Star's Response to Li Feng Debt Dispute: Debt Issue to Be Handled by Legal Means
Today, Star addressed the issue of Molecular Thread co-founder Li Feng borrowing 1,500 BTC from Star and failing to repay before going missing in a social media post.
Star stated: “One can’t always dwell on negative history. Look to the future, contribute more positive energy. Let the debt matter be handled by the law. Best wishes to every entrepreneur.”
BlockBeats reported today that Li Feng has been exposed for involvement in coin issuance and failure to repay the 1,500 BTC (link: https://www.theblockbeats.info/flash/323313).
Previously, a shared agreement from Star showed the two parties renewed their loan agreement with Hu Zhibin as guarantor. The initial agreement, signed Dec. 17, 2014, expired Dec. 16, 2016. A new agreement was signed March 30, 2017, “due to personal reasons of Party B requiring an extension of the loan period.” Li Feng defaulted again, leading Star to publicly disclose the unpaid loan issue.

South Korea Plans to Require CEXs to Assume "No-Fault Liability," Upbit Hack Incident Serves as Catalyst
**December 7 (South Korea) — The South Korean government is pushing ahead with legislation to introduce a banking-style "no-fault compensation" rule for major cryptocurrency exchanges.**
The Financial Services Commission (FSC) reportedly is evaluating a requirement that virtual asset service providers (VASPs) would be liable to compensate users even if not at fault for losses from hacking attacks or system outages.
Currently, this mandatory compensation applies only to traditional financial institutions and electronic payment firms. The push stems from a November 27 Upbit exchange security incident: roughly 44.5 billion Korean won (≈$30.1 million) in assets were transferred to an external wallet in 54 minutes. Existing rules barred regulators from forcing Upbit to compensate users. Korean financial watchdogs also cited frequent crypto industry system failures in recent years.

CME Data Center Operator Acknowledges Operational Misconduct, Leading to Last Week's Trading Halt
Last Friday, December 7, CME Group—the world’s second-largest derivatives exchange—faced a trading halt lasting over 10 hours across multiple markets due to a data center outage. Data center operator CyrusOne confirmed Saturday the outage stemmed from human error.
A CyrusOne spokesperson said on-site staff and contractors at its Aurora, Illinois facility failed to properly drain the cooling tower ahead of frigid weather, causing the system to ice up, operate under overpressure, and trigger uncontrolled equipment temperatures. While CyrusOne claimed it took comprehensive, decisive steps to restore cooling, CME noted in a statement that the data center’s initial remediation efforts worsened the issue, ultimately knocking out multiple cooling units.
The incident underscores CME’s high reliance on a single data center. The facility was originally owned by CME, sold to CyrusOne in 2016, and bound by a 15-year leaseback agreement. CME said Saturday it is fully aware of the severe impac
