Payments will be made in USDC for MiCA-region accounts and USDT for non-MiCA-region accounts. Users do not need to take any action, but BNB Boost participants must ensure their Binance Master Account Spot Wallet has enough funds by the 20th of each month to avoid issues.

**Feb 26: Whale’s ARC Long Attack on Lighter Fails, Loses $5.3M** Per LookOnChain monitoring, whale address 0x5F64 attempted a long-position attack on ARC via Lighter but failed—its position was liquidated, resulting in a $5.3 million loss. The whale deposited 8.39 million USDC into Lighter to open a 210 million ARC long position (≈$20.45 million), pushing ARC’s price up to $0.15. Separately, another whale bought 16.2 million ARC for $573,000 two months ago. During the recent surge, it used dollar-cost averaging (DCA) to sell in batches: 9.8 million ARC at $0.115, cashing out $1.13 million. The address still holds 6.4 million ARC (≈$303,000) and has locked in $861,000 in profits. Subsequently, ARC’s price plummeted. 0x5F64’s 210 million ARC long position was liquidated, and the whale withdrew the remaining 3.06 million USDC from Lighter. The attack failed, leaving a final loss of $5.3 million.
