INTEL: All seven Magnificent Seven stocks ask to stay off the planned OKX-ICE tokenized shares venue
ReadyCrypto retweeted
My advice for the last 2 months of 2026: Lock the f*ck in. Be delusionally optimistic. Relentlessly follow up. Live like you're about to die. Make stuff happen. Focus on the upside instead of the risk. Assume you can do anything. Work in a flow state. Be direct with people. Pursue your goal with all you've got. Act high energy. Spend less time on social media. Make some money. Make some long-term investments. Just don't sit there waiting for sh*t to happen.

Poke got a tattoo. @instinct got a $10 billion valuation.
Both are AI assistants you text instead of opening an app, and I use both.
Poke is good. It’s fun to talk to and it found the promo junk in my inbox in no time. But the free plan only goes so far. It checks your inbox once a day, it couldn’t click the unsubscribe buttons for me, and a few messages in it was already nudging me towards Pro at $19 a month.
Instinct gives me everything for free and honestly does great work. No paywall, no upsell.
Poke sold to Cognition for low nine figures. Instinct is invite only, spent $0 on marketing according to its founder, and is now valued at $10 billion (still discussions on another raise for a $30b valuation)
The funny thing is Poke had the better growth trick early on. In beta an AI bouncer made you haggle for your price, and people shared their deals. That had an edge and I think it’s worth bringing back, as a game this time, not a price.
Curious what @marvinvonhagen and the @interaction team make of it. @noahrshinn too.
#5 in my weekly series on how AI companies grow. Full teardown in the comments!

BINANCE REPORTEDLY FOUGHT BACK AGAINST HACKERS IN REAL TIME, RECOVERING $823 MILLION IN USDC
According to an on-chain analysis, Binance’s wallet key remained functional even after attackers used a malicious EIP-7702 authorization to take control of the wallet.
Binance reportedly used its signing key to execute transactions through the compromised wallet, recovering $823 million in USDC.
The attackers had allegedly obtained 50 valid authorizations signed by the wallet key, with one successfully activating malicious code that drained 65 assets.
Even after Tether and Circle blacklisted the attacker’s address, the draining reportedly continued, including a $200 million USDT deposit swept just 100 seconds after arriving.

New flavor of Google phishing that abuses Google's own infrastructure to send you this email. If you click the goo.gl link you end up at a phishing login page.

The Binance hacker is depositing stolen $USDT on Aave and borrowing $ETH against it.
He’s never paying it back. Doesn’t need to.
USDT can be frozen by Tether. ETH can’t.

Coinbase has not had a data breach. Amplitude, an analytics vendor, experienced a security incident which impacted a small subset of Coinbase customer contact data, among other Amplitude customers. We’ve found no evidence of unauthorized access to Coinbase systems, and customer funds were not impacted. We are notifying impacted customers and regulatory agencies in accordance with our legal obligations.

you need to listen to this
it’s a voice model that can run locally on a macbook
Calling all AI safety researchers.
We’re inviting a small group to explore Dessa, our model trained on speech alone, and help us understand what it can and can’t do.
We’d love to hear from you: block.xyz/dessa

these AI agent attacks are pretty revealing of a few things:
- open models aren't the bad actors here its the opposite - they're being used to defend. this was the case for Hugging F and its the same this week.
- we can no longer rely on humans to defend us, we must use AI to defend against AI. this removes the human cognitive barrier (teaching, training) and replaces it with an instantaneous self-improving AI. this is what happened to maths 2 weeks ago btw.
- these attacks, while uncomfortable, will put us in a better position 1 year from now when our human-coded systems are more battle-tested. lets path the holes and move on.
Holy shit - unauthorized AI agents have gained access to people’s bank accounts and are performing actions (presumably money-related) that the human account owner is either unaware of or did not approve.
this is cyber security armageddon, exactly the type of catastrophic incident dario and sam warned of happening this year.
in the last 48 hours we’ve seen more industry level threats than you’d expect in years.

Lots of Security incidents today, here's some practical tips for those who just wanna protect yourself:
1) UPDATE EVERYTHING - main targets are:
a) Browsers - Chrome, Safari, Firefox
b) OS: : Settings -> General -> software update; Linux: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade; Windows: I think there's a button. Do this for any remote home servers & Openclaw/hermes boxes
c) Phones: Update it all
d) Desktop apps (Slack, Cursor, Discord, etc)
2) Limit web browsing this week: Stay within walled gardens (twitter, youtube, etc); don't click random links this week. Just wait until the patches go through. Do step 1 again after a week.
3) Avoid untrusted Wifi networks until your devices are updated
4) Stay vigilant about phishing emails offering "certificate fixes" or fraud updates
5) Have an iPhone 11-16? TURN BLUETOOTH OFF for the time being until apple patches come through.
6) Code/Dev: UPDATE ALL YOUR REPOS - @charliermarsh has already updated uv 0.13.4 which reacts to the eMudra incident for uv (Python), Typesript according to Claude has equivelant. Tell your agents to go and update all your active repos to update package manager across uv, npm, bun, cargo, etc etc
What advice did I miss?

cellebrite can now unlock your iphone remotely from 8 meters away, no physical access needed
iPhone 11 through 16. even with stolen device protection turned on
remember when zachxbt said use a dedicated iphone instead of a hardware wallet because it's safer?
someone with this device just needs to be within 26 feet of you and your phone is open
at a conference. at a coffee shop. in an airport. sitting next to you on a bus
they don't need to touch your phone. they don't even need to be close enough for you to notice them
and this is a tool being sold to law enforcement and forensic labs. right now. commercially available
if it's available to governments it's eventually available to everyone else
your iphone was never a vault. it was always just a phone with a better lock. and now even that lock can be picked from across the room

Introducing Singularity xMESH 0.8B, the first ever open-weight decision model built for x402.
Fine-tuned to pick the right x402 endpoint for any task, from a single call to a complete multi-step flow.
On complete x402 flows, xMesh gets 80% exactly right where Jev gets just 11.25%, that too in just 0.31 seconds.
That's 7x better than Jev.

"[...] During interrogation, the suspect admitted he'd been following specific instructions received via phone call, under threat of his family being harmed.
The FBI traced the call.
The caller was not human."
We discovered a sophisticated recording device that was hidden inside one of our offices. We used our models to understand the device and where it had come from, identifying that a specific employee had planted it a few days earlier. We referred the matter to the FBI, and we’re grateful to the agents and prosecutors who moved quickly to make an arrest. The FBI’s investigation is ongoing and we will continue to support their work.
At this time, we have no indications of this individual inappropriately accessing or exfiltrating model weights, source code, or customer data. The employee was terminated.
We take protecting our technology, data, and people seriously, and as a matter of national importance. Our security program is designed to protect against a wide range of threat actors, from insider risks to cybercriminals to nation states, and this case is an example of how AI can help address these sophisticated security threats.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The DOJ and multiple news outlets report that an OpenAI employee planted the recording device and was arrested by the FBI. There are no reports of any phone call from a non-human or threats to the employee's family. justice.gov/usao-ndca/pr/s… reuters.com/world/us/fbi-a… theverge.com/ai-artificial-…

In the future, it will seem trivial that we had entire roles dedicated to generating dashboards, crunching data manually, and updating excel sheets
The kid being born in 2040 will look back at the tasks that humans are still doing in 2026 in complete disgust
To them, many of the jobs that exist today will look no different than how we view slavery in the 1800s or smoking cigarettes during the mid 1900s
They won’t believe that humans actually used to spend their weeks in cubicles pushing through jobs that takes agents a few minutes to complete
