    國際時事跟讀 Ep. L301: Binance Loses $6.3 Billion in Record Crypto Heist

    Highlights 主題摘要

    • Hackers stole about $6.3 billion from Binance, the world's largest crypto exchange, in a record-breaking theft.
    • Analysts blamed North Korean hackers, who ordered Binance's wallets to empty into wallets under their control.
    • Binance halted withdrawals and promised to cover losses, but the heist shook confidence in centralised exchanges.

    Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, has been hit by what analysts describe as the biggest crypto heist on record. Hackers made off with about $6.3 billion, most of it within roughly 20 minutes late on Thursday, according to blockchain analysis firms TRM Labs and Chainalysis. The sum dwarfs the previous record of $1.5 billion, stolen from the exchange Bybit in February 2025. Binance halted withdrawals, insisting customer funds were safe, and warned the figure may continue to increase.

    全球最大加密貨幣交易所幣安(Binance)遭駭,分析人士稱這是史上最大宗加密貨幣竊案。區塊鏈分析公司 TRM Labs 與 Chainalysis 指出,駭客週四深夜下手,捲走約63億美元,大部分在20分鐘左右完成。先前的最高紀錄是2025年2月 Bybit 交易所失竊的15億美元,這次金額遠遠超過。幣安已暫停提款,強調客戶資金安全,但也提醒損失數字可能還會增加。

    Both firms said they were highly confident that North Korea was responsible, pinning the attack on TraderTraitor, a unit linked to the Lazarus Group. According to TRM, the attackers were able to order Binance's wallets to empty into wallets they controlled, mirroring the Bybit hack, which the FBI attributed to North Korea. Experts say crypto theft has become a much-needed source of foreign currency for Pyongyang, helping to prop up its economy and fund a nuclear programme that is under UN sanctions. North Korea routinely denies involvement in hacking.

    兩家公司都表示,有高度信心是北韓所為,並把矛頭指向與拉撒路集團(Lazarus Group)有關的駭客部隊 TraderTraitor。TRM 說,攻擊者能直接下令幣安錢包,把資產轉進駭客控制的錢包,手法和 Bybit 案如出一轍;美國聯邦調查局(FBI)已認定 Bybit 案是北韓所為。專家指出,竊取加密貨幣已成為平壤急需的外匯來源,用來支撐經濟,並資助受聯合國制裁的核武計畫。北韓一向否認涉入駭客攻擊。

    Binance initially traced the breach to a hacked laptop belonging to one of its engineers, though it later said further investigation had uncovered additional points of breach. The company said it had found no evidence that any wallet's private key had been leaked. Mark Karpeles, the former head of the collapsed exchange Mt Gox, was less convinced, telling Reuters the attackers had probably accessed keys for at least two wallets. Stablecoin issuers moved quickly: Tether froze nearly $1.57 billion and Circle more than $800 million, part of roughly $3 billion frozen so far.

    幣安起初研判,入侵源頭是一名工程師遭駭的筆電,後來又說進一步調查發現其他入侵點。幣安表示,沒有證據顯示任何錢包私鑰外洩。已倒閉交易所 Mt Gox 的前負責人 Mark Karpeles 不太認同,他告訴路透,攻擊者很可能已取得至少兩個錢包的私鑰。穩定幣發行商迅速出手,Tether 凍結近15.7億美元,Circle 凍結逾8億美元,目前已凍結的資產合計約30億美元。

    The theft rattled markets. Bitcoin slid to a six-week low of $76,368, and shares in Coinbase, which said it was unaffected, fell 4.8 percent. Co-CEO Richard Teng pledged that Binance would cover every loss, yet the stolen sum is more than six times its $1 billion emergency fund. One analyst warned the episode could prompt investors to reassess the safety of assets held on centralised exchanges. As Sean Foley of Macquarie University put it, the larger an exchange's holdings, the larger a target it becomes.

    這起竊案衝擊市場。比特幣跌至6週低點7萬6368美元;Coinbase 表示未受波及,股價仍下跌4.8%。幣安共同執行長鄧偉政(Richard Teng)承諾承擔所有損失,但遭竊金額是幣安10億美元緊急基金的6倍多。有分析師警告,投資人可能因此重新評估資產放在集中式交易所的安全性。澳洲麥覺理大學(Macquarie University)學者 Sean Foley 指出,交易所持有的資產越多,就越容易成為攻擊目標。

    --------------------------------------------

    「偷」這個字,聽起來就很討厭對吧?但如果有人跟你說,英文要學好,第一步就是去偷呢?

    這集幕後教師室回到大家熟悉的learning tips,聊奧斯汀‧克隆(Austin Kleon)的《點子都是偷來的》(Steal Like an Artist)。一本講創意的書,拿來套在英文學習上,意外地超級對味。不管你是擠捷運的台北上班族,還是開車進竹科的工程師,這集聽完應該會對「模仿」這件事改觀。

    以前叫偷師,現在叫sharing

    John老師從沒在歐洲留過學,但聽他講起來好像去過一樣。秘訣很簡單:身邊朋友有留英的、留歐的、留日的,他每個都抓來問東問西。在那邊怎麼吃比較便宜?出門要注意什麼?哪裡容易被扒?問一輪下來,別人的經驗全收進自己口袋。

    以前這叫「偷師」。老師傅花了半輩子才練出那一點功夫,當然不會手把手教你,徒弟只能站在旁邊用眼睛偷學。

    但到了網路時代,大家是搶著分享。John老師舉鼎泰豐當例子:玻璃窗後面師傅在包小籠包,外面一群人盯著看到口水直流,店家怕你學走十八摺嗎?一點也不怕。你真的站在那裡看,才會懂那十八摺有多難,要練多久才能包得又快又漂亮。

    真功夫本來就學不走。15Mins一直說「歡迎來偷學」,就是這個意思。

    先模仿,再remix,最後才是你自己的聲音

    那要怎麼偷?第一步一定是模仿。

    就像全民大悶鍋或美國SNL模仿名人,先抓語調、抓語速,觀眾一聽就知道你在學誰。這個階段還不是你自己,但沒關係,起點本來就長這樣。

    接著是remix。一首歌可以有DJ版、電音版,甚至三太子版,同樣的旋律加進不同元素就變成新東西。英文也一樣,你從A身上學簡報的節奏,從B身上學開場的氣勢,再混進自己的經驗和個性,慢慢就會長出書裡說的own voice。

    阿鍵老師以前待過廣告公司,他說業界常常copycat別人的創意,但最後的成品絕對不會一模一樣,因為每個人都會加進自己的變化。

    那該學誰?拿歐巴馬和川普來比,阿鍵老師直覺覺得歐巴馬比較值得學,但問他為什麼,他也講不出來。John老師說沒關係,一開始先跟著喜好走。聽得夠多,判斷力自然會出來,你會發現沒有誰一定比較好,只有適不適合。從容沉穩的演講節奏,跟熱血、直接丟金句的風格,各有各的場合。

    只背單字?你會變成很奇怪的人

    很多台灣人學英文的習慣是背單字,聽到一個好用的字就拼命用。John老師說,這樣你不會變成歐巴馬,只會變成一個很奇怪的人。

    他舉例,以前看浪漫喜劇,裡面的角色什麼都要說literally,你只學這個字,就會變成開口閉口literally、有點煩人的那種人。小時候電影裡大家都在this is cool、that is cool,酷了半天,後面該接的話全沒學到。

    阿鍵老師補充,英文是一塊一塊的language chunk,硬拆成單字反而怪。與其背單字,不如整句整句抄下來,連前後文一起記。通勤時做英文跟讀(shadowing)也是同樣道理,跟的是整句話的語氣和節奏,不是單一個字。

    學到了就拿出來用,別藏在口袋

    書裡有一章叫Don't wait until you know who you are to get started。John老師說,武俠小說的主角常常掉進山洞撿到秘笈,隔天又有人傳他一甲子功力,好像每天都在吸收,從來不用出手。現實生活可沒這種好事。

    學到什麼,就趕快拿去用。今天在捷運上聽到一句好用的辦公室英文,明天茶水間遇到外國同事就試著講講看。不用等到「準備好了」才開口,我們的字正腔圓,也是老師一個字一個字雕出來的。

    說到copy,John老師搬出火影忍者的卡卡西。大家叫他拷貝忍者,一堆招式都是copy來的,可是沒人敢小看他。為什麼?因為他copy完還能remix,做得比原版更漂亮。

    你不是copycat,你在收集未來的自己

    很多人學英文會卡在一種心態:模仿別人好像很遜,好像自己是冒牌貨。這集John老師給了一句很適合貼在螢幕旁邊的話:I am collecting the voice I'm going to have.

    人生有限,John老師也很想跑遍兩百多個國家,但就是做不到。可是透過YouTube、Wikipedia,還有一群老師朋友的人生故事,他收集了好多別人走過的路。每一點都是養分,慢慢把自己養成更厲害的版本。

    所以下次在台北辦公室聽到外國同事一句講得很漂亮的英文,別不好意思。偷起來就對了。

    如果線上會議九點開始,你會幾點上線呢?八點五十?還是九點整準時按下去進場?本週的《英語咖啡館》John 老師和 Angel 老師要來聊聊不同文化對「時間」的理解,原來「準時」這件事,每個地方的定義都不太一樣喔!

    Angel 老師也在這集分享了航空業飛行前報到的真實觀察,大家明明約了同一個時間集合,有人提早半小時就坐好,有人卻是最後一刻才走進來,你猜猜最後到的是哪裡的同事?答案可能跟你想的不一樣喔!

    If an online meeting starts at 9:00, what time do you log in? 8:50? Or do you click in right at 9:00 on the dot? This week on English Cafe, John and Angel discuss how different cultures understand “time.” It turns out that being “on time” is defined quite differently in different places!

    In this episode, Angel also shares real observations from pre-flight check-ins in the aviation industry. When everyone agrees to gather at the same time, some people are seated half an hour early, while others walk in at the very last moment. Can you guess which region’s colleagues arrived last? The answer might surprise you!

    國際時事跟讀 Ep. L297: Tesla's New Roadster Comes with Rocket Thrusters

    Highlights 主題摘要

    • Tesla has unveiled a thruster-equipped Roadster built with SpaceX, nearly nine years after its first prototype.
    • Musk calls the car financially minor, but one analyst says it will become Tesla's flagship showcase.
    • An analyst expects modest sales as Tesla shifts its focus from human-driven cars to robots and robotaxis.

    Tesla has finally unveiled its second-generation Roadster, nearly nine years after first showing a prototype, and says production will begin in 2028. At a SpaceX test site in McGregor, Texas, the white two-seater, developed with Elon Musk's rocket company, drove upside down on a ramp using a suction system, then fired built-in thrusters to leap over a truck, twisting in mid-air before landing. Tesla shares rose 5% in premarket trading the following day.

    特斯拉終於發表第二代 Roadster 跑車,距離首度展示原型車已近9年,並表示將於2028年投產。這輛白色雙座車由執行長馬斯克旗下火箭公司 SpaceX 參與開發,在德州馬格里戈的 SpaceX 測試場,靠吸附系統倒掛在坡道上行駛,接著啟動內建推進器躍過一輛卡車,在空中扭轉車身後落地。隔天,特斯拉股價在盤前交易上漲5%。

    The car arrives with a long history of missed deadlines. In 2017, Tesla promised deliveries by 2020 and a range of 620 miles on a single charge; the new model manages just over 300 miles, less than half that figure. Musk has played down its financial importance, calling it a "small potato situation" in 2023. Even so, Morningstar analyst Seth Goldstein argued that it would become Tesla's halo car, a flagship designed to showcase a brand's finest engineering and technology.

    這款車的交期一再跳票。特斯拉2017年曾承諾2020年交車,單次充電可跑620英里;如今新車續航里程略高於300英里,不到當年承諾的一半。馬斯克本人也淡化這款車對公司財務的重要性,2023年形容它「不過是小事一樁」。不過,晨星(Morningstar)分析師戈德斯坦(Seth Goldstein)認為,Roadster 將成為特斯拉的「光環車款」,也就是車廠用來展現頂尖工程與技術的旗艦車。

    According to Tesla, the Roadster can reach 60 miles per hour in under a second and exceed 230 miles per hour. No price was announced, but the reservation page lists a $50,000 deposit for a "Performance" version and $250,000 for a "Thrust" version, while an invite-only "Rocket" variant comes with a full flight system. Whether such features are legal on public roads remains unclear. Gene Munster of Deepwater Asset Management called the show "an engineering flex with no commercial value," and some observers suspected Musk was drumming up interest in merging Tesla and SpaceX.

    特斯拉表示,Roadster 從靜止加速到時速60英里不用1秒,極速超過每小時230英里。官方並未公布售價,但預約頁面顯示,「Performance」版需支付5萬美元訂金,配備加速推進器的「Thrust」版則要25萬美元;另有僅限受邀的「Rocket」版,配有完整飛行系統。這些功能能否在公共道路上合法使用,目前仍不明朗。深水資產管理公司的 Gene Munster 批評這場發表會「只是工程炫技,沒有商業價值」;也有人猜測,馬斯克是在為特斯拉與 SpaceX 合併造勢。

    Commercially, the Roadster is unlikely to move the needle. Goldstein expects annual sales of about 2,000, a fraction of the 1.6 million vehicles Tesla sold last year. The company is also pivoting away from cars built for human drivers: this year it stopped selling the Model S and X to make room for its Optimus humanoid robots, and it is building Cybercab, a robotaxi with no steering wheel or pedals. With third-quarter results due on October 21, analysts expect investors to focus on margins and cash flow rather than mid-air stunts.

    就商業面來看,Roadster 很難帶來實質影響。戈德斯坦預估這款車每年約賣2,000輛,只是特斯拉去年160萬輛銷量的零頭。特斯拉也正把重心從人類駕駛的汽車移開:今年停售 Model S 和 Model X,騰出產能生產 Optimus 人形機器人,並正在打造沒有方向盤和踏板的自駕計程車 Cybercab。特斯拉將在10月21日公布第三季財報,分析師認為,投資人更在意的會是利潤率和現金流,而不是空中特技。
