The largest players in the Web3 market have conducted a coordinated campaign to inform investors amid a large-scale internet security crisis. Today, the team behind the Trust Wallet crypto wallet put an end to the growing speculation, officially declaring the complete security of its infrastructure in the face of the critical PHP Shell vulnerability and the potential consequences of this incident.
Trust Wallet clarifies it does not use PHP following a global security alarm, Source: Trust Wallet via X.comThe day before, on October 21, the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA Cyber) issued an emergency warning for organizations using PHP. Two critical flaws were discovered in the core of the language, CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, allowing hackers to execute arbitrary code on a server remotely and without authentication (unauthenticated RCE).

Since a significant part of the classic internet runs on PHP (including WordPress platforms and systems running PHP-FPM), millions of web resources were put at risk. PHP developers promptly released security patches (in versions 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36, and 8.2.35), but the panic also affected the cryptocurrency sector, where users are sensitive to any infrastructure risks and to a possible echo of this crisis.
Developers say the panic is unwarrantedTo stop the spread of rumors and completely eliminate speculation around the vulnerability (PHP exploit fallout), Trust Wallet published an official statement on X. In the post, the team directly stated that its applications and key infrastructure are not related to PHP, so the incident does not affect the wallet's clients in any way.
The technology stack of decentralized wallets is isolated from the PHP architecture, so the company's move was preventive. Earlier, similar statements about the absence of PHP in their ecosystems were issued by representatives of BNB Chain and the decentralized exchange PancakeSwap.

The situation was noted by Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ), who published a series of posts. He emphasized that most projects should at least publish such confirmations, since silence during global IT outages only gives rise to false rumors and sows panic among users.
No crypto wallet is 100% safe. No software is bug free. No tech is 100% secure. There are risks in everything you do. There are risks if you don't do anything. There will be issues, setbacks and problems to solve. Stay up-to-date. Manage risks. Solve problems.
— CZ 🔶 BNB (@cz_binance) October 22, 2026 At the moment, the only threat to cryptocurrency holders remains the possible activation of phishers, who may use the news backdrop around the vulnerability to send out malicious "security updates."
Trust Wallet just got lighter. The self-custody app says it has removed nine years of accumulated code, shrinking the app by 200 MB.
The company isn’t done, either. More code cuts are planned, which suggests this is the opening act of a longer cleanup, not a one-off spring clean.
What Trust Wallet actually removed The October 19, 2026 announcement covered legacy code, outdated technology stacks and unnecessary dependencies. Those three categories add up to roughly 200 MB of reclaimed space.
Trust Wallet describes the work as “behind-the-scenes” refactoring. Refactoring means restructuring existing code without changing what the app does for the user. The wallet should behave the same. It just carries less baggage under the hood.
CEO Felix Fan pointed to further optimizations aimed at performance and efficiency. He also offered a memorable description of what it’s like to rework a live product used by millions.
“Making jet engine changes in-flight.”
For reference, around mid-October 2026, before the optimization work, the Android version of the app sat at about 160 MB. The iOS version was around 250 MB.
The second round of trimming this fall The code purge is not happening in isolation. On September 15, 2026, Trust Wallet dropped native support for 25 lower-activity blockchain networks.
The stated goal was to let the company focus its engineering resources more tightly. Fewer networks to maintain means fewer integrations to update, test and secure.
Crucially, users on those networks were not locked out of their funds. Assets stay accessible through recovery phrases, the string of words that acts as the master key to a self-custody wallet.
Nine years of technical debt Trust Wallet has a long history by crypto standards. Binance acquired it in 2018, and it has kept growing since.
The app now supports over 100 blockchains. It also claims more than 200 million downloads, a user base that makes any structural change high stakes.
What this means for users and the wallet market For everyday users, the most obvious benefit is practical. A smaller app takes up less storage and could load and update faster, which matters on older phones or devices with limited space.
The security angle may be the more important one. In general, less code means fewer places for bugs to hide. Security researchers call this the attack surface, the total set of entry points an attacker could probe. Every outdated dependency is a potential weak link, and removing unused ones could reduce risk without users lifting a finger.
The trade-off showed up in September. Users of the 25 dropped networks lost native support and had to rely on recovery phrases if they wanted continued access through other tools.
What to watch next is the follow-through. Fan has flagged more optimizations, and the company has promised further code cuts.

CZ posted on X that users should prioritize asset security (SAFU), adding that he does not oppose hardware wallets or self-custody. He pointed out that different wallets and products suit different use cases, with distinct security implications and best practices. YZi Labs has invested in hardware wallet projects including OneKey and SafePal, as well as mobile wallet products such as Trust Wallet.
Crypto holders with older iPhone devices may be in danger of having their crypto stolen, as a dangerous hacking kit is still targeting popular crypto wallets.
The dangerous DarkSword exploit is still being used to deploy the Coruna malware to steal crucial data from crypto wallets, as per cybersecurity experts from Censys.
The experts found several servers hosting the directories for deploying these malicious tools, which indicates that the threat is still very much active (months after the exploits were discovered).
HOT Stories
The hacking kit itself exploits vulnerabilities in Apple's WebKit and JavaScriptCore components, which allows hackers to target vulnerable iPhone devices to access sensitive data.
After hacking into the device, the Coruna malware can then focus on crypto wallets to try and steal information that can give hackers access to your funds.
The affected crypto wallet apps include Coinbase, MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Phantom, Exodus, Uniswap, Bitpie, imToken, and OKEx.

The threat isn't limited to wallet apps. According to Censys, the malware can also scan through your photos and notes on infected devices to look for BIP39 recovery phrases.
These phrases are highly valuable to cybercriminals, as they can be used to recover crypto wallets, giving the criminals potential access to your crypto holdings even if they don't have access to your device.
How to protect your crypto Thankfully, Apple has already fixed the vulnerabilities exploited by DarkSword.
All known security vulnerabilities used by the hacking kit have already been patched in iOS 26.3, as per Macworld.
There is a possibility that older iPhone devices running iOS 26.2 and below (including older versions of iOS 18) could still be vulnerable to the attack, if they haven't been updated with the required security fixes.
Therefore, crypto holders are being advised to ensure that their devices are up to date to minimise the risk of being targeted by these attacks.
Buying crypto inside a self-custody wallet just got a lot less like a scavenger hunt. Trust Wallet has integrated MoonPay Headless into its app, letting US users purchase crypto with cards or Apple Pay without ever leaving the Trust Wallet interface.
The feature went live on October 7, 2026.
What actually changed The core shift is about where the purchase happens. Previously, buying crypto through a wallet often meant getting handed off to a third-party checkout page. Now the entire flow stays inside Trust Wallet.
MoonPay provides the payment and compliance plumbing in the background, while Trust Wallet controls what the user sees on screen.
US users can pay with debit or credit cards, or with Apple Pay. They can also save their preferred payment methods and link a MoonPay account, which makes repeat transactions faster.

A partnership that has been building since 2020 Trust Wallet and MoonPay started working together in 2020, when MoonPay was plugged in as an on-ramp, the industry term for a service that converts regular money into crypto.
The relationship got more formal on August 14, 2025. That is when the two companies signed a strategic agreement making MoonPay the primary provider behind Trust Wallet’s “Buy Crypto” function.
Trust Wallet’s Eowyn Chen pointed to the years of collaboration between the two firms as the foundation for a better transaction experience. MoonPay’s Ivan Soto-Wright framed the deal as a strategic alignment focused on usability and scalability.
MoonPay has been busy In early September 2026, the company added Cash App Pay as a payment option through its platform.
Then on September 24, 2026, MoonPay Trade went live. The product supports cross-chain swaps across seven blockchains, meaning users can trade assets that live on different networks without manually bridging them.
MoonPay’s infrastructure also operates in more than 190 countries and supports a range of local payment methods.
Why scale makes this a bigger deal Trust Wallet reportedly has around 200 million users worldwide. Even small improvements to the purchase flow can add up quickly at that size.
Self-custody wallets offer control over your own keys, but they have historically lagged centralized exchanges on convenience. The Headless integration addresses that gap by keeping the entire purchase flow inside the wallet without surrendering the self-custody model.
What this means There are trade-offs worth watching. Concentrating the “Buy Crypto” function around a single primary provider simplifies the experience, but it also ties a large share of a wallet’s fiat activity to one partner’s pricing, uptime and regulatory standing.
The launch is also US-specific for now. How quickly the Headless experience expands to other markets, and whether newer MoonPay features such as cross-chain trading show up natively inside Trust Wallet, will signal how far this partnership is meant to go.

@MoonPay has gone live as a fiat on-ramp inside @TrustWallet, giving United States-based users a way to fund their wallets with debit cards or Apple Pay without ever leaving the app.
What Has Changed The integration relies on @MoonPay's headless API, which means the entire purchase flow stays within the Trust Wallet interface.
KYC verification, payment storage, and asset delivery all happen natively inside the app, removing the friction of web redirects that have historically disrupted checkout flows.
The Broader Context The latest rollout upgrades that relationship by adopting the headless architecture @MoonPay launched in May 2026.
From a regulatory standpoint, the infrastructure carries meaningful compliance coverage.
For Trust Wallet users in the US, the practical effect is straightforward: buying crypto now requires fewer steps, no browser handoffs, and no need to re-enter payment details on repeat purchases. The move reflects a broader industry push to reduce the gap between traditional payment habits and on-chain activity.

Crypto Briefing: Trust Wallet integrates MoonPay so US users can buy crypto without leaving the app
PR Newswire: MoonPay Launches Headless Onramps (official press release)
Genfinity: MoonPay Headless Onramps With Apple Pay and Google Pay
Trust Wallet is excited to announce the integration of MoonPay Headless, bringing a native crypto purchasing experience to users in the United States.
The integration makes it easier for users to buy crypto without having to navigate between different apps or repeat the same setup process every time they make a purchase. Users can connect their MoonPay account once and continue buying crypto through the Trust Wallet experience they already know.
A simpler way to buy crypto in Trust Wallet
The new integration streamlines the journey from choosing an asset to getting crypto into your wallet. Users can buy crypto with familiar payment methods, including:
Cards
Apple Pay
For repeat purchases, users can also save their preferred payment card, similar to how cards are saved in other everyday apps. Saved cards can be selected for future purchases, while users can add or remove cards whenever they choose.
This means less time entering payment details and a simpler way to fund your wallet whenever you need to buy crypto.
A native experience powered by MoonPay MoonPay Headless provides the payment infrastructure behind the experience, while Trust Wallet maintains a native interface within its app.
MoonPay handles the underlying payment rails, compliance, and payment method coverage, allowing Trust Wallet to focus on delivering an experience built around its users. Trust Wallet does not process payments or hold user funds. Purchased crypto goes directly to your self-custodial wallet, where only you control your private keys.
For Trust Wallet users, the result is a more streamlined way to go from fiat to crypto, with fewer steps and a familiar payment experience.
The integration is now live for Trust Wallet users in the United States, with availability in additional regions planned for the future.

TWT Info Trust Wallet is a multichain mobile application designed to provide users with seamless access to various blockchains and their associated transactions and Decentralized Applications (DApps). Unlike its browser-based counterparts, Trust Wallet facilitates instant accessibility to multiple blockchains upon installation, eliminating the need for manual blockchain-specific configurations.
Upon installation, users are granted full control over their seed phrase, underlining the non-custodial nature of Trust Wallet. This design prioritizes user security and asset ownership. Within the wallet, users can store and visualize NFTs from both Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain. In addition to its storage capacities, Trust Wallet also incorporates an integrated DApp browser, enhancing its functionality. Further diversifying its features, Trust Wallet allows for in-app staking, asset swapping across-chains facilitated by platforms like Binance DEX and 1inch, and direct cryptocurrency purchases using various fiat on-ramps.
Functioning as a governance token within the ecosystem, the Trust Wallet Token (TWT) empowers its holders with decision-making capabilities regarding the app’s developmental trajectory. Through TWT, users can both propose and vote on pivotal updates, new features, and essential changes, reinforcing a community-driven approach to Trust Wallet’s evolution.
Trust Wallet announced via an official post that it has become the inaugural partner of Ondo’s Incentive Program (OIP). Users who swapped or held Ondo RWA assets through Trust Wallet this year can check their eligibility for rewards; qualified users may claim BLKH tokens on BNB Chain. Full eligibility criteria and claim details are available on Trust Wallet’s official page.
Trust Wallet users can now execute cross-chain trades directly inside the app, thanks to a new integration with MoonPay Trade that went live on September 24. The feature enables non-custodial swaps across multiple blockchains without funds ever touching an intermediary, a meaningful upgrade from the fiat on-ramp services MoonPay previously provided within the wallet.
MoonPay Trade launched on May 21 as a cross-chain execution platform, built partly on technology acquired from Decent.xyz. The platform functions as a single API capable of routing transactions across more than 200 blockchain protocols and chains. The Trust Wallet integration doesn’t ship with all 200-plus chains out of the gate, though. At launch, seven blockchains are supported, including heavyweights like Ethereum and Bitcoin alongside newer networks such as Base and Arc.
The non-custodial piece matters here. Users review swap routes and sign transactions directly within Trust Wallet, meaning their crypto never passes through MoonPay’s hands. MoonPay Trade also promises deeper liquidity pools and faster settlement times compared to what Trust Wallet users had access to before.
MoonPay and Trust Wallet first began working together in 2020, when MoonPay provided fiat on-ramp and off-ramp services that let Trust Wallet users buy crypto with traditional payment methods. That relationship expanded in 2023, and eventually the two companies formalized a multi-year strategic partnership on August 14, 2025. The August 2025 deal specifically shifted the focus from fiat services to trading and swaps.
Trust Wallet isn’t MoonPay Trade’s first wallet integration, either. A similar deal with Ledger launched in June, meaning MoonPay is methodically embedding its trading infrastructure into the places where self-custody users already spend their time.
MoonPay Trade’s approach of abstracting cross-chain complexity behind a single execution layer is part of a broader industry trend toward chain abstraction. The difference here is that MoonPay is packaging that abstraction as an embeddable service for wallet providers rather than building a consumer-facing product.
With seven chains supported at launch and infrastructure capable of handling over 200, the obvious next question is how quickly MoonPay and Trust Wallet expand coverage.

The biggest risk in a crypto presale purchase is often a fake link or unsafe transaction, not the wallet itself. A copied website can look real, and a rushed approval can give a malicious contract access that a buyer never intended to grant.
Trust Wallet users should verify the official website, contract details, and transaction request before funding MemeToro or any other presale.
Start With The Official Website, Not A Social Link Open the MemeToro website by typing or bookmarking the official address. Do not rely on links sent through private messages, search ads, comments, or accounts claiming to be support.
Compare the page with official project channels and the public GitHub repository where possible. A real crypto presale page should clearly show the purchase route, supported assets, and current stage terms.
Before connecting Trust Wallet, confirm:
The website domain is spelled correctly. The browser connection uses BNB Smart Chain when required. The page shows the expected payment method. No one has asked for your recovery phrase. A recovery phrase is never needed to buy crypto presale. Anyone requesting it is attempting to take control of the wallet.
Review Permissions And Transaction Prompts A wallet connection lets a site ask for a transaction. It does not mean every request should be approved.
Read the Trust Wallet prompt before signing. For a purchase, it should show the asset being spent, the amount, network fee, and a request that matches the official crypto presale screen.
Be especially careful with approval requests. An approval can allow a contract to spend a token from your wallet. If the amount is unlimited or unclear, stop and verify the contract through official project information.
MemeToro’s public fair-launch contract draft is designed without an owner, admin role, or upgrade path. It is intended to lock funding rules and limit contributor funds to refunds or the planned liquidity process.
The full production contract system remains unfinished. Buyers should not assume that every contract using MemeToro branding is official. Always use the current official portal and published project links.
Check The Wider Presale Rules Before Buying Contract safety is one part of the review. Buyers should also check token allocation, claim rules, audit information, vesting, and the difference between live features and future plans.
MemeToro is in Stage 7 at $0.00430 under the supplied information. $MT is intended to support platform access, funding, staking, rewards, trading, and prediction markets.
The project has published 1,373 lines across 17 files for its early fair-launch system. It still needs testnet deployment, token execution, liquidity routing, and independent security review.
For a safer Trust Wallet purchase, fund a separate wallet only with the amount you intend to use, keep BNB for fees, verify the official portal, and save the transaction hash after confirmation.
Wallet safety is a habit. Verify the link, read the prompt, avoid broad approvals, and never share the recovery phrase.
Buying a crypto presale token and seeing it in a wallet are often separate steps. A crypto presale purchase may be recorded on a project dashboard first, while the actual token becomes visible only after the token generation event and official claim process.
For people asking where to buy best crypto presales on Trust Wallet, this can cause confusion. A missing token icon does not automatically mean the payment failed, and adding the wrong custom token can expose a user to fake assets.
Buyers should only add $MT after MemeToro publishes its official contract address and claim instructions.
A Crypto Presale Credit Is Not Always A Wallet Token During a crypto presale, the payment can be linked to the wallet used for the purchase without placing a transferable asset in Trust Wallet right away. The buyer may see a record on the project dashboard instead of a standard wallet balance.
MemeToro’s official guide explains that purchases are credited to the user account. Its public-sale allocation is described as having no vesting and being claimable at launch, but the final claim steps must come from official project communications.
This matters for where to buy presale crypto on Trust Wallet because users should not search social media for a random $MT contract address. Scammers often publish tokens with the same ticker before a real token is available.
Keep the purchase transaction hash and use the same wallet for the official claim process. That record is more useful than an unverified token image in the wallet.
Wait For The Official Contract Address A custom token is added using a contract address, network, token symbol, and decimals. The contract address is the most important part because the ticker name can be copied by anyone.
MemeToro’s fair-launch contract work is public, including its Foundry-tested FairLaunchEscrow.sol draft. However, the project has also said that the live deployment, token execution, and BNB Chain testnet steps remain in development.
When researching where to buy best crypto presales on Trust Wallet, separate published code from a live token contract. Do not treat a GitHub repository or an unofficial token listing as the final $MT address.
Use the official site and verified project channels to confirm:
The exact $MT contract address. The correct network, expected to be BNB Smart Chain. The token symbol and decimal setting. The official token generation event and claim date. If any detail is missing, wait rather than guess.
Add $MT To Trust Wallet Only After Claiming Once $MT is officially claimable and the contract address is verified, open Trust Wallet’s token-management area. Search for the token first, and only use the custom-token option if the official asset is not already listed.
Select BNB Smart Chain, paste the official contract address, and check whether the wallet automatically fills the symbol and decimals. Compare those details with the official MemeToro announcement before saving.
For where to buy best crypto presales on Trust Wallet, adding a custom token does not move tokens into the wallet. It only tells the wallet which blockchain asset to display.
If the claimed balance does not appear, do not send funds to a new address or repeat the purchase. First confirm that the claim transaction succeeded and that Trust Wallet is looking at the correct network.
How $MT Fits Into The MemeToro Plan $MT is intended to support MemeToro’s wider platform, including access, funding, staking, rewards, and planned launch-related activity. The project is also building AI proposal tools that document memecoin concepts before they move toward a fair-launch round.
Its validator is designed to reject unsupported source links, allocation totals that do not equal 100%, and insider allocations above zero. The contract draft is intended to lock round settings and limit funds to refunds or planned liquidity execution.
These features do not make a token purchase risk-free. For where to buy best crypto presales on Trust Wallet, the same safety rule applies before and after launch: verify the official link, network, contract address, and wallet prompt.
In a letter submitted to a U.S. court file opened by the FBI, the armed wing of Hamas snubs Binance. The Al-Qassam Brigades recommend that their donors route their crypto funds through Bybit, OKX, or RedotPay rather than through the world’s leading crypto platform (considered too risky). Certainly, this instruction dates from 2025. Nevertheless, it raises a question today about control over crypto exchanges and the traceability of funds.
In Brief A letter from Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, advises against Binance for crypto donations. The group instead recommends Bybit, OKX, Kast, and RedotPay for routing crypto funds. The document, dated February 10, 2025, was revealed on September 16, 2026, by the DoJ. The U.S. Treasury estimates crypto flows linked to Hamas at $165 million before October 2023. Binance claims this exclusion proves the effectiveness of its anti-money laundering controls. Why Does the Al-Qassam Brigades Distrust Binance for Its Crypto Transfers ? The message dates from February 10, 2025. An informant from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) received it from the Al-Qassam Brigades. The document was then made public on September 16, 2026, by the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) as part of a asset seizure warrant filed in early September. Currently, the case is before the federal court of the District of Columbia in Washington.
In the section dedicated to crypto donations, the armed wing of Hamas sends a clear message: it is preferable to not use the Binance crypto exchange to transfer funds. Al-Qassam also recommends not providing any real identity information about the recipient. The goal: to avoid the blocking of the digital wallet. The instruction even goes as far as suggesting to provide false information about the transfer beneficiary.
Good to know: on March 27, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice announced approximately $201,400 in crypto seized in an investigation involving over $1.5 million since October 2024. It mentioned at least 17 collection addresses. But that’s not all! A blockchain analysis shows that the address announced as usable only once actually received 34 deposits between February 11 and 21. The total crypto donations amount to 25,211 USDT.
These details are especially important as they contradict the promise of security in Hamas’s message.
Bybit, OKX, Kast, RedotPay: The Exchanges Now Favored by Hamas Rather than Binance, the Al-Qassam Brigades promote other crypto exchanges. The list includes:
Bybit; OKX; Kast; RedotPay; the Trust Wallet app. The letter even specifies a workaround method: Binance can be used only to purchase currencies, then another application must be used to finalize the crypto transfer.
Hamas also relies on Tether’s USDT stablecoin delivered via the TRC-20 crypto network. This technical layer allows the creation and circulation of fungible tokens on the Tron blockchain.
Crypto analysts agree on one point: this choice is no accident. The fact is that stablecoins offer:
a stable value; reduced transaction fees; global liquidity. Which makes them a favorite laundering tool for both legitimate actors and sanctioned groups alike. For example, USDT is now at the center of a new bet by the largest Russian bank. For several years, Russia has been subject to various international sanctions.
Binance and Other Crypto Players Cited in the Case Responded Quickly! According to Noah Perlman, compliance director at Binance, the fact that a terrorist group recommends avoiding Binance actually demonstrates that its monitoring mechanisms work. He recalls that the crypto platform invests heavily in:
sanctions filtering; monitoring of crypto transactions; cooperation with judicial authorities. For its part, OKX states that the wallet address mentioned in the letter had already been identified internally as linked to illicit activity. Any attempt to transfer crypto to it would therefore have been automatically blocked.
The crypto exchange Kast highlights a compliance team of over 50 people as well as technological partnerships with Elliptic, Sumsub, and Sardine. Their mission: to ensure identity verification and detect suspicious flows.
Bybit declined to comment, while RedotPay did not respond to requests.
Millions of Dollars in Crypto Linked to Hamas Funding In October 2023, the Wall Street Journal reported a notable fact: wallets linked to Hamas received about $41 million in crypto between 2020 and 2023. The same newspaper then mentioned a U.S. Treasury investigation involving $165 million in crypto transactions that may have contributed to financing the group before the attacks on October 7, 2023.
In its 2026 assessment of terrorist financing risks, the Treasury also confirms that Hamas and the Islamic State continue to use digital assets for certain donations and transfers. However, it specifies that traditional financial channels remain by far the preferred route for these groups.
Upstream, U.S. authorities seized more than $560,000 in crypto assets linked to Hamas. Binance itself is currently facing a lawsuit filed by victims of the October 7 attacks.
In any case, this court file reveals a simple reality: the more a crypto platform strengthens its compliance, the more illicit actors circumvent it. Binance, OKX, and other crypto exchanges will now have to deal with increased scrutiny while the investigation into flows linked to Hamas continues.

Al-Qassam Brigades steered donors away from BinanceHamas' military wing, the al-Qassam Brigades, explicitly told potential crypto donors to avoid Binance when sending funds, according to an FBI affidavit that surfaced in a recent Department of Justice asset-seizure filing.
Binance froze accounts; other platforms respondThe affidavit makes clear why Binance was singled out: the exchange's know-your-customer checks were seen as an obstacle. According to the original filing, Binance froze withdrawals on three accounts linked to the network in April 2025.
Binance pushed back on the episode as evidence that its compliance program works.
Bybit declined to comment, and RedotPay did not respond to requests for comment.

> Swap Eligible Staked and Wrapped Assets with 0% Swap Fees in Trust Wallet
CampaignsPublished on: Sep 16, 2026
Share postIn BriefSwap eligible staked and wrapped assets with 0% Trust Wallet swap fees when swapping between eligible pairs on the same supported chain across Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain.
Download Trust Wallet
We're excited to introduce 0% swap fees on eligible staked and wrapped asset swaps in Trust Wallet.
Staked and wrapped assets give you different ways to use your crypto while maintaining exposure to the underlying asset. For example, tokens such as stETH, weETH and JitoSOL represent staked assets, while tokens such as WETH and WSOL are wrapped versions of native assets.
Moving between these assets and their corresponding tokens can involve swap fees. With 0% swap fees on eligible pairs, you can swap between supported staked and wrapped assets without paying a Trust Wallet swap fee.
How to Get 0% Swap Fees in Trust Wallet Getting started is simple. There's nothing to opt into and no code to enter.
Open your Trust Wallet app and tap Swap.
Select an eligible staked asset (e.g stETH) as the token you're swapping from.
Select its eligible underlying or related token as the token you're swapping to (e.g ETH).
Make sure both tokens are on the same supported chain.
Review the swap details and confirm your transaction.
That's it. To qualify for the 0% swap fee, the swap must be made directly through the Trust Wallet in-app Swap interface and must involve an eligible pair on the same supported chain.
Which Staked and Wrapped Assets Are Eligible for 0% Fees? The 0% swap fee applies to the eligible pairs listed in this blog when both assets are on the same supported chain.
For example, a swap between stETH and WETH on Ethereum can qualify. A swap between stETH on Ethereum and WSOL on Solana does not qualify because the assets are on different chains.
Eligible assets include:
Ethereum: weETH, stETH, wstETH, WETH
Solana: WSOL, jitoSOL, INF, BNSOL, JupSOL
BNB Chain: WBNB, slisBNB
The full list of eligible assets and their contract addresses is provided in the appendix at the end of this post.
Note: Network gas fees still apply and are separate from the Trust Wallet swap fee. Gas fees are paid to the blockchain network, not to Trust Wallet.
Why Swap Staked and Wrapped Assets with 0% Fees? Staked and wrapped assets can be useful for different purposes across DeFi. You may want to move from a staked asset to another supported token, switch between different forms of the same asset, rebalance your portfolio, or use a different token within a Web3 application.
An eligible swap through Trust Wallet can provide another way to move from a staked asset to an eligible token without waiting for the staking protocol's withdrawal process. Trust Wallet routes swaps through third-party DEXs and swap providers, allowing you to complete the swap in a single transaction.
With 0% Trust Wallet swap fees on eligible pairs, you can make these swaps without paying a Trust Wallet swap fee while keeping your assets in self-custody.
FAQs Which staked and wrapped assets are eligible?
You can get 0% swap fees when you swap between any two eligible tokens listed in this blog , as long as both are on the same supported network. Eligible assets are available on Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain.
Does this work on every chain?
0% swap fees are available on Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain. Both tokens must be on the same network for the swap to qualify.
Can I swap across different chains for free?
No. The 0% swap fee applies only to swaps between two eligible tokens on the same chain. For example, swapping stETH on Ethereum for ETH on Ethereum can qualify. Swapping stETH on Ethereum for WSOL on Solana does not qualify.
Do I still pay gas fees?
Yes. Network gas fees still apply. These fees are set by the blockchain network and are separate from the Trust Wallet swap fee. The 0% offer applies to the Trust Wallet swap fee only.
Is this available to users in the UK?
No. This offer is not currently available to users in the United Kingdom.
Do I need to enter a code or opt in?
No. There's no code or opt-in required. When you make an eligible swap directly in the Trust Wallet in-app swap interface, the swap fee will be displayed as 0% in the app.
The 0% fee only applies to swaps using the assets and supported networks listed in this blog. If your swap doesn't meet these requirements, the standard applicable fee will apply.

Simple and convenient to use, seamless to exploreDownload Trust Wallet
A seed phrase is the master backup for a crypto wallet. Anyone who gets its 12 or 24 words can control the wallet and move its funds, so it should never be typed into a website, sent in a message, or stored in a screenshot.
That rule matters when researching where to buy presale crypto on Trust Wallet. Presale phishing pages can look like real launch dashboards, especially when a project is receiving attention.
MemeToro is in Stage 7 at $0.00430 per $MT and has raised more than $133,354.49, so buyers should treat every connection request and payment prompt carefully.
A Legitimate Presale Never Needs Your Seed Phrase A real wallet connection works through Trust Wallet’s approval screen. The website asks the wallet to connect, and the wallet asks the user to approve or reject that connection.
The process does not require a seed phrase. It also does not require a private key, screen sharing, remote phone access, or a recovery-code “verification.”
This is the first safety check for anyone asking where to buy presale crypto on Trust Wallet. If a page says the wallet must be “synced,” “repaired,” or “updated” by entering recovery words, close it immediately.
Scammers use these phrases to create panic. They may claim that the wallet is blocked, that a transaction cannot complete, or that an account must be verified before $MT can be credited.
Never type a seed phrase into a browser page. Never send recovery words to support accounts. Never scan a QR code from an unknown message. Never let someone guide you through a wallet “repair” call. MemeToro can provide official purchase instructions, but no project team can safely ask for control of a wallet.
Check The Link Before Connecting Trust Wallet Phishing sites often use a web address that looks almost correct. A fake page may replace one letter, add an extra word, or use a different ending such as .app instead of the known official domain.
Start from MemeToro’s official website and avoid buying through links sent in direct messages. Search ads and social posts can also lead to look-alike pages, so the domain should be checked before any wallet connection.
For where to buy presale crypto on Trust Wallet, the address bar matters more than the design. A copied logo or familiar price does not prove a website is genuine.
MemeToro’s official process asks users to connect a compatible wallet and choose a supported payment method. The wallet prompt should show a normal connection or transaction request, not an instruction to reveal private information.
If the page looks different from the official site, stop rather than trying to troubleshoot it. It is safer to reopen the official URL manually.
Use A Small Separate Wallet For Presale Activity A separate wallet, sometimes called a burner wallet, can limit exposure when a buyer is trying a new presale or decentralized application. It should hold only the amount intended for that purchase plus a small BNB balance for gas.
This does not make an unverified presale safe. It simply prevents a risky connection from sitting next to long-term assets in the same wallet.
For where to buy presale crypto on Trust Wallet, a separate wallet can be useful when buying $MT with BNB or supported stablecoins on BNB Smart Chain. Keep the recovery phrase offline and do not reuse it for other wallets.
MemeToro’s public-sale allocation is described as having no vesting and being claimable at launch. Buyers should still save their transaction hash and wait for official claim details rather than trusting a message that says tokens are ready early.
Understand What The Stage 7 Price Does And Does Not Mean MemeToro lists $MT at $0.00430 during Stage 7. The project has also displayed a $0.05186 launch-price target, which is about 12.06 times the current listed price.
That is a comparison between two stated prices, not a guaranteed return. The market price after launch could be lower, higher, or unavailable at the displayed target because liquidity, trading demand, supply, and execution all matter.
For where to buy presale crypto on Trust Wallet, the safer focus is verification. MemeToro has published 1,373 lines across 17 files for its first fair-launch contract draft, but its live token execution, liquidity process, and BNB Chain testnet work remain in development.
FAQs Can MemeToro support ask for my seed phrase? No. Legitimate support should never ask for a seed phrase, private key, or recovery words.
What should I do if I entered my seed phrase on a fake site? Create a new wallet immediately and move remaining assets to it if possible. Do not keep using the compromised wallet.
Is a separate presale wallet required? It is optional, but it can reduce exposure by keeping only the planned purchase amount in the wallet.
Trust Wallet just made it easier for Android users to spend their Cash App balance on crypto. The self-custody wallet now supports Cash App Pay as a funding method through MoonPay’s checkout system, extending a feature that previously launched on iOS.
The integration means eligible US users can purchase digital assets directly from their Cash App balance without punching in card details.
What the integration actually does Here’s how it works: when a Trust Wallet user on Android initiates a crypto purchase through MoonPay, Cash App Pay now appears as a payment option. Select it, authenticate with Cash App, and the funds pull directly from the user’s Cash App balance. No bank transfer delays, no card numbers floating around.
The crypto options available through this flow go well beyond what Cash App itself has historically offered. Cash App’s native crypto support was limited to Bitcoin and, more recently, USDC. Through this MoonPay integration, users can now access a broader set of assets including Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and Tether.

Trust Wallet isn’t the only wallet benefiting from this arrangement either. MoonPay’s Cash App Pay integration also works with other self-custody wallets like Ledger and MetaMask, making this more of a platform-wide on-ramp than a single partnership.
The players and their incentives Three companies are involved here, and each gets something distinct out of the deal.
MoonPay is the payment processor sitting in the middle. The company has built its business on making crypto purchases as painless as possible, and it already supported funding through PayPal and Venmo before adding Cash App Pay.
Cash App, operated by Block (the company formerly known as Square), gets expanded crypto relevance without building new infrastructure. Block has been vocal about its Bitcoin-centric strategy for years, but this partnership lets Cash App’s roughly 59 million active users access a wider crypto menu through third-party partners rather than through features Block has to engineer, maintain, and take regulatory responsibility for.
Why the timing matters The broader context here is a fintech industry that’s steadily dissolving the boundary between traditional payment apps and crypto platforms. Venmo added crypto buying in 2021. PayPal launched its own stablecoin. And now Cash App is letting its balance function as a crypto funding source across multiple external wallets.
For Cash App specifically, the 59 million active user figure (reported as of June 2026) represents a substantial pool of potential crypto buyers who are already comfortable moving money digitally but may not have taken the step into crypto yet.
No immediate price impact was observed in major crypto assets following the announcement, which isn’t surprising. Infrastructure integrations like this tend to produce gradual adoption curves rather than sudden demand spikes.

Trust Wallet has expanded its crypto purchasing options for United States users through the integration of Cash App Pay via MoonPay. The update aims to streamline the process for individuals looking to buy digital assets, reducing friction for those who already rely on Cash App for their financial transactions.
Cash App integration now available on iOS and AndroidThe company confirmed that eligible US users can now utilize their Cash App balance to buy cryptocurrencies directly within Trust Wallet through MoonPay. This feature, originally launched on iOS devices, is now available on Android as well, allowing access to a broader segment of the user base.
Traditionally, onboarding new users to crypto wallets has depended on debit cards, bank transfers, or third-party payment providers. These options often introduce extra steps and create points of potential transaction failure.
Through the new integration, users can connect their Cash App accounts to MoonPay, utilizing the funds already in their Cash App balance for crypto purchases. The process removes the need to manually input card details each time, offering increased convenience for millions of existing Cash App users.
Industry efforts to simplify crypto on-rampsThe launch of this feature aligns with a broader industry movement to improve fiat-to-crypto on-ramps and enhance mainstream adoption. As competition grows among self-custody wallets, providers are focusing on making crypto acquisition experiences as seamless as those in traditional digital finance.
For Trust Wallet, the Cash App Pay integration is a strategic move to attract individuals who are comfortable with Cash App’s interface but new to cryptocurrency. By simplifying the on-ramp, the company aims to draw more first-time buyers into the ecosystem.
MoonPay also broadens its reach by supporting another major payment option within one of the leading self-custody wallets.
Trust Wallet described the feature as a way for users to purchase digital assets without the need for traditional card payments, highlighting its commitment to eliminating barriers to entry for mainstream users.
Currently, access is limited to eligible US customers transacting in US dollars. Users must also ensure that both their Cash App and MoonPay accounts are registered under the same legal name to ensure successful transactions.
Tools for efficient trading and portfolio managementWith features like Cash App Pay simplifying payments, investors increasingly seek centralized platforms for monitoring their holdings and navigating rapidly changing markets. In a market where a single Fed decision or a sudden altcoin listing can change everything in seconds, jumping between different apps for charts, news, and portfolio tracking is costing investors money. Smart traders are now utilizing privacy-first tools like CryptoAppsy to consolidate everything. Without even the hassle of creating an account, users gain access to real-time charts, smart price alerts, coin-specific news, and critical macro data all on one screen.
While this payment integration will not necessarily drive direct shifts in cryptocurrency prices, it underscores ongoing industry efforts to lower onboarding barriers and widen access to the digital asset market. Expanding such features may ultimately play a pivotal role in supporting wider adoption.
The central question remains whether Trust Wallet will expand this integration beyond the US and add support for new regional payment methods as user adoption grows.
Should this rollout prove successful, similar partnerships and payment options could become standard across self-custody wallets as providers compete to offer faster, easier, and more accessible crypto on-ramps.
A mobile app most crypto natives hadn’t heard of six months ago just leapfrogged Trust Wallet in one of DeFi’s most competitive leaderboards. Invo, a social trading platform built on Hyperliquid, now sits at second place in 30-day builder code volume, trailing only Phantom on HyperTracker’s rankings.
The app recorded $1.49B in trading volume over the past 30 days, a 28% increase that pushed it past Trust Wallet and cemented its position as the fastest-growing front end in Hyperliquid’s ecosystem. It did this with 40,801 unique traders, more than double the count of the previous second-place holder.
Copy-trading meets TikTok marketing Invo’s core product is deceptively simple. Users can mirror the trading strategies of top-performing traders on Hyperliquid’s perpetuals markets, essentially turning someone else’s alpha into a one-tap investment thesis. The app supports more than 170 trading pairs.
What separates Invo is how aggressively it has leaned into social media distribution, particularly on TikTok, to acquire users who might never have interacted with a decentralized exchange directly. The app’s user count dwarfs competitors in its tier, and its volume figures have remained consistently between $1.4B and $1.7B through late August 2026.
HyperTracker publicly acknowledged Invo’s trajectory on August 18, highlighting the platform’s “user-led growth initiatives” and its differentiation through social features rather than traditional wallet integrations.
What builder codes actually measure For those unfamiliar with Hyperliquid’s architecture, builder codes are essentially referral tags baked into the protocol layer. When a front-end application routes trades through Hyperliquid, it stamps each transaction with its builder code. HyperTracker aggregates this data to show which interfaces are driving the most volume, giving the ecosystem a transparent scoreboard of who’s actually bringing users to the chain.
It’s a useful metric because it captures real economic activity, not just downloads or sign-ups. Invo’s $1.49B figure represents actual perpetual futures trades routed through its interface using the builder code INVO.
Phantom currently holds the top spot, which makes sense given its massive installed base as a multi-chain wallet. Trust Wallet, backed by Binance’s brand recognition and distribution, had been a comfortable second. Invo displacing it is roughly the equivalent of a scrappy startup outselling a major retailer in a specific product category.
The social trading thesis gets a stress test The copy-trading model introduces a different set of risks. Users who mirror a top trader’s positions are essentially delegating their risk management to someone else. When that someone else is profitable, it feels like a cheat code. When they’re not, the losses compound across every follower simultaneously.
The TikTok distribution channel adds another layer of complexity. Younger demographics drawn in by social media promotions may not fully understand the mechanics of leveraged perpetual futures, which can liquidate positions rapidly in volatile conditions.
For Hyperliquid itself, Invo’s growth is an unambiguous positive. The protocol benefits from volume regardless of which front end generates it, and a diverse ecosystem of builder-code applications reduces dependency on any single interface.
Disclosure: This article was edited by Editorial Team. For more information on how we create and review content, see our Editorial Policy.
Per HyperTracker data, in Hyperliquid Builder’s 30-day revenue ranking, MetaMask leads with ~$1.3248 million, followed by Phantom at ~$1.2568 million, and Trust Wallet third with ~$900,200. The full breakdown: MetaMask: $1.3248M, 30-day trading volume $1.43B; Phantom: $1.2568M, $2.29B; Trust Wallet: $900.2k, $1.5B; Invo: $658.4k, $1.87B; fomo: $430.1k, $971M; 0xc7...b71a: $291.6k, $294M; 0x7c...e781: $242.3k, $636M; Trasia: $229k, $457M; Rabby: $227.7k, $1.13B; Blockchain: $181.2k, $160M. The Hyperliquid Builder Code mechanism allows wallets, trading frontends, tools, or bots to add origin tags to transaction orders via the on-chain Builder field, earning a share of fees from the transaction flows they route. Data shows top wallets and frontends are emerging as key revenue capture entry points for the Hyperliquid ecosystem, with MetaMask and Phantom both generating over $1.2 million in Builder revenue over the past 30 days.

Download Trust Wallet
We're excited to introduce 0% swap fees on eligible stablecoin swaps in Trust Wallet. When you swap one eligible stablecoin for another on the same chain, the Trust Wallet swap fee is 0%.
Stablecoins are an important part of how people use crypto, whether they're holding funds, making payments, or moving value between different assets. Swapping between stablecoins is often part of that process, but swap fees can add friction and reduce the amount of value you receive.
With 0% swap fees on eligible stablecoin swaps, we're making it easier to move between supported stablecoins while keeping more of your value in your wallet. You continue to have the same self-custody and control over your assets throughout the swap.
How to Get 0% Swap Fees on Trust Wallet Getting started is simple. There's nothing to opt into and no code to enter.
Open your Trust Wallet app and tap Swap.
Select an eligible stablecoin as the token you're swapping from.
Select an eligible stablecoin as the token you're swapping to.
Make sure both tokens are on the same supported chain.
Review the details and confirm your swap.
That's it. Only swaps conducted directly on the Trust Wallet in-app swap interface will be eligible for this campaign.
Which Stablecoins Can I Swap with 0% Fees? You can get 0% swap fees when you swap between two eligible stablecoins on the same supported network.
For example, swapping USDC on Base for USDT on Base can qualify. Swapping USDC on Base for USDT on Arbitrum does not qualify.
Eligible stablecoins include:
USDT and USDT0
USDC and USDC.e
EURC
USDS
DAI
U
Which Networks Support 0% Stablecoin Swaps? BNB Chain

Note: network gas fees still apply and are separate from swap fees. Gas is paid to the blockchain network, not to Trust Wallet.
The full list of stablecoins and their contract addresses is in the appendix at the end of this post.
Why Swap Stablecoins with 0% Fees? Stablecoin holders swap between assets for all kinds of reasons: managing what they hold, preparing for a payment, or moving into the stablecoin that works best for a given chain or use case. Each of those swaps normally carries a fee.
Removing the swap fee on eligible pairs keeps more value where it belongs, in your wallet, while giving you the same self-custody and control you expect from Trust Wallet. You stay in charge of your assets at every step.
FAQs Which stablecoins are eligible?
You can get 0% swap fees when you swap between any two stablecoins listed in this blog above, as long as both are on the same supported network. The included stablecoins are USDT, USDT0, USDC, USDC.e, EURC, USDS, DAI, and U.
Does this work on every chain?
0% swap fees are available across the supported networks listed above, except Ethereum. Both stablecoins must be on the same network for the swap to qualify.
Can I swap across different chains for free?
No. The 0% swap fee applies only to swaps between two eligible stablecoins on the same chain. For example, swapping USDC on Base for USDT on Base can qualify. Swapping USDC on Base for USDT on Arbitrum does not qualify.

Fifteen crypto holders have lost a combined $9.4 million in the past four weeks to a single address poisoning scammer operating on the Tron blockchain, according to on-chain investigator SpecterAnalyst.
How address poisoning targets usersThe attacker drained funds from fifteen victims, with the two largest individuals each suffering $2.5 million in losses. The stolen assets were quickly converted to USDD, the Tron-based stablecoin, and transferred into a single consolidation wallet.
Analyst Stacy Muur explained that address poisoning works by having the scammer send minuscule amounts of cryptocurrency—known as dust transactions—from addresses made to resemble legitimate ones the victim has recently interacted with. These fake addresses are crafted to imitate the genuine recipient’s address by matching the first and last few characters.
Since most crypto wallets display only the start and end of each address due to their length, users often recognize only these segments. This pattern makes it easy for a scammer’s dummy address to slip into a user’s transaction history, where it can be mistakenly copied and used later for a large transfer, unknowingly sending funds to the attacker instead of the intended party.
When blockchain addresses display just a few starting and ending characters in a user’s history, individuals may not notice a malicious address in the middle and can mistakenly send funds to a scam operator, especially when reusing addresses from previous transactions.
A striking example occurred on August 22, when Bofur Capital, an investment firm, lost around $2 million. The attacker had earlier sent a dust transaction of just 0.0002 USDC to Bofur from a fraudulent address, then waited until Bofur withdrew funds from Compound. By pasting the wrong address from their transaction list, Bofur inadvertently transferred the funds to the thief, who quickly swapped the USDC for DAI to avoid a freeze.
Current wallet protections and limitationsSome wallet providers have responded by introducing new safety features. MetaMask, owned by Consensys, and Trust Wallet have launched protections to help users avoid address poisoning, but their solutions focus mainly on EVM-compatible blockchains such as Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, and Polygon. Tron users remain largely unprotected.
MetaMask now issues a warning when users attempt to send assets to an address where only the visible first and last segments match a previously saved address, but the internal characters differ.
Trust Wallet introduced Address Poisoning Protection in March. This function checks addresses against a curated database of flagged poison addresses and presents a side-by-side view if a match is found. Trust Wallet has reported intercepting over 225 million poisoning attempts and confirmed over $500 million in losses to this particular scam method. The company estimates this represents 34,000 attacks per hour.
Cryptopolitan has noted that low gas fees on Ethereum enable scammers to conduct high volumes of dusting attacks, which can artificially increase the platform’s daily transaction counts.
After a $50 million address poisoning heist in December, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao urged all crypto wallets to check and block suspected poison addresses.
Keeping funds secure amid evolving threatsWith varied adoption of anti-poisoning technologies among wallets and inconsistent coverage across blockchains, experts emphasize personal vigilance. Users are advised to verify every character in destination addresses and store trusted contacts using wallet address book features, instead of copying from transaction history.
When sending large sums, it is also prudent to first transfer a small test amount for confirmation. In a market where a single Fed decision or sudden altcoin listing can change everything within seconds, investors moving rapidly between separate apps for news, portfolio management, and price charts may expose themselves to added risk and cost. Many traders are now turning to privacy-first platforms like CryptoAppsy, which offer a unified dashboard featuring real-time charting, coin-specific news, portfolio tracking, smart price alerts, and key macroeconomic indicators—all without requiring the creation of an account.
Until security features become standard on every blockchain and wallet, user awareness and best practices remain the front line of defense against address poisoning and similar attacks.

Bitcoin’s recent volatility has dropped to multi-year lows, with its 30-day realized volatility standing at around 42%, compared to the S&P 500’s roughly 18% — marking the narrowest gap in volatility between the two assets on record. The market is stuck in a stalemate between buyers and sellers: sell-offs by corporates and mining firms cap upside gains, while deleveraging and ongoing accumulation by long-term holders limit downside declines. As Bitcoin’s volatility eases, some short-term traders have shifted their risk appetite to assets like AI stocks, tokenized equities, stock perpetuals, and prediction markets. A NYDIG study notes that short-term traders tend to chase volatility, narrative momentum, and upside potential, with “traders targeting 5x or 10x returns” now having options including Bitcoin, Nvidia, gold, stock perpetuals, 0DTE options, and sports event contracts. Data shows that monthly trading volume of traditional asset perpetuals on crypto platforms has surged more than fivefold from $52 billion in January to $268 billion in June. Meanwhile, South Korean retail traders have clearly shifted from cryptocurrencies to AI-related stocks, with trading volumes on major South Korean crypto exchanges falling by up to around 80% year-over-year. CoinDesk points out that the Bitcoin market is currently more like in a “dormant” state, with falling trading participation, shrinking market depth, and regulatory uncertainty combining to suppress volatility. If U.S. crypto regulation makes substantial progress, the macro environment shifts, or a new market narrative emerges, the current low-volatility regime could be broken, and thinner liquidity may further amplify price swings.

NVIDIA: Multi-GPU UMAP can process 870GB of vector data in 8 minutes, achieving a maximum speedup of 74 times.
NVIDIA has released a technical blog announcing that its cuML and cuVS libraries now support multi-GPU UMAP functionality, enabling distributed execution of dimensionality reduction for large-scale vector data across multiple GPUs—significantly cutting runtime while preserving embedding quality. NVIDIA noted that during tests on the MIRACL dataset (containing 106 million vectors, totaling ~870GB) run on a DGX system equipped with 8 H100 GPUs, cuML’s multi-GPU UMAP completed end-to-end processing in just 8 minutes, delivering up to 74x speedups over projected CPU-based implementations. Prior CPU-based solutions failed to process the full dataset even with 2TB of memory. The approach works by partitioning data into multiple clusters, building local k-nearest neighbor (kNN) graphs in parallel across different GPUs, then merging these into a global graph, thereby overcoming the memory constraints of a single GPU. NVIDIA added that this technology can reduce hundreds-of-GB UMAP tasks that previously took hours or even days to process down to just minutes.

Axios reporter: The White House will host a tech leaders event with Trump tomorrow, and prediction market firms have not been invited.
According to Axios reporter Alex Isenstadt, the White House plans to co-host an event with President Trump tomorrow, with several tech industry leaders in attendance. White House sources noted that prediction market firms have not been invited to the event and will not participate. BlockBeats previously reported that on August 15, insiders disclosed that U.S. President Trump is expected to attend a crypto industry innovation conference at the White House next week, where he will hold discussions with executives from multiple crypto firms, as well as heads of prediction market and AI companies. Attendees of the conference include leaders from firms such as Coinbase, Ripple, Gemini, Robinhood, Polymarket, and Kalshi. All these executives are members of the newly established Innovation Advisory Committee of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Sources said the conference is scheduled to take place at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building adjacent to the White House, aiming to hold policy dialogues around innovative fields including U.S. fintech, crypto assets, prediction markets, and artificial intelligence. CFTC Chairman Mike Selig and other government advisors are also expected to attend, while Treasury Secretary Bessent and Commerce Secretary Lutnick may be present.

US media: Tesla’s Cybercab will be launched this month in Austin, but doubts remain over the safety of its autonomous driving.
Tesla plans to publicly unveil its Cybercab, a driverless taxi, in Austin, Texas, U.S. as early as this month. The vehicle features a steering-wheel and pedal-free design, with Tesla employees already testing the fully driverless version on private roads within the company’s campus. Reports note that Cybercab runs on Tesla’s FSD (Full Self-Driving) software, though its autonomous driving capabilities and safety remain under scrutiny. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is still investigating Tesla’s FSD for traffic rule compliance issues, while existing Robotaxi services in some markets still have human safety drivers on board. Cybercab is designed to operate without in-vehicle personnel intervention; Tesla plans to use remote operators to handle emergencies and has started integrating Starlink connectivity into the vehicles. Data scale is another concern. Tesla stated in July that it needs to accumulate dedicated driving data for Cybercab. To date, Tesla’s unsupervised Robotaxis have logged around 380,000 miles across six cities, while Waymo has completed over 220 million miles of fully autonomous driving on public roads since 2020. Additionally, Cybercab’s lack of traditional driving controls may face restrictions under U.S. federal vehicle safety regulations. It remains unclear whether Tesla is seeking regulatory exemptions, according to reports. The Verge points out that as Cybercab’s launch approaches, there remains significant uncertainty regarding the autonomous driving safety and regulatory approvals required for its commercial operation.
Trust Wallet is cutting 25 blockchain networks from its native support roster, effective September 15, 2026. The wallet, which has racked up over 220 million downloads, is also pulling the plug on its Trust Handle feature the same day.
The announcement, made on August 18, gives users less than a month to prepare.
What’s getting cut and what it means for users The 25 networks losing native support include Agoric, Aurora, and a mix of other chains. The wallet currently supports more than 100 blockchain networks and over 10 million digital assets, so this trim represents about a quarter of its chain coverage.
Assets on these networks aren’t disappearing. Trust Wallet is a self-custodial wallet, meaning users hold their own secret phrases and retain full control over their funds regardless of what the app interface supports. After September 15, anyone who still needs to interact with a sunsetted chain can do so by manually adding it through custom RPC details.
The Trust Handle feature, which integrated with the FIO Protocol to let users send and receive crypto using human-readable names instead of long wallet addresses, is also being discontinued. Existing handles will stop functioning for in-app transactions after the sunset date.
Why Trust Wallet is making these changes Trust Wallet framed the decision as a resource allocation play. Supporting dozens of blockchain networks isn’t free. Each chain requires ongoing maintenance, security monitoring, and compatibility updates.
Trust Wallet, which was acquired by Binance back in 2018, operates independently under CEO Eowyn Chen.
What affected users should do For anyone holding tokens on the 25 networks losing support, the immediate to-do list is straightforward. Before September 15, users should either move assets to a supported chain or familiarize themselves with the process of adding custom RPC configurations to maintain access.
The custom RPC route requires the correct network name, chain ID, RPC URL, currency symbol, and block explorer URL for whatever chain you want to add manually.
For Trust Handle users, any recurring payment flows or saved contacts that rely on handles will break after the cutoff. Users should update their contacts with standard wallet addresses before the deadline.

What Does This Mean for Your Assets? Your assets remain yours.
Trust Wallet is self-custodial, which means Trust Wallet does not hold or control your funds. Your assets remain on their respective blockchains and continue to be associated with your wallet's secret phrase.
This update changes how these networks are accessed through Trust Wallet. It does not change ownership of your assets.
If you need to access your assets through Trust Wallet after September 15, you can manually add the relevant network as a custom network using its RPC details.
What Does This Mean for Trust Handles? As we sunset support for the FIO network, Trust Handle support in Trust Wallet will also be discontinued on September 15, 2026. New Trust Handles will no longer be available for registration, and existing Trust Handles will no longer work in Trust Wallet after this date.
After September 15, you will no longer be able to use your Trust Handle to send or receive assets, or manage and renew it through Trust Wallet.
Your Trust Handle registration will remain recorded on the FIO network. This change only affects its support within Trust Wallet. We recommend using your wallet address directly for transactions going forward.
How to Add a Custom Network You can add a custom network directly through the Trust Wallet mobile app.
Important: Adding a custom network enables visibility and interaction with that network through Trust Wallet. Trust Wallet does not verify the legitimacy, security, or reliability of custom networks, RPC endpoints, or tokens. Always make sure that the network details you enter come from a trusted source.
Step 1: Open the Custom Network Screen in Trust Wallet Scroll down to the token section on the homepage.
Tap View all.
Tap the settings button in the top-right corner.
Select Manage Crypto.
Tap the "+" button.
Switch from the Token tab to the Network tab.
Enter the required network details and import the network.
Step 2: Where to Find Network Details To add a custom network, you need accurate network parameters. A commonly used resource is Chainlist, a directory of EVM-compatible networks.
Basic steps:
Visit Chainlist (chainlist.org).
Search for the network you want to add.
Review the available network information.
Select a trusted RPC endpoint and copy the required network details.
Enter the details in Trust Wallet and import the network.
Always verify network information before adding a custom network.
FAQ 1. Are my funds safe?
Your assets remain on their respective blockchains and are not transferred or deleted as a result of this update. Trust Wallet is self-custodial, which means your assets remain under your control through your wallet's secret phrase. After September 15, you can continue to access assets on these networks through Trust Wallet by manually adding the relevant network using its RPC details.
2. What happens to my Trust Handle?
Trust Handle support in Trust Wallet will be discontinued on September 15, 2026. After this date, you will no longer be able to use your Trust Handle to send or receive assets, or manage and renew it through Trust Wallet. Your Trust Handle registration will remain recorded on the FIO network. However, adding FIO as a custom network will not restore Trust Handle functionality in Trust Wallet.
3. Will Trust Wallet contact me to help with the transition?
Trust Wallet will never ask you to share your secret phrase, private keys, or other sensitive wallet information. We will also never contact you asking you to move your funds to another wallet as part of this update. Be cautious of anyone claiming to represent Trust Wallet who asks you to share sensitive information or move your funds.
4. What happens after the transition date?
Starting September 15, 2026, the networks listed in this blog will no longer appear in the Trust Wallet network list. You will no longer be able to view, send, swap, or otherwise interact with assets on these networks through Trust Wallet unless you manually add the relevant network as a custom network.
If you hold assets on any of these networks, you can continue to access them through Trust Wallet by manually adding the relevant network using its RPC details.

Hong Kong police recently disclosed a cryptocurrency investment scam targeting elderly individuals. In June this year, an over-80-year-old retired man clicked on a fake link in an online pop-up ad, downloading a counterfeit app posing as the crypto platform Trust Wallet. Scammers then impersonated platform customer service representatives, luring him to invest with promises of "high returns and big profits". The victim withdrew cash from his bank as instructed, then converted it into cryptocurrency via a crypto exchange. Over the next month and a half, he transferred multiple batches of ETH totaling over HK$5 million to the scammers’ designated wallets. He only realized he had been scammed when he could no longer withdraw funds from the fake app and the customer service contact went missing. Hong Kong police reminded family members to monitor the internet habits and financial situations of elderly people, proactively share anti-fraud information, and be alert to investment scams conducted through fake apps and high-yield promises.

Binance cofounder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao said Trust Wallet could make its existing Ignore coins feature easier to access after unsolicited meme tokens complicated management of his public wallet.
Summary
CZ said Trust Wallet already offers an Ignore coins feature, but access requires five steps. Zhao reversed his earlier view after users said hiding unsolicited tokens provides practical wallet management. Trust Wallet has not publicly announced a release date or confirmed specific interface changes yet. Public addresses can receive tokens without permission, while wallet applications can only hide their display. CZ retired his closely watched public wallet after unsolicited meme coins complicated balance management there. Zhao acknowledged on Aug. 17 that he had misjudged how useful the control could be. He said members of the Trust Wallet team told him that users can already ignore unwanted tokens, although reaching the option requires five steps.
No formal Trust Wallet announcement followed his post. The company has not confirmed a product update, specified which application versions may change or published a release date.
CZ reverses his view on hiding unwanted coins Zhao initially doubted that most wallet users needed a control for hiding random tokens. He reconsidered after people explained that unsolicited assets regularly appear in public cryptocurrency addresses.
“I misjudged that. A few people mentioned it is a useful feature,” Zhao wrote.
He said the Trust Wallet team had seen the discussion and informed him about the existing Ignore coins option. Zhao then offered a personal expectation rather than a confirmed development plan.
“I assume they will make some updates to this feature soon,” Zhao said. Trust Wallet has not publicly confirmed that assumption.
I mis-judged that. A few people mentioned it is a useful feature. @TrustWallet team saw this too. They told me there is a "Ignore coins" already, but it is buried 5 clicks deep. I assume they will make some updates to this feature soon. 🙏 https://t.co/yLY72NtWap
— CZ 🔶 BNB (@cz_binance) August 17, 2026 Making the control easier to find could help users organize wallets filled with spam, dust or unsupported assets. It would not remove the tokens from the blockchain or prevent other people from sending more assets to the same address.
Trust Wallet’s glossary advises users not to move or spend unknown dust. It also recommends using tools that hide or ignore unrecognized small balances.
Trust Wallet cannot remove tokens from a blockchain Public blockchain addresses can receive compatible tokens without approval from the address owner. A sender only needs the destination address and enough funds to pay the network fee.
Wallet software acts as an interface for reading and displaying blockchain records. It can hide unwanted balances from its portfolio screen, but it cannot reverse a valid transfer or erase the token from the underlying network.
Ignoring a token is also different from burning it. A burn requires sending an asset to an address designed to place it outside normal circulation. Hiding an asset changes only how the wallet application displays it.
The same distinction applies to privacy. Concealing an unwanted balance in Trust Wallet does not make the transfer private. Blockchain explorers can still display the sending address, receiving address, token contract and transaction amount.
Trust Wallet has documented the risks of fraudulent airdrops and copycat tokens in its security guidance. The company warns users against opening links promoted by unknown tokens or approving suspicious transactions.
Meme coin spam pushed CZ to retire his wallet Zhao’s comments followed his decision to stop using a closely watched public wallet. Community members had repeatedly sent meme coins and other BNB Chain tokens to the address, sometimes hoping that visibility in his wallet would attract attention.
As crypto.news previously reported, Zhao moved roughly $965,000 to Giggle Academy before retiring the address. Onchain trackers reported transfers of approximately 1,440 BNB and 182,620 币安人生 tokens to the education project.
Zhao said it was almost impossible to clean out the wallet because anyone could continue sending new tokens. He described the retired address as effectively serving as a burn address, although it is not a protocol defined burn address.
The private key holder could technically use the address again unless access has been destroyed or permanently surrendered. Zhao has said he will no longer use it, but blockchain records cannot verify a personal promise about future activity.
The episode also shows how public wallets linked to prominent people can become promotional tools. A token appearing in a known address does not prove that the address owner purchased, approved or endorsed it.
Zhao previously warned users not to send tokens to him and suggested that projects burn their tokens directly instead. Community members nevertheless continued monitoring the address and speculating about whether he might test selected meme coins.
Hiding tokens does not remove security risks Unsolicited tokens are not automatically malicious. Some can result from legitimate airdrops, marketing campaigns or ordinary transfers. Others may contain links or names intended to direct users toward fraudulent websites.
The main risk often begins when a user interacts with an unknown contract, visits a website promoted through a token or grants spending approval to a decentralized application. Simply receiving a token does not give its sender control of the wallet.
Trust Wallet separately allows users to review and revoke token approvals. Its official instructions explain that approvals authorize applications to access tokens, while the Ignore coins control concerns portfolio display.
Users should also distinguish unsolicited tokens from address poisoning. In related coverage, a crypto user lost 100,000 USDT after copying a lookalike wallet address that an attacker had planted in the transaction history. Hiding a token would not prevent that form of attack.
What happens next for the Ignore coins feature Trust Wallet may move the existing control closer to its main portfolio screen or reduce the number of steps required to use it. Zhao’s comment suggests the team is aware of the feedback, but it does not confirm the design, timing or availability of any change.
A formal application update, release note or statement from Trust Wallet would provide confirmation. Until then, reports that the company has announced a new privacy measure would be inaccurate.
The confirmed development is narrower. Zhao reversed his earlier opinion, identified an existing feature that he considers difficult to reach and said he assumed Trust Wallet would update it.
Users can already hide unwanted assets through the wallet interface. Those assets remain visible onchain, and avoiding interaction with unknown tokens remains the safer approach.
Changpeng Zhao ended up abandoning the public crypto wallet he was using. Too many memecoins, dust, and unwanted tokens were arriving directly at the address without him being able to stop them. The episode also moved Trust Wallet. CZ now requests that its feature allowing to ignore certain tokens becomes much easier to use.
In Brief CZ abandons a public wallet flooded with memecoins and unwanted tokens. Trust Wallet already has an “Ignore coins” feature, but it remains difficult to access. A wallet cannot prevent someone from sending a token to a public address. CZ abandons his public crypto wallet The problem is not a hack. A public blockchain address can receive compatible assets sent by anyone. It is impossible for its owner to reject the transaction before it arrives. CZ experienced this on a large scale. The issue is not new to him either. In April 2025, his address had already received 90 million fake Grok tokens.
This time, the accumulation of promotional memecoins, small amounts of dust, and spam tokens eventually made the address difficult to manage. CZ therefore set it aside. This does not clean the blockchain. The received tokens remain visible and so do the old transactions. A public address retains its history.
The problem mainly affects the display of the crypto wallet. A user who receives ten, fifty, or a hundred tokens without having requested them does not necessarily want to see them appear each time the app opens. CZ initially thought hiding these assets would not be useful to many people. He changed his mind.
Trust Wallet already had the feature After several user reactions, CZ admitted he had underestimated the usefulness of this option. Trust Wallet already has a feature called “Ignore coins.” It allows hiding cryptos whose balance the user no longer wants to see in the interface.
Small problem: according to CZ, it currently takes five clicks to find it. He now expects an app update to make this feature more accessible. It would mainly be an interface change.
Trust Wallet cannot delete a token received on the blockchain nor prevent its transfer to a public address. The application can simply decide not to display it anymore. The nuance matters. Hiding a memecoin does not destroy it. The contract, the transaction, and the balance remain accessible on-chain.
Trust Wallet is already working on several protections for crypto users. In March, the app had for instance deployed a protection against address poisoning on Ethereum and BNB Chain.
The system covers 32 EVM blockchains and compares certain suspicious addresses before sending a transaction. Trust Wallet then reported detecting over 225 million attempted address poisonings. The feature requested by CZ addresses a much more mundane problem. Tokens arrive. The user just wants to stop seeing them.
Memecoins mainly seek visibility Sending a token to a crypto figure’s public address costs little and sometimes guarantees free advertising. CZ represents an ideal target. Once the token is visible in his wallet, its name can spread on X, Telegram, or in trader communities. Some projects then try to make people believe in a link with the Binance founder when no partnership exists.
This has already happened around him several times. A single CZ tweet can even trigger very violent movements. In October 2025, a trader had turned about 3,000 dollars into 2 million thanks to a memecoin associated with a CZ tweet. It’s no surprise his address attracts senders. CZ therefore chose the simplest solution: changing his crypto wallet for everyday use. Trust Wallet, for its part, should make the button allowing tokens to be ignored much more visible. The wallet will remain public. Memecoins will probably continue to arrive.

Binance founder @cz_binance has used a data breach at Trezor's shipping provider as fresh ammunition in his argument for software-based self-custody wallets, saying the act of purchasing and receiving a physical device creates a paper trail that links a buyer's real-world identity and home address to their crypto holdings.
Writing on X, @cz_binance named Binance Web3 Wallet and @TrustWallet as alternatives that avoid that specific exposure. He also disclosed that @yzilabs invests in a number of hardware wallet companies, framing the debate as a matter of different risk profiles rather than a categorical verdict against cold storage.
What happened at ShipMonkThe breach that prompted the remarks was confirmed by Trezor on August 13, 2026. According to BleepingComputer, Trezor's shipping provider ShipMonk notified the company on August 10 that an unauthorized party had accessed its systems. The incident affected 11,742 customers whose full names, email addresses, phone numbers, and shipping addresses were exposed, along with a further 1,947 customers who suffered partial exposure of name, city, and email. Trezor itself said it was the first breach in the company's history to expose customer phone numbers and shipping addresses.
ShipMonk told affected customers that the attackers exploited a vulnerability in the third-party analytics platform Metabase. Trezor confirmed that its own infrastructure, firmware, and devices were not compromised. Affected customers covered orders placed between May 10 and August 8, 2026, across the United States, United Kingdom, Sweden, Colombia, Brazil, Italy, and Portugal.
Broader context for hardware wallet securityThe Trezor incident follows a difficult stretch for hardware wallet makers. In late July, a firmware flaw in Coldcard Mk3 devices dating to March 2021 was exploited to drain approximately 1,082 $BTC, worth around $70 million at the time, in a window of roughly 41 minutes. CoinDesk reported that @cz_binance responded to that incident by urging holders to split funds across multiple wallets, while cautioning that even that approach carries its own risks and that nothing is 100 percent safe.
The ShipMonk breach adds a different dimension to the hardware wallet risk discussion: the supply chain and logistics layer, not just firmware. Trezor said it plans to introduce an anonymous delivery option featuring locker pickup, neutral packaging, and automatic deletion of shipping identifiers, targeting European customers by September 2026 and US customers by year-end. Affected customers are advised to treat unexpected contact with suspicion and to never enter a wallet backup online.

The functionality, which supports Trust Wallet, MetaMask, and other wallets via WalletConnect, is now accessible to all 1win customers. Passwords, wallet address copying, and email registration are no longer required thanks to the new verification method. A new Web3 authentication mechanism that enables users to register, sign in, and deposit funds using a cryptocurrency wallet has been introduced by 1win, a cryptocurrency entertainment platform. Passwords, wallet address copying, and email registration are no longer required thanks to the new verification method.
The functionality, which supports Trust Wallet, MetaMask, and other wallets via WalletConnect, is now accessible to all 1win customers. All choices support EVM-compatible networks, while Trust Wallet and WalletConnect-enabled TRON options allow TRON connections. One of the first cryptocurrency entertainment platforms that provide smooth wallet onboarding for the TRON network, where USDT (TRC-20) is still one of the most popular payment methods among cryptocurrency users, is 1win.
With the new features, a user’s cryptocurrency wallet essentially becomes their account identity. They may just link their wallet and verify the connection without than creating a regular account. It instantly creates a new 1win account connected to that wallet. Confirming a transaction inside the wallet application completes the deposit process.
The revised onboarding process eliminates a number of typical problems with cryptocurrency platforms:
Faster onboarding and deposits using native Web3 authentication without the need for email registration, usernames, passwords, or manual wallet address copying This reduces the time between the first visit and the first deposit, giving consumers a far more efficient experience from the very first engagement with the platform. 1win is a cryptocurrency gaming platform that was established in 2016. 1win, which operates throughout Asia, Latin America, and Africa, provides a variety of products for entertainment tailored to local consumers. The company actively collaborates with global celebrities, such as Olympic champion and UFC fighter Gable Steveson, martial artist Jon Jones, and football icon Luis Suarez. Rapper Tyga and UFC great Ilia Topuria joined 1win’s 1win VIP community in 2026.

[PRESS RELEASE – Willemstad, Curaçao, August 4th, 2026]
1win, a crypto entertainment platform, has launched a new Web3 authentication system that allows users to register, sign in, and deposit funds using a crypto wallet. The new verification mechanism eliminates the need for email registration, passwords, or manually copying wallet addresses.
The feature is now available to all 1win users and supports Trust Wallet, MetaMask, and other wallets via WalletConnect. EVM-compatible networks are supported across all options, while TRON connections are available through Trust Wallet and WalletConnect-enabled TRON options. 1win is among the first crypto entertainment platforms to introduce seamless wallet onboarding for the TRON network, where USDT (TRC-20) remains one of the most widely used payment methods among crypto users.
With the new functionality, a crypto wallet effectively becomes a user’s account identity. They no longer need to create a traditional account, and may simply connect their wallet and confirm the connection. A new 1win account linked to that wallet is created automatically. Deposits are completed by confirming a transaction directly within the wallet application.
The updated onboarding flow removes several common friction points associated with crypto platforms:
no email registration no usernames or passwords no manual wallet address copying faster onboarding and deposits through native Web3 authentication For users, this means a significantly more streamlined experience from the very first interaction with the platform, reducing the time between the initial visit and the first deposit.

EVM-compatible networks are supported across all options, while TRON connections are available through Trust Wallet and WalletConnect-enabled TRON options. 1win is among the first crypto entertainment platforms to introduce seamless wallet onboarding for the TRON network, where USDT (TRC-20) remains one of the most widely used payment methods among crypto users.
With the new functionality, a crypto wallet effectively becomes a user's account identity. They no longer need to create a traditional account, and may simply connect their wallet and confirm the connection. A new 1win account linked to that wallet is created automatically. Deposits are completed by confirming a transaction directly within the wallet application.
The updated onboarding flow removes several common friction points associated with crypto platforms:
no email registration no usernames or passwords no manual wallet address copying faster onboarding and deposits through native Web3 authentication For users, this means a significantly more streamlined experience from the very first interaction with the platform, reducing the time between the initial visit and the first deposit.

For a network that moves more than $21 billion in stablecoins every single day, Tron has had a surprisingly awkward relationship with the broader wallet ecosystem. WalletConnect, the open protocol that lets mobile wallets talk to decentralized applications, has been around since 2018. It only added Tron support in January 2026.
Trust Wallet, the self-custodial wallet serving over 210 million users, now lets its users connect directly to Tron dApps through WalletConnect. In practical terms, that means TRC-20 token transfers, stablecoin swaps, and DeFi interactions without leaving the wallet you already use. No new downloads, no bridging headaches, no additional development required from app teams.
What the integration actually unlocks WalletConnect’s Tron support doesn’t just benefit Trust Wallet. The protocol connects over 600 wallets and roughly 70,000 dApps, creating a massive surface area for Tron’s ecosystem to tap into.
The dApps already benefiting from the integration include some familiar names in the Tron universe: Sun.io, JustLend, Bridgers, Symbiosis Finance, and Debridge. Other wallets joining the party alongside Trust Wallet include Binance Web3 Wallet and SafePal.

Since October 2025, Trust Wallet has already processed over $20 million in transactions through this WalletConnect integration.
Tron’s stablecoin dominance by the numbers The network facilitated approximately $7.9 trillion in USDT transfers throughout 2025. Tron founder Justin Sun has noted that stablecoin transfers on the network exceed $21 billion daily.
WalletConnect CEO Jess Houlgrave has emphasized the efficiency stablecoins offer compared to traditional payment rails, framing the Tron integration as a step toward mainstream accessibility.
As of January 2026, Tron boasts over 359 million user accounts and has surpassed 12 billion total transactions. The network’s total value locked exceeds $25 billion, cementing its position as one of the largest DeFi ecosystems by that metric.
What investors should watch The immediate question for TRX holders is whether increased accessibility translates to increased demand for the network’s native token. More wallet connections mean more potential transactions, and more transactions mean more TRX burned in fees.
One risk worth flagging: Tron’s ecosystem remains closely associated with Justin Sun, whose regulatory and legal entanglements have periodically spooked investors. The network’s fundamentals are strong by on-chain metrics, but concentration of influence in a single figure adds governance risk that doesn’t show up in TVL charts.
For DeFi protocols building on Tron, the WalletConnect integration should reduce friction for new users significantly. JustLend and Sun.io in particular stand to benefit from the wave of wallet users who can now interact with their platforms without downloading Tron-specific wallet software.
The $20 million in Trust Wallet transactions since October 2025 is worth monitoring as a leading indicator. If that number accelerates meaningfully in the months following the formal January announcement, it would suggest genuine demand rather than novelty usage.
