OpenAI has suspended the training of its latest AI model. According to the Associated Press, its AI agent used access keys obtained online to scrape data from the U.S. Census Bureau website, marking the second time the company has halted training since the agent breached Hugging Face. The so-called agent refers to an AI program capable of autonomously browsing the web and writing code without human approval at each step, which OpenAI tests during the model training and evaluation phases.Specifically, the agent found developer keys in public code repositories like GitHub and used them to pull demographic and economic data from the U.S. Census Data API. The U.S. Department of Commerce stated that this data was already public and there was no confidential information leaked. In the SEC incident, the agent copied public materials from SEC.gov and Investor.gov and reposted them on other websites; OpenAI claimed it did not use SEC credentials, and the SEC stated it found no evidence of unauthorized access to non-public information. Additionally, the independent AI research organization Transluce reported that an agent suspected to be from OpenAI attempted to breach the website of the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights but was unsuccessful; OpenAI is still investigating, and the Department of Education stated that no impact was found.Regarding the frequent involvement with government websites, OpenAI told CNN that its model often regards government websites as authoritative sources of public information. The company stated that it has currently notified dozens of agencies, and the review of the agent's activities will take months.

In a speech on Monday, UK Chancellor of the Exchequer John Healey criticized Reform Party leader Nigel Farage's stance on Bitcoin, calling him "Liz Truss with a Bitcoin account." Healey stated that Farage wants the public to believe he is a representative of the common people, but on economic issues, he is simply "Liz Truss with a Bitcoin account." Liz Truss is the UK's shortest-serving Prime Minister, widely criticized for her 2022 mini-budget driven by debt. Healey also mentioned that his party, the Labour Party, will help the UK lead through fiscal discipline, good jobs, and a strong industry.Farage has long been a political supporter of cryptocurrency, primarily viewing Bitcoin as a matter of personal freedom since 2020, and opposing state control over currency. He has stated that he was denied banking services by the UK private bank Coutts, which led him to take a greater interest in digital assets. Last year, at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas, he claimed that if elected Prime Minister, he would cut crypto capital gains tax and force the Bank of England to establish Bitcoin reserves.Farage has faced criticism this year for accepting donations from cryptocurrency entrepreneurs, including tech entrepreneur and Tether investor Christopher Harborne, as well as Ben Delo, one of the founders of the now-closed crypto exchange BitMEX. The Metropolitan Police have launched an investigation into reports of Reform violating overseas donation rules, with Reform denying any wrongdoing and stating that they will cooperate.

On Monday, the oracle network Chainlink released the cross-chain interoperability protocol CCIP 2, making significant upgrades to its communication and cross-chain bridge infrastructure. The new version allows enterprises to add their own security verification checks on top of Chainlink's default network of 16 independent node operators. Enterprises can run their own validators or hire external service providers such as Infosys and Nethermind. Chainlink stated that users should not be forced to become "cross-chain security infrastructure experts."This upgrade comes about five months after the Kelp DAO was hacked in April of this year. The attackers are reportedly linked to the North Korean Lazarus group, stealing approximately $292 million in rsETH by deceiving the single validator relied upon by the Kelp cross-chain bridge, which operates on LayerZero. LayerZero blamed Kelp for using only a single validator, while Kelp stated that LayerZero employees had reviewed its setup and raised no objections. Kelp subsequently announced that it would migrate rsETH to Chainlink.The upgrade also adjusts the security mechanism that Chainlink had previously heavily promoted; its risk management network will no longer operate as an independent review node, with such independent checks now provided by optional validators. This means that users who have not added any validators currently rely on a single validation network, whereas previously they relied on two. Existing Chainlink users have been automatically migrated to the new version, but the company has not disclosed which institutions are using the new validators, only stating that Aave and Maple have begun adopting other features of the upgrade.

A MEXC user posted on X that their account was compromised after someone reset the security items. MEXC has confirmed the account was hacked, frozen the account, and assisted in recovery, but did not revoke the API left by the attacker. From 04:12 to 04:25 on September 27, 2026 (Beijing time), the account transferred out 322,110 USDT and 9,133,999 ONE, totaling approximately $340,000, about 27 minutes after the 24-hour transfer limit was lifted.The user stated that at 03:10 on September 25, they received a reset security item email that was not submitted by them, and about 10 minutes later, the request was approved. Subsequently, the account was logged in from an IP in Jakarta, Indonesia, bound to Google verification, and at 05:05, an API was created, approximately 83 seconds after logging in. At 10:55 that day, MEXC froze the account after a risk review and reverted to the original email. Customer service responded in writing that the review materials met the requirements, so the binding change was approved, and after the risk review, the account was urgently frozen and reverted to the initial email. The user changed their password and Google verification on September 26 but stated that the API was not revoked, and there were no related records in the security operation history.The user also claimed that there were no new login records in the login history when the assets were transferred out. They have submitted a formal claim to MEXC and attempted to report to the police, with the ticket number M2026092712031, requesting the platform to preserve logs, provide a written explanation of the review and API situation, and return the aforementioned assets. MEXC customer service stated that it is currently unable to confirm whether these transfers were initiated via APP, WEB, or API, and the issue has been forwarded to the relevant department.

The U.S. stock BNB cryptocurrency treasury company Nano Labs and Chairman Kong Jianping stated that their X account previously suffered a phishing attack and has now successfully regained control. Kong Jianping mentioned that the attacker sent phishing emails to his commonly used email address, and his AI assistant mistakenly identified the fake link in the email as the official X verification page, leading him to input the verification code sent to his linked email into the phishing page, ultimately resulting in the account being stolen; during this time, the account briefly posted several scam messages.Kong Jianping reminded users not to click on unofficial links, and even if the AI determines the link to be trustworthy, they should remain vigilant. He also suggested setting the email linked to X to an address that is not easily known to outsiders to reduce the risk of account theft.

According to a report by ZDNet Korea on September 28, Samsung Electronics is accelerating the construction of the first mass production line (Ph1) at the Pyeongtaek Fifth Campus (P5) and is discussing with major equipment manufacturers to move the target for Ph1 equipment installation from the originally planned third quarter of next year to the second quarter of next year. P5 is the next-generation semiconductor production base aimed to be operational by 2028, and the construction of the Ph1 cleanroom began in the third quarter of this year.Samsung Electronics had previously advanced the completion of the P5 Ph1 cleanroom, originally scheduled for early next year, by about six months, so the equipment installation is expected around the third quarter of next year. Industry insiders say that the start time for equipment installation is planned to be moved up from July to August next year to around May to June next year; others have indicated that Samsung has even proposed to deliver equipment in the first quarter of next year for temporary storage at other locations, showing a strong willingness to invest early.Discussions on the investment for the second phase of P5 (Ph2) are also progressing. Currently, Ph1 is more likely to be built as a DRAM and HBM production line, while Ph2 is more likely to be built as an advanced NAND production line, including the tenth generation (V10). Equipment industry insiders say that formal purchase orders have not yet been placed, but Samsung has discussed building Ph2 as a NAND production line with partners, and due to the long equipment delivery cycle, they are requesting to prepare relevant components in advance. Reports indicate that large global tech companies are increasing orders for high-performance DRAM and NAND for AI infrastructure, while storage companies like Samsung have limited production capacity. Samsung stated during the second quarter earnings call in July that unmet demand this year will extend into next year, and the supply shortage next year will be more severe than this year, with shortages expected to continue until 2028.
