March 10: Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi told the U.S. Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) in a March 9 local time interview that he does not believe Iran’s new Supreme Leader will consider dialogue with the U.S. or renegotiations. Araghchi emphasized the entire blame for the conflict rests with the U.S. and Israel. He added slowdowns or even halts in Middle East oil production and transportation have rendered the region insecure, with full responsibility lying with the U.S. and Israel. “Iran bears no blame for this—it is a war imposed on Iran,” he said, noting Iran’s actions are solely “legitimate and rightful self-defense.”

On March 10, BlockSec monitoring systems detected a suspicious transaction targeting the MT-WBNB liquidity pool on Binance Smart Chain (BSC), resulting in an estimated loss of roughly $242,000. The exploit stemmed from a flaw in the protocol’s buyer restriction mechanism: Under deflationary mode, normal buy operations would revert, but the router and trading pair were whitelisted—allowing the attacker to bypass restrictions by executing router swaps and liquidity removals to acquire MT tokens from the pair. The attacker then sold MT to accumulate a "pendingBurnAmount," called the `distributeFees()` function to directly burn MT from the liquidity pair (artificially inflating MT’s price), and finally swapped MT back to WBNB to lock in profits. Additionally, a recommended rule permitting transfers of the first 0.2 MT bypassed the buyer restriction, further enabling the attacker to execute the exploit.
