The main diagonal of the difference table is -A000079(n) = -2^n.
a(n) mod 9 is of period 6: repeat 8, 7, 5, 1, 2, 4.
a(n) + a(n+1) = -3, -6, -3, 3, 15, ...; all are multiples of 3.

The inverse binomial transform of A153130, after dropping A153130(0).
The inverse binomial transform of the full A153130 is A158916.
Dropping two initial terms of A153130 yields A158935, dropping three yields essentially a sign-reversed version of A158916, dropping 4 essentially the sequence here.
