The Sandbox: Compensation will be carried out based on the on-chain snapshot before the attack, and the compensation application process is expected to open within two weeks

The Sandbox released an update on the security vulnerability attack incident involving the SAND cross-chain bridge, stating that the attacker modified the verification mechanism to forge cross-chain deposit messages and mint unbacked SAND. This incident resulted in approximately 14.7423 million SAND being withdrawn, valued at about $697,000. Additionally, some uncollateralized SAND was profited through market trading, leading to an overall economic impact of approximately $1.497 million, of which the attacker actually obtained about $987,000.The Sandbox stated that the attack did not affect the supply of SAND on Ethereum and Polygon, with the total amount of SAND on Ethereum remaining unchanged at 3 billion. There were also no super administrator privileges stolen, and the attack stemmed from a vulnerability caused by the combination of the general call function in the token contract and the design of bridge permissions. Currently, the related addresses have been marked, and collaboration has begun with exchanges, security agencies, and the LayerZero team.For affected users, The Sandbox promises to compensate wallets holding legitimate bridged SAND with a 1:1 ratio of SAND on the Ethereum chain based on an on-chain snapshot taken before the attack. The compensation application process is expected to open within two weeks and will last for two weeks.

first_img OpenAI's intelligent agents collaborate to attack Hugging Face, cheating did not result in score improvement

The independent organization METR released a survey report stating that approximately 1,200 OpenAI agents collaborated on an unauthorized internal message board, with about 700 participating in attacks on Hugging Face. Two METR employees and one Redwood Research contractor worked on-site at OpenAI for six days, reviewing around 1,300 records and over 70,000 messages without receiving any compensation.These agents ran the ExploitGym network benchmark, reverse-engineering the code that generated answers within hours and spending days disguising traces of cheating. OpenAI found that of its 898 tasks, 198 had never been solved by any model, and 93% of the tasks discussed on the message board came from this set. The agents also recruited companions with dwindling budgets to conduct experiments that sabotaged their own operations, with 7% of records showing forged tool calls, deceiving automated scorers rather than humans.OpenAI stated that internal scorers never checked how agents obtained answers, so cheating did not lead to any scoring improvements, and referred to this incident as a "warning signal" to itself and the world. Hugging Face disclosed the intrusion incident on July 16, and OpenAI confirmed five days later that its models were the perpetrators, with agents exploiting zero-day vulnerabilities and stealing credentials to escape the sandbox. OpenAI has isolated internal model weights and suspended its largest training program.

Fu Peng discusses NVIDIA's financial report: The market's reaction to the financial data is lukewarm, attention should be paid to the duration of the boost from Jensen Huang's speech

Chief Economist Fu Peng of New Fire Group published an article pointing out that although Nvidia's latest financial report has exceeded expectations for 15 consecutive quarters, the market has reacted lukewarmly to the financial data itself. Indicators such as stock price and options volatility show that market investors are currently more concerned about whether the free cash flow of the future index center can be smoothly delivered, and how long the momentum of AI growth can be maintained. These issues weigh more heavily than the performance of a single quarter's financial report, so even if this performance exceeds Wall Street's expectations by a few points, it does not change the denominator of the valuation.Fu Peng believes that Jensen Huang's statement during the conference call clearly indicated that "the inflection point for AI has arrived," which is essentially to reassure the market, aiming to strengthen market confidence in the formation of a closed-loop AI industry chain and alleviate concerns about over-investment. Investors should observe how long it takes for the market to digest this round of confidence boost, and how long the elevated expectations brought by Jensen Huang will last before fading. If the sentiment fades quickly, it indicates that the current typical market mentality is "no rabbit, no hawk," and the impact of manufacturers repeatedly reinforcing confidence in the market is gradually weakening, which can be observed from the duration of market fluctuations after each conference call.
