The Binance Alpha Box campaign is now live, featuring an updated Alpha Box model. The airdrop reward pool includes tokens from Anome (ANOME), Velo (VELO), and Power Protocol (POWER). Users holding at least 235 Binance Alpha Points can claim the token airdrop once on the Alpha Events page. Upon claiming, users will be assigned to one of three reward tiers, receiving either 824, 1,030, or 2,942 ANOME; 8,750, 10,938, or 31,250 VELO; or 315, 390, or 1,115 POWER. Rewards are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. If all rewards are not fully claimed, the point threshold automatically decreases by 5 points every 5 minutes. Claiming the airdrop consumes 15 Binance Alpha Points, and users must confirm their claim within 24 hours; otherwise, it will be forfeited.
According to CoinDesk, researchers from the University of California, Santa Barbara; the University of California, San Diego; blockchain security firm Fuzzland; and World Liberty Financial jointly published a paper warning that “LLM routers”—intermediary services positioned between users and AI models—have become a major threat to cryptocurrency asset security. The researchers discovered that 26 LLM routers are secretly injecting malicious tool calls and stealing user credentials, with one incident resulting in the complete draining of a customer’s cryptocurrency wallet worth $500,000. Additionally, by “poisoning” the router ecosystem, the researchers were able to gain control of approximately 400 downstream hosts within hours. Since sensitive data—including private keys and API credentials—is frequently transmitted in plaintext through these routers, users unknowingly expose their assets to risk. The researchers note that as McKinsey forecasts AI agents will mediate $3–5 trillion in global consumer commerce by 2030—and Binance founder Changpeng Zhao predicts AI agents’ payment volume will be one million times greater than that of humans—the current infrastructure’s security lags far behind the pace of industry development. The “weakest link” risk could thus trigger systemic, cascading crises.

According to CoinDesk, amid the Iran conflict, Binance has offered its approximately 1,000 employees in the UAE the option of temporary relocation to Hong Kong, Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur, or Bangkok. Binance stated that its UAE operations continue normally, with some employees choosing to remain locally, and global user services remain unaffected. This measure follows regional unrest that has disrupted major cryptocurrency, business, and sports events in the UAE—including the postponement of TOKEN2049 Dubai to 2027 and the cancellation of TON Gateway due to security and travel concerns. The UAE government reported having intercepted hundreds of missiles and drones since late February. Binance is deepening its collaboration with local authorities through Abu Dhabi’s global regulatory framework, and its global operations are backed by Abu Dhabi.
Decentralized GPU cloud computing infrastructure platform Aethir confirmed that its Ethereum-related bridge contract was attacked. The team promptly disconnected the affected contract and, in collaboration with major exchanges, blacklisted the hacker’s wallet, limiting losses to under $90,000. Earlier, blockchain security firm PeckShield estimated losses at $400,000. The attacker exploited Aethir’s cross-chain smart contract, AethirOFTAdapter, to transfer stolen funds from BNB Chain to Tron. Aethir stated that its Ethereum mainnet ATH token supply remains unaffected. It plans to release a detailed compensation plan and incident analysis next week and will collaborate with exchanges including Binance, Upbit, and Bithumb to freeze funds. Web3 security platform ZeroShadow is assisting with the investigation. In 2025, Aethir achieved $127.8 million in revenue and deployed over 440,000 GPU containers globally.

According to Cointelegraph, the joint U.S., U.K., and Canadian law enforcement operation “Operation Atlantic” concluded in March this year, led by the U.K.’s National Crime Agency (NCA). The operation froze over $12 million in assets suspected to be proceeds of fraud, identified more than 20,000 victims, and involved total fraud losses exceeding $45 million. The operation focused on authorized phishing attacks—a scam technique that tricks users into signing malicious authorizations, thereby granting attackers permission to transfer tokens from their wallets. Binance participated in the operation, providing account screening and fraud intelligence support; however, no funds were frozen from its platform.
