claim

The blockchain security platform Phalcon stated that approximately 6 hours ago, around 3.55 million dollars of unclaimed cross-chain funds were claimed and transferred. Phalcon raised the question: Was the related transaction initiated by the fund owner, or did the attacker obtain valid EIP-7702 authorization?On-chain information shows that the claim was submitted by address 0x24a9, with funds coming from Tornado Cash and executed through EIP-7702 delegation on an external account. The two transaction amounts were 1.33 million dollars and 2.22 million dollars, with on-chain data confirming the validity of the related authorization.A few days ago, on-chain researcher stuckfunds.eth repeatedly sent messages to address 0x4943, informing the owner that the related funds were still claimable. Currently, on-chain data cannot confirm whether the owner intentionally signed, was induced to sign, or if the private key has been leaked.

According to the Financial Times, DWF Labs' DWF Maas and Falcon Digital have sued the cryptocurrency custody company BitGo in the High Court of London, accusing it of violating over-the-counter (OTC) agreements by selling Falcon Finance (FF) and ESPORTS tokens before the agreed lock-up period ended, resulting in a drop in token prices.According to the lawsuit, both parties agreed that the tokens would be offered at a discounted price but must adhere to a three-month lock-up period and subsequent phased unlocking arrangements. DWF claims that BitGo transferred the tokens to exchanges about two months before the first unlocking, causing market sell-off pressure and damaging the value of its remaining holdings, thus seeking $141 million in damages. BitGo declined to comment on the lawsuit, and the related allegations have not yet been adjudicated by the court.

The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Central District of California stated that a 26-year-old man, Adam Iza, who calls himself the "Godfather," has been sentenced to 78 months in prison and must pay $23.4 million in restitution. He pleaded guilty in January 2025 to charges of conspiracy to violate rights, wire fraud, and tax evasion, and has been in custody since September 2024. This sentence will run concurrently with the 15-year sentence he received last month for an attempted Bitcoin robbery, which will not increase his actual time served.From August 2021 to April 2022, Iza hired off-duty Los Angeles County police officers as private security and admitted to conspiring with them to obtain law enforcement confidential records and personal data of individuals he had disputes with, obtaining court-authorized search warrants to track these individuals, and having the officers intimidate and threaten them. The Department of Justice stated that five former officers have been convicted for working for him, including 42-year-old Eric Chase Saavedra, who set up a security company providing these officers, and was sentenced to 21 months; 45-year-old Michael David Coberg, who assisted in extorting rivals and arranged false drug arrests, is serving a 63-month sentence. The prosecution wrote in the sentencing memorandum that wealthy individuals cannot buy "search warrants, arrests, badges, or guns" for private disputes.In another fraud case, since December 2020, Iza gained access to a Meta Business Manager account and its associated credit line, reselling it to advertising companies, with Meta clients being charged for ads they never purchased. After discovering this, Meta refunded the clients and absorbed the losses.

Mr. Li Yi, a Douyin user, posted a video on social media stating that on June 10 of this year, he downloaded a fake wallet from the official Huawei store, which led to the exposure of his mnemonic phrase and the theft of 177,473 USDT.According to his description, the hacker changed the permissions of his wallet address to multi-signature, and then implemented a secondary scam under the pretext of unlocking it for spending money. After the victim transferred funds, all USDT in the address was transferred away.Mr. Li Yi claimed that after he released the video exposing the app, the download volume of the app in the official store plummeted. The hacker repeatedly gathered internet trolls to report his video, causing it to be forcibly taken down, and privately attempted to negotiate a conditional agreement to delete the video.He also stated that after conducting a private investigation, he learned that the scam app had five servers set up in Hong Kong, paying to have the app listed in the Huawei official store and to boost its ranking, causing a large number of victims to download it first in searches. Due to relevant bans in mainland China, related wallet apps cannot be normally launched in the store, so any app that cannot be launched but does exist in the store may be a counterfeit scam app.

Drift Foundation has explained the compensation plan following the hacking of the protocol: for every 1 USDT lost, users can receive 1 DFX token, and the redemption amount depends on the recovery pool balance, which currently only covers about 1% of the total claims;Tether has committed to providing up to 127.5 million USDT to support the protocol restart and user compensation, with the funds being linked to the net protocol revenue of Velocity and not disbursed in a lump sum; the claims deadline is January 1, 2028, and users can choose to hold DFX or trade on secondary markets like Raydium, with the only official link being dfx.drift.trade.

Users can receive 1 DFX token for every 1 USDT lost, with the current payout rate being approximately 0.0104 USDT per DFX, which is about 1% of the loss.The current compensation pool is approximately 3.11 million USDT, with a total supply of DFX being around 299.5 million tokens and no further issuance planned. The Drift Foundation stated that the compensation pool will continue to be funded with protocol revenue, and Tether has committed to providing up to 127.5 million USDT to support the restart and user compensation, with the claim deadline set for January 1, 2028. Previously, Drift suffered an attack in April, resulting in a loss of approximately 295.4 million USD.

AI startup Tavus released a new model called Griffin on October 1, referring to it as the first "human interaction model" that can understand and generate face-to-face conversations, paying attention not only to wording but also to expressions and pauses. Tavus stated that in tests, after a one-minute video call with Griffin-Lite, 26 out of 54 participants (48%) believed the other party was a real person; its previous generation system only convinced 1 out of 41 participants.Participants were told they would have a one-minute video call with another person to discuss things they were looking forward to this year, and only at the end of the call were they asked if they suspected the other party was not a real person. Tavus noted that those who became suspicious typically noticed within 20 seconds. This result comes from Tavus's own research page, where participants were recruited through a channel they call an independent research platform. Community comments on X pointed out that these results have not been independently verified and do not meet standard protocols.In the NVIDIA VideoFDB benchmark, Tavus claimed Griffin-Lite ranked first, with a generation dimension score of 3.83, the next best system scoring 2.8, and human reference scoring 3.92; the perception dimension score was 3.73, with the strongest baseline at 3.44 and human reference at 4.2. Tavus stated that NVIDIA independently conducted this evaluation. Griffin supports full duplex, allowing it to listen, see, and speak simultaneously, with an average audio-video delay of 0.43 seconds on the NVIDIA H100 chip. Tavus completed a $40 million Series B funding round led by CRV in November 2025.

According to Cointelegraph, NEAR Intents General Manager Alex Shevchenko stated that the team has confirmed the identity of the hacker behind the previous security incident and has given them a 48-hour deadline to return the stolen funds through "responsible disclosure."NEAR Intents previously suspended services due to a vulnerability in the interaction between the Omni deposit and withdrawal infrastructure and NEAR Intents smart contracts. Preliminary investigations indicate that approximately $3.8 million in user funds were stolen in this incident, and the team has committed to fully compensating affected users.On-chain detective ZachXBT stated that the stolen funds were subsequently transferred to KuCoin and converted to Bitcoin across chains.

According to Drift Foundation monitoring, DFX claims and redemptions are now online. Users who have verified losses from the April 1 incident can receive 1 DFX for every 1 USDT lost. Each DFX corresponds to a claim on the Recovery Pool, which currently contains approximately 3.11 million USDT. The funding sources include a portion of the daily net income from the Velocity protocol, up to 127.5 million USDT from Tether, up to 20 million USDT from strategic partners, and assets recovered subsequently.DFX can be redeemed for USDT based on the formula "Recovery Pool balance ÷ DFX outstanding supply." The redeemed DFX will be destroyed, and the transaction is irreversible. The claims window will close on January 1, 2028, at 00:00 UTC, at which point any unclaimed DFX will be destroyed. Yesterday, the Drift Foundation announced the progress of fund recovery from the April 1 security incident, revealing that approximately 295 million dollars of user assets were stolen. The foundation has engaged Mandiant, zeroShadow, and SEAL 911 to conduct investigations and fund tracking, with Mandiant identifying the attacker as the North Korean threat group UNC6862.

User @neillee99 posted that the approximately 50 BTC held in Solv Protocol cannot be redeemed normally. The user stated that on July 8, 2026, they withdrew about 50 BTC from Binance, which was converted into SolvBTC and BTC+, aiming to earn about 3% annual yield by holding BTC+, without engaging in complex transactions.The user claimed that after the deposit, the minting and redemption functions of BTC+ suddenly paused. On July 13, a security incident occurred with BTC+, and they inquired in the official community on July 18 and July 20, but received no effective response. On July 22, Solv Protocol publicly disclosed the incident and stated that user assets were not harmed. On July 31, the project team announced the restoration of related functions, and staff informed that redemption could be initiated, but their address remained restricted, and the approximately 50 BTC corresponding assets could not be redeemed.The user stated that since July 31, they have continuously communicated through the official Discord, Telegram, and email, submitting materials such as proof of funds, transaction records, and wallet control. There have been about 60 emails exchanged between both parties, with about 50 sent by them. After contacting relevant personnel in September, they still did not receive an effective response. Their request is to lift the restrictions and restore normal redemption, while also stating that they initially came into contact with BTC+ through the BTC earnings-related page of Binance Web3 Wallet, and calling on Solv Protocol, Venus Protocol, and relevant investors and ecosystem parties to pay attention to the progress of the handling.

Ledger CTO Charles Guillemet stated that he disagrees with the view that "only about 30% of BTC faces quantum computing risks, while the remaining approximately 70% is secure due to public key hashing."Glassnode data shows that currently about 30.2% of BTC has exposed spending public keys on-chain, but Guillemet pointed out that this only reflects the static state on-chain; unexposed public keys may still exist in xpub, devices, PSBT, logs, or backups; and once a BTC transaction is initiated, the public key will be revealed before the transaction is confirmed.Guillemet cited research from Google Quantum AI stating that under currently non-existent high-speed quantum computer models, attacks on secp256k1 could be completed in about 9 minutes. Therefore, simply hiding public keys cannot solve the quantum risk, and Bitcoin will ultimately need to migrate to post-quantum cryptography.
