MoonPay, a cryptocurrency payment network, announced that its Iron platform has officially launched virtual account services in New York State, enabling fintech companies, crypto platforms, neobanks, and financial institutions to integrate compliant fiat-to-stablecoin infrastructure. This launch follows MoonPay’s 2025 acquisition of Iron, an enterprise-grade stablecoin infrastructure platform. Users can receive funds via ACH, wire transfer, SWIFT, and other channels, with automatic conversion into stablecoins settled directly into non-custodial wallets. In the same year, MoonPay obtained New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) licenses—including a BitLicense, a money transmitter license, and a limited-purpose trust charter.
Aave released the latest update on the rsETH security incident on the X platform, announcing that it has paused rsETH reserve-related operations on the Ethereum mainnet as well as networks including Arbitrum, Base, Mantle, and Linea. This measure is intended to prevent excess aETHrsETH from being withdrawn, thereby pushing positions close to the 95% liquidation threshold. This action aims to preserve as much capital as possible and reduce systemic risk while the asset recovery plan is underway. Aave stated that further progress and resolution plans will be continuously disclosed to the community.

Iran's Judiciary Chief, Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei, stated on social media that the display of strength by Iran's armed forces in the Strait of Hormuz is "proud." He mentioned that on the 22nd, another three vessels violating regulations were dealt with according to law in this strategic waterway. Ejei stated, "The Americans dare not approach the Strait of Hormuz," and added, "They have already seen the fate of the so-called ultra-advanced destroyers USS Michael Murphy and USS Peterson." He further noted that the "swarm" fleet of speedboats and drones of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is being deployed around the caves near Forur Island, maintaining vigilance against US naval vessels and attempting to strike them through "saturation" suppression tactics.

the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) has released a report stating that crypto exchanges are increasingly offering banking-like services, such as lending and yield-bearing products (Earn), but lack the regulatory oversight and deposit protection found in traditional financial systems, posing systemic risks.The report states that these high-yield products are essentially more akin to "unsecured loans." User assets are often used by platforms for high-risk operations such as lending, trading, or market making, while users only hold a claim against the platform. If the platform encounters problems, users are directly exposed to solvency risks.The BIS also noted that major crypto platforms have evolved from simple exchanges into "multi-functional intermediaries," integrating the functions of banks, brokerages, and exchanges, but with insufficient transparency and risk isolation mechanisms. The collapses of Celsius Network and FTX are typical examples of this structural risk. Additionally, the report mentions the crypto market flash crash in October 2025, which triggered approximately $19 billion in forced liquidations, highlighting the risk of cascading effects under high leverage and opaque structures.

Lido has released an update regarding the Kelp security incident, stating that its Earn-series vaults are working with the management team to address the issue, focusing on two key risk areas: rsETH exposure and tightening liquidity in lending markets. Lido emphasizes that its core staking protocol remains unaffected, and both stETH and wstETH remain secure and stable. Currently, only the EarnETH vault holds approximately 9% of its TVL in rsETH exposure; related deposits and withdrawals have been suspended by the management team pending resolution. Of the ~$70 million in ETH stolen in the earlier attack, roughly $70 million has already been recovered; asset recovery and loss allocation efforts are ongoing. To mitigate liquidity pressure, the management team has reduced leverage and optimized position structures, significantly decreasing wETH debt exposure. Should losses ultimately materialize, EarnETH will activate its $3 million “first-loss protection mechanism,” funded by the DAO. Other vaults remain unaffected: DVV and EarnUSD are operating normally. The GGV sub-vault is currently experiencing negative yields due to a combination of recursive staking strategies and rising borrowing rates, but active adjustments are underway. Users’ previously submitted withdrawal requests will be processed at pre-incident valuations.
Coinbase stated it is optimizing the rule creation process in its anti-fraud system by integrating machine learning models with a rule engine to achieve more efficient risk management. It also proposed a dual-track strategy where "models are responsible for long-term defense, and rules are responsible for rapid response," and built a unified framework that creates a feedback loop between the two: rules are used to capture new types of fraudulent behavior and then inversely train the model, thereby continuously enhancing overall defense capabilities.In terms of specific optimizations, Coinbase has transformed the previously manual rule creation process into a data-driven and automatically recommended one by restructuring data architecture, automating Schema evolution, and introducing Notebook-based analysis tools, significantly improving efficiency. Among these improvements, the performance of rule backtesting has increased by more than 10 times, and the overall response time has been shortened from days to hours. Additionally, the new system recommends parameters through machine learning, which helps reduce false positive rates, minimizing the impact on legitimate users while combating fraud.Coinbase stated that its next steps will be to advance event-driven automatic rule generation and explore the ability to "convert" efficient rules into model features with a single click, further moving towards an automated risk management system.
, Anthropic and OpenAI have experienced security incidents in succession, drawing market attention to the security of AI models themselves. Currently, Anthropic is investigating a possible case of unauthorized user access to its Claude Mythos model. Almost simultaneously, OpenAI was also reported to have accidentally opened access to several unreleased models within its Codex application.Analysts believe that such incidents highlight that even AI model providers focused on cybersecurity capabilities still face significant security challenges. While AI is increasingly used for cyber defense, platform security and access control are becoming critical risk points.Industry insiders point out that these vulnerability incidents have intensified scrutiny over the security governance capabilities of AI companies, and also reflect that the security systems of current AI technology still need improvement amid rapid development.

discussions regarding the potential threat of quantum computing to Bitcoin's security have been reignited. Analyst James Check points out that while quantum computing could theoretically crack elliptic curve signatures, its market impact may be overestimated.Data shows that approximately 1.7 million BTC (about $145 billion) are stored in early "Satoshi-era" addresses. If private keys were compromised, this could create potential selling pressure. However, from a market liquidity perspective, this scale is not insurmountable: in a bull market, long-term holders typically sell between 10,000 and 30,000 BTC daily. This means the aforementioned volume is equivalent to 2 to 3 months of routine profit-taking.Additionally, the average monthly exchange inflow is about 850,000 BTC, and the notional trading volume in the derivatives market can cover this amount within just a few days. Historical data shows that during the most recent bear market, over 2.3 million BTC changed hands in a single quarter, far exceeding the scale of the potential "quantum risk," yet it did not trigger a systemic collapse.Analysis suggests that even with a concentrated release, it is more likely to cause periodic volatility rather than a structural shock. Furthermore, entities capable of acquiring such assets are more inclined to adopt strategies like phased selling and hedging to mitigate market impact.Overall, the core issue of the "quantum threat" may not be the selling pressure itself, but rather the governance-level response—such as whether to restrict the movement of assets from affected addresses through a protocol upgrade.

Odaily Seer Channel monitoring indicates that Polymarket has launched a new market: "Will SpaceX acquire Cursor," with the current probability of "Yes" at 74%.The event contract rules are as follows: If, before 11:59 PM Eastern Time on December 31, 2026, it is officially announced that Cursor will be acquired by SpaceX or will merge with it, the market will resolve to "Yes"; otherwise, the market will resolve to "No." Mergers or acquisitions involving Cursor or its parent company (where applicable) with SpaceX or its parent company, Space Exploration Technologies Corp., are eligible. The outcome will be "Yes" as long as Cursor or SpaceX issues an announcement within the market's timeframe, regardless of whether the announced acquisition/merger actually occurs. Announcements of partial sales may also qualify as long as the acquiring company gains a controlling interest in the other company. "Controlling interest" refers to a change in ownership sufficient to control the company's strategic decisions (typically meaning over 50% equity, or equivalent control through voting rights and governance). Transactions or investments that do not result in a transfer of controlling interest are not eligible. The primary source for resolving this market will be official information from Cursor and SpaceX; however, a consensus of credible reports may also be used.Odaily Seer Channel continues to monitor prediction markets, observing changes before they are priced.
According to Cointelegraph, Flying Tulip—a decentralized finance platform founded by Andre Cronje—has implemented a withdrawal circuit breaker mechanism. This mechanism delays or queues withdrawals during abnormal capital outflows, thereby limiting potential losses and buying time for the team to investigate. The mechanism operates differently across products: for the Perpetual PUT product, withdrawals may be reverted, requiring users to retry later; for ftUSD, withdrawals are queued and can be claimed after a delay. Flying Tulip states that this mechanism follows a “fail-open” design—meaning transactions continue to execute even if the safety mechanism fails.
Odaily Pyth Network has announced a major strategic transformation: a comprehensive infrastructure upgrade and a shift in its economic model from token incentives to revenue-driven. According to two core proposals (OP-PIP-100, OP-PIP-103), Pythnet will be gradually shut down by 2026, with focus shifting to the next-generation underlying network Lazer. The OIS staking reward mechanism will be terminated (parameter Y set to 0), while the security slashing mechanism will be retained.Meanwhile, the PYTH Reserve has repurchased approximately 12 million PYTH using protocol revenue. Commercial products (Pyth Pro, Data Markets) have become the core growth drivers, with leading prediction markets such as Polymarket and Kalshi already integrated. Institutional adoption continues to rise.
