recess. A failure this week would also not necessarily end the act. Hougan expects the legislation to enter a “walking dead” state.

Bitcoin Miners are Leaving the Network. Will It Impact BTC Price?
The Bitcoin (BTC) 30-day mean hash rate has fallen 19% since November 2025, sliding from 1,108 EH/s to 898 EH/s. Glassnode data shows the nine-month decline is the longest in the network’s history. The slide coincides with the largest capital migration miners have ever staged. Public mining firms hold over $70 billion in AI contracts, and converted capacity may never return. Bitcoin has seen only two comparable drawdowns in its modern era, and both ended quickly. The current one has not ended at all, according to Glassnode data. The 2021 collapse cut deeper in percentage terms.
