I can’t stop thinking about this… before hackers stole $6.4 billion from Binance, they spent days rehearsing the attack in public. The test transactions on Ethereum were worth only a few dollars. Nobody stopped them.
Bloomberg reconstructed what happened. Once the code worked, the hackers launched the real attack across multiple blockchains.
Then I reached the detail that doesn’t feel real. Some of the compromised wallets kept receiving fresh funds from Binance while the hackers were draining them. The attackers emptied a wallet, Binance refilled it, and they emptied it again. For a period of time, the exchange was effectively feeding new money into its own robbery.
Binance co-founder Yi He was at home in Abu Dhabi. She reportedly discovered the breach while scrolling X before bed. Imagine opening Twitter and learning that billions of dollars are disappearing from your own exchange.
Within minutes, Binance assembled a 100 person crisis team. The FBI, the U.S. Secret Service and blockchain analysts around the world joined the response. Meanwhile, some employees were reportedly already worried about losing their annual bonuses.
But the most disturbing detail came later. According to the investigation, the hackers used valid permissions to execute the transfers. To the blockchain, everything looked authorized. There was no transaction labeled “hack” just legitimate-looking operations moving billions out of wallets the system still trusted.
The $6.4 billion heist didn’t begin when billions started moving. It began days earlier with transactions worth a few dollars, too small for anyone to care about.
By the time it looked dangerous, the blockchain was still saying: authorized.

Holy sh*t. Claude Code just found a hidden chip inside my Chinese power bank from Guangzhou. Every time I charged my iPhone, it quietly copied the whole phone…
It also read our saved Wi-Fi password off my iPhone, got onto our home network and sent everything to a server.
I bought it for $19 at an airport kiosk there 3 weeks ago. No brand, 30,000 mAh on the label, and it felt heavy.
The first time I plugged in, the screen asked "Trust This Computer?". I tapped Trust without thinking and went on with my day. That one tap gave it access to everything.
This morning I finally set up Claude Code to warn me when any device starts reading my files. An hour later, 10 seconds into charging, the screen filled with yellow warnings, then red ones: data was moving when it should only be charging.
I asked Claude Code what was going on. My phone saw the power bank as a small computer with 64 GB of storage and its own internet connection.
A USB cable has wires for power and wires for data, and a normal charger only uses the power ones. This one used both, and it had already copied all of this:
→ /device → IMEI and serial number
→ /contacts → 1,206 numbers
→ /apps → every app I have, including my 2 bank apps
→ /photos → 3,912 pictures, my passport among them
→ /wifi → our network name and its key
→ /wife's iPhone → her photos too, she charged from it twice and tapped Trust too
Each time we plugged in, it used that key to get online and send out the new files:
sends to → 47.***.***.12
uploads → 19 in 3 weeks
last one → last night at 2:14, while we slept
I pulled the cable right away. Then Claude Code blocked that address on our router and walked me through changing the Wi-Fi password and the logins for my bank apps.
I had it opened at a repair shop, and what was inside is in the first comment. A 30-second check for your own is in the second one. Save this and test every power bank in your house today.

FIFA should investigate this with immediate effect.
This is totally unacceptable and must not be allowed to go unchallenged🚨

At 7 years old Tweaky Dave was selling heroin for his father. At 9 his father shot him in the stomach and walked away. At 10 he was doing prostitution on Hollywood streets to survive. By 19 he was a heroin addict dying of leukemia and refusing treatment. He died shortly after this interview. Twenty years later his jacket became the center of a fashion controversy involving Kanye West.
He sat on the Jerry Springer Show and told this story like it happened to someone else.
In the video below, Dave walks through a childhood that most people couldn't survive a single week of - and Jerry Springer sits across from him visibly struggling to process what he's hearing.
Dave said he started selling dope for his dad at 7. Said it was the family business. Said he didn't see anything wrong with it at the time.
Then at 9 he kicked open the wrong door. His father was bagging dope with customers in the room. Next thing Dave knew he was on the floor bleeding. His father walked away.
The hooker next door called an ambulance.
Dave ran to Hollywood to become a rock star. Was 9 years old.
The system put him in placements. He ran. They locked him up. He ran again. Trusted nobody. Said cops treated runaways like criminals. Started prostitution at 10 because it was the only way to eat.
Stopped at 16 after watching two friends die of AIDS.
Found a dismembered body in a Beverly Hills dumpster one night. Said it happens all the time.
Asked what keeps him going he said: the 8-year-olds he meets on the street. He doesn't want them to go through ten years of what he went through.
He didn't get much longer to help them.
Is Tweaky Dave a cautionary tale about what happens when every system fails a child, or proof that some people find a reason to keep going no matter what?

Le clash du jour à #PARIS c'est donc les unités de la Préfecture Police qui chargent la foule, au pied des Gendarmes Mobiles qui encadrent le cortège. Certains gendarmes, en colère, se sont défendus à coup de poings. Puis la Police refoulée dans la rue à droite du cortège. Hé ben

''Ouais, juste pour dire que jusqu'à maintenant j'étais graphiste pour l'émission ''C dans l'air'' sur France 5,
Sauf que là ça fait quelques jours que le nom des émissions, parce qu'en fait chaque jour tu as un titre pour l'émission, et le titre qui est choisi là depuis quelques jours c'est ''veillée d'armes'' pour parler des manifestations,
On fait faire des infographies qui montent, par exemple, que 60 % des Français veulent que le mouvement s'arrête avec en dessous marqué en source sondage odoxa le Figaro,
Pendant que dans ce temps-là tu as des milices qui travaillent en coopération avec la police et c'est sourcé avec des articles du Monde ou du Figaro, donc des trucs relativement crédibles pour des journalistes de plateau...
Donc ça m'a cassé les couilles du coup je les ai appelé et je leurs ai dit que je me casse...
J'ai plus de boulot, j'ai plus de boulot,
Mais je préfère être en conformité avec moi-même...''

Piers Morgan CONFRONTS a vegan climate activist Orla Coghlan over almonds and avocados, accusing him of hypocrisy:
“You don’t care about bees being murdered. You’re killing billions of bees and destroying the planet, yet you preach about saving animals!”
His final response? “I’m certainly allowed to eat meat when someone kills bees to feed their avocado habit!”
Piers Morgan: Do you eat almonds? Do you drink almond milk?
Orla Coghlan: I’m here to talk about the climate crisis.
Piers Morgan: Do you eat avocados?
Orla Coghlan: I eat a plant-based diet.
Piers Morgan: Do you eat avocados?
Orla Coghlan: Yes.
Piers Morgan: Great. A leading study says billions of bees are slaughtered so that you can have your almonds and avocados. Why don’t you care about the little guys?
Orla Coghlan: Can I say that there—
Piers Morgan: It’s total hypocrisy, isn’t it? You don’t care about bees being murdered.
Orla Coghlan: Will you let me speak? I’ve been brought on the show to answer your questions.
Piers Morgan: I think you’re a hypocrite, like a lot of vegans I’ve met. You don’t seem to realize that your almonds and avocados involve the slaughter of billions of bees.
Piers Morgan: You believe in the climate crisis?
Orla Coghlan: Yes.
Piers Morgan: Animal agriculture, farming and fishing are leading causes of the climate crisis. But you know what’s also damaging? Planes carrying your avocados and almonds from California thousands of miles to your vegan cafes. You’re killing billions of bees and destroying the planet, yet you sit here preaching about saving animals and the environment!
Orla Coghlan: I hear that you’re very frustrated. I would really like to respond.
Piers Morgan: Go on, then.
Orla Coghlan: A leading study from Oxford, the most comprehensive study on food and climate ever done, says animal products farming animals and fishing are the leading cause.
Piers Morgan: Is a bee an animal?
Orla Coghlan: I’m not finished. It surpasses—
Piers Morgan: Is a bee an animal?
Orla Coghlan: Piers, can I—
Piers Morgan: Of course a bee is an animal! If a bee’s an animal, why are you slaughtering them?
Orla Coghlan: Both almonds and avocados are less damaging to the planet—
Piers Morgan: Oh, they are less damaging! And what about how they get from California? What about the trucks across Europe?
Piers Morgan: I’m starving, and you’re not going to persuade me. My response to you destroying all these things is to have a Big Mac. It’s a free country, it’s a democracy. I’m allowed to eat meat, and I’m certainly allowed to eat meat when someone who kills bees to feed their avocado habit lectures me!

In 2018 Amber Heard wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post describing herself as a survivor of domestic abuse. She never named Johnny Depp. She didn't have to. Disney dropped him from Pirates of the Caribbean.
Warner Bros pushed him out of Fantastic Beasts. The most bankable actor in Hollywood became untouchable overnight.
He had already sued a British tabloid for calling him a "wife beater." And lost.
So he sued Heard for $50 million in Virginia. And this time the trial was streamed live.
In the video below, Heard's lawyer tries to corner Depp about his drinking - and asks him about pouring himself a "mega pint" of wine.
Depp can't stop laughing.
The courtroom laughs with him. Within hours the clip is everywhere.
That was the moment the trial stopped being a trial and became a show. Six weeks. Billions of views on TikTok. Millions of people picking a side from their phones before the jury ever did.
The verdict: Depp won on every claim. The jury awarded him $15 million, later cut to $10.35 million. Heard won $2 million on one of her counterclaims.
Months later they settled. Heard agreed to pay $1 million. Depp said he would give it all to charity.
One judge in London believed her. One jury in Virginia believed him.
Did Johnny Depp win because he told the truth, or because he was simply better at winning over the internet?

Piers Morgan told a law student she was wasting her brain on OnlyFans. She told him she earns about double what he does. Then he asked what her future kids would think. "They can cry in a Ferrari."
Piers spent the whole interview trying to make her regret it. She never stopped smiling.
In the video below, he keeps pushing and she keeps winning.
Her name is Elle Brooke. She was a law student at university in Southampton. She saw how much money other people were earning online and thought: I can do this too. So she dropped out.
Piers tells her she obviously has a great brain. Why pack in a career as a lawyer?
Her answer: she wouldn't have made much as a solicitor anyway. "I earned that in two weeks now."
He asks how much she makes. She asks how much he makes. "Maybe, like, double that."
She won't give a number. Only that she's in the top 0.01% of OnlyFans creators "in monetary terms."
Then he tries family. Surely they're disappointed?
"My dad is dead and my mum is on my payroll."
Doing what? "Admin." Her mum doesn't brag about it at the pub, she says, but she's supportive.
Piers warns her that some people watching will think she sounds awful. She shrugs: "With a little bit of good looks and hard work, you can become a millionaire."
Even Piers admits it: "The bottom line is she's making millions doing what she enjoys doing."
His last shot: in 15 years she'll tell him he was right.
"I'll pick you up in my Bugatti."
Here's what happened after. She later said that interview basically doubled her earnings. And in January 2024 she knocked out AJ Bunker in the third round to win the Misfits Boxing women's middleweight title.
Piers thought he was watching a bright girl throw away a law career. She walked out with a viral clip, by her own account double the income, and within a year a title belt.
The person asking the questions isn't always the one in control.

🔥Iles qui roule sur tout le monde, mais quel plaisir !🔥
- Maxime Switek : Il faut quand même reconnaître le courage qu'elle a eu d'accepter de venir.
- Iles : Mais encore heureux qu'elle soit venue ! C'est notre argent qui la paie, ce n'est pas pour rester planquée à l'Assemblée.
- Yves Thréard en chien de garde (comme d'hab) se lance dans une tentative de sauvetage : " Vous ne pouvez pas dire à une ministre bla bla bla... "
- Iles : Ce n'est pas de la faute d'Emmanuel Macron, ce n'est pas de la faute des élus macronistes... C'est de la faute de qui du coup ?
- Thréard : Un peu de respect.
- Iles : Le respect, ça va dans les deux sens ! Quand il faut 4 semaines de manifestation pour daigner être reçu par le gouvernement, ce n'est pas ce que j'appelle le respect.
- Olga Givernet (Macroniste) : Il y a eu plein de crises.
- Iles : Non non. Les gens dans la rue, la, c'est vous. Vous personnellement, votre gouvernement. Et vous venez nous expliquer, après 10 ans d'un bilan catastrophique : " Il faut faire ça, il faut faire ci. " Soyez humbles !
- Olga : Le manque de respect ne fait pas avancer les choses.
- Iles : Bien dit ! Du coup, vous allez pouvoir aller expliquer ça au gouvernement. RRRRLAAAAAAA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Olga Givernet ? CARTOUCHE !
Yves Thréard ? CARTOUCHE !
Maxime Switek ? CARTOUCHE !
