MANTRA DAO Initiates Survey Vote to Solicit Feedback on Team Token Burn Execution

Beating AI Insight News: The DeepSeek open-source plugin project dsh-our-free-model, which has around 32,000 stars on GitHub, has suddenly received a 20,000-character "lawyer's letter". The poster claimed to be acting on behalf of the rights holders of WorkBuddy and CodeBuddy, accusing the project of reverse-engineering Tencent’s official client, bypassing interface verification, and using free credits to access AI models. The letter demanded the developer cease relevant activities within 3 days and delete the entire repository within 7 days, warning of potential litigation and regulatory reports if not complied with. However, the project had already removed Tencent-related channels at 10:29 AM that day. At 4:21 PM, another contributor submitted a pull request (PR) attempting to bypass Tencent’s client verification by modifying request content to restore model access. Approximately 39 minutes later, the "lawyer's letter" was posted. The contributor subsequently voluntarily withdrew the PR, and the code was not merged. What’s particularly odd is that the letter lacks key details: no law firm name, handling lawyer, authorized rights holder, contact information, or official seal. The account that posted the letter was only registered on October 16. The letter also claimed the developer had submitted code to restore access just 3 minutes after removing Tencent-related channels, but public GitHub records show the PR was actually submitted nearly 6 hours later. No official confirmation from Tencent regarding the letter has been released. Numerous developers in the community have questioned its authenticity, suspecting someone is using the lawyer’s letter to exert pressure.

According to TradingBeats monitoring, in the past two hours, a whale’s short positions in both BTC and ETH were partially liquidated. The forced covering amounted to 55.19 BTC and 153.19 ETH respectively, each accounting for 20% of their respective pre-liquidation positions.

Current BTC is trading at $83,281, just $463 away from this position’s liquidation price, meaning a price increase of around 0.56% would trigger liquidation. Meanwhile, the address still holds 612.76 ETH short contracts, worth about $1.501 million, with an average entry price of $2,437.32, an unrealized loss of around $7,462, and a liquidation price of approximately $2,615.23.

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi published an op-ed in the Financial Times, stating that during last month’s UN General Assembly, he met with multiple foreign ministers, conveying a consistent message: Iran seeks a just and honorable agreement with the U.S. To achieve this, the White House must demonstrate sincerity and a genuine willingness to fully end its acts of aggression. He added that Iran is firmly committed to peacefully resolving conflicts in a dignified way, but is also fully prepared for self-defense. Araghchi noted that Trump launched the war based on a fundamental miscalculation of Iran’s strength, and meanwhile, Iran has no confidence in the U.S. government’s claimed sincerity toward peaceful coexistence with Iran. Given that the White House has not shown willingness to reach a consensus, but instead threatens to use more violence, there is little reason to expect progress. However, as a diplomat, Araghchi said he still has an obligation to do everything possible, and will continue to pursue diplomatic means even when the hope of success is slim.
