SpaceXAI’s total GPU count will reach 1 million units next week, with Musk claiming it will lead the AI race in half a year.

Bitget CEO Gracy Chen stated in a post that the crypto exchange is collaborating with independent third-party experts Mandiant and SlowMist to launch a full investigation into the recent platform security incident. The company will continue to share the latest updates via official channels, stressing that protecting users is Bitget’s top priority at present. User balances remain intact, and the Bitget User Protection Fund will cover losses stemming from this platform-level event. Bitget Wallet, a self-custody wallet, operates on infrastructure fully separate and independent from Bitget Exchange, so it has not been impacted by the incident. As of now, deposit, trading, and reward functions on Bitget Exchange are still running normally. The withdrawal function remains suspended amid additional security checks and will be reopened as soon as the platform confirms it can safely resume operations.

Beating AI News Flash: Anthropic Resumes Billing for Three Categories of "Zero-Output Safety Rejections" Claude will now charge at its standard model rate even when it rejects requests before generating any output, if the rejection stems from biosecurity, frontier large language model (LLM) development, or "reasoning extraction"—a category referring specifically to attempts to elicit Claude’s internal reasoning processes. On June 2 this year, Anthropic had scrapped all charges for zero-output rejections, but is now reinstating billing exclusively for these three categories. The change only applies to these cases: other requests (such as those for cyberattacks or general harmful content) that get rejected before output remain free of charge. If Claude has already generated partial output before being blocked, it will always be billed normally. Anthropic noted that coordinated attacks targeting its system have emerged in recent weeks, so billing is being deployed as an additional defense measure. Official tests found that 99.7% of Claude Code, Claude.ai, and Cowork accounts did not encounter these three billing-triggering rejections, and the false positive rate for related safety classifiers is below 0.1%. However, false positive reports have already appeared on GitHub. One Claude Code user documented 23 false "reasoning extraction" judgments, including for routine tasks like podcast scripts and budget spreadsheets, with 7 cases terminating the current task. Another user reported that general software development tasks and Claude Code’s built-in workflow instructions also triggered similar rejections.

Saturn Foundation, an on-chain digital credit protocol, announced that the STRN Token Generation Event (TGE) is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2026, with the second season of its program reserving up to 5% of the total token supply for distribution. If the TGE occurs before December 8, 2026, the second season will conclude shortly prior to the TGE, at which point a snapshot will be taken. Should the second season end early, its TGE allocation will be reduced proportionally based on the program’s actual duration; unallocated amounts will be returned to the Saturn ecosystem allocation pool for future seasons. For example, if the program completes 75% of its original cycle, only 75% of the reserved allocation will be distributed. The third season will launch immediately after the second season’s snapshot is finalized; eligible positions will continue to accrue second season points until the snapshot is taken, and users are not required to take any action at this time. Specific details regarding the token economic model, distribution, and claim arrangements will be disclosed in subsequent announcements.

BitMEX has updated its restricted jurisdiction policies, announcing that the platform ceased operations on September 23. To facilitate eligible customers in withdrawing funds, BitMEX has lifted regional restrictions for the U.S., Canada, Hong Kong (China), Bermuda, Seychelles, and Myanmar. However, these adjustments only apply to completing KYC and withdrawal requests, and do not signify a resumption of trading services. Customers who previously could not access their accounts due to regional restrictions can now log in directly, complete KYC, and submit withdrawal applications. Restrictions for sanctioned regions including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and Crimea remain in effect, and all related withdrawals are subject to compliance monitoring. Iranian citizens residing outside Iran who are not on sanctions lists of OFAC, the United Nations, or the European Union may submit proof of overseas residence to apply for withdrawals; Russian citizens residing in the EU or Switzerland may also apply for fund withdrawals by providing address proofs issued within the past three months.

Solana-based token launch platform StonkFun officially announced that 18% of STONK’s total supply has been burned. On September 24, the platform recorded $1,095,334 in revenue, with $672,362 allocated to buybacks, leading to the burning of 2.05 million STONK tokens.

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost published a note stating that Bitcoin has recently entered an upward phase distinct from its previous rallies. Since hitting its July high, BTC has rallied roughly 45%, breaking through key structural levels and closing above $82,000 for several consecutive days. Darkfost noted that BTC’s accumulation trend has persisted during this rally, a pattern particularly evident in BTC’s capital flows on exchanges. Binance currently holds around 30% of BTC available on all exchanges accessible to all investor types, and net BTC outflows have dominated recently—averaging roughly 2,000 BTC per day over the past week. Meanwhile, Binance recently recorded its largest single-day BTC net outflow since 2023, exceeding 13,800 BTC in a day, marking a new three-year high. Over the past four days, Binance’s BTC reserves dropped from 705,000 BTC to 685,000 BTC, a reduction of about 20,000 BTC. Darkfost explained that sustained BTC outflows from exchanges signal some investors are choosing to hold BTC themselves, a behavior typically linked to long-term holding. From a market mechanism perspective, declining exchange BTC balances also reduce potential selling pressure. Darkfost further pointed out that such sudden large-scale outflows may indicate investors who previously expected Bitcoin to keep falling as it did during past bear markets are now experiencing FOMO and re-entering after the price rally. As Bitcoin continues to rise, similar large-scale capital flows may occur again.
