More →Critical Shiba Inu (SHIB) Warning: Here’s the Latest Threat
The SHIB Army, the collective term for Shiba Inu holders, supporters, traders, and enthusiasts, has once again found itself in the crosshairs of scammers. Such schemes can lead to painful losses, so here’s how users can protect themselves. Recently, an X account falsely claimed a Shiba Inu airdrop was “back,” telling users they were eligible for the dubious campaign after they completed a supposed wallet verification check. The mysterious person or entity also provided a link, but people should not click it, as it was flagged as a scam. Long-time Shiba Inu community member Marzael.shib <a href="https://x.com/Mazrael_shib/status/2109464475833147516" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">warned</a> that no such token distribution exists, calling the development “a drainer.” “They are flooding the timeline; recommend not clicking and report,” they added. The X account BSCN also sounded the alarm on the matter. The team <a href="https://x.com/BSCNews/status/2109920444170359054" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">said</a> the real danger comes when users connect their wallets and sign malicious approvals. “Those permissions can allow scammers to transfer tokens without stealing a victim’s password,” the warning reads. The popular meme coin boasts a vast and devoted community, making it a frequent target for scammers. Earlier this year, Shibarium Trustwatch (an X account dedicated to warning Shiba Inu users about potential threats) <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/critical-warning-shiba-inu-shib-community-faces-new-threat/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">warned</a> about numerous fraud attempts involving the SOU NFT. Its team clarified that users will never receive the non-fungible token in question, and that eligible users can claim it only through Shiba Inu’s official website. “Do not click on shared, shortened, or copied links. Scammers often create fake websites that look identical to the real one in order to steal funds. Always type the official address directly into your browser and verify you are on the correct domain before connecting your wallet. Never share your private keys or seed phrase with anyone under any circumstances,” it added. Prior to that, the same X account <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/critical-warning-concerning-shiba-inu-shib-users-details/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">warned</a> that bad actors created a malicious website impersonating Shiba Inu’s official platform. The fake site includes “special” promotions and false claims of collaborations and presale bonuses, designed to lure people into connecting their wallets. The meme coin’s price has plunged by nearly 12% over the past week. However, the main reason for the drop appears to be the overall decline in the cryptocurrency market during that period, not the scam warning that could have spread panic across the community. As of this writing, SHIB trades around $0.000005163 (per CoinGecko), down 95% from its late-2021 all-time high. Analysts have been relatively sile
David Sacks criticized Anthropic for exaggerating the security threats of small models, saying that enterprise-specific small models are disrupting the closed-source AI business model.
CoinWorld news: David Sacks posted on X criticizing Anthropic's latest research report for exaggerating the security risks of small AI models autonomously replicating and spreading on IoT devices. He pointed out that the relevant experiments relied on devices with open debugging ports and artificially set propagation tasks, which is not enough to prove the existence of an AI worm capable of autonomous spread. Sacks said that traditional malware is already capable of spreading at scale by exploiting vulnerabilities such as default passwords and open ports on devices, and that small models have not significantly changed this threat pattern. He mentioned that Coinbase recently fine-tuned the Qwen-3.5-9B model, which outperformed Anthropic Opus 4.5 and reduced fraudulent transactions by about 30%. Sacks believes that small models optimized for specific enterprise tasks are competitive in cost, speed, and effectiveness, and are posing a challenge to the business models of closed-source large-model companies such as Anthropic, and he questioned Anthropic's emphasis on their safety risks when small models gain market share.

Apple and OpenAI go to trial in a major AI trade secrets case.
CoinWorld news: Apple and OpenAI are heading to court in a major AI trade secrets case. Apple has sued OpenAI, accusing the AI company of conspiring to steal proprietary information related to its upcoming products, and the two sides are about to face the first hearing in this high-stakes lawsuit. Wednesday's hearing has two core issues: Apple is asking the court to issue an injunction requiring OpenAI to immediately stop using the allegedly stolen trade secrets, while OpenAI has filed a motion seeking to have Apple's lawsuit dismissed entirely. Although the two sides reached a partnership two years ago to integrate ChatGPT into Apple's software, the two companies have been at odds for months. The dispute erupted against the backdrop of hundreds of Apple employees leaving to join OpenAI. OpenAI is currently targeting a valuation of $1.4 trillion and preparing for an IPO, and this lawsuit casts a shadow over the startup.

According to Coinpaper, Nvidia, Broadcom, and Micron are expected to drive nearly 40% of S&P 500 earnings growth in the third quarter of 2026, even as AI stocks face rising yields and selling pressure. According to Goldman Sachs data, S&P 500 earnings are expected to grow about 29.6% year over year.
