Odaily News A Massachusetts judge, Christopher Barry-Smith, ruled on Tuesday that the state has the authority to prohibit prediction market Kalshi from offering sports betting within its jurisdiction. This ban could take effect as early as this Friday. If implemented successfully, it would become the first such ban in the United States.

In the ruling, the judge stated that any company wishing to operate a sports betting business in Massachusetts must comply with state laws, including obtaining the necessary license from the Massachusetts Gaming Commission (MGC). Previously, Kalshi argued that it is regulated by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), and therefore state authorities have no jurisdiction to intervene. However, the judge rejected this argument. Kalshi began offering sports betting in January 2025, and by May of the same year, its sports business accounted for 70% of its total revenue. (DLnews)

Odaily News Tom Lee stated in an interview that due to geopolitical tensions, tariff risks, and political divisions, the cryptocurrency and stock markets will experience a sharp decline in 2026. Tom Lee expects the U.S. stock market could see a 15% to 20% correction this year. However, as the Federal Reserve shifts to a dovish policy and quantitative tightening ends, the market will stage a strong rebound by year-end.

Regarding Bitcoin, Tom Lee said he still expects Bitcoin to reach a new all-time high this year. He believes this new high will be a key milestone for the market to completely move past the deleveraging event of October 10th. Tom Lee pointed out that energy, basic materials, and gold are quality allocation assets for 2026, while the AI and blockchain industries will continue to benefit from growth dividends. Additionally, Benjamin Cowen, CEO of Into The Cryptoverse, expressed a similar view, suggesting that metals might outperform cryptocurrencies again in 2026.

Odaily News OpenAI announced that the company has begun deploying an AI-based age prediction system designed to identify ChatGPT users under the age of 18 and automatically enforce content restrictions. The system assesses user age by analyzing signals such as account age, active hours, and behavioral patterns, rather than relying solely on the date of birth provided during registration. Accounts identified as belonging to teenagers will be subject to strict restrictions on violent and sexually sensitive content. OpenAI stated that if adult users are mistakenly identified, they can complete age verification by uploading a selfie or ID document through the third-party service Persona to restore access. Additionally, this update includes new parental control features, allowing parents to set quiet hours and receive notifications when the system detects their child experiencing significant emotional distress. The system is currently live in the ChatGPT consumer plan and is expected to be rolled out in the European Union in the coming weeks.

Odaily News Three security vulnerabilities have been discovered in the official mcp-server-git maintained by Anthropic. These vulnerabilities can be exploited through prompt injection attacks, allowing attackers to trigger them via malicious README files or compromised webpages without requiring direct access to the victim's system.

The vulnerabilities include: CVE-2025-68143 (unrestricted git_init), CVE-2025-68145 (path validation bypass), and CVE-2025-68144 (argument injection in git_diff). When combined with a filesystem MCP server, these vulnerabilities could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code, delete system files, or read the contents of arbitrary files into the large language model's context.

Cyata noted that because mcp-server-git does not perform path validation on the repo_path parameter, attackers can create Git repositories in any directory on the system. Furthermore, by configuring a clean filter in .git/config, attackers can run shell commands without requiring execution permissions. Anthropic assigned CVE identifiers and submitted fixes on December 17, 2025. Users are advised to update mcp-server-git to version 2025.12.18 or later. (cyata)

Odaily News As global macroeconomic uncertainties intensify, the market trends of precious metals and base metals are drawing significant attention. Joni Teves, a precious metals strategist at UBS, stated in a recent interview that the demand for diversified allocation is the core driver behind the current rise in gold prices. Institutional investors, retail investors, and central banks are all increasing their gold holdings to hedge against macroeconomic uncertainties. She expects gold prices to maintain upward momentum in the first half of the year. If concerns about the Federal Reserve's independence continue to escalate, gold prices could potentially surge to the $5,000 per ounce mark in the first half of the year. Silver, benefiting from the tailwind of rising gold prices and its own narrowing supply-demand gap, may challenge the $100 per ounce level this year. Driven by energy transition demand, the copper market is experiencing tightening supply-demand dynamics, which is expected to lift its price center. (Jin10)
