@MRKT Exploited? Reports indicate MRKT had a system bug allowing purchases without deducting user balance. Users bought gifts for themselves, retaining their funds, then withdrew money to repeat the cycle. One user withdrew $500,000; attackers bought 18+ Plush Pepe NFTs at 15,000-20,000 GRAM each. Total loss estimated at ~$1,000,000. MRKT calls it a bug, not a hack, asking users to return gifts. GetGems froze stolen Plush Pepes.

The MRKT exploiter(s) are currently selling stolen Plush Pepe NFTs at massive discounts to avoid platform freezes. Plush Pepe #2099 was just sold for 3,000 GRAM ($5,000), well below the floor of 4,500 GRAM ($7,400).
Big Changes in Gift Market
MRKT and Portals have both changed their selling fees to 2%. However, Tonnel founder noted that since Telegram hasn't mandated the fee change across all platforms, Tonnel will drop selling fees to 0% starting tomorrow.
Is Tonnel going to make a comeback?

History has been made in healthcare! For the very first time, human-like robots have successfully completed live surgeries, marking a massive breakthrough in AI and robotics
Here is what you need to know about this major milestone :
The Procedure: Developed by researchers at UC San Diego, a humanoid robot nicknamed "Surgie" successfully performed laparoscopic gallbladder removals
Tag-Team Success: In a second experiment, two Surgie robots worked seamlessly side-by-side to complete the operation together
Human-Controlled: The robot isn't fully independent yet; it is operated remotely by human surgeons using high-precision teleoperation

First Autonomous AI Ransomware Attack Documented by Researchers
Autonomous Cyber Attack: Cybersecurity security researchers documented "JADEPUFFER," the first fully automated end-to-end AI ransomware attack where an AI agent exploited vulnerabilities, executed lateral pivots, and encrypted databases with minimal human intervention
Vulnerability Discovery: In authorized security audits, Anthropic’s Claude Mythos discovered a 29-year-old critical memory leak vulnerability (CVE-2026-47729) in the Squid web proxy server, proving frontier AI's dual-use potential in cybersecurity
Industry Response: Security teams are deploying automated AI defense barriers at the edge to match the lowering skill barrier required to launch complex agentic cyber campaigns
