The X (formerly Twitter) account for DeFi protocol Compound Finance has been hacked and is now promoting a fake phishing site, according to security-related X accounts Scam Sniffer and Officer's Notes. 
At 4:57 p.m. UTC, the account posted an advertisement for "free $COMP tokens," urging readers to click a link provided. The link leads to compound-labs.xyz, a website that looks identical to the protocol's official website at compound.finance, but has been identified as a scam site.

Cybersecurity blogger Officer's Notes posted an alert from their account at 5:14 UTC, urging readers to not click on any links in the post.
FYI the @compoundfinance twitter is compromised and posting a scam link!

According to Scam Sniffer's post, the fake phishing site that is being advertised by the hacker is a "Pink Drainer scam website," implying that it is a phishing site that uses the Pink Drainer software to steal users' crypto. The post also states that blockchain investigator ZachXBT has traced funds that have been stolen by the site. The stolen funds have been laundered through the eXch exchange.
This is a developing story, and further information will be added as it becomes available.

Strategy Watch #5

Strategy Watch #5 analyzes institutional digital asset trends in May, highlighting diverging flows. While corporate treasuries continued accumulating Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), spot ETF investors reduced exposure. Market-neutral strategies benefited as CME basis yields turned positive, reviving cash-and-carry trades. A deep dive into DeFi notes that while outflows slowed, total value locked (TVL) continued declining. The report also covers fund performance, on-chain vault yields, manager positioning as cash balances rise, and new institutional expansion initiatives.

Google's 'Reasoning King' Also Departs for Meta, Originally Recruited by Fei-Fei Li

"Google's 'King of Reasoning' Leaves for Meta, Quietly Departing After Over Eight Years. Denny Zhou, a key figure behind Google's AI reasoning advancements including work showcased by CEO Sundar Pichai, has joined Meta's MSL as a research scientist. His low-profile move, discovered via a LinkedIn update, occurred months before the high-profile departures of Noam Shazeer to OpenAI and Nobel laureate John Jumper to Anthropic. Zhou was originally recruited to Google by Fei-Fei Li's China center initiative after nearly 11 years at Microsoft. This is part of a significant talent drain at Google, with top researchers like Shazeer (co-author of the Transformer paper) and Jumper (AlphaFold lead) recently leaving for rivals. Reports suggest internal friction is a contributing factor, particularly around Google's strategic shift. The company has reportedly formed a high-priority 'AI Coding Strike Team,' involving co-founder Sergey Brin, to urgently bridge the gap in AI coding agents, potentially reallocating resources and focus away from other research directions like DeepMind's 'world model' AGI approach. This pivot towards commercially-proven coding applications may have influenced departures, as hinted by Shazeer's comment about his compute allocation being given to another team. Meanwhile, Meta continues to bolster its team, also recently hiring UC Berkeley professor and 'security godmother' Dawn Song, along with her startup Virtue AI team, as a VP of AI research."

How Did Hundreds of Billions of Dollars Flow into SpaceX After Its Index Inclusion on June 26th? Will SpaceX Experience a Massive Price Surge?

Will SpaceX ($SPCX) stock surge when billions in passive index fund money flows in on the effective date? A common retail investor belief is that a massive wave of buying will hit on July 6th, when SpaceX joins the Nasdaq-100, potentially causing a huge price spike. However, the reality is far more complex and less dramatic. The anticipated billions are not controlled by a single entity but are spread across hundreds of passive fund managers (e.g., BlackRock, Vanguard) whose sole mandate is to minimize "tracking error." They aim to buy shares at prices as close as possible to the index's closing price on the effective date, not to aggressively drive the price up. There are two key index inclusion scripts: 1) For the Russell US Index (effective June 26th at close), buying is compressed into the final minutes via Market-On-Close (MOC) orders. 2) For the Nasdaq-100 (announced June 26th, effective July 6th), a 10-day window creates a layered game. Arbitrage funds buy early, betting on selling to passive funds later. Some index funds "front-run" by accumulating shares gradually before the deadline. The bulk of passive funds execute large MOC orders at the July 6th close, often trading directly with arbitrageurs. A critical wildcard is SpaceX's limited free float due to a standard 180-day post-IPO lockup. To avoid causing a massive price spike by competing for scarce shares on the open market, large funds will likely use off-exchange methods: 1) Negotiating large block trades (over-the-counter) with major holders. 2) Using derivatives like total return swaps with locked-up shareholders to gain economic exposure without physically buying the stock. Most of the index-driven buying will thus happen invisibly, not on public exchanges. For retail investors, trying to front-run these sophisticated flows is risky. More viable strategies include: waiting for post-inclusion volatility to subside before establishing a long-term position, or employing options strategies like selling strangles to profit from elevated, but potentially overstated, implied volatility around the event. In conclusion, while price appreciation may occur in the days following the announcement due to arbitrage and front-running activity, a single-day "explosive pump" on July 6th is highly unlikely. The major index fund buying will be executed efficiently and discreetly, often away from public markets, turning the anticipated climax into a well-orchestrated, anti-climactic settlement.

Toss Brings 30 Million Users Into the AI Data Economy in Partnership With Poseidon

Poseidon, a data infrastructure company for AI, has partnered with South Korean mobile financial platform Toss (operated by Viva Republica) to integrate its contributor app, Numo, into the Toss app. This partnership allows Toss's approximately 30 million users to contribute real-world voice, image, and video data for AI training and receive direct payment for their contributions. The initiative addresses the AI industry's growing need for high-quality, first-person data not available on the open web, crucial for developing physical intelligence in robotics and autonomous vehicles. Poseidon's infrastructure tracks each contribution's value, while Toss handles user payments. Contributions are registered on the DATA network, which provides verifiable provenance via its Trace audit layer. The partners aim to prove this user-compensated data model in South Korea—a market with dense real-life data and advanced mobile finance—before expanding globally. Poseidon recently raised a $15 million seed round led by Andreessen Horowitz.

0.7nm Process Chip Emerges, Moore's Law Lives On

IBM has unveiled the world's first sub-1-nanometer (0.7nm) chip technology, integrating nearly 100 billion transistors into an area the size of a fingernail. This breakthrough doubles the transistor density of current 2nm chips and promises a 50% performance gain or a 70% improvement in power efficiency. The achievement is powered by IBM's "NanoStack" architecture, a pioneering 3D design featuring vertically stacked nanosheet transistors. This evolution from FinFET and Gate-All-Around (GAA) technologies offers superior electrostatic control. IBM has demonstrated the technology's viability with functional CMOS inverters and a 40% area reduction in SRAM, crucial for AI chip data bandwidth. Addressing the critical power consumption challenges in AI computing, this advancement extends the roadmap for chip miniaturization. While IBM does not manufacture chips itself, it licenses its process technology to partners. The company projects that NanoStack-based chips could enter production within the next five years, potentially sustaining Moore's Law for another decade.
