Interesting to read... always be extremely careful what we invest in! 👇
Binance helped catch the person behind ZKasino, a platform that defrauded a lot of investors.
By understanding how crypto transactions work and using publicly available information, Binance's investigative team identified the person responsible for the scam.
This led to the arrest of the 26-year-old suspect on April 29 by the Fiscal Intelligence and Investigation Service (FIOD), seizing over €11.4 million in crypto, real estate and luxury cars.
ZKasino has caused many people to lose money.
It is the first arrest in the ZKasino fraud case, where investors lost at least $33 million in crypto.
The platform initially promised users a return on investment within 30 days.
However, according to Dutch authorities, the smart contract suggests that the platform never intended to return the funds.
Even after the arrest of the main suspect, the stolen funds continued to be moved, suggesting that several other people may be involved.
It appears that Binance and the authorities are continuing to work together to recover the lost funds and bring those responsible for the scam to justice.
🧵 Donald Trump appoints a leader for AI and Crypto to the White House!
1️⃣ Donald Trump announced the appointment of David O. Sacks, founder of Yammer and former COO of PayPal, as the “White House A.I. and Crypto Czar.” *(White House's "AI and Crypto Czar").
👉 Sacks will coordinate policies for Artificial Intelligence and cryptocurrencies, considered essential for US competitiveness.
2️⃣ What will David O. Sacks do? It will develop a legal framework to provide clarity to the crypto sector. He will lead the Presidential Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.
3️⃣ Trump supports crypto and AI. 🔸 "David will guide the Administration's policy in two critical areas for America's future," Trump said on Truth Social. 🔸 This is a continuation of his support for innovation after appointing former SEC Commissioner Paul Atkins to reform the agency from January 2025.
4️⃣ Why does this move matter? 🌐 Under the Trump administration, emerging technologies such as AI and crypto will receive greater support to ensure the US advance in these industries. #AI#Crypto#USPolitics#Trump
And this is how the altcoin season begins, with coins from past cycles in the first phase, because those in retail, who have been on the lookout for more than two years, currently only know these projects.
Wait and see when they find out that#SUIis the#Solanakiller, that memecoins are already a trend, that#Aptos(as well as#SUI) is a project derived from Facebook and see there potential, that#OMand#ONDOare projects that will tokenize real-world stuff, that#Pythis much cheaper than#LINKand does the same thing only for less money, that we have an ongoing AI narrative, that we have RWA and DePin and lots of stuff like that.
Let's see then what #FOMOthey get 😂... And we're at the turning point and we're waiting, because it's not like crazy people we've resisted these years.
I'm not happy if someone comes in when they shouldn't and doesn't know what to do. Both myself and others are here to help them if they need it, but I don't think anyone can blame us for being glad that soon all our hard work over the last few years is starting to pay off.

🟩 Bitcoin: the strongest month in history! 🚀 +$26,400 in one candle 🟩
💥 Bitcoin just broke records with a monthly gain of $26,400 on a single candle! It's the biggest monthly increase ever!
🏆 BTC price closed November at $96,400, marking a new monthly ATH and a +37% increase in one month! It is the second best result of 2024. 🚀
🔥 Economist Carl Menger said this is just the beginning: 👉 RSI on monthly timeframe confirms a major bullish breakout. 👉 The indicators show that the rally has sustainability.
💎 Bitcoin enters December on a bullish wave.
🧠 Will BTC break $100K by the end of 2024, in 2025 or not at all?
🧵 Why is the memecoin sector in hard mode, what can we learn from this and where should we go?
➡️ The TikTok craze was and is a short and intense illusion... and unrelated to the subject, I think we feel it now here and in other situations very well.
➡️ Returning to crypto, many promising projects quickly failed, leaving new traders with a bitter experience. Quick turnovers and lack of sustainability were the main factors.
➡️ Recent examples: several hype coins lost their value almost instantly, revealing themselves to be weakly supported projects, intended more to beg rather than build. One clear lesson: DYOR (Do Your Own Research) is more important than ever.
➡️ At this moment, the market's attention is directed towards altcoins from the old guard (Algorand, XRP, Ada, etc.), but which offer some stability. Memes, on the other hand, experience extreme volatility.
➡️ Declining dominance of#BTCmay bring even more challenges for meme coins. When the market becomes chaotic, investors look for safer havens, which leaves memcoins vulnerable.
➡️ However, one sector that continues to resist pressure is that of AI. Why? Because it comes with a long-term vision and practical applicability. This seems to be the trend worth focusing on in the next period...I, for example, took some#HEART@humansdotai today, a RO brand project and no, I have no affiliation or deal with them even though I have invested in the seed phase a few years ago.
➡️ There are still quite a few projects in the AI category that are at a black friday price and have huge potential.
Bottom line: adaptability is key in crypto. Don't get attached to passing trends. Notice which sector offers real value and follow it. At this point, AI seems to be a better choice than memes.
