To ensure user experience, the team has urgently expanded the Hy4 inference cluster tenfold and increased the free usage quota for users, and will continue to dynamically allocate resources.Due to the limitations of high-end computing power and peak concurrency concentration, it is still possible that quota situations may continue to occur during certain periods.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated in an interview that there has been a concerning trend in the industry's security situation over the past period. Security vulnerabilities and attack incidents at the smart contract level are decreasing, while most major hacking attacks that occurred in the past year and a half have been more focused on the user interface layer and centralized components. Hacking attacks are still ongoing, but the underlying core parts that truly need to be secured are actually improving in security, and the range of infrastructure that can provide high security guarantees is also expanding.Vitalik believes that more and more people have realized that the top priority in the next two years is not to achieve victory, but to ensure their survival, and the entire industry is thinking about how to achieve this goal. He expects that relevant institutions, large trading platforms, custodians, and other financial institutions will also take action as soon as possible. He believes that Binance's previous launch of BNB Chain was a correct decision, as users deploying their business on-chain and executing related operations through smart contracts can also benefit from the high security guarantees provided by on-chain infrastructure, and more institutions will develop in this direction in the future.Vitalik stated that the only real solution is to effectively raise the security level of the entire industry. The range of operations that can be completed securely is expanding, but if someone does not pay attention to security, the efficiency gains may ultimately be used to conduct more and more aggressive business, rather than further enhancing security. He anticipates that if security issues develop to a certain extent, regulatory agencies and industry leaders in various countries will begin to require companies to take on more responsibility and adopt more prudent business strategies. The Ethereum Foundation has been providing support, including writing relevant code and tools, providing quantum-safe signature-related code, and supporting the construction of wallets protected by quantum-safe technology, but users still need to actively be aware of risks and choose to enable these security measures.

According to Bloomberg, due to ongoing labor disputes with employee unions, Micron Technology has essentially suspended its plans to build a new storage chip factory in Taoyuan, Taiwan, with a project investment budget of $3 billion to $4.5 billion, originally scheduled to start production in 2028. Sources indicate that Micron is concerned that the agreement reached with the union may be overturned, and currently only a small amount of site safety maintenance work is being retained, after which construction will be frozen.The dispute arises from employees' demands to share the profit growth brought by the AI boom. The Taoyuan union is requesting that Micron distribute 15% of its operating profits to global employees and hopes to receive a full cash bonus rather than a portion in stock. Although Micron reached an agreement with the larger Taichung union in October, some employees are dissatisfied with the terms of the agreement, and the Taoyuan union is attempting to expand its organization to push for renegotiation.The project was originally planned to produce high-bandwidth memory (HBM) and DRAM using ASML's advanced equipment. Taiwan currently contributes about 60% of Micron's DRAM output and is also an important production base for HBM, employing approximately 15,000 people. Micron responded that the company's existing operations in Taiwan are normal and will ensure business continuity for customers, but did not directly comment on the suspension of the Taoyuan project. Taiwan's economic department stated that the government will assist Micron in resolving differences with the union and promote the implementation of the investment plan.

Crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett posted on social media that, according to three industry insiders who spoke with Democratic staffers, House Democrats are discussing a plan to expand the "Crypto Investor and Consumer Rights Act" into a broader crypto market structure bill for the next Congress. This bill is an amendment to the "CLARITY Act" proposed by Congresswoman Maxine Waters in 2025.The proposal will incorporate provisions from the Democratic "CLARITY Act" that Waters initially introduced in the House but did not pass, as well as terms agreed upon by Senate Democrats and Republicans before the procedural vote in September.
