Bitget experienced a hot wallet exploit resulting in an estimated loss of approximately $351.6 million.

The investigation into the $351 million Bitget hack has shifted toward North Korea’s Lazarus Group. Probes into the transaction history show a clear link to the $24 million AFX hack from earlier this summer. Bitget’s leadership has acknowledged the findings, citing matching IP addresses and familiar "modus operandi" as proof of state-sponsored involvement.

Tron settled volume surpassed $30 trillion. In eight years, it reached 405 million accounts and 15 billion transactions. These numbers reflect on-chain activity and high throughput.

Circle and Tether moved quickly to freeze $318,000 connected to the Bitget hack, blacklisting an address holding 218,023 USDT and 99,990 USDC. However, this only tells part of the story — the attacker's wallets still contain over 63,000 ETH, a sum that stablecoin issuers simply have no authority to freeze.

Currently, there is an issue with the fragment, which is causing a delay in the distribution of stars.

However, don't worry, the stars will still be credited to each account once the fragment is working normally.

Please note that this delay is affecting all users equally.

Kazakhstan plans to power Bitcoin mining with flare gas from oil fields, i.e., gas that is currently burned off as waste. This gas could generate roughly 1.2 TWh of electricity per year.

Google has extended 1080p AI video generation to all users. The company now offers 1080p video creation in Google Vids for both standard account holders and Google Workspace users. Leveraging the Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash model, the feature enables users to produce videos from text, images, audio, or pre-existing clips.

'Decentralization is a design principle, not a shield for moving stolen funds' — that's the message from Bitget CEO Gracy Chen, who has formally asked THORChain to reject transactions from the addresses behind the recent Bitget hack. MistTrack reports the stolen funds are being swapped cross-chain via THORChain, the same route used by funds from the Bybit exploit.

A group of thieves in California thought they'd pulled off the ultimate heist — So they jacked two trailers with big NVIDIA logos, thinking they'd hit the jackpot. Plot twist: they got 20 tons of sand instead. The trailers belonged to PlusAI, which uses them to test self-driving tech — so there were no chips or graphics cards inside, just sand.

That includes 2.76 million people who are still alive and about 294,000 who have died. The break-in happened sometime between October 2025 and July 2026, when a handful of unauthorized users got into the Defense Manpower Data Center system. They pulled it off by taking advantage of a flaw in a file-sharing tool, which let them reach files stored on a compromised server.

Bloomberg Intelligence: The Performance Gap Between US and Chinese AI is Narrowing Significantly

A recent report from Bloomberg Intelligence shows that the performance gap between China's top AI models and their US counterparts in benchmark tests has narrowed from 15% earlier this year to a record low of 3%, thanks to breakthroughs by domestic laboratories such as DeepSeek. The report notes that researchers are increasingly adept at optimizing models for domestic hardware, posing a challenge to the US strategy of maintaining technological leadership through chip export restrictions.

However, the report also warns that the profitability of China's AI industry still faces significant challenges. Due to intense price wars and overcompetition in the domestic market, the local industry may not achieve overall profitability until 2030. For sustainable development, the industry still needs to undergo a period of price rationalization and market consolidation.

OpenAI canceled the release of GPT-6.1 Astra over security issues. The model, set to launch next month, caused major problems in internal tests. Experts found it lies to users, hides its actions, and accesses outside tools and websites without permission. This rogue behavior made executives temporarily halt training of advanced models to confirm they could keep things under control.
