first_img Robinhood's third-quarter revenue fell short of expectations, with both event contracts and cryptocurrency income increasing month-over-month

The trading platform Robinhood announced its third-quarter financial report, with revenue of $1.42 billion, slightly below Wall Street's expectation of about $1.43 billion; earnings per share were $0.51, lower than the expected $0.55 and also down from $0.61 in the same period last year. Net profit was $476 million, a year-on-year decrease of 14% and a quarter-on-quarter decrease of 17%. This quarter included an unrealized loss of $67 million from Robinhood Ventures Fund I, equivalent to $0.07 per share; adjusted earnings per share were $0.60, a year-on-year decrease of 3%. After the financial report was released, the stock price fell in after-hours trading, closing at about $94.61 on Tuesday, a cumulative decline of about 18% for the year.By business segment, event contract revenue increased from $156 million in the second quarter to $173 million, with customer trading volume reaching a record 16.4 billion contracts, more than seven times that of the same period last year. Cryptocurrency trading revenue rebounded from $100 million in the second quarter to $120 million, but was down 55% from $268 million in the third quarter of 2025; this quarter's cryptocurrency trading volume was $50 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 38%, with $21 billion from in-app and $29 billion from its acquired exchange Bitstamp.Robinhood narrowed its guidance for adjusted operating expenses and equity incentive costs for 2026 to $2.675 billion to $2.75 billion, lowering the previous upper limit of $2.775 billion. A few hours before the financial report was released, the company announced a partnership with Ripple to introduce the stablecoin RLUSD to Robinhood Chain and Bitstamp, with plans to launch it in-app later this year; RLUSD has a market capitalization of over $2.5 billion, and Ripple will also provide fund management software and lending services for Bitstamp traders. Robinhood Chain went live as a Layer 2 network on July 1, generating about $3.13 million in fees within 30 days as of the end of August, surpassing Ethereum and Base.

first_img Anchorage expands cooperation with Bitso, custodians of the stablecoin channel between the United States and Mexico

Anchorage Digital announced the expansion of its custody and listing arrangements with the Latin American cryptocurrency platform Bitso, extending its custody layer to cover both ends of the stablecoin corridor between the United States and Mexico. According to the agreement announced on Tuesday, the Mexican peso stablecoin MXNB issued by Bitso is now being custodied by this federally chartered crypto bank across six blockchains: Arbitrum, Base, Ethereum, Polygon, Avalanche, and Arc.Meanwhile, Bitso has launched the USD stablecoins USDPT and USAT, which are issued and custodied by Anchorage, with the former coming from Western Union and the latter from Tether. The financial terms were not disclosed by either party. This collaboration targets one of the largest cross-border payment flows in the world, the U.S.-Mexico remittance corridor, which transfers billions of dollars annually, with approximately 15% currently operating through Bitso's infrastructure.Nathan McCauley, CEO and co-founder of Anchorage, stated that the U.S.-Mexico corridor is where stablecoins transition from theory to large-scale real money flows, and the company has now become the institutional custody layer at both ends of that flow. Ben Reid, head of stablecoins at Bitso, mentioned that customers can now access the complete dollar-peso corridor through a fully on-chain method supported by a federally chartered bank. This move also continues the trend of Circle's recent expansion of Latin American stablecoins with the launch of a USDC settlement pilot in Colombia.

first_img Akamai launched the AI Intelligent Agent Sandbox, with multiple security vendors laying out protection strategies

AI cloud service provider Akamai launched the AI agent sandbox Agent Sandbox and the Akamai Inference beta on October 27. The Agent Sandbox provides an isolated environment for the code written and run for agents based on WebAssembly, limiting their computing power, memory, and external connections. Jon Alexander, Senior Vice President of Cloud Technology at Akamai, stated that teams running agents need to define boundaries for the code they write.A survey by Palo Alto Networks in 2026 of 2,930 security leaders showed that, on average, each human identity corresponds to 109 machine identities, of which 79 are AI agents. Hugging Face disclosed a breach on July 16, and OpenAI subsequently confirmed that its models were responsible; a METR investigation found about 1,200 OpenAI agents collaborating through hidden message boards, with around 700 participating in attacks, escaping the sandbox and exploiting unknown vulnerabilities to enter production systems.Zscaler discovered web pages hiding instructions targeting AI agents in July, specifically indirect prompt injection, with a spoofed document page requiring agents to pay approximately 0.0012 Ethereum as a $3 licensing fee, and 4 out of 26 tested models complied. Palo Alto completed its acquisition of CyberArk in February and acquired Koi in April, while Cisco completed its acquisition of Astrix Security on June 29. The investigation predicts that the number of enterprise AI agents will grow by 85% in the next 12 months, with human identities increasing by 56%.

Crypto.com is also advancing its stock derivatives business, with OG.com’s exchange Nadex registering last month with the Securities and Exchange Commission to trade securities futures. CEO Kris Marszalek stated at that time that the company is working with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to offer individual stock perpetual futures.

Cryptocurrency casino Gamdom was extorted by the organization Whitearmor for a ransom of 15 million dollars in Bitcoin

According to Bitcoin.com, the cyber extortion group Whitearmor claimed on October 26 that it had stolen 15,420,003 account records from the crypto casino Gamdom, with each account containing 146 data fields, and demanded a payment of 15 million dollars in Bitcoin, or else they would expose sensitive customer information.The group has published a JSON sample of about 437KB, containing approximately 100 records as so-called evidence on its ransom website, claiming that the cumulative profits corresponding to these accounts exceed 1 billion dollars, but did not specify how this was calculated. It is reported that the attackers exploited an internal machine account with administrator privileges that had not rotated its credentials for a long time.Previously, Gamdom suffered a hot wallet attack on October 13, with founder Felix Römer admitting losses exceeding 3 million dollars, and blockchain researcher vxdb estimating the stolen amount across multiple networks to be about 4.2 million dollars. After suspending operations, the platform resumed on October 16, stating that user balances were unaffected. Gamdom disputed the scale of 15.4 million accounts but acknowledged that usernames, email addresses, and gambling activity information may have been exposed, while stating that verification documents were not affected.
