According to a research report released by cybersecurity firm Expel, the company is tracking an advanced persistent threat (APT) group dubbed “HexagonalRodent,” which is highly assessed to be a North Korean (DPRK) state-sponsored actor. This group primarily targets Web3 developers and specializes in stealing high-value digital assets—including cryptocurrencies and NFTs. In the first quarter of 2026 alone, the group compromised 2,726 developer devices and stole access credentials for 26,584 cryptocurrency wallets, with the total value of stolen assets reaching as high as $12 million. The group primarily carries out its attacks via fake job postings—publishing lucrative positions on LinkedIn and Web3 recruitment platforms to lure job seekers into completing “skills assessments” embedded with malicious code. These assessments exploit VSCode’s tasks.json functionality to automatically execute malware when victims open the project folder. The malware used includes BeaverTail, OtterCookie, and InvisibleFerret, all of which possess capabilities such as password theft, remote control, and reverse shell execution. Notably, the group extensively leverages generative AI tools—including ChatGPT and Cursor—to develop malware, build counterfeit corporate websites, and generate AI-forged executive teams. It even registered a shell company in Mexico to enhance the credibility of its operations. Additionally, the group recently carried out its first-ever supply-chain attack, successfully infiltrating a VSCode extension.
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.
