[New trends in crypto assets in 2024Q4] Grayscale Research released the latest list of high-potential assets, adding 6 new blockchain projects: Sui, Bittensor, Optimism, Helium, Celo, and UMA Protocol. These projects cover areas such as high-performance blockchain, AI system development, Ethereum expansion, decentralized physical infrastructure and stable currency payments. Sui and Optimism focus on high-performance infrastructure. The former was built by former Meta engineers and has significantly improved transaction speed; the latter helps Ethereum expand and build a "super chain" framework. Celo focuses on stable currency payments and has gained attention in Africa; UMA provides oracle services for Polymarket and others to ensure the fairness of the prediction market. Helium leads the decentralized physical infrastructure network, expanding to millions of hotspots. Bittensor builds a global decentralized AI platform based on economic incentives. In this round of adjustments, projects such as Render and Mantle were rotated out of the top 20. You need to be cautious when investing in crypto assets, as you face unique risks such as smart contract vulnerabilities and regulatory uncertainty, and the assets are highly volatile and are considered high-risk investments. Macroeconomic and financial market developments may also affect valuations, with the U.S. election becoming a major risk event. Investors should consider digital asset investments in the context of their investment portfolio based on their personal financial goals. #加密资产盗窃 # #区块链新动向 # #投资风险 #加密市场急跌

Cryptocurrency ATMs become the new favorite of scammers, revealing the wealth trap behind them Hey, friends, today we are going to talk about a new gadget that seems high-tech but is played by scammers - cryptocurrency automatic teller machines (ATMs). Do you think these machines are for the convenience of ordinary people like us to withdraw Bitcoin or something? Hey, think too much! In fact, they have become the "wealth fast lane" for scammers. Scammers' new favorite: cryptocurrency ATM First, let's see how scammers use these machines. Imagine that Annie, an innocent victim, was fooled by scammers to put cash into the cryptocurrency ATM. The money was instantly converted into cryptocurrency and then mysteriously disappeared in offshore exchanges. Tracking these transactions is not an easy job, because these exchanges are like the villain's nest in the movie, hidden in areas that are unwilling to cooperate with US law enforcement. Regulatory loopholes and huge losses Why do scammers like cryptocurrency ATMs? Because the identification requirements of these machines are much looser than those of online exchanges, it is simply a paradise for scammers! According to the first public calculations by the FBI, the United States lost more than $120 million to cryptocurrency ATM fraud in 2023 alone! Yes, you read that correctly, this is a huge loss. Legal loopholes and high fees The question is, how high are the operating expenses of these machines? Up to 20% of the transaction amount! In other words, for every dollar you put in, 20 cents goes into the pockets of the operators. To make matters worse, due to the lack of effective supervision of the operation of these ATMs due to the lack of laws and enforcement, the scammers are simply like ducks in water. The dark side: money laundering and terrorist organizations What’s more worrying is that these ATMs are not just a simple scam. They are also used to support terrorist organizations and conduct large-scale money laundering. Yes, the plots in the movie really exist in reality, and we are witnessing it. #以太坊ETF批准预期 #山寨季何时到来? #WazirX黑客事件 #美国大选如何影响加密产业? #加密资产盗窃 $BTC $SOL $ETH

🚨🚨Big news! Shocking! Hackers stole millions of dollars overnight, and the mobile phone number became the culprit of "collaboration"? Recently, netizen Khan broke the news that he woke up on June 3 and found that his mobile phone had become a "brick" with no signal. What made him even more upset was that the mobile phone number was reissued online, and the hacker used it to hack into his email and OKX account, and robbed all the crypto assets he had worked so hard to save! 😱It is reported that the hacker's methods are superb. First, he used the mobile phone number to reissue and retrieve Khan's email password using the mobile phone verification code, and then easily broke through the security line of the OKX account. When Khan logged into his account, the scene in front of him made him dumbfounded-the assets in the account had been cleared! 🤔However, the hacker seemed to be a little "stingy", because there was a 24-hour withdrawal freeze period for logging in to the new device, and they were unable to withdraw the assets directly. So, they thought of a "clever trick"-transferring about 1.46 million US dollars of crypto assets through C2C transactions! Imagine that the merchant has not had time to pay, and the hacker can't wait to click "Confirm Transaction". This speed is faster than lightning! 😅However, this incident also sounded the alarm for us: network security is no small matter, and you must protect your mobile phone number, email address, password and other sensitive information! Otherwise, the next "victim" may be you! #黑客攻击 #欧洲杯开赛 #加密资产盗窃 #C2C入金 #币安用户数突破2亿 $ETH $SOL $BNB {spot}(ETHUSDT)
