After the Collapse of the Believe Flywheel Myth, the 26-Year-Old Prodigy Founder Stands as Defendant in Federal Court

In March 2026, 26-year-old Australian entrepreneur Ben Pasternak and his entities B24, Inc. and Believe Foundation were sued in a New York federal court. Investors accused Pasternak of deceptive practices and false advertising through three consecutive token offerings and a forced token migration, causing hundreds of millions in losses. The case centers on Believe (formerly Clout.me), a Solana-based social token launch platform Pasternak founded. Users could create tokens via tweets, with the platform token LAUNCHCOIN reaching a peak market cap of $370 million in May 2025. Pasternak initially claimed he had "zero ownership" of his self-named token, PASTERNAK, which crashed over 95% within a week. In October 2025, Believe forced a migration from LAUNCHCOIN to a new token, BELIEVE, increasing total supply by 33.3%. New tokens were allocated to team members, investors, and the foundation, diluting existing holders. Pasternak falsely claimed no tokens were allocated to insiders for a year, while the foundation received 40 million tokens with no lock-up. The platform generated an estimated $54 million in fees from $6 billion in trading volume. Pasternak earned creator fees throughout. After the migration, significant selling occurred from top wallets. BELIEVE’s value plummeted from its peak to around $1.2 million. Pasternak, a former teen prodigy who dropped out of school at 15, had previously founded apps like Monkey and the food-tech startup NUGGS. His personal life also drew attention, including a public breakup in early 2026. Once hailed as "the next Zuckerberg," he now faces legal and reputational collapse.

Giants Collectively Raise Prices, Is the AI Price Hike Wave Coming? Can We Still Afford Lobster Employees?

Major AI companies, including Alibaba Cloud, Baidu Intelligent Cloud, Tencent Cloud, and Zhipu, have recently announced significant price increases for AI computing and storage services, with hikes ranging from 5% to over 460% in some models. This trend follows similar moves by global giants like Amazon AWS and Google Cloud earlier this year. The price surge is driven by explosive demand for computing power, fueled by the rapid adoption of AI agents like OpenClaw (referred to as "Lobster" in the article), which consume tokens at rates dozens or even hundreds of times higher than traditional AI applications. This has created a severe supply-demand imbalance. Additionally, shortages in high-end hardware—such as AI chips and high-bandwidth memory (HBM)—have constrained computing capacity and raised operational costs. The industry is shifting away from loss-leading pricing strategies toward value-based models, prioritizing sustainable development over market-share competition. A new "token economy" is emerging, where pricing is increasingly based on token usage, complexity, and speed rather than flat fees. This reflects AI computing's evolution from a generic service to a specialized, high-value resource. Some companies are even considering token allowances as part of employee benefits, highlighting its growing role as both a production tool and a cost factor. The article concludes by questioning whether AI services will remain affordable as compute costs continue to rise.

From 'Word Unit' to 'Symbol Unit': The Debate Over the Chinese Translation of 'Token' and Its Underlying AI Cognitive Implications

Recent discussions have emerged regarding the official Chinese translation of the AI term "Token," which has been recommended as “词元” (Cíyuán, meaning "word unit") by the National Committee for Terminology in Science and Technology. While this translation is argued to align with historical usage in natural language processing (NLP) and is considered concise and communicable, this article presents a critical counterview advocating for “符元” (Fúyuán, meaning "symbol unit") as a more structurally accurate and future-proof alternative. The author argues that defining Token based on its origin in NLP—as a linguistic semantic unit—overlooks its evolution into a general-purpose, discrete symbolic unit used across multimodal systems (text, image, audio, etc.). Using “词元” ties the concept too narrowly to language, causing cognitive misalignment and semantic drift when applied in non-linguistic contexts. By contrast, “符元” reflects Token’s fundamental role as a symbol in information theory and computation, independent of modality. The article further critiques the reliance on metaphorical extensions (e.g., comparing image patches to “words”) as insufficient for rigorous terminology. It highlights risks including confusion with existing linguistic terms like Lemma (also translated as “词元”), poor cross-lingual reversibility (e.g., difficult back-translation to English), and systemic misunderstanding among non-expert audiences. In conclusion, the author emphasizes that terminology should align with computational essence—not historical usage or explanatory convenience—to ensure conceptual clarity and scalability in AI’s multidisciplinary future. “符元” is proposed as a more neutral, stable, and structurally coherent translation for Token.
