2. Beware: Binance account hacked due to malicious browser plugin, $1 million stolen

A Twitter user disclosed that his browser cookies were hijacked due to the malicious Chrome plug-in Aggr. Hackers used the hijacked cookies to bypass password/2FA verification to log in to his Binance account and transferred his $1 million assets through cross-trading. The malicious plug-in works by collecting and forwarding users' cookies, allowing hackers to hijack active sessions and disguise themselves as users to control accounts without passwords or 2FA. Binance responded that the cause of the incident was that the user's computer was hacked, and the security customer service handled the freezing request within 1 minute and 19 seconds, and checked the cross-trading transactions and suspect accounts. For such cases that are not related to Binance, compensation cannot be made, and help will be provided from the platform's perspective in the future.

6. Wu said this week's macroeconomic indicators and analysis: US non-farm payrolls, ECB interest rate decision

Summary

Last week, the annual rate of the US core PCE price index in April was 2.8%, the same as last month, and the Fed officials spoke in a neutral tone. This week, the focus will be on the US non-farm payrolls data in May and the ECB's interest rate decision. If the US labor market continues to slow, it will further support the Fed's interest rate cut prospects. At the same time, the market generally expects the ECB to fire the first shot of interest rate cuts among major central banks.

Last week review

●Fed Beige Book: Consumers are resisting price increases, and the overall outlook is more pessimistic to a certain extent.

●Federal Reserve - Bostic: I don't think there will be a rate cut in July. If the data supports it, we will remain open to it. If September is suitable for a rate cut, we will cut it; Williams: I don't think there will be a rate hike, but there will be a rate cut at some point. The current monetary policy is restrictive and inflation will be close to 2% next year; Logan: It is too early to consider a rate cut now.

●The revised annualized quarterly rate of the U.S. core PCE price index in the first quarter was 3.6%, the estimate was 3.7%, and the initial value was 3.7%.

●The number of initial jobless claims in the United States for the week ending May 25 was 219,000, in line with expectations of 218,000. The previous value was revised from 215,000 to 216,000.

●The U.S. core PCE price index was 2.8% year-on-year in April, the same as the previous month.
