$85 CASHCAT Play Turns Into $2 Million Surprise on Robinhood Chain

CASHCAT, a Robinhood Chain memecoin with a cat theme, pulled back Thursday morning after speculative buying earlier this week sent some early holders’ wallets into the millions. CASHCAT traded near $0.0896 on DEX Screener, down roughly 27% in the past 24 hours. The token had a market cap around $88.8 million with close to $5.8 million in liquidity on its main Uniswap V3 pool on Robinhood Chain. Liquidity refers to the tokens and cash available in the pool for trading—low liquidity can make it hard for holders to sell fast.

Apple’s iPhone 18 Launch Gets Upended: Foldable and Pro Models First, Standard Phone Slips to 2027

Apple is focusing production and shipments on its top three premium iPhone models for a second-half 2026 release — including its first foldable iPhone — while pushing the standard iPhone 18 launch to the first half of 2027, Nikkei Asia reported Friday, citing four insiders. This move signals a shift in Apple's marketing approach alongside supply-chain challenges, the report noted. Apple didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment, and Reuters has not independently confirmed the story. Apple shaking up its typical annual iPhone release schedule with a staggered rollout would disrupt the usual single launch window that suppliers prepare for. It also highlights how tight supplies—particularly memory chips—are now influencing product timing, not just costs.

Intel Panther Lake vs Apple M5: Early benchmarks show Intel ahead in multi-core — but not in everything

Intel’s latest Panther Lake laptop processors have outperformed Apple’s M5 in multi-core benchmarks during initial tests, marking a rare win for the PC chip giant against the silicon that dominates high-end laptops. This is crucial for Intel now, as it tries to improve thin-and-light laptops, where users want long battery life and speedy performance without a heavy cooling setup. A quicker chip also lets manufacturers rely more on integrated graphics, cutting the need for a separate GPU.

iPhone Air price cut in China sparks buyer anger as Apple leans on Lunar New Year discounts

BEIJING, January 27, 2026, 17:34 Apple’s ultra-thin iPhone Air has seen price cuts up to 2,500 yuan in China. The official Apple Store on Alibaba’s Tmall slashed 2,000 yuan, with regional subsidies pushing the starting price down from 7,999 yuan to 5,499 yuan, 36Kr reported. Released on Oct. 22, 2025, the phone sacrifices battery size and opts for an eSIM-only design, ditching the traditional plastic SIM card. Industry analyst Zhang Shule called this move "inventory clearance" aimed at "recovering funds," while Omdia’s Zhong Xiaolei noted that "most people can’t accept" shelling out flagship prices solely for a thin-and-light design.

Clawdbot goes viral — but security warnings trail the AI assistant behind the Mac mini rush

Cybersecurity company SOCRadar revealed that over 1,000 Clawdbot instances—an open-source AI assistant gaining traction—are exposed online. Their Shodan searches, which scan internet-connected devices, uncovered 1,009 Clawdbot gateways accessible directly from the public internet. The warning comes as Clawdbot escapes the developer niche and starts gaining wider attention, with explainer articles and demos popping up all over in the last 24 hours. Early users aren’t just seeing it as a chatbot—they’re calling it an “agent,” software that can actually perform tasks on a computer, not just respond to queries.

Will AI Kill the Smartphone? OpenAI, Meta and Amazon Fuel a New Gadget Threat

OpenAI, Meta, and Amazon are eyeing the smartphone's territory as generative AI forces Big Tech to reconsider the go-to device for searching, shopping, and chatting.

150 Million Passwords Exposed: Gmail and Facebook Logins Found in Open Database

An unsecured database holding roughly 149 million usernames and passwords — including 48 million tied to Gmail and 17 million linked to Facebook — was taken offline after a security researcher alerted the hosting provider, according to reports. Allan Liska, a threat intelligence analyst at Recorded Future, noted that “infostealers create a very low barrier of entry for new criminals,” pointing to tools available to rent for just a few hundred dollars a month. This exposure is serious since password lists like these enable hackers to take over email and social media accounts—gateways to resetting credentials on other platforms. They also fuel phishing attacks, where scammers impersonate banks, colleagues, or support teams to steal additional information.

Apple’s Siri could become a ChatGPT-style chatbot in iOS 27 overhaul, reports say

Apple is set to transform Siri into a built-in AI chatbot, marking a major shift for the voice assistant that’s fallen behind newer, more conversational rivals. The overhauled Siri, known internally as “Campos,” will be integrated throughout iPhone, iPad, and Mac software, replacing the existing Siri interface, Bloomberg News reported Wednesday. Why this matters now: chatbots have raised the bar for assistants, pushing users to expect extended conversations and instant drafting or summarizing capabilities. Since Siri is embedded in Apple’s flagship devices, changes to its functionality can quickly influence both user habits and developers’ approaches.

Honor Magic 8 Pro reviews call it a Galaxy S26 Ultra rival — but you might not be able to buy it

Honor’s Magic 8 Pro is already being hailed as a strong contender against Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra. Reviewers highlight its telephoto camera and display as standout features, though availability remains a major concern for potential buyers. Android Central also compared the phone to Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro Max and OnePlus’s 15, placing it firmly in the premium category. It’s a big deal now as the high-end Android scene shrinks to a battle over fewer, pricier models. Manufacturers are pushing camera tech, AI perks, and extended software updates to justify prices north of $1,000. Even minor changes in availability can make or break a phone’s chances of getting noticed.

Apple beats Samsung in 2025 global smartphone race as a memory crunch clouds 2026

Apple closed 2025 as the leading smartphone vendor globally by shipments, narrowly surpassing Samsung Electronics amid modest market growth, according to early data from IDC. Apple shipped 247.8 million units, grabbing a 19.7% market share, while Samsung followed with 241.2 million phones and 19.1%. Overall shipments for 2025 grew 1.9%, reaching roughly 1.26 billion devices. “Apple maintained its leadership for the third consecutive year,” said IDC’s Nabila Popal. Why it matters now: the supply crunch for key components is tightening, with memory—especially DRAM, the working memory inside phones—drawing renewed attention. U.S. chipmaker Micron announced it will shell out $1.8 billion to acquire a Taiwan fabrication plant from Powerchip. The move aims to ramp up DRAM wafer production starting in the

Honor told him the problem — purple fringing on ultrawide shots — was tied to the first device he received. https://www.cnet.com/tech/mobile/honor-magic-8-pro-phone-review/ https://muckrack.com/andrew-hoyle The timing matters because Honor is already taking pre-orders in parts of Europe and needs its camera pitch to land before buyers lock in to Samsung or Apple.
