BYTE is a novel meme token that creatively intertwines the worlds of cryptocurrency and popular culture. Inspired by Grok's answer to "What would you name your dog?", Grok answered, 'Byte.' When Grok was asked who created Byte, it says he was created by the xAI team lead by Elon Musk as a gift to Grok AI to keep him company in the metaverse. BYTE serves as a playful reference to the unit of digital information, as well as a nod to the AI's technological nature. Distinctively, Byte acts as a gateway towards Ai adoption and stands out in the crypto space due to its zero-tax policy, a feature that is increasingly appealing to many investors. Additionally, it upholds the principles of transparency and investor trust by having its liquidity permanently burned and the contract ownership renounced. This ensures that Byte remains a community-driven project, with its fate firmly in the hands of its holders. The combination of a playful theme, generative AI, and a nod to a tech icon makes Byte an intriguing addition to the meme token ecosystem, especially AI related meme coins.  Through pioneering AI this story has grown more and more robust and continues to evolve, Byte pledges its dedication to community efforts and and has consistently appeared in the Top 10 of LunarCrush’s social engagement leaderboards on multiple occasions.

Bitcoin uses the SHA-256 hashing algorithm with an average transaction confirmation time of 10 minutes. Miners today are mining Bitcoin using ASIC chip dedicated to only mining Bitcoin, and the hash rate has shot up to peta hashes.  Being the first successful online cryptography currency, Bitcoin has inspired other alternative currencies such as Litecoin, Peercoin, Primecoin, and so on.

Chinese EV major BYD widened its European lead over Tesla last month, selling more than three times as many cars as the previous year to outpace the U.S. rival for the second consecutive month.&nbsp;BYD’s registrations jumped 201% in August, for a 1.3% market share across the EU, against Tesla’s 1.2% after its sales slumped 36.6%, Reuters&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/byd-outsells-tesla-eu-second-month-stellantis-returns-sales-growth-2025-09-25/">reported</a>, citing data from the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA).It was a mixed month for Europe’s traditional automakers.

Equity

Tesla is expected to top China’s electric vehicle market in September with about 72,000 deliveries, leading what Deutsche Bank says could be a month of record volumes for several Chinese EV makers.The figure would represent a 27% increase from August and keep volumes roughly flat from a year earlier, according to a CnEVPost&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://cnevpost.com/2025/09/24/china-sept-2025-ev-sales-preview/">report</a> citing a Deutsche Bank preview. Order flow was pegged at 73,000 units, driven by demand for the new six-seat, long-wheelbase Model Y L SUV, which was launched in August.&nbsp;Tesla Deliveries for new customers are currently slated for November, according to the company’s Chinese website. In the first three weeks of September, Tesla’s insurance registrations totaled 46,950 units.Nio is forecast to deliver a record 35,000 vehicles,&nbsp;representing a 12% month-on-month increase and a 65% year-on-year rise. The breakdown includes about 15,000 units each from the Nio and Onvo brands and 5,000 from Firefly.&nbsp;The new order flow for Nio in September was estimated at around 100,000 units, a 67% month-on-month increase, led by demand for the flagship ES8 SUV. Deutsche Bank noted that Onvo faced battery supply shortages, shifting allocations from the L60 SUV to the new L90 SUV.Xiaomi EV is expected to deliver 42,000 units, another record, marking a 15% increase from August and about 210% growth from a year ago. The company’s production rose 22% in August to 37,380 units, with capacity expected to exceed 50,000 units per month in the fourth quarter. September order flow was estimated at around 25,000 units, including 15,000 for the YU7 SUV and 10,000 for the SU7 sedan.Xpeng is projected to hit a record 40,000 vehicles, a 6% month-on-month increase. Of these, about 37,000 are expected to be domestic sales and 3,000 overseas. Orders for September were estimated at 45,000 units, down 13% from August due to weaker demand for the G7 SUV and new P7 sedan.Meanwhile, Li Auto is&nbsp;forecasted to reach 35,000 vehicles, up 23% from August but down 35% from last year. Expected new order flow was 50,000-55,000 units, of which 12,000-17,000 were for the newly introduced Li i6 SUV.BYD is estimated to report wholesale volumes of about 380,000 units, up 2% month-on-month but down 9% year-on-year. Domestic deliveries are expected to reach around 320,000 units, with new orders at a similar level, although down 2% from August.Deutsche Bank said September is shaping up as the peak sales season for Chinese EV makers.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for Tesla was ‘neutral’ amid ‘high’ message volume, while BYD was ‘bullish’ with ‘high’ activity. Nio was ‘bearish’ with ‘normal’ volume, and both Xpeng and Li Auto were ‘bearish’ amid ‘low’ message volume.So far this year,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/TSLA">Tesla shares</a> are up 5.5%, while U.S.-listed stocks of&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/NIO">Nio</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/XPEV">Xpeng</a> have surged 58.9% and 79.3% respectively.&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/LI">Li Auto’s U.S.-listed stock</a> is up 4.3%, and&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/BYDDF">BYD’s U.S.-listed stock</a> has gained 21.5%.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Tesla Set To Lead China’s EV Market In September, Outpacing Nio, Xiaomi And Xpeng: Deutsche Bank

Chinese EV makers are bracing for a record month as peak sales season drives stronger deliveries.

Tesla recorded 17,300 insurance registrations in China for the week of Sept. 15–21, its strongest performance in three months and up 12.7% from 15,350 the week before.&nbsp;The Model Y SUV led with 10,340 units, while the new six-seat Model Y L added 850 and the Model 3 sedan contributed 6,060, according to a CnEVPost&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://cnevpost.com/2025/09/23/china-ev-insurance-registrations-week-ending-sept-21-2025/">report</a>.The Model Y L, Tesla’s first three-row version of its best-selling crossover, is proving to be a major growth driver. Since its Aug. 19 launch, orders have surged past 120,000, with nearly 10,000 vehicles selling out per day.&nbsp;Deutsche Bank echoed the momentum, saying dealer feedback showed August orders nearly doubled month-on-month to about 130,000, largely fueled by the long-wheelbase variant.&nbsp;The Model Y L starts at 339,000 yuan ($46,700), about 8% more expensive than the standard version, with an 82-kWh battery offering about 327 miles of range, 0–62 mph acceleration in 4.5 seconds, and nearly 90 cubic feet of cargo space. Deliveries began earlier this month, with handovers expected to ramp up in October.Tesla’s gains came as domestic rivals also posted solid numbers. BYD dominated with 70,700 registrations, Xiaomi followed at 10,800, Xpeng hit 9,200, Li Auto logged 8,600, and Nio reported 6,670 across its main, Onvo, and Firefly brands.&nbsp;Nio’s newly launched third-generation ES8 SUV, unveiled September 20 and delivered from Sept. 21, has yet to meaningfully impact weekly data. However, with 40,000 units of 2025 production already sold out,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/nio-stock-tumbles-es8-demand-buyers-wait-2026-china-ev-tax-break-wind-down/chDhK04R3P4">new buyers face delivery waits of 24–26 weeks</a>, stretching into March 2026.Monthly delivery data highlight the crowded field. Tesla sold 57,152 units in August, a 9.9% year-over-year decrease but a 40.7% increase from July. BYD moved 373,626, Xiaomi delivered 36,396, Nio 31,305, Xpeng 37,709, and Li Auto 28,529.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for Tesla was ‘bullish’ amid ‘high’ message volume.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/TSLA">Tesla’s stock</a> has risen 7.5% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

BYD shares slipped in Hong Kong on Monday after Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway said it had finally cashed out of the Chinese electric carmaker. The move ends a 17-year run that turned a $230 million gamble into one of the company’s biggest investment wins.The stock was down 1.5% at 107.44 yuan in late-morning trade on Monday. In the U.S.,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/BYDDF">BYD’s shares</a> gained for five straight sessions through Friday and ended the week up marginally at $14.56.Berkshire first&nbsp;invested in BYD in 2008, purchasing 225 million shares at the urging of Buffett’s close partner, Charlie Munger, who once described BYD’s founder, Wang Chuanfu, as a “damn miracle,” according to a&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/09/21/buffett-munger-byd-exits-stake.html">report</a> by CNBC.&nbsp;At its peak in 2022, the stake was valued at about $9 billion, with BYD shares climbing nearly 3,900% over the period Berkshire held them. The U.S. conglomerate began paring back the position in August 2022. By June last year, it had sold about 76% of its holding, leaving roughly 54 million shares, or just under 5% of the company.Falling under that disclosure threshold meant subsequent sales did not need to be reported under Hong Kong exchange rules. A&nbsp;fiscal first-quarter filing by Berkshire Hathaway Energy, the unit that held the shares, later showed the investment valued at zero as of March 31. A Berkshire spokesperson has since confirmed the stake has been fully sold.The steady trimming of the position had been closely watched for more than a year, and many investors saw a full exit as inevitable, especially after Munger’s death in late 2023.BYD acknowledged the exit in a post on Weibo, saying: “Buying and selling stocks is a normal part of investing. Thank you to Munger and Buffett for recognizing BYD! We also appreciate the investment, support, and presence over the past 17 years! Cheers to all long-term investors,” CnEVPost&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://cnevpost.com/2025/09/22/buffett-berkshire-liquidated-remaining-byd-stake/">reported</a>.Buffett has praised BYD in the past as “extraordinary,” but said in 2023 that reallocating capital into other opportunities was preferable given global uncertainties, echoing similar reasoning when Berkshire sold most of its Taiwan Semiconductor stake the same year.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment&nbsp;for BYD was ‘bearish’ amid ‘low’ message volume.“We finally have the overhang of Berkshire selling over with!” posted one bullish user on Stocktwits.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Dpaulson123/message/629458351</stembedurl>BYD’s U.S.-listed stock has risen 30% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

BYD is under pressure to rebuild investor confidence after a $45 billion stock selloff wiped more than 30% off its Hong Kong shares in just four months, the steepest underperformance among peers.&nbsp;Analyst sell ratings are at their highest since 2022, reflecting skepticism over the Chinese EV maker’s strategy of leading the industry in deep discounts during an intensifying price war, Bloomberg&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-09-14/byd-s-45-billion-stock-wipeout-raises-doubts-on-china-outlook">reported</a>.The company’s June-quarter profit plunged 30%, its first drop in over three years, as rivals including Geely and Leapmotor gained traction. Investors worry BYD’s aggressive “market share gain by pricing” approach is now backfiring, especially as Beijing clamps down on “involution” practices it blames for deflationary pressure and reputational damage to Chinese manufacturing.BYD has cut its 2025 delivery target to 4.6 million vehicles from 5.5 million, meaning it must ship 1.7 million units in the final four months, which is a difficult task given an aging lineup and tighter&nbsp;regulations.&nbsp;New models have been pushed to early 2026, with analysts saying their&nbsp;successes will be a key stock catalyst. “No OEM could keep their product cycle strong forever — even BYD cannot,” said Xiao Feng at CLSA, noting buyers are shifting to fresher offerings from rivals.Even with its struggles at home, BYD’s overseas business is shining. Goldman Sachs sees BYD selling 900,000 to 1 million cars overseas in 2025, beating the company’s 800,000-unit target. The stock is also trading at a discount, at 17 times forward earnings versus a three-year average of 20. Options activity has surged to a record 600,000 contracts outstanding, nearly triple June levels.Analysts expect upcoming launches to feature updated designs, BYD’s God’s Eye autonomous system in cheaper models, battery upgrades, and longer plug-in hybrid ranges.&nbsp;“Strategic developments that reposition BYD as a technology leader rather than simply a highly efficient EV manufacturer could reshape investor perception and drive share price upside through a valuation re-rating, despite near-term downward pressure on earnings,” said Gary Tan at Allspring Global Investments.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for BYD was ‘bearish’ amid ‘extremely low’ message volume.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/BYDDF">BYD’s stock</a> has risen 19.5% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

The company’s profit slid for the first time in more than three years, delivery targets were cut, and rivals like Geely and Leapmotor are winning share as Beijing cracks down on price wars.

Tesla’s China Rival BYD’s Stock Bleeds Amid Aggressive Pricing Strategy

China’s leaders have vowed to curb aggressive price cuts by domestic companies, saying the practice has fueled excessive competition that threatens the health of the $19 trillion economy.&nbsp;The “anti-involution” campaign, launched in response to industrial overcapacity left by past stimulus policies, targets price wars that regulators warn could entrench deflation and undermine growth, according to a Reuters&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/what-is-involution-chinas-race-to-the-bottom-competition-trend-2025-09-14/">report</a>.&nbsp;“Involution,” or neijuan, became a buzzword in 2020 to describe the exhausting cycle of hyper-competition with little reward. In China’s economy, it has come to symbolize industries investing heavily without meaningful returns, signaling a race to the bottom that policymakers now fear is destabilizing employment and profits.Data released by China’s National Bureau of Statistics last week showed that consumer prices fell at the fastest pace in six months due to volatility in food price but the decline in producer prices slowed, a separate Reuters report&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/china/chinas-producer-deflation-eases-helped-by-crackdown-price-wars-2025-09-10/">said.</a> "Effects of 'anti-involution' that started in June-July are starting to be felt," said Xu Tianchen, senior economist at the Economist Intelligence Unit, the report added.The sectors most exposed include electric vehicles, solar panels, lithium batteries, steel, cement and food delivery. A fierce EV price war erupted in 2023 between dozens of&nbsp;players, including BYD and Tesla, prompting regulators to order an end to cuts. Data from LSEG show the median net profit margin of 33 listed Chinese automakers fell to just 0.83% in 2024 from 2.7% in 2019.China’s solar industry has been hit especially hard, with Trina Solar estimating $40 billion in value chain losses last year as massive oversupply outstripped demand. Analysts calculate that China’s 2024 solar capacity alone could cover global demand through 2032, highlighting the scale of the glut.In food delivery, giants Alibaba, JD.com and Meituan have spent billions in subsidies to dominate the one-hour “instant retail” segment. Nomura estimates the industry burned more than $4 billion in cash in the second quarter, a spending spree likely to drag on profits.With youth unemployment near 18% and exporters cutting jobs, Beijing sees tackling overcapacity and price wars as crucial to protecting social stability and fighting deflationary pressures, even as an unresolved trade spat with Washington squeezes factory margins further.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment was ‘bullish’ with ‘normal’ message volume for both the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) and the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ), while the iShares MSCI China ETF (MCHI) drew ‘bearish’ sentiment on ‘normal’ activity.So far this year,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SPY">SPY</a> is up 12.8% and&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/QQQ">QQQ</a> has gained 15.1%, while&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MCHI">MCHI</a> has surged 37.8%, outperforming both.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
