Ledger users suspected victims of large-scale crypto theft attack; on-chain analysts report losses exceeding $86 million

According to PeckShield monitoring, the attacker targeting the 79thVault hot wallet (used for 79AU operations) has returned 15,000 BNB tokens to the project team’s designated wallet address, valued at approximately $11 million. Separately, the attacker had previously deposited 30 BNB into KuCoin. The disposition of the remaining funds remains unclear. Earlier, the 79thVault on BNB Chain suffered an estimated $12.5 million loss, likely due to a private key leak. The team’s operational hot wallet typically only handles small transfers to the reward pool. However, recently, this address transferred 2.01 million 79AU tokens from trading pairs to external addresses in seven separate transactions, with amounts of 10,000, 100,000, 100,000, 300,000, 500,000, 500,000, and 500,000 units respectively.

Beating AI News: Former Doubao desktop product manager Zhong Erxin has open-sourced iPhone Use, allowing Codex to directly operate real iPhones. Users only need to issue tasks in natural language, and Codex can open apps, read pages, tap, swipe, input Chinese, and search and organize lists. The entire operation process is viewable in real time in Codex’s sidebar. The project is built on Appium’s WebDriverAgent (WDA), a mobile automation tool based on Apple’s XCTest framework. Developers first install WDA on the iPhone via Xcode, then send Codex’s instructions to the device via the Mac-based MCP service, with WDA executing actions like taps and inputs. No jailbreaking is required, nor is a separate Appium Server deployment needed. To cut down on AI overhead from repeatedly viewing screenshots, iPhone Use prioritizes reading system-provided UI control data to directly identify button text, positions, and statuses. For unrecognizable or occluded controls, it falls back to screenshots for the model to determine tap coordinates. It also supports batch execution of continuous operations to reduce model call counts. The sidebar’s real-time feed is pulled via WDA’s independent screen stream, eliminating the need for repeated screenshots. Currently, iPhone Use’s official tutorial still requires a USB connection to the phone; first-time use requires Xcode to sign and install WDA. Apple supports wireless debugging, and WDA is network-accessible, but the project has not yet released a complete wireless connection configuration solution.

Beating AI Insight Flash News: Startup TypeSafe AI, developer of the AI model Jev, has completed approximately $870 million in funding, led by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), with participation from Sequoia Capital and multiple angel investors, valuing the company at $7.5 billion. Jev quickly gained popularity after its launch several weeks ago. TypeSafe reports that its user base surpassed 1 million within days, and the model is now used by roughly one-third of Fortune 500 companies. Unlike traditional large language models (LLMs), Jev is not designed for chatting, email writing, or code generation. Instead, it integrates directly into software to execute decision-making tasks, aiming to deliver AI automation at lower costs and higher speeds. According to the company, it processes trillions of tokens daily. TypeSafe was founded by researchers from OpenAI, Meta, and Google, and currently has a team of just over 20 people. The company stated that the new funding will be used to expand product deployment, hire staff, and increase computing power resources. Its CEO said the company has achieved profitability after accounting for all expenses, though revenue figures were not disclosed.

Market analysis notes that since October 2022, the S&P 500 index has risen 117% cumulatively, driving the total market capitalization of U.S. stocks to increase by nearly $40 trillion, with the rally mainly fueled by AI-related stocks. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index has underperformed its market-cap weighted counterpart by 52 percentage points, hitting the widest gap in history—underscoring this bull market’s reliance on a small number of large tech stocks. Nvidia’s share price has surged more than 1900% cumulatively over the same period, while U.S. Treasury yields have recently risen to 5.34%, further stoking market concerns about valuation pressures. Investors are closely monitoring whether corporate earnings growth can sustain this bull market.
