Bybit2026-10-02 13:56:07Bybit CEO says exchange shifted to zero-trust model after 2025 attackBybit CEO Ben Zhou said in an interview with Turkish media outlet Fintechtime that one issue exposed by the exchange’s 2025 attack was its reliance on a third-party service provider and the concentration of too many assets within that provider’s related system. He said Bybit has since overhauled its security policy, moving to a zero-trust model, distributing wallets across different architectures, and strengthening the separation between local and global operations to reduce the risk that a single breach could affect a large amount of assets. Zhou also said Bybit wants to build its Turkey business into a super app covering crypto trading, payments, global transfers, and more investment products.90

In short, the release was positioned as a branding communication rather than a launch, roadmap update, or deal announcement.120
Changpeng Zha2026-09-30 23:59:35CZ revisits FTX, Hyperliquid and the 10/10 sell-off, saying crypto is still far from saturatedBinance founder Changpeng Zhao, better known as CZ, used a Sept. 25 interview on the When Shift Happens Podcast to revisit the arc of his career, from growing up in a low-income immigrant family in Canada to building Binance out of an existing exchange-tech team in 2017. He said Binance’s early rise came from execution, team alignment and a focus on user protection, while arguing that crypto adoption remains low both by user count and by share of global wealth. In the interview, CZ also addressed why most listed projects eventually disappoint investors, why he does not agree with the logic of restricting early-stage investing to so-called qualified investors, and how his 「4」 meme emerged from a 2023 post about ignoring FUD. A large part of the conversation focused on crisis moments. CZ rejected the claim that his Nov. 6, 2022 tweet 「killed」 FTX, saying no real company can be destroyed by a single tweet from a rival and describing the post as a public disclosure tied to Binance’s plan to sell remaining FTT received in its exit from an FTX equity investment. He also discussed the pressure of BNB trading below its ICO price shortly after launch, his U.S. legal case, his concern while entering prison that additional charges could keep coming, and the process that led to his presidential pardon. On market structure, he said Hyperliquid is not Binance’s enemy, called for more exchanges and perp DEX competition, and said HYPE may have faced listing constraints because Binance generally wants to directly control and custody listed assets. He also pushed back on claims that Binance caused the Oct. 10, 2025 market crash, saying the sell-off began after tariff news and before Binance’s issue involving Ethena’s USDe. CZ said he now spends more time on regulatory discussions with governments, investing through YZi Labs and building Giggle Academy, which he described as a fast-growing free education project for children.140
Drift Foundat2026-09-30 14:26:46Drift Foundation says $9.2 million in stolen funds frozen, 107,165 ETH remains unmovedDrift Foundation has released an update on recovery efforts tied to its April 1 security incident, saying roughly $295.4 million in user assets was stolen. The foundation said it hired Mandiant, zeroShadow, and SEAL 911 to investigate the attack and trace the funds. Mandiant identified the attacker as North Korean threat group UNC6862. According to the update, the stolen assets were later bridged to Ethereum and split across four wallets holding about 130,259 ETH in total. Three of those wallets, containing a combined 107,165 ETH, have not moved any funds so far. A fourth wallet transferred about 23,094 ETH to Tornado Cash on July 23. The foundation said about $9.2 million in stolen funds has now been frozen. Those funds had previously moved through Tornado Cash in August, though any unfreezing and return process will still require legal coordination. Drift Foundation also said any assets recovered through freezes, bounty efforts, or law enforcement will be sent to the DFX recovery pool. In parallel, it is evaluating the future path of the DRIFT token across the broader ecosystem. The foundation has also launched a public bounty program with Bybit, offering a 10% reward on successfully recovered funds.120
