At the "Crypto 2026: From Cryptocurrency to Smart Economy" themed forum held in Hong Kong, Tencent Cloud's industry architect Alan Nie delivered a keynote speech titled "Cloud + AI Dual Engine: Tencent Cloud Empowers New Growth in Web3."Alan Nie pointed out that Web3 enterprises face three major bottlenecks in global infrastructure, R&D efficiency, and business intelligence. Tencent Cloud deeply integrates the "Cloud + AI" dual engine to provide low-latency infrastructure covering the globe.

In financial scenarios, the automation of research report reproduction cycles has been shortened from three days to half a day; in on-chain data analysis scenarios, storage costs have been reduced to one-tenth of the original, with query responses reaching millisecond levels.Alan Nie stated that Tencent Cloud is committed to using the "Cloud + AI" dual engine to help Web3 enterprises build the next generation of intelligent economic infrastructure.

The Hong Kong police disclosed a fraud case that lured investors into cryptocurrency with the gimmick of "AI quantitative trading," in which a woman was scammed out of approximately 7.7 million Hong Kong dollars. The fraudster impersonated an "investment expert" and proactively contacted the victim through Telegram, claiming to use "quantitative trading" and "AI algorithms" to achieve stable high returns. The victim transferred USDT and ETH worth about 7.7 million Hong Kong dollars from her electronic wallet to a designated address 17 times, only to realize she had been scammed when her withdrawal attempts were rejected.The Hong Kong police remind the public that while cryptocurrencies have high return potential, they also come with high volatility and high risks. The so-called "AI trading" and "quantitative guaranteed profits" are often bait for scams. The public should be wary of the "impossible triangle" trap of high returns, low risks, and low thresholds.

According to Decrypt, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (a senior Democrat on the Senate Banking Committee) wrote to SEC Chairman Paul Atkins, stating that he may have "deliberately misled" Congress regarding the decline in the number of new enforcement actions by the SEC during a hearing, and pointed out that if there are significant false statements made to Congress, it could involve criminal liability.The report cites enforcement data disclosed by the SEC for 2025, stating that the SEC added a total of 456 new enforcement actions last year, of which about 200 were from the previous administration, and approximately 256 were added during the current administration, significantly lower than the average of about 765 per year over the past decade. Warren believes that the sharp decline in enforcement actions, staff reductions, and sudden leadership changes may weaken the SEC's ability to protect investors and maintain market order, and questions whether there is political favoritism and selective enforcement. The SEC declined to comment on this.

According to RHEA Finance's official disclosure, the NEAR ecosystem lending protocol RHEA Finance (formerly known as Burrow Finance) experienced a margin trading feature hack, resulting in a loss of approximately $18.4 million.The attacker began laying the groundwork several days prior by creating multiple fake token pools on Ref Finance and injecting liquidity, constructing a malicious exchange route that exploited a vulnerability in the protocol's slippage protection mechanism—this mechanism did not account for the scenario where intermediate tokens were reused when calculating the minimum output of multi-step exchanges—leading to the borrowed debt tokens being directed into fake token pools controlled by the attacker, triggering a large-scale forced liquidation that ultimately drained the protocol's reserve pool. During the attack, the attacker deleted a total of 55 intermediate accounts to cover their tracks. Currently, the attacker has returned approximately 3.359 million USDC and 1.564 million NEAR to the RHEA lending contract, while another 4.34 million USDT has been frozen (of which Tether froze 3.291 million and NEAR Intents froze 1.053 million). The protocol contract has been suspended, and the team is collaborating with centralized exchanges for joint tracking and has notified relevant law enforcement agencies.
