Odaily reports: In his keynote speech at TOKEN2049 Singapore, Arthur Hayes stated that high-FDV, low-float tokens no longer rise after listing on Binance, and criticized VC presales for abusing tokenomics and leaving retail investors to bear the bag. He said this model has dominated the industry for over a decade, but the market is no longer buying into it. Flop Labs has proposed a "100% fair launch" scheme with no presale and no VC allocation, instead having testnet participants earn FLOP through actual work and receive airdrops. The genesis airdrop accounts for approximately 24.3% of the Year 10 supply, about 4.4 billion tokens, with a total supply of 18.1 billion; the launch is planned for late October or early November 2026 and will last about 90 days, with mainnet genesis set for Q1 2027. Flop Labs is funded by Hayes personally; Hayes stated that FLOP is not yet trading and that any early sales are scams.

on October 22, Binance Square launched the second installment of its US stock earnings season content, focusing on the Q3 earnings reports of Tesla (TSLA) and Meta (META). Both companies will release their results after the US market close on October 21 (ET), with market attention centered on whether AI investments can translate into actual revenue, profit, and cash flow.For Tesla, despite Q3 deliveries reaching 486,532 vehicles, beating analyst consensus, automotive business profitability remains a key focus — particularly automotive gross margin excluding regulatory credit revenue. In addition, energy storage business performance, progress in Full Self-Driving (FSD), Robotaxi, and Optimus robot commercialization, as well as capital expenditures and free cash flow, will also influence market judgments on its growth outlook.For Meta, the market will focus on advertising business growth and AI investment returns. Investors should watch revenue, ad impressions, and average price changes to assess whether AI recommendation systems and advertising tools can improve monetization efficiency. Meanwhile, Meta expects capital expenditures to reach $130 billion to $145 billion in 2026. Whether these expenditures can drive corresponding profit and cash flow growth, along with full-year expenses and forward guidance, are all key points of this earnings report.It is understood that Binance Square will continue to follow both companies' earnings performance through earnings previews, post-earnings analysis, and live streams with analysts in both Chinese and English. Users can follow Binance Square's earnings-related topics and participate in discussions via #EarningsSeason to share their views on earnings performance and market trends.
Nina Rong (@nina_rong), Head of Growth at BNB Chain, posted that BNB Chain's technology stack does not use PHP and reminded users to remain vigilant. Previously, the National Security Agency's cybersecurity division NSA Cyber (@NSACyber) issued an advisory stating that all organizations using PHP to build systems should prepare for updates aimed at fixing two critical vulnerabilities. PHP is widely used in web applications, and such vulnerabilities can typically provide direct access to the server file system.
According to Cointelegraph, the PHP Foundation admitted that a critical security vulnerability discovered as early as 2024 has yet to be patched due to flawed decision-making processes and understaffing within the security team, calling the delay a structural failure. The vulnerability could allow unauthenticated attackers to remotely execute code on affected servers. On August 11, security firm Calif and OpenAI independently reported the same issue, with Calif also demonstrating unconditional remote code execution, prompting the matter to be elevated to the highest security priority. PHP released emergency patches for two related critical vulnerabilities on Wednesday. Around the time of the patch release, government websites or services in the Netherlands, Finland, France, Germany, and Australia were temporarily taken offline, with the Netherlands shutting down its digital identity service. The Wikimedia Foundation also took some supporting services offline, causing disruptions to certain Wikipedia features. Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi called on website operators to install the patches as soon as possible. In the crypto sector, monitoring by SlowMist's MistEye service found that out of 1,488 evaluated domains, 793 showed direct PHP fingerprints. Cardano governance organization Intersect temporarily took its member portal offline. Both Coinbase and BitGo stated that their platforms were unaffected. Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao advised users to exercise extreme caution when visiting websites over the next few days. PHP security team
Odaily reports: The PHP Foundation has stated that due to hesitant decision-making and insufficient resources, remediation work for a critical security vulnerability first discovered in 2024 stalled and restarted multiple times, and it characterized the delay as a "structural failure." PHP is a programming language widely used for websites and web applications.PHP has released emergency patches for two related critical vulnerabilities. Unauthenticated attackers could exploit the flaws to execute code on affected servers without logging in. Some government websites or online services in the Netherlands, Finland, France, Germany, and Australia were temporarily taken offline to prepare for patch installation.Security firm Calif and OpenAI separately reported the same underlying issue on August 11, and Calif also demonstrated unconditional remote code execution. Blockchain security firm SlowMist investigated PHP usage in the crypto industry and found direct PHP fingerprints on 793 of the 1,488 domains it assessed.Intersect has temporarily closed its Members Area, Coinbase said it has not found any affected PHP instances, and digital asset infrastructure company BitGo said its platform was not affected. Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao reminded users to exercise heightened caution when visiting websites recently, and OpenAI has released a Codex skill for checking for vulnerable PHP versions.
