@zooko Looks like it was from a compromised call with @samanthawyap almost a full month ago. Didn’t even connect the two events until now.

🚨 WARNING (AGAIN)
DPRK threat actors are still rekting way too many of you via their fake Zoom / fake Teams meets.
They're taking over your Telegrams -> using them to rekt all your friends.
They've stolen over $300m via this method already.
Read this. Stop the cycle. 🙏
@ACJRnetwork My real account has the same username and phone number (left). The scammer has access to old chat history and is using +19714177746 (right).

Journalists, be aware of a current Telegram scam with one of our members, Mitchell Moos
Be extra cautious of any invites to join any meetings originating in TG, even if you think you know the person — these scams are elaborate
@andrewjiang@googlefi Fi user here and had my Telegram was hijacked. Was the text the only evidence you had that there was an attempt to change your voicemail PIN? Trying to verify it was the same exploit.
@zooko Interesting, I do use GoogleFi. I didn't find any evidence that my voicemail pin was swapped (never set it up even). But on iOS, Fi is integrated natively into Apple voicemail (July 2025), so it may be Android-specific
If you have chats with me delete for both to prevent the data from getting exfiled.
Context: hijacker changed the registered phone number and email on my (active!) account and somehow bypassed 2FA. Neither my phone # or recovery email are compromised. Been in crypto since 2017 and this is my first incident; still trying to figure out how they pulled it off.
Time to contact @telegram's glacial customer support...

@AviFelman@rootslashbin@DepecheNode_ Are you lumping in entrepreneurs into the managerial class here? I’ve found serial founders/builders to often have those same traits while having more variance in interests & belief systems.
@ViktorBunin Politicians scared of the optics because American voters think public servants should work for free. Instead you get opaque palm greasing and insider trading, which is way worse imo
Bottom line?
SEC dismissal removes regulatory overhand but doesn't address:
❌Questionable leadership
❌Poor business execution
❌No product-market fit / users
❌Pattern of employee mistreatment
❌Financial mismanagement
❌98% token decline
The dismissal ≠ innocence. #DYOR before investing.
Personally I would not touch $DRGN with a fifty-foot pole. But for whichever fools are still punting on a dead project, it's your money!
Amazed that @j0j0r0 is still peddling $DRGN... don't let the SEC dismissal fool you. Case was dropped due to policy changes under Trump's crypto taskforce. NOT because @dragonchain was vindicated.
Let me break down why this project remains dubious despite the pump...
@j0j0r0@dragonchain@Disney@Starbucks The current narrative: Dragonchain's victory announcement reads like pure PR spin, thanking Trump and calling it a "historic victory." But dismissals due to policy changes ≠ vindication of business practices or technology merit. The fundamentals of Dragonchain are still garbage.
