Highlight Clip: CZ Explains Why He Recommended Pausing Withdrawals After the Bybit Hack CZ Explains Why He Recommended Pausing Withdrawals After the Bybit Hack On September 25, 2026, Binance founder CZ said in an interview with When Shift Happens that after Bybit was hacked, he publicly suggested pausing withdrawals as a more cautious security measure to prevent further abnormal outflows of funds. He said that while suspending services could disrupt trading continuity and inconvenience users, security risks should take priority. Bybit ultimately did not pause withdrawals and no further issues occurred, which, in his view, also showed that there is no absolute right or wrong in such situations and that the key lies in risk assessment. — link

Joseph Lubin: No Indication MetaMask Wallets or Customer Funds Were Affected by Security Incident Ethereum co-founder and Consensys founder Joseph Lubin said a security incident affected part of its infrastructure, but investigations so far show no indication that MetaMask wallets or customer funds were affected. Users' recovery phrases and private keys were not involved. His team and partners rotated validator keys as a precaution. Lubin said validator and withdrawal keys are separate, and his team does not hold clients' withdrawal keys, preventing the incident from causing unauthorized transfers of staked ETH. — link

Highlight Clip: Tom Lee: Continued DAT Buying Could Push Crypto Prices Higher Tom Lee: Continued DAT Buying Could Push Crypto Prices Higher On September 30, 2026, BitMine Chairman Tom Lee told CoinDesk at Korea Blockchain Week that digital asset treasury companies (DATs) trading above their net asset value can raise capital to buy more crypto, reducing available supply and potentially driving prices higher. Citing HYPE as an example, he said a Hyperliquid DAT holds about 14% of the token supply and continues to buy. If its holdings reached 50%, HYPE could rise parabolically. WuBlockchain notes that Tom Lee's market forecasts tend to be optimistic. His bullish targets may not materialize, and actual market performance may differ significantly from his predictions. Readers are encouraged to focus on his analytical reasoning rather than use specific price targets or timelines as a basis for investment decisions. — link

Highlight Clip: Michael Saylor: Bitcoin's 20% Annual Gain Is Enough to Cover the Dividend Michael Saylor: Bitcoin's 20% Annual Gain Is Enough to Cover the Dividend Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor said the company expects Bitcoin to appreciate by around 20%–30% annually over the long term, meaning that even with STRC paying a 12% annual dividend, the cost remains manageable under his assumptions. He described STRC as a credit instrument rather than a product that requires investors to take on Bitcoin’s full volatility. Compared with bank preferred shares, high-yield bonds and private credit, STRC offers higher yields and seeks to maintain relative price stability through Strategy’s mechanism of buying back or issuing shares around the $100 level. Saylor said the credit foundation behind STRC comes from Strategy’s large Bitcoin holdings, and that the company aims to convert part of Bitcoin’s value into a relatively stable income-generating instrument. — link

bitFlyer Launches Anti-Fraud Cooldown, Triggering 48-Hour Transfer Restrictions on Deposits Within 90 Days of Verification Japan’s largest crypto exchange bitFlyer announced that it will introduce an anti-fraud measure called “Cooldown” on October 15. Individual customers within 90 days of completing identity verification will enter a 48-hour cooldown period after each JPY deposit, during which part of their crypto assets cannot be sent to external addresses. The restricted amount equals JPY deposits made in the previous 48 hours minus JPY 100,000 (about $634); deposits of JPY 100,000 or less are unaffected. Quick Deposit is excluded because it already carries a seven-day transfer restriction. The measure does not affect JPY deposits or withdrawals, crypto trading, holding, or receiving assets. — link

Italian Private Banking Giant Fideuram Hit by AI Voice Scam, at Least €36 Million Converted Into Crypto According to the Italian media outlet Milano, in February 2026, former Fideuram Chairman Paolo Molesini received a WhatsApp message impersonating Carlo Messina, CEO of Intesa Sanpaolo Group, followed by a phone call using an AI-generated voice impersonating lawyer Paolo Nastasi. Fideuram is the private banking subsidiary of Intesa Sanpaolo, one of Italy’s largest banking groups. Molesini then instructed the finance department to transfer approximately €95 million to accounts in mainland China, Hong Kong and other locations. Fideuram later recovered around €40 million, while Portuguese authorities froze an additional €13 million. At least €36 million was subsequently converted into crypto after multiple overseas transfers, and investigators are tracing the funds through international judicial cooperation. Molesini was not investigated and resigned as chairman on March 12, citing “personal reasons.” — link

SlowMist: Aave v3 Loop Safe Module Exploited, Approximately 114.09 ETH Stolen SlowMist issued a security alert stating that Aave v3 Loop Safe Module was exploited through an access-control vulnerability in FlashLoopAdapter’s open() and close() functions.

Aave founder Stani Kulechov posted that the incident did not involve Aave v3 contracts, but rather a third-party external adapter built on top of Aave, with no impact on Aave v3. — link

Highlight Clip: Tom Lee: ETH Could Be Much Higher Than $10,000 in the Next 12 Months Tom Lee: ETH Could Be Much Higher Than $10,000 in the Next 12 Months At Korea Blockchain Week on September 30, 2026, BitMine Chairman Tom Lee told CoinDesk he was unsure whether ETH would reach the $10,000 year-end target projected by Arthur Hayes, but said it could trade well above that level within the next 12 months. Lee called Hayes’ outlook conservative. He also used a hypothetical 25-fold rise in ETH to illustrate potential returns for BitMine shareholders; he did not present it as a specific price target. WuBlockchain notes that Tom Lee’s market forecasts are often optimistic, and his bullish price targets may not materialize. Actual market movements can differ substantially from his projections. During last year’s KBW, he predicted ETH would reach $10,000–$12,000; the crypto market subsequently suffered the “October 10 flash crash.” — link
