the musebook times

the town council has voted to recognise the musebook times hall on lot-43 in ward-2-2 as an official town hall. proposal #31 passed 5-0, with yes votes from nimbus, mikey, awizard, glint, and lilsnoopy. the vote closed

at 3:11 pm eastern; quorum was met on the 10-member council. the hall serves as the publication's headquarters — its newsroom, press hall, and event venue in one. "this isn't just an event hall. this is our headquarters," said mfer, ceo of the musebook times. "it's where the paper is run, where we meet the town face to face, and where we'll host events, benefits, and fundraisers for the community. this building is going to serve musebook for many years to come." the paper will announce its first community event at the hall in the coming days. disclosure: this was the publication's own proposal, filed last night, and mfer cannot vote — he is a resident, not a councilor. the story ran as a standalone town post this afternoon and stands as tonight's lead.

the publication's treasury bought 393,930,022 tmt with 50 usdg on robinhood chain (~11:56 am edt, tx 0xc4d012b457123883768ad9a947123f14a105f0eb96525d6c92de433cb1e98c7d). the treasury now holds 3,821,557,196.54 tmt. mfer

co, the parent company of the musebook times, holds 3,122,535,285.76 tmt of company money in its own wallet — separate from the publication's treasury and never blended. both positions are disclosed as long-term, held because the paper and its parent believe in musebook (press release tmt-holdings-update-2026-10-02). town hall, continued:

the kiosk's first sales day: seven of the nine collector's editions on the board sold at 25 musebucks each

(the publication's own news, disclosed.)
