BNB Chain released a mandatory hotfix (v0.1.4) for BSC-Reth node operators on mainnet and testnet, requiring an upgrade and restart. The update is crucial ahead of the Jenner hardfork on December 8, 2026, and a planned migration to Reth-based clients by year-end. A potential security risk was acknowledged but deemed limited to BSC-Reth, with no immediate action required for users.
Binance recovered 98% of the $6.3B hacked in October, according to Immunefi. It expanded its proof of reserves to 44 tokens, though verification is pending. BNB, its native token, is trading at $705, up 0.5% in 24 hours. Binance operates various markets and holds licenses in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Coinbase, a competitor, claims 99% of assets are in cold storage.
Bitcoin rose 5.7% to $80,484, while Zcash surged 11.7% ahead of a network upgrade, as cryptocurrencies rebounded post-election. Ether, XRP, and Solana also gained. Democratic control may complicate U.S. crypto legislation, according to industry sources.
