According to a report by Bitcoin News on the X platform, Jack Dorsey's Block has applied to the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to establish Builders Bank & Trust, a nationally regulated trust bank. If approved, the bank will provide custody and related trust services for Bitcoin and stablecoins, focusing on protecting client assets. It will not accept checks or savings deposits, nor will it offer loans. Lee Woolley, Block's Head of Digital Asset Strategy, will serve as the bank's president and CEO.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that a public hearing was held in Plattsburgh, New York, to discuss a temporary land use ban for high-energy-consuming computing facilities such as AI data centers and cryptocurrency mining. If passed, the ban would suspend approvals for projects with electricity demands of 300 kilowatts or more for 12 months. As of Tuesday, Plattsburgh Mayor Wendell Hughes had not yet approved the ban. The city council plans to meet again on September 17 to continue considering the proposal. Plattsburgh previously implemented an 18-month ban on Bitcoin mining in 2018 due to residents' concerns about electricity costs. Currently, some cryptocurrency mining companies are shifting to AI and high-performance computing businesses, and related industries are facing challenges such as increased mining difficulty, higher electricity costs, and falling token prices.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Bitcoin reserve company Strategy is selling Nike Air Jordan and Nike Dunk sneakers bearing its own logo on its official website store, priced at $250 each. Both shoes are currently sold out and are not official Nike collaboration products. The Strategy store currently only accepts credit cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay, and does not support payments using Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. This payment method has drawn criticism from social media users, with some pointing out that Bitcoin-themed merchandise cannot be purchased with BTC. On Tuesday morning after the Labor Day holiday, Saylor stated that Strategy had repurchased $176 million of STRC preferred stock. Simultaneously, the company recently suspended Bitcoin purchases, and discussions about the sneaker merchandise have emerged on social media. (Bitcoin.com News)
