The team has no intention of launching new tokens but hopes to help build a future that allows the strongest communities to continue to grow and thrive.Se Yong Park had previously denied that Fomo plans to launch a Solana ecosystem token issuance platform and stated that the team has no intention of competing with Pump.fun through related products.

Cross-chain trading application Fomo recently announced the official public launch of its self-built internal cross-chain bridge (Fomo Bridge) and router. Official data shows that after integrating the self-built system, its cross-chain transaction confirmation time is less than 1 second, and the transaction execution speed is 50% faster than existing market solutions.Fomo stated that its internal router can average optimize execution prices by 0.5% and optimize the worst-performing 10% of transactions by over 2%. Currently, Fomo's cross-chain trading volume is more than 10 times that of other trading applications. As a large cross-chain trading application that possesses both a cross-chain bridge and routing system, Fomo has thus gained control over the entire trading stack, including pricing, indexing, bridging, and routing, ensuring that users can still achieve a fast and low-cost trading experience even in extreme market conditions.

Crypto KOL Qwerty posted that he plans to take a break for a while. He mentioned that he has started to treat trading as a role-playing game, playing the role of Qwerty, and he no longer feels like himself while trading.Qwerty stated that he has emptied all public wallets and will not be active for a long time.

According to Decrypt, the controversial promoter Sahil Arora, who launched a series of celebrity meme coins in 2024, is back at it again. His latest issuance, the Floyd Money Mayweather token, has been launched on the Solana trading platform Fomo, and Mayweather's social media account once promoted it. The token's market cap peaked at $1 million, but then plummeted 96% within three hours on Wednesday. According to information from various social media accounts, before Mayweather's account deleted the promotional post, the deployer's wallet had only cashed out about $5,000 in profit, and the token subsequently surged to a market cap peak of $1 million.Arora told Decrypt that the entire scheme was carefully planned, and the narrative of Mayweather missing out on profits actually drove up the token price. Fomo integrates social media elements, allowing users to see who is buying and selling, making it easy to create viral spread. Arora claims to have made seven figures in profit on the Mayweather token through other wallets, but on-chain analysis firm Bubblemaps believes this is unrealistic: the largest associated wallet cluster made about $105,000 in profit, and the top 100 traders collectively made only $306,000 in profit.Arora stated that he will replicate all his operations from 2024 on Pump.fun on Fomo, but with better strategies to allow participants to profit as well. He claims to have close relationships with all collaborating celebrities, making it very easy to persuade them to participate.

According to Slow Mist's Yu Xian monitoring, phishing attacks targeting FOMO's web bookmarks are emerging.Such phishing webpages lure users into completing fake human verification, dragging malicious JavaScript code into the browser's favorites and saving it as a bookmark. After the user clicks on this bookmark 2 to 3 times, the previously logged-in FOMO account will be hijacked by the attacker, and the encrypted assets within the account will be immediately stolen.

According to a report by Arkham, a user on the Fomo platform, "scout," invested $12,700 in ZCAT five weeks ago when its market value was $127,000.

According to Darkfost's analysis, during the recent rise of Bitcoin, Binance's BTC funds have primarily been flowing out, with an average net outflow of about 2,000 BTC per day over the past week. Among them, Binance experienced a single-day net outflow of over 13,800 BTC, setting the record for the largest single-day net outflow in 2023.In the past 4 days, the platform's BTC reserves have decreased from about 705,000 to 685,000, a reduction of approximately 20,000 BTC. Darkfost stated that the continuous outflow of BTC from exchanges usually indicates that some investors are choosing to transfer their assets to self-custody, which may correspond to a longer-term holding behavior while reducing potential selling pressure on the exchange. He believes that the recent large-scale outflow may reflect the FOMO sentiment of investors who had previously been waiting for Bitcoin to drop further.

According to Bitcoin Magazine, CoinRoutes co-founder Dave Weisberger stated in a video interview with Bitcoin Magazine that the biggest unreleased factor for Bitcoin is not ETFs or corporate hoarding, but rather collateral treatment. He pointed out that banks face a nearly 100% discount when holding Bitcoin, and once Bitcoin is treated like other assets based on volatility and liquidity, the situation for lending institutions and companies like Strategy Inc (formerly MicroStrategy) will change.Weisberger referred to this adjustment as the "final hurdle" and mentioned that both the Basel Committee and regulators believe this change is inevitable, but it has not yet been fully realized. He also discussed topics such as asset tokenization, Hyperliquid, and Federal Reserve policies, believing that Wall Street is providing support for related directions under the trend of tokenization.He further stated that the influx of ETF funds has reduced Bitcoin's volatility; every 25 basis points change in interest rates adds $100 billion to the U.S. fiscal deficit; Bitcoin still possesses asymmetric option characteristics, and the issue of "clean collateral" has not been resolved, so market FOMO sentiment has not truly begun.

Slow Mist's Yuxian posted on platform X, stating that the related application is FomoPeek, and Slow Mist has never referred to it as the FOMO App. Overseas related security KOLs and media have misrepresented this.

Malicious iOS application FomoPeek has been found to contain multiple kernel exploit modules that can bypass Apple's sandbox and access sensitive wallet data from other applications, and is linked to a theft incident involving nearly $580,000 in cryptocurrency assets. Blockchain security company SlowMist stated that the application is distributed through the Apple App Store. The company noted that the affected versions were released on September 9 and September 12, and the application contains two malicious modules that can gain higher privileges and access Keychain data and files from other applications.Version 1.3, released on September 17, has removed the related malicious components. SlowMist and the OKX security team investigated and found that the related attack framework includes 8 types of attack methods, supporting iOS versions 12 to 18.7.2 and 26 to 26.1. On-chain analysis shows that a hacker address related to the incident received approximately 580,000 USDT, and the funds were subsequently transferred through multiple addresses and services, with some flowing to FixedFloat, KuCoin, and cce.cash.

According to Bitcoin News monitoring, security researchers have found that versions 1.1 and 1.2 of FomoPeek distributed through the Apple App Store contain an iOS exploit framework that can escape the application sandbox, capable of extracting keychain data, wallet files, and mnemonic phrases. SlowMist has linked this application to multiple theft incidents and traced nearly $580,000 worth of stolen USDT flowing into a main address.Users who have installed either version should consider the keys accessible on their iPhone as compromised, generate new mnemonic phrases on a clean device, and immediately transfer their funds.

The founder of Slow Fog, Yu Xian, disclosed that following the previous FomoPeek App poisoning and theft incident, a food delivery app named ComeCome (comecome.icu) has been found to implement attacks using similar methods. FomoPeek versions v1.1-1.2 contain a malicious SDK that integrates 8 types of iOS kernel exploit schemes, which can automatically select attack methods based on device model and system version. The known affected iOS versions cover iOS 12--18.7 and 26--26.1.After a successful attack, it can break through the iOS sandbox mechanism, thereby stealing assets from cryptocurrency wallets. Yu Xian warned that such threats may also affect iPad and Mac devices, and advised users to immediately update to the latest iOS version and remain highly vigilant against apps from unknown sources.

According to monitoring and analysis by the Gate security team, the FomoPeek App contains malicious code with a high security risk, which may exploit vulnerabilities related to the iOS system to attack other apps, and has dangerous operations such as accessing the clipboard, scanning sensitive data on the phone, and obtaining login credentials. After analysis by the security team, no attack losses caused by the FomoPeek App have been found in the Gate App or among users, and the existing risk control mechanisms of Gate are operating normally.Gate reminds users to upgrade their iOS system to the latest version as soon as possible and check whether the FomoPeek App is installed on their devices. If it is installed, please uninstall it immediately and restart the phone. After completing this, it is recommended to log back into the Gate App and other important applications; if using a Web3 wallet, it is advisable to check the wallet's security status in a timely manner and transfer relevant assets if necessary to reduce potential security risks.

Binance Wallet Security Announcement: iPhone users please check if you have installed the FomoPeek application. Binance has noted a recent security incident disclosed by the community. According to security companies such as SlowMist, the third-party application FomoPeek (versions 1.1-1.2) contains malicious code that can exploit vulnerabilities in the iOS system to gain maximum permissions on the device and may access sensitive data stored on the device, including private keys, mnemonic phrases, login credentials, chat records, files, etc. Please note that such malware directly attacks the device itself. If the attack is successful, all application data on the affected device may be accessed.Please check the following:Are you using an iPhone or iPad running iOS 26.x or earlier?Have you installed the FomoPeek application?If both of the above apply to you, it is recommended to take the following steps immediately:Delete the FomoPeek application and do not reinstall it.Update the iOS system to the latest version.For users with self-hosted wallets: Create a new wallet on a device that has never installed the application and transfer assets to the new wallet address.If you notice any unusual asset activity, please retain the affected device and relevant evidence, and contact customer service for further investigation.At the same time, all users are reminded: Do not install applications from untrusted sources and keep your device software up to date.

SlowMist released a security warning stating that it has recently received multiple reports of FomoPeek users' assets being stolen. After a joint investigation with the OKX security team, it was found that some affected users had previously installed or used FomoPeek versions 1.1 to 1.2, which contained malicious code. SlowMist stated that there are modules in FomoPeek unrelated to normal business, one of which includes a kernel exploit framework targeting the iOS system, supporting eight different attack methods that can automatically select the exploitation method based on device model and iOS version. Affected systems include iOS 12 to 18.7 and iOS 26 to 26.1. If the exploitation is successful, the application may break through the iOS sandbox and access and decrypt Keychain data, leading to the leakage of private keys, mnemonic phrases, login credentials, and other sensitive files. In addition, FomoPeek also connects to hidden servers unrelated to its public services and can receive remote commands. SlowMist indicated that its analysis of captured plaintext traffic shows that the related attack functions are currently enabled and will run automatically on a regular basis. SlowMist recommends that users who have installed or used FomoPeek versions 1.1 to 1.2 immediately check for any anomalies in their assets, generate new private keys and mnemonic phrases on trusted devices that have never installed the application, and transfer assets to new accounts as soon as possible, while also upgrading to the latest iOS version and not continuing to use or reinstall FomoPeek.

According to Lookonchain monitoring, Bonk Guy's portfolio has appreciated by approximately 2.5 million dollars in the past 24 hours, with total assets exceeding 19 million dollars.Currently, it has returned to the top position on the FOMO platform's 24-hour leaderboard and has ranked first on the historical overall leaderboard for a consecutive month.
