Lightchain AI Launches Final Bonus Round After Completing 15 Presale Stages and Raising $20.9M
The Bonus Round offers tokens at a fixed price of $0.007125, presenting a final opportunity for early participants to acquire LCAI before the transition to public trading. This phase also coincides with new ecosystem developments, including a grant initiative and upcoming developer onboarding tools.
Presale Completion Signals Market Momentum
Lightchain AI 's presale, which was structured across 15 progressive funding stages, reached its hard cap target with broad support from retail and strategic contributors. The structured approach ensured measured token distribution and early ecosystem growth while minimizing volatility.
The platform's architecture is designed to power decentralized artificial intelligence through the Artificial Intelligence Virtual Machine (AIVM) and a proprietary Proof-of-Intelligence (PoI) consensus model. This model rewards validator nodes for completing valuable AI computations, creating a sustainable framework for network participation and data processing.
Ecosystem Tools and Grants Rolling Out
Following the presale, Lightchain AI is expanding its Developer Portal, which provides SDKs, APIs, and comprehensive technical documentation to enable builders to launch and scale AI-powered decentralized applications. In parallel, a $150,000 grant pool has been allocated to fund early-stage projects contributing to the Lightchain ecosystem.
In a move to further promote decentralization and developer alignment, the originally designated 5% Team Allocation has been reallocated toward ecosystem growth, community incentives, and validator support. Public GitHub repositories are scheduled to go live alongside the mainnet launch to promote transparent and collaborative development.
Bonus Round to Close Ahead of Mainnet
With the Bonus Round now live, Lightchain AI is finalizing preparations for mainnet deployment. The round will remain open for a limited time, offering fixed pricing and early access benefits for participants, including governance opportunities, developer incentives, and validator onboarding.
'Completing 15 stages and entering the Bonus Round represents a major leap forward for Lightchain AI,' said a project spokesperson. 'We are focused on delivering a scalable and intelligent blockchain infrastructure, and this final phase allows the community to grow with us as we approach launch.'

UK Shoppers Are Buying More Big Brands as They Eat Out Less
Shoppers are buying more branded grocery items in the UK, seeking cheaper ways to treat themselves at home rather than spending more to eat out. Sales of branded goods like confectionery and soft drinks grew by 6.1% in the four weeks to August 10, ahead of cheaper supermarket own-label alternatives which were up by 4.1%, according to retail data company Worldpanel. It's the largest gap in favor of brands since March last year.

Is Ultrahuman's Ring Air Now the Most Accurate Ovulation-Tracking Smart Ring?
Ultrahuman's new Cycle and Ovulation Pro feature for the Ring Air has an unexpected origin story. The algorithm behind it was originally designed for intravaginal fertility monitors, but Ultrahuman has since turned it into a non-invasive, temperature-sensing tool that can track ovulation right from your finger. The wearable health tech company announced on Friday that it acquired viO HealthTech, which created the OvuSense algorithm. Validated in 13 peer-reviewed clinical publications and backed by 15 years of clinical research, the algorithm draws on data from over 260,000 cycles collected with medical-grade sensors. It was previously used in class II intravaginal medical fertility monitors. Now, Ultrahuman has adapted that technology for wellness tracking to create its Cycle and Ovulation Pro PowerPlug for the Ring Air. How accurate is Ultrahuman's Cycle and Ovulation Pro? In a press release, Ultrahuman said Cycle and Ovulation Pro delivers over 90% accuracy in confirming ovulation -- a level the company said makes the Air the "world's most accurate cycle-tracking smart ring." This data comes from equivalence testing that compared OvuSense and Ring Air with a multi-hormone ovulation prediction method that tracks rises in luteinizing hormone and progesterone. Though other cycle trackers may report different ovulation confirmation rates -- for example, the Oura Ring claims 96.4% -- that data isn't directly comparable to OvuSense and Ring Air's testing due to differences in validation protocols, datasets and definitions of detection. Ultrahuman Most platforms that track menstrual cycles rely on a 28-day cycle, but Cycle and Ovulation Pro takes into consideration that 87% of people who menstruate have varying cycles due to conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome, endometriosis, non-bleeding, thyroid disorders or irregular bleeding. "This collaboration benefits from 15 years of clinically proven women's health expertise and applies it to the world's lightest smart ring," said Mohit Kumar, Ultrahuman CEO, in the press release. "For the first time, best-in-class hardware, software and algorithms with a clinical background come together in one wellness device. Our mission is to give women cutting-edge tools to optimize their health, combining clinical technology with comfort and style to deliver the most accurate women's health tool available." How is Pro different from the free Cycle and Ovulation PowerPlug? Cycle and Ovulation Pro complements Ultrahuman Ring Air's existing free Cycle and Ovulation PowerPlug, which provides basic conception and cycle tracking. Using physiological patterns and temperature biomarkers passively captured by the smart ring, the Pro version can support fertility planning, offer a space for mood, symptom and behavior logging and use temperature data to suggest hidden patterns in a cycle. Known as Cycle Flags, these patterns may include early, late or absent ovulation, a short luteal phase and trends potentially linked to conditions such as PCOS or miscarriage risk. Ultrahuman A note on FDA clearance While the OvuSense algorithm is FDA-cleared for intravaginal use, the adapted, non-invasive version for the Ultrahuman Ring Air was created for general wellness and isn't FDA-cleared. In other words, the Ring Air isn't a substitute for contraception or for professional medical diagnosis and treatment. For those, you should consult your health care provider. Cycle and Ovulation Pro cost Now available in the US, UK, EU, Australia and Canada, Cycle and Ovulation Pro is a premium PowerPlug in the Ultrahuman app that costs $3.99 per month or $39.99 per year. The current Cycle and Ovulation PowerPlug remains free.

Apple Encryption Fight—U.S. Forces U.K. To Drop ‘Back Door'
This could be the biggest Apple update of 2025, surpassing anything that comes from the release of iOS 26 and even iPhone 17. It seems that rumors the U.S. has forced the U.K. to end its demand for Apple to compromise its own encryption are real. 'Over the past few months,' Tulsi Gabbard posted on X, I've been working closely with our partners in the UK, alongside @POTUS and @VP, to ensure Americans' private data remains private and our Constitutional rights and civil liberties are protected." 'As a result,' America's Director of National Intelligence confirmed late on Monday, 'the UK has agreed to drop its mandate for Apple to provide a 'back door' that would have enabled access to the protected encrypted data of American citizens and encroached on our civil liberties.' If this pans out, it ends the saga of the secret / not secret furor over a National Security directive placed on Apple by the U.K. government to provide access to fully encrypted iCloud data. That resulted in the iPhone-mazker dropped its most secure encryption in the U.K. for new users and a widespread backlash amongst the privacy lobby. This comes as the other privacy furor of 2025 — age verification for online content — has resulted in a raft of complaints about the implications on a free and open internet. But the encryption back door is much more serious. There's no such thing as selective compromises when it comes to encryption. Any back door of any sort can be exploited by bad actors, and Apple has been right to dig its heels in. It has been joined by Meta and others in the fight to keep privacy data private. This is a breaking story and we await confirmation and further details.
