CZ: Recommends implementing a "quarantine" period for new hardware wallets.
According to a report by U.Today, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) is urging crypto investors to implement a strict "quarantine" period for new hardware wallets. The warning comes after an incident in Southeast Asia in which users lost more than $86 million due to an attack on a local Ledger distributor. CZ advised that after purchasing a device or downloading software, users should avoid immediately transferring large amounts of assets to a new address, and the wallet should remain unused for at least a few weeks. During this period, investors should pay close attention to related news to guard against potential hacking attacks. CZ emphasized that self-custody of digital assets always comes with additional responsibilities, and users should be vigilant about the risk that physical devices may be tampered with during delivery.
NEAR Protocol supports post-quantum signature algorithms without requiring asset migration.
According to news from Bijie, NEAR Protocol has announced that its accounts now support the post-quantum signature algorithm ml-dsa, with no need to migrate assets. The NEAR One team is developing nep-655, which generates implicit accounts through the hash of the account's initial state, avoiding the exposure of public keys or public key hashes on-chain. This feature has already launched on the testnet and is expected to be deployed to the mainnet in the coming weeks. In addition, the team is designing a scalable signature mechanism for the NEAR Intents wallet contract, supporting ml-dsa and hash-based signature schemes, and is developing a q-day recovery registration mechanism for blockchains that do not yet support post-quantum keys, allowing users to pre-commit recovery keys through rotatable hashes.

Apple cuts iPhone 18 Pro orders by 15% due to AI chip shortage.
According to news from Bijie, Apple is cutting component orders for the iPhone 18 Pro by 15% due to an AI-driven memory shortage. According to a Nikkei Asia report, Apple asked suppliers to reduce component production in October, with some orders cut by 15% to 20%. Affected by this, Apple's stock price fell about 1.9% in early trading on Friday. This situation highlights one consequence of the AI boom: the same data center spending that is driving semiconductor profits is making consumer electronics more expensive. The starting prices of the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max are $1,199 and $1,299, respectively, both $100 more expensive than the previous generation, partly due to rising memory and storage costs. TrendForce estimates that the component cost of the iPhone 18 Pro could rise by about 38%, with memory's share of device material costs increasing from 10% to 34%. These reports have raised questions about whether Apple's premium pricing strategy can withstand sustained component inflation.
