    Filecoin Group Grants $5.8 Million to Edward Snowden's Press Freedom Foundation

    Media is a tough place these days. Journalists who report basic facts are accused of spreading "FUD," they get hammered for perceived biases, and they must work in an Internet economy that often rewards speed over accuracy. They also get arrested, beat up, and even killed for trying to reveal the truth. According to the Freedom of the Press Foundation, on-the-job journalist arrests increased 1200% in the U.S. in 2020, while twenty-one journalists worldwide were murdered because of their work.  T...

In emails to Decrypt, Filecoin and Binance are chalking it up to an “incorrect use” of APIs, as opposed to a bug. The issue resembled a “double spend”—a system-breaking defect, usually brought on by an attack on a blockchain, that allows the same cryptocurrency to be spent twice.
