NEAR AI has confirmed a security breach in which attackers accessed account information belonging to approximately 100 users and data from 18 AI agents.
According to the company's security report, the incident involved a vulnerability in SGLang, an open-source AI inference engine running on its servers.
The vulnerability allowed an attacker to execute code on one server before gaining access to other parts of NEAR AI's infrastructure.
From there, the attacker reached an internal system connected to the company's older Private Chat service.
The stolen account details included names, email addre

Moody's Ratings has completed a pilot with Chainlink that demonstrates how credit ratings could be distributed across multiple blockchain networks at the same time.
The companies announced the successful test on November 10.
For context, Moody's provides credit ratings that help investors assess the financial risks of companies, governments, and debt instruments.
Those ratings become particularly important when investors are evaluating bonds and other debt-based investments.
But as financial institutions begin tokenizing these assets, another challenge emerges.

Visa has added Monad as another blockchain option for its stablecoin settlement program, expanding the networks participating financial institutions can use to settle payments.
The integration was announced on November 10 by the Monad Foundation.
For context, Visa's stablecoin settlement program allows eligible card issuers and payment processors to settle obligations using stablecoins instead of relying entirely on conventional bank transfers.
This can allow settlement activity to continue during weekends and holidays, when traditional banking systems may have limited processing schedules.

US inflation came in hotter than expected on November 10, sending Bitcoin toward $73,500 as investors reassessed the Federal Reserve's next move.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Consumer Price Index rose 0.4% in October, above economists' expectations of 0.3%.
That's slower than September's 0.6% increase, but prices are still rising faster than markets expected.
Core CPI, which excludes food and energy, increased 0.3% during the month.

Connecting a Ledger to MetaMask doesn’t move your crypto anywhere. Your keys stay on the device, and every transaction still needs your approval on its screen.
MetaMask handles the interface and the apps you connect to, and the Ledger does the signing. Before you start, update the firmware and install the Ethereum app on the device. On a computer the connection runs over USB. On a phone it needs a Ledger with Bluetooth.
One setting to be careful with is blind signing. Some apps need it, but it means you approve transactions your device can’t fully show you. Turn it on only when you must, and t

Coinbase has received final approval from the US Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to establish Coinbase National Trust Company.
The exchange announced the approval on November 9, following the OCC's decision the previous Friday.
The new national trust-bank charter allows Coinbase to expand its digital asset custody business under a federal regulatory framework.
For context, custody involves holding and safeguarding assets on behalf of customers.
Institutional investors often need additional controls for managing digital assets, including security procedures, reporting, and regulatory

A new US stock trading platform is being planned on Solana, with Galaxy Digital, Exodus Movement, and Forward Industries among the first companies expected to participate.
On November 9, Formation Securities announced that it had notified the US Securities and Exchange Commission of its intention to operate a tokenized securities trading venue.
The company is targeting an early 2027 launch.
Unlike platforms that simply issue tokens tracking stock prices, Formation plans to offer tokenized shares that preserve shareholder rights, including voting and dividends.

Michael Saylor's Strategy has bought another 1,036 BTC for approximately $81.9 million.
According to its November 9 SEC filing, the purchases were made between November 2 and November 8 at an average price of $79,012 per Bitcoin.
The acquisition brings Strategy's total holdings to 850,364 BTC.
That's more than 4% of Bitcoin's maximum supply of 21 million coins.
But the company's latest filing includes another interesting detail.
Strategy also repurchased approximately $188.3 million worth of its STRC preferred shares during the same period.

PNC Bank is bringing stablecoin payments into its corporate banking services through an expanded partnership with Coinbase.
On November 9, the bank announced that eligible business clients can receive payments in USDC on the Ethereum blockchain.
Here's how it works.
When a company receives USDC, the payment is automatically converted into US dollars at a 1:1 ratio and deposited into its designated PNC bank account.
That means the business can receive a blockchain-based payment without having to manage the stablecoin as a separate asset afterward.
The service uses Coinbase's payment infrastruct

Sending money abroad with stablecoins can cost less than a traditional transfer. The fee that matters most is often the one on the receiving end.
The cost has several parts: the network fee, the exchange, and how your recipient turns the stablecoins into local currency. Prices and speed also vary by network, so the same USDT or USDC can cost different amounts depending on the chain you pick.
Before you send anything, ask the person you’re sending to which network and which stablecoin their wallet or exchange supports, and compare what they’d actually receive. Send a small test amount first.

Nigeria has introduced new rules for stablecoin issuers, including a ban on algorithmic stablecoins and stricter requirements for companies operating in the country.
The regulations took effect on November 5 under the Central Bank of Nigeria.
Under the new framework, stablecoins are divided into two categories.
Companies issuing naira-backed stablecoins must maintain at least ₦10 billion in paid-up capital, while issuers of foreign-currency-backed stablecoins need at least ₦15 billion.
Each stablecoin must also receive separate approval from the central bank before issuance.

Selling a very large amount of crypto on a public exchange can move the price against you before your order even finishes.
A big order can work through several price levels in the order book, so the average price you get ends up different from the one you expected. That gap is called slippage. It’s one reason large trades are sometimes handled over the counter (OTC), where a desk quotes a price up front and settles the trade privately.
For everyday amounts, a regular exchange is fine. This only starts to matter as trades get much bigger.
We explained how private execution works and what to thi
You may not need a bridge at all to get onto Arbitrum. If your funds are on an exchange, you can often withdraw straight to it.
That can be cheaper than bridging from a wallet on Ethereum, though fees vary by exchange, so check yours before you send. If your funds are in a wallet on Ethereum, the official Arbitrum bridge lets you choose the cheapest or the fastest route. You’ll need a little ETH on Ethereum for the transaction, and ETH pays gas on Arbitrum too.
Bridges are software that people built, and software can have flaws. Stick to well-known ones and use only official links.

A candlestick doesn’t tell you what the price will do next. It tells you the story of what buyers and sellers already did.
Each candle shows four things for a period of time: where the price opened, where it closed, and its highest and lowest points (the thin lines, called wicks). Green means it closed higher than it opened, and red means it closed lower. String enough of them together and you can see whether prices are trending up, trending down, or moving sideways.
Chart patterns are probabilities, not promises. They help you read what’s happening, and they can’t tell you what comes next.

The most useful crypto records are the ones you saved before you needed them.
Coinbase lets you generate your full transaction history from the Reports section, as a CSV or PDF, and you can filter by asset and date range. Keep a copy somewhere safe each year. It makes tax time easier, and it helps if you ever need to check where a deposit or withdrawal went.
The transaction ID (or hash) is the key for that. Paste it into a block explorer for the right network, and you can see whether a transfer was confirmed. It confirms the transfer happened, but it doesn’t tell you the funds reached the righ
Zcash is approaching a major network upgrade that will reduce the time between blocks from 75 seconds to approximately 25 seconds.
The upgrade, called NU7, targets mainnet activation at block 3,543,405, expected around November 5 or 6.
That would make block production roughly three times faster than before.
For users, faster blocks can mean shorter waits for transaction confirmations, although the time required by exchanges and wallets will still depend on their own confirmation policies.
But speed isn't the only change.
NU7 will also retire support for older version 4 transactions and introdu

Schroders, a global investment manager overseeing approximately $1.1 trillion in assets, has launched tokenized exposure to its Emerging Market Bond strategy on Solana.
The November 4 launch was developed with Centrifuge, a platform specializing in bringing traditional financial assets onto blockchains.
But there's an important distinction.
Schroders hasn't moved $1.1 trillion onto Solana.
That figure represents the company's total assets under management, not the amount invested in the new blockchain product.

Circle, the company behind USDC, reported $865 million in total revenue and reserve income for Q3 2026, an increase of 17% compared with the same period last year.
The company also recorded $226 million in net income, while USDC transactions processed onchain reached $13.9 trillion during the quarter.
That's a 49% increase in transaction volume year over year.
But there's an interesting detail in the earnings.
Circle's income from the reserves backing USDC actually declined 8% to $658 million.
Why?
Because lower interest rates reduced the returns the company earned from the assets supporting i

Bitcoin briefly fell below $76,000 as the US midterm election results unfolded, before recovering above $80,000 on November 4.
The recovery came as investors adjusted to Democrats winning control of both chambers of Congress, which could change the outlook for cryptocurrency legislation.
At first, markets reacted negatively to the election results.
Bitcoin dropped toward $75,700 as traders considered the possibility of tougher regulatory oversight and a more complicated path for crypto-friendly legislation.
But the market reversed course.
By Wednesday evening, Bitcoin had climbed back above $8

A flash loan can borrow a huge sum with no collateral, because the whole loan must be repaid inside a single transaction. If it isn’t, the transaction is cancelled as if it never happened.
That’s what makes them useful for things like arbitrage, swapping collateral, and refinancing a debt in one step. It’s also why costs matter: the protocol fee, gas, trading costs, and slippage can wipe out a small profit, and a reverted transaction can still cost you the gas.
The risk usually isn’t the loan itself. In past exploits, attackers used one to push on a weak spot, like a price feed that was easy t
