For security reasons, the platform has restricted QR code logins on third-party high-risk websites based on real-time risk control rules.

Recently, some users have reported failed QR code login attempts. To protect user asset safety, the platform reminds users not to scan QR codes from non-official platforms to log in to the Agentic Wallet, and only use Binance AI Pro and trusted Agents (such as Claude, Codex, Grok, etc.).

According to Marvell's announcement, the company has reached a definitive agreement with Lumentum to acquire the latter in an all-stock transaction. Under the terms, Lumentum shareholders will receive 4.500 shares of Marvell common stock for each Lumentum share they hold. The transaction implies an enterprise value of approximately $115 billion for Lumentum, equivalent to around $1,132 per share, representing a premium of roughly 23.9% over the unadjusted closing prices of both companies on October 28, unaffected by prior rumors. Upon completion, existing Marvell shareholders will hold approximately 67% of the combined entity, while Lumentum shareholders will own about 33%. The two firms stated that the merger will integrate Marvell's capabilities in electrical and optical interconnects, switching, and custom chips, as well as Lumentum's strengths in high-performance lasers, optical transceivers, and optical circuit switches. The goal is to build a full-stack connectivity portfolio for AI infrastructure and expand the addressable market to around $550 billion. The transaction is expected to generate over $1 billion in annual operational cost synergies and is projected to boost Marvell's non-GAAP earnings per share in the first full year after closing. Closing is anticipated in the first half of 2028, pending approval from both companies' shareholders and regulatory authorities. Post-closing, Matt Murphy will remain Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and three Lumentum directors, including Chief Executive Officer Michael Hurlston, will join Marvell's board of directors.
