first_img The UK Chancellor of the Exchequer criticized Nigel Farage's "Bitcoin account."

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.

first_img MEXC user: API not revoked after account was hacked, approximately 340,000 USD was transferred away

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.

first_img The on-chain derivatives protocol Variational has scheduled the $VAR TGE for the fourth quarter of 2026, with the genesis allocation accounting for 32%

The on-chain derivatives protocol Variational announced that the Token Generation Event (TGE) for the token $VAR is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2026. The initial token distribution includes 32% genesis allocation, 18% ecological reserve, and 50% for team and investor shares. The genesis tokens will be airdropped according to the proportion of Variational points held and will be 100% unlocked at TGE; the ecological reserve will be retained by the Variational Foundation for ecological growth and distributed at its discretion.The team and investor tokens will be locked for 12 months after TGE, followed by a minimum unlocking period of three years. Team members are also subject to individual vesting arrangements, and the specific shares for both parties will be announced before TGE. Variational stated that it plans to use all revenue directed to the treasury for the repurchase and destruction of $VAR. Weekly point distribution will continue until TGE, with 150,000 points distributed each week; accounts must hold at least 1 point to qualify for signing terms and receiving the genesis allocation, and any unclaimed portion will be destroyed.Variational originally planned to end the points program in the third quarter of 2026 and subsequently launch $VAR, but this timeline has been delayed due to significant strategic partnerships. In the final weeks before TGE, the project will conclude private testing, launch Omni on the public mainnet, expand exchange functions, and release trading APIs, while also announcing details on repurchase and token usage, and disclosing the impact of new partnerships on Omni, Pro, and traditional financial markets on-chain when conditions permit.

first_img XRP Ledger restarts upgrade, allowing accounts to split payment and compliance permissions

The PermissionDelegationV1_1 upgrade of the XRP Ledger entered a 14-day activation countdown on September 21, having received support from 29 of the 35 trusted validator nodes. If the support rate remains above 80% during this period, the upgrade could officially activate as early as October 5 at 11:18 UTC; at least 28 validator nodes must continue to support it, or the countdown will reset.This feature allows accounts to split permissions by role. For example, a stablecoin issuer can allow a connected compliance system to approve customer accounts holding its tokens while keeping the keys with full control offline; operational accounts can gain payment permissions but cannot change keys or delegate authority to others. Each trustee can have up to 10 permissions, and the main account can modify or revoke them at any time.This is the network's second attempt to introduce this feature. The original version had vulnerabilities that attackers could exploit to make others pay transaction fees with improperly signed transactions, and by repeatedly submitting high-fee transactions, they could deplete the victim's XRP balance. This vulnerability was reported by community testers on September 15, 2025, and validator nodes were advised to reject the amendment, so it was never activated. The fixed version was released with xrpld 3.3.0, changing the way unauthorized transactions are rejected, ensuring that fees are not deducted before signature verification.
