Crypto Emergency

I want to tell you about a tool that my team and I tested, and which—no fear to say it—turns everything upside down. It’s called Astro—this is GPT. And what it does is no longer science fiction, but a new reality that’s right there under your hands right now.
Earlier, to write a game—shooter, flying, or any game with great graphics—you needed a whole team. A technical specification, developers, QA testers. Many people, lots of money. And trust my experience: during the testing stage, something inevitably went wrong; all of that turned into extra expenses and stress. Now with Astro you create such a game and release it—it’s already adapted for both the mobile version and the browser, everything works. And it costs no more than five thousand rubles. The main thing is to say correctly what you want. If something doesn’t work the first time, you see the flaws—you just tell it by voice what to fix, and everything gets fixed.

From the closures of exchanges, from problems at major platforms, from a string of hacks. Then it sounded radical. And now we’re looking at it live, in real time.
Bitget has officially confirmed the hack. The amount of funds affected is about $351.6 million; transfers were made from part of the hot wallets. Cold wallets, according to the exchange, were not affected. Withdrawals are temporarily paused, while deposits and trading are operating. Bitget CEO Gracy Chen said that private keys were not compromised—the attackers gained access to internal infrastructure and initiated transfers that the system interpreted as legitimate. The exchange says the damage will be covered by the protection fund, whose size is more than $464 million, so for them it’s likely not a critical amount. But the fact itself is telling: if an attack is happening not through cryptography but through internal processes, then a centralized exchange is vulnerable by definition. Fully protecting against something like this is practically impossible.

Many have heard about thirty seconds. The phrase circulates through lectures, quote compilations, and conversations. The brain makes a decision thirty seconds before the person becomes aware of it. It sounds like a verdict—as if someone knows in advance what you’ll do, and you’re just walking along the tracks.
