According to the GoPlus security team, an unclaimed treasury contract on the Base chain was attacked. The attacker added a malicious contract to the lending whitelist through Safe multi-signature and withdrew 1783 aBaswstETH, then redeemed approximately 1783 wstETH on Aave V3, resulting in a loss of about 6 million dollars.It is reported that the attack stemmed from failures in multi-signature governance and access control. The project team had not executed Safe transactions on the treasury contract for 25 days prior to the attack, which may have been due to social engineering attacks or internal collusion; the core contracts of Aave and the Base chain itself were not affected. As of the time of publication, approximately 31.7 million dollars in assets remain at risk in the attacked treasury.

Cryptocurrency trader Ansem posted that frequently monitoring the market and judging price trends based on 15-minute candlesticks can easily lead to overtrading. Investors should manage their spot, perpetual contract, and high-risk on-chain trading accounts separately, and should not attempt to catch every local top and bottom, as this may harm long-term investment returns. Instead of frequent trading, it is better to study historical bull markets and observe how long upward trends typically last.The upward cycles of altcoins are usually faster, often outperforming the market for 4 to 6 months, after which new market leaders emerge, especially after a market capitalization growth of more than 10 times. However, there may be a few exceptions in this cycle: some altcoins may see significant revenue growth alongside price increases, thus their fundamentals may improve simultaneously.In past cycles, altcoins primarily peaked due to shifts in market attention and weakening momentum, but in this cycle, if some projects experience substantial changes in revenue and other data, institutional funds may continue to buy actively, and investors need to adjust their original judgments in a timely manner based on new information.In the last cycle, Bitcoin bottomed out in January 2023 and peaked in October 2025, with an upward trend lasting about 33 months. If this cycle bottomed out in July, it is currently only in the 4th month.It is believed that in a longer-term bull market, multiple "mini-bulls" led by specific altcoins will emerge, and investors need to identify these phase-strong assets and continuously reinvest profits into high-performing targets, allowing short-term winners to gradually transform into long-term investments.

According to The New York Times, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao recalled that one day earlier this year, he was lying in bed handling work—after struggling with chronic pain for a long time, he often worked while lying down—when suddenly the window began to shake. He got up and walked to the balcony, where he saw a trail of smoke left in the sky.Changpeng Zhao lives on Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi, an area that faces Iran across the Persian Gulf, and not long ago, Iran had launched a missile towards the UAE.This attack marked the beginning of a geopolitical crisis that plunged the entire region into turmoil, but Changpeng Zhao was not overly worried. He returned to bed to continue working. "More people die in traffic accidents than from missiles," he later stated, "the security here is very good."

MOJO founder Forest Bai commented on Opinion and YZi Labs on X. He stated that Opinion had received a batch of positive reviews in the primary market at that time, and some friends had recommended it to him, but he still believed that the project belonged to a niche direction and had nothing particularly special.He also mentioned that at that stage, he had already demystified 99.9% of primary market projects; even with luxurious teams and lavish funding, most projects merely held mediocre ideas, seeking very niche, self-indulgent markets, ultimately delivering outsourced-level products, not to mention that most projects' various elements were below mediocre levels.Regarding YZi Labs, Forest Bai stated that the institution has top-notch relationships and deep capital in the industry, but it overly believes in its ability to turn stone into gold through incubation. He acknowledged that the relevant arrangements could indeed lead to token listings and user distribution, but if the project's inherent value is limited, this is not empowerment but rather a consumption of its own resources.He further stated that successful cases of the incubator model worldwide are few and far between; any team with capability, integrity, and vision would not accept being undervalued and bound to an ecosystem through incubation.

Famous trader Killa stated that he does not believe Bitcoin will hit new lows again and is currently maintaining a long position. However, after the U.S. midterm elections, the market may still experience some de-risking behavior, so it is not the right time to establish hedge short positions in advance.Historically, Bitcoin's performance has been weak after every U.S. midterm election cycle. However, if Bitcoin continues to rise before the elections, traders can wait until the midterm elections are closer to decide whether to take action based on the price trends at that time.He believes that a more reasonable strategy right now is to continue holding long positions and observe market reactions before and after the midterm elections, and then consider whether to establish hedge short positions, rather than shorting in advance solely based on historical cycles.

Analyst Murphy pointed out that BTC has consecutively formed doji candles on the daily chart, with rare upper and lower wicks. Data shows that on August 1, two notable accumulation bars appeared in the range of $62,000 to $63,000, totaling approximately 1.68 million BTC, with a concentration of 12.9%; on October 3, two prominent accumulation bars also appeared in the range of $83,000 to $84,000, totaling approximately 1.52 million BTC, and the concentration has risen to 12%, with the upper warning zone close at hand.After this set of data combinations appeared on August 1, BTC rose from $60,000 to $80,000 in just 17 days. Murphy believes that the accumulation and rising concentration do not indicate a definite direction, but the probability of "amplified volatility" is increasing. It is expected that a significant event may occur in the market within a short period of 1 month or a longer period of 2 months.

Alon, co-founder of Pump.fun, stated that two months after the launch of the platform's $15 million Callout reward program, it was found that the initial mechanism inadvertently incentivized undesirable behavior, leading to a flood of low-quality content and weakening users' willingness to continuously create high-quality content.Pump.fun subsequently adjusted the reward algorithm to place greater emphasis on content quality rather than the quantity of posts. According to the new mechanism, the more Callouts a user posts each day, the lower the marginal returns from the new content. Alon mentioned that the reward mechanism is still undergoing iterations, but there is still a lot of work to be done to ensure that a large number of users can sustainably produce high-quality content over the long term.He also stated that the rewards currently cover both top accounts and accounts with fewer than 10 followers, with no favoritism or preferential treatment. Alon suggested that users focus on recommending quality tokens, building trader trust through content, and earning rewards based on the trading volume generated by their Callouts. He emphasized that simply flooding the platform with Callouts or dumping tokens to followers will not yield sustainable returns.

Due to the impact of weak non-farm payroll data from the United States and market turmoil in France, the urgency for interest rate hikes among Federal Reserve and European Central Bank policymakers has diminished. Both central banks will release the minutes from last month's meetings, which will reflect concerns about inflationary pressures. The Federal Reserve's September minutes may indicate expectations for another rate hike before the end of the year, but recent data suggests that the labor market has not fueled inflation, making the threshold for a rate hike in October high.
