According to Beating AI News, the flagship model GLM-5.3 will be open-sourced at 10:00 AM Beijing time on August 28th.

GLM-5.3 was actually launched on the Coding Plan as early as August 14th, followed by the API release. The model weights will finally be available for download tomorrow, a full two weeks late, for a somewhat unusual reason. According to Zhipu, GLM-5.3's cybersecurity capabilities grew "more quickly than expected" during post-training; it not only became better at finding vulnerabilities but also began to learn how to plan complete exploit chains across multiple steps. Therefore, the official team conducted a security assessment and hardening before releasing the weights.

In official evaluations, GLM-5.3 achieved an 84.5% score in the CyberGym vulnerability discovery test, slightly higher than Mythos 5's 83.8% and GPT-5.6 Sol's 83.6%. In ExploitBench, which focuses more on exploitation, GLM-5.3's score improved from 24.4% for GLM-5.2 to 54.4%, but still significantly lagged behind Mythos 5's 78.0%. Zhipu also stated that the model has discovered 2436 vulnerabilities in 269 open-source projects, of which 1097 are classified as critical or high-risk.

GLM-5.3 uses the same base model as GLM-5.2, and all these improvements come from post-training.

According to BlockBeats, on August 27, data showed that despite the ongoing geopolitical standoff between the United States and Iran, shipping volume in the Strait of Hormuz has rebounded slightly.

Kpler data shows that a total of 10 commodity carriers were trackable through the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday, a slight increase from 8 on Tuesday, but still below the 10-day moving average of about 15. Two medium-sized product tankers, one liquefied petroleum gas carrier, one Panamax tanker, and three handysize tankers entered the Strait of Hormuz from the Gulf of Oman. One medium-sized product tanker, one bitumen carrier, and one bulk carrier exited the waterway from the Gulf side.

Meanwhile, shipping volumes in another key waterway, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, slowed for the second consecutive day. Kpler data shows that 19 commodity carriers passed through the strait on Wednesday, including six oil tankers and one Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC). This was down from the 24 vessels that passed the previous day.

According to BlockBeats, on August 27th, the whale 0x0911, which initiated a "buy ETH, sell BTC" combination position two days prior, continued to add to its holdings. The notional value of the two positions has increased from approximately $20 million initially to approximately $29.38 million, an increase of about 46.9%.

As of press time, this address held 5,943.61 long positions in ETH, worth approximately $14.819 million, with an average entry price of $2,486.64 and a floating profit of approximately $39,000; simultaneously, it held 184.95 short positions in BTC, worth approximately $14.558 million, with an average entry price of $79,804 and a floating profit of approximately $201,000. The sizes of both positions remain roughly equal, with a combined floating profit of approximately $241,000.

When the position was established on August 25th, BTC had outperformed ETH by approximately 2.2 percentage points in the past 24 hours, with the average TWAP transaction value corresponding to a BTC/ETH ratio of approximately 32.20. Currently, the BTC/ETH ratio has dropped to approximately 31.57, a decrease of about 2% from that point.

Currently, both the ETH long position and the BTC short position are showing unrealized profits. If BTC/ETH continues to decline, the portfolio will continue to benefit. If it rises back to around 32.20, the existing unrealized profits will be given back. Transaction fees and funding rates are not yet included.

Previous news: The BTC/ETH exchange rate has fallen back to 32.2. How does the $20 million whale anticipate changes in the ratio?

According to BlockBeats, on August 27, Bitget data showed that Hong Kong-listed Zhipu's stock price rose by 10%.
