🇺🇸🇰🇭127,271 bitcoin seized from a Cambodian scam operation. $15 billion. Every coin traced on-chain.

They know exactly who was robbed and exactly how much.

The victims want their money back.

The US is adding the bitcoin to its own reserve instead.

Unlike Zcash, the Monero supply is cryptographically auditable.

[TradeButWhy @tradebutwhy]

so you're telling me the guy who patched the zcash exploit had the chance to mint a couple billion free zec right before the fix and we're just supposed to assume he didn't

[Dr. Robert King @kingbtc]

20% of every block goes to the zec dev team and you don't think anyone exploited infinite mint during a 4 year period

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO

One of John McAfee's last messages to the world before he was murdered:

"Some of you may be living an existence of dissatisfaction... of emptiness... of longing."

"This sense of longing... is really your loss of freedom. And it is freedom for which you yearn."

"And you have none in this government. A government... which started out with the people being free and the government being our servants. It has become the government is free... and it's the people that are the servants."

"You have woken up to your reality. That is what you are feeling."

"Wake up a bit more and do something about it."

According to Arkham data, TFL has $1,992,696.99 left behind.

The LUNC community should gather a legal team, and pursue these funds.

Then go for the remaining 313 BTC left in the LFG reserve.

🚨 ALERT: TrapDoor malware is targeting crypto and AI developers via a supply chain attack, deploying 34 malicious packages to steal wallets, SSH keys, and API keys.

The malware also injects hidden instructions to hijack AI coding assistants including Claude and Cursor.

[Blockaid @blockaid_]

🚨 Blockaid detected an ongoing exploit targeting the SquidRouterModule on Ethereum and Base.

86 Gnosis Safes drained for ~$3M in ~2 hours.
All stolen tokens swapped to DAI via attacker-controlled Uniswap V3 pools.

connecting your wallet to 10 different bridge frontends is a massive opsec leak. you are leaving IP logs and behavioral footprints all over the place.

use an aggregator. minimize your surface area.

https://t.co/LqS6b2WmI0 acts as your shield. you interact with one clean, non-logging terminal. we handle the messy cross-chain routing in the background.

opsec tip: stop treating your wallet like a public keychain. isolate your swap environment, use the aggregator, and ghost.

[CyberSatoshi 𓆙 @XBToshi]

cross-chain is a literal meat grinder. look at that track record.

six completely different vectors. smart contracts. consensus code. deepfakes. pure mathematical cryptography. building actual permissionless native swaps is a death march. TC chose the absolute hardest path and paid the iron price in blood and stolen funds.

look around at the other "survivors". it's a tragedy. layerzero watched $290m get drained from kelpdao last month via poisoned RPC nodes. their whole defense was just blaming the dapp for a weak verifier setup. modular security just turned into modular accountability. passing the buck doesn't secure the dark forest.

now everyone has ptsd. every major project is rushing to integrate chainlink CCIP.
i totally get the panic. surviving these hacks is exhausting. but let's call CCIP exactly what it actually functions as: web3 SWIFT.

you get the chainlink brand. you get the ultimate safety net. but you hand over the keys. their risk management network can literally hit a kill switch, halt transactions, and censor the bridge at any moment. a perfectly secure, permissioned walled garden.

these projects pivoting to CCIP aren't upgrading their tech. they are buying insurance. they raised the white flag actually already.

we traded the permissionless utopia for bank-grade censorship. true decentralized routing is just too brutally hard to build. the endgame for 99% of bridges is just rebuilding traditional banking on-chain.

massive respect to the few still trying to build uncensorable dark infra.
it's a lonely road.

$38.5 billion lost to financial elder abuse in the most recent reporting period — a 206% increase from the previous year!

[Chainalysis @chainalysis]

Before stealing $9.8M from #THORChain, likely attacker-connected wallets spent weeks moving its own funds through Monero, Hyperliquid, and THORChain. On-chain activity ties them to the wallet that would later receive millions of stolen funds.

It started with Monero.

Bitcoin has now crossed 20,000,000 BTC mined.

The final 1M BTC will take another 114 years to mine.

I retired at age 51, and replaced ALL my bonds with $STRC.

I have filled my Cash and Income buckets with STRC and the other Strategy preferred stocks.
