A roughly $5.15 million outflow from US spot XRP exchange-traded products on Sept. 17 interrupted a $192 million inflow month. The reversal creates the first clean test of whether recent demand is cooling, yet the broader flow pattern still favors the buyers. Maketo’s five-fund series remained about $10 million positive for the rolling week through Sept. 17. Its rolling month contained 16 inflow days and two outflow days, and Canary Capital’s official fund table showed that only part of the daily reversal coincided with a confirmed contraction in shares. The base case is a narrow, one-session reset inside a positive…
Anthropic’s Claude helped three security researchers breach OpenAI accounts and reach an internal code repository within 72 hours.Researchers at cybersecurity startup Hacktron chained an image-processing vulnerability with a flaw in OpenAI’s identity infrastructure in July to gain access to multiple employees’ ChatGPT and Codex accounts.One compromised Codex account was connected to OpenAI’s GitHub organization, giving the researchers a path into the company’s internal software environment.The team stopped after instructing the compromised employee’s Codex account to create a harmless pull request inside OpenAI’s private openai/openai monorepo. Hacktron said the researchers did not inspect proprietary source code.This week, Hacktron disclosed the vulnerabilities…
Bitcoin’s rebound above $80,000 on Sept. 18 extended a technology-led relief rally. The move coincided with yen weakness and followed a return to Bitcoin ETF inflows the previous day. The advance was already underway in European trading, hours before weak US economic figures offered a possible argument against further monetary tightening.At press time, Bitcoin traded at $80,856, up 5.60% over 24 hours. The clearest explanation is a broader relief rally with an improving, but still tentative, demand signal. The timing points to a recovery in risk appetite, although it does not identify one decisive trigger.Dow Jones reported Bitcoin at $78,309,…
The Bank of England has committed to remove £368 billion of gilts held for monetary-policy purposes by September 2034, even as the first market response pointed toward easier conditions in long-dated UK debt.The figure covers the portfolio left after the Bank separated £120 billion of longer-dated gilts to back banknotes. The Monetary Policy Committee said the remaining stock will fall by an average £46 billion a year through bond maturities and £20 billion of annual active sales.Quantitative tightening shifts bonds from a central bank’s balance sheet toward private investors. That can lift the extra yield investors demand to hold longer-dated…
The Bank of Japan announced a policy-rate increase to about 1.25% on Sept. 18, yet the visible Bitcoin and currency response showed limited signs of a disorderly yen-carry unwind.The BOJ voted 7-2 to lift its target for the uncollateralized overnight call rate by 25 basis points, from about 1% to about 1.25%. The new target and related facility rates take effect Sept. 24, so the decision changed the policy path before it changed the official operating rates.That separates a scheduled funding-cost change from the market’s reaction to the announcement. Positions can adjust before implementation, and the BOJ’s next signal could…

A routine Radix code refactor created a vault flaw that enabled a roughly $1.3 million theft and later forced validators to halt the blockchain.The Radix Foundation said Sept. 17 that an RDX Works development team introduced the defect during a June 2023 cleanup of the Radix Engine, the software layer that executes transactions and enforces asset ownership across the network. The vulnerability remained undetected for more than three years before an attacker exploited it on Aug. 31.A community reconstruction of the ledger shows the attacker withdrew about 458,915 USDC, 72,420 USDT, 61.08 ETH, 6.35 wrapped Bitcoin, 536.16 SOL and 32.91…
