The sandwich attack bot operated by JaredfromSubway.eth has extracted a total of 117,007 ETH since March 2023, amounting to approximately $295 million at current prices. In June 2026, an anonymous attacker deployed 66 counterfeit token contracts, using the bot's automated trading logic to steal at least $7.5 million in ETH and stablecoins, transferring the funds to Tornado Cash; the related assets have not yet been recovered.Sandwich attacks are a form of Maximum Extractable Value (MEV): the bot monitors large transactions in the Ethereum public mempool, buys before the target transaction, and sells after the transaction drives up the price, extracting profits from the price difference. As of August 28, the main contract of the bot has received a total of 117,007 ETH.MEV-Boost block construction is concentrated among a few participants, with relay.ultrasound.money, Titan Relay, and bloXroute relays forwarding approximately 85% to 88% of the relevant blocks within a 24-hour window; Titan's builders independently assemble 50.3% of the blocks. The monthly extraction amount from sandwich attacks has decreased from about $10 million at the end of 2024 to about $2.5 million in October 2025.

Renowned trader Killa stated tonight that data from several bull and bear cycles of Bitcoin indicates that the depth of the bear market is gradually becoming shallower, and the bottom of this cycle may have already formed. The expectation of some latecomers for Bitcoin to "drop to $50,000 in October" is almost impossible.However, Killa also pointed out that if Bitcoin were to drop to $61,000, the expected value of long position liquidations could reach $20 billion. Market makers have the motivation and possibility to liquidate long positions and re-establish them. Killa, as a quantitative trader focused on BTC, predicted the peak of this bull market in May 2025 and has over 200,000 followers on platform X. In mid-April, he shorted Bitcoin at $74,688 and switched to long during the market-wide decline on June 5.

Fidelity Global Macro Research Director Jurrien Timmer stated that Bitcoin has maintained its power law curve bottom and has adjusted long enough to meet the time factor of the four-year cycle.

At the Bitcoin Asia Conference, Simon Gerovich, CEO of the Japanese listed company Metaplanet, stated that the bottom of Bitcoin has already appeared, and the opportunity moment for Asia has arrived. He pointed out that the past few cycles belonged to the West, while the first Asian cycle has begun.Gerovich revealed that since Metaplanet shifted from hotel and technology businesses to Bitcoin reserves in 2024, it currently holds approximately 43,000 Bitcoins, valued at about $3.3 billion. He emphasized that Japanese households hold about $14 trillion in financial assets, with approximately half stored in nearly zero-yield bank deposits, and these savings are looking for new destinations.Gerovich called on Asian businesses, institutions, and savers to seize the current market conditions and build Bitcoin infrastructure in their respective regions. He stated that the end of cash hoarding strategies coinciding with the introduction of new regulatory rules together constitute the biggest opportunity in today's Asian market.

Meta is testing robots for maintaining its artificial intelligence system data centers, including machines for replacing network cables, rebooting servers, and inspecting equipment. According to WIRED, Meta has tested robots from San Francisco's Watney Robotics, Quebec's Kinova, and Zurich's ABB to reduce labor costs. An employee estimated that a successful cable replacement robot could replace up to 80% of the work in certain positions, but the machine currently cannot match human speed.Meta's robotics program has raised concerns, with employees believing that automation may reduce the demand for experienced technicians and shift remaining work to low-wage positions operated by AI instructions. A Meta spokesperson stated that the U.S. is experiencing the largest infrastructure boom since World War II, with a severe shortage of skilled workers, and the company needs more workers, not fewer. Currently, robots still require human supervision and face challenges with obstacles, battery life, visual inspections, and handling dense cabling.Nvidia and Alibaba are also developing systems to improve robot training. ACE Robotics Chairman Wang Xiaogang stated that embodied AI could experience a "ChatGPT moment" by the end of 2027. Additionally, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates proposed taxing robots and AI tokens, believing that the current tax system may make machines cheaper than employees.

Crypto analyst Ali Charts posted on platform X that Bitcoin's current trend is highly similar to the bottoming pattern in 2023. In 2023, Bitcoin broke the downward trend and tested the previous high in August, then retraced to around $20,000 before starting to rise.It seems that a similar structure is forming now, with a key observation level near $83,000 around the high in May 2026.

Investor Joanna Lichter published a post outlining the working hypothesis of value accumulation in the robotics field, which she believes has a barbell structure: one end consists of horizontal robotic foundation models (RFM) and infrastructure platforms that achieve compound growth through data, computing power, and ecosystems; the other end consists of category-leading application companies that capture value by transforming intelligence into useful work. The middle layer lacks attractiveness, including interchangeable models, easily replicable tools, and deployments lacking software leverage.She pointed out that, unlike large language models, robotics faces distribution costs, scarce physical data, real-time computing power limitations, and security constraints, presenting a gated diffusion rather than immediate large-scale adoption. If deployment can form a learning feedback loop, reducing the manpower required per robot and accumulating reusable data and operational knowledge, it can become a moat. Vertical entry points can accelerate this path, allowing value to ultimately accumulate at both ends of the technology stack.

Venture capitalist Tomasz Tunguz pointed out that the narrative of AI infrastructure resembles a slow relay race, with bottlenecks sequentially transmitting from GPUs to memory, CPUs, and storage, each link freezing the supply chain of the next for years and locking in higher baseline costs. At the beginning of 2023, the GPU shock caused H100 rental prices to exceed $9 per hour, and server shipments fell by 22%; subsequently, manufacturers shifted capacity to HBM, leading to an 80% quarterly increase in enterprise SSD prices and over a 60% rise in DRAM.By the end of 2025, the workload of intelligent agents will push the CPU to GPU ratio to about 1:1, with the average price of server CPUs rising by 27% year-on-year; in 2026, nearline HDD annual capacity will be sold out. The construction cost of data centers has risen to about $20 billion per gigawatt, with orders for long-cycle equipment such as transformers and turbines scheduled as far out as 2029 to 2031.Tunguz referred to this as the long whip effect in the hardware sector: years of manufacturing delays amplify downstream demand shocks upstream, and when pressure is relieved at a certain bottleneck, it will be delayed in transmitting to the next link, with transformers scheduled for delivery in 2027 to 2028, NAND wafer fabs, and turbine production lines potentially facing the risk of overcapacity.
