A Very Bad 24 Hours for Crypto

This is an edition of Over/Under, a newsletter on the latest in prediction markets, gambling, and the evolution of everyday risk. Sign up here. Last night, hackers stole approximately $6.3 billion from Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange. The whole thing reportedly took about 20 minutes. It was the biggest theft in the history of the sector, and also probably the biggest financial heist of all time, topping the $1.5 billion ByBit hack of 2025 and Sadam Hussein’s $1 billion robbe

The State Department Is in Disarray

This is an edition of The Atlantic Daily, a newsletter that guides you through the biggest stories of the day, helps you discover new ideas, and recommends the best in culture. Sign up for it here. Many a heavy-handed metaphor has been constructed on the claim that Washington, D.C., is built on a swamp. This hoary cliché is also, for the most part, untrue—but the neighborhood Foggy Bottom, home to the State Department, really is former marshland. This is perhaps fitting. Stories of decadence, de

When a Movie Hinges on a Kid’s Performance

The film Josephine opens with one of the most upsetting sequences in any movie this year. In it, the titular 8-year-old girl accidentally witnesses a woman being raped at a park near her home. In subsequent scenes, the filmmaker Beth de Araújo, who based the incident on an episode she experienced in childhood, carefully explores how the event affects Josephine and her family, and sheds light on larger questions: how parents can struggle to make sense of a child’s trauma, and how attempts to prot

The Internet Might Need to Be Rebuilt From Scratch

Subscribe here: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube AI hacking swarms are poking holes across the internet at such a rate that some cybersecurity professionals have dubbed this month “Black October.” The AI-cybersecurity professional Alex Stamos argues that it’s time to be proactive rather than reactive, and that might mean rewriting the code for the internet in newer programming languages that could make all of our online systems and personal information safer. He joins the Galaxy Brain host C

The Currency of the Journal Article Is Collapsing

Weak scholarship was once easy to spot at a glance: The signs included bad writing, a lack of relevant citations, and little engagement with previous scholarship, such as a paper that promised a “novel” conceptual framework without acknowledging the many other papers making similar claims. As an associate editor of a bioethics journal, I’d make a quick “desk reject” decision and not send these articles for peer review, which effectively killed any hope of publication. Now I can say: AI is affect

Israel’s Latest Last Chance to Save Itself

I live on the same street in north Tel Aviv as Gali Baharav-Miara, Israel’s attorney general. Occasionally I see her walking through the neighborhood, a bodyguard following 20 feet behind. Her home is guarded around the clock. To the government and its supporters, she is an unelected official obstructing the elected right’s ability to govern. To liberal Israelis, she is one of the last institutional barriers between democracy and unchecked political power. The national argument plays itself out

The Gestures We’ve Forgotten

This is an edition of Ordinary Extraordinary, Ian Bogost’s guide to making everyday life vivid. Sign up for the newsletter here. On a recent trip to the local planetarium, I visited the gift shop to waste some time before the star show. Inside, I found one of those penny-press souvenir machines, the kind that turns an ordinary cent (plus two quarters as a fee) into a copper oval with an impression of the attraction. I don’t typically carry cash of any kind, let alone coins. But the device had a

An Adaptation That’s Both ‘Excellent’ and ‘Bizarre’

This is an edition of the Books Briefing, our editors’ weekly guide to the best in books. Sign up for it here. Somewhere in the back of my closet sits a strange relic: a virtual-reality viewer made of cardboard. The only thing I remember watching on it, in 2017, was a 10-minute adaptation of George Saunders’s Booker Prize–winning debut novel, Lincoln in the Bardo. Produced by The New York Times, this 3-D, 360-degree experience was effectively a staged excerpt of the book—which features Abraham L

Where No Man Has Gone Before

Sir Patrick Stewart—an officer of the Order of the British Empire, a Laurence Olivier Award–winning alumnus of the Royal Shakespeare Company, and the owner of an era-defining voice—was not ashamed to be most famous for being the lead on a 1980s science-fiction spin-off television show. As he wrote in his 2023 memoir, “I shall forever be known first and foremost, by most people, for playing Jean-Luc Picard”—the stern and steely captain of the starship Enterprise on Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Redistricting Isn’t Going as Republicans Planned

Don Davis was born in Snow Hill, a small town on the coastal plains of North Carolina. Growing up, he spent Sundays worshipping at the local Presbyterian church and summers working in the surrounding tobacco fields. At 29, he was elected Snow Hill’s youngest-ever mayor. He went on to represent the town of about 1,500 in the state legislature and then in Congress. The Democrat is now running for a third term, but in a very different district: If he wins, his constituents will no longer include hi

Forget Grit

This article was featured in the One Story to Read Today newsletter. Sign up for it here. In retrospect, 2016, the year that Angela Duckworth published Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance, may have been a high-water mark for the dogged go-getter‑ism she was selling. Her book landed just as Hillary Clinton, that avatar of tenacity, seemed poised to win the presidency and Alexander Hamilton was rapping on Broadway about not giving up his shot. You could still just barely discern within eac

What Horror Films Have to Say About God

The Christian podcaster Allie Beth Stuckey issued a Halloween-themed warning to her audience last week: Don’t watch scary movies. “How many times do we read throughout Scripture: ‘Do not fear,’” Stuckey wrote in a post that got more than 1 million views. For a Christian to “purposely consume content that is meant to make us scared,” she said on her show, amounts to “a direct contradiction of Jesus’s command to not fear or be anxious about anything.” She eventually deleted the post—even many fell

Just Noting That Your Candy Corn Is Made of Bug Secretions

Here’s a tip if you ever want to ruin a Halloween party. Seek out the most squeamish-seeming adult or child you can find in the act of consuming candy corn. Then tell them they just filled their mouth with bug secretions. If this fact alarms you—or if you’re an inveterate hater of candy corn and thus think that you have been spared—I regret to inform you that by eating many classic Halloween candies, you are, to some extent, eating bugs. More precisely, you are eating a bug by-product that is in

The Real Threat of Election Interference

In a speech to the nation in July, Donald Trump said that reports from intelligence agencies showed that American elections were profoundly vulnerable to foreign interference. China had “bought, stolen, or hacked” voter data in 18 states, he said, and he implied that foreign operatives had somehow been able to manipulate actual votes. Reports by the CIA and other agencies that he made public that day did not back up his most extravagant claims. But Trump suggested that a foreign government may h
