On August 25, the Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) submitted comments to the US SEC and CFTC, stating that both agencies have been working over the past year to find answers regarding the classification of perpetual contracts. HPC believes that perpetual contracts for stocks, which possess traditional characteristics of futures contracts, can be classified as security futures. HPC urges the US SEC and CFTC to establish a unified classification system for perpetual contracts, based on the characteristics of each contract and its trading methods, grouping similar products together regardless of whether they reference Bitcoin, crude oil, or individual securities. HPC calls for the US SEC and CFTC to take the following four actions: 1. Confirm that the definition of security futures includes the established characteristics of futures contracts, allowing cash-settled stock perpetual contracts with these characteristics to be listed as security futures. 2. Retain the flexibility that trading venues currently have in product listing decisions. 3. Maintain consistency in classification between the two agencies so that perpetual contracts, regardless of the underlying asset, receive the same threshold classification. 4. Modernize the security futures framework to revitalize the category and adapt to new product structures.

According to Beating AI news, Apple is preparing to update the Mac mini, with a release expected in the coming days, possibly before the September iPhone launch event. This will be the first update to the Mac mini in nearly two years. Apple has tested versions equipped with M5 and M6 series chips, but the final configuration has not yet been determined. This update coincides with a rare shortage of Mac mini units, which have become increasingly popular this year for running large models and AI agents locally due to their affordability, energy efficiency, and quiet operation. In April, several M4 Mac mini models were sold out on Apple's official website, and second-hand platforms even began to sell them at a markup. Meanwhile, AI data centers are aggressively competing for memory and storage chips. In May, Apple eliminated the $599 entry-level 256GB model, raising the starting price of the Mac mini to $799. Tim Cook has previously acknowledged that the supply constraints for the Mac mini will continue for some time.
