Hackers Launder $1.39 Billion Stolen from Bybit, Impacting ETH Price and THORChain’s Transaction Volume

In a well-coordinated cyber heist, hackers have successfully laundered an incredible 499,000 ETH, valued at around $1.39 billion, taken from the cryptocurrency exchange Bybit. The laundering process, which lasted 10 days, used several advanced methods and made ample use of mixers to obscure the heist's trail. Despite serving as a massive wake-up call about the security of digital assets, the hack has managed to impact the cryptocurrency market in a big way. While the price of Ethereum (ETH) is down around 23% during the same period as the hack, the price of many other cryptocurrencies is down, too. The Complex Money Laundering Operation The scheme to steal from Bybit, one of the top crypto exchanges, was large and messy. Almost 500,000 ETH got taken. And as you can imagine, moving that much cryptocurrency into the real world is hard to […]

Bitcoin Dips Below $80K: Is a Bounce Imminent or Are Further Losses Ahead?

Hack on @pumpdotfun X Account Leads to Fraudulent $PUMP Token Promotion and $600K Gain for Hackers

In a troubling development today, the official X account of @pumpdotfun was taken over by hackers and used to promote a bogus token called $PUMP. The malicious actors behind the hack got the account's influence to work for them and got people to take notice of the $PUMP token. They effectively pumped their holdings and dumped them after driving the price up (actually getting people to buy the token). Once the hackers were done with their operation, the price of the $PUMP token dropped, which led to the crypto market losing a lot of money and vulnerable investors losing a lot of money. https://twitter.com/AlphaFirst_/status/1894986593372717170?t=YI8nHAu_ujjRRPvxwlZvrA&s=19 A Sophisticated Attack: Links to Previous Hacks The hack of the @pumpdotfun account was not an isolated incident. Blockchain sleuth ZachXBT has linked it to other high-profile attacks, like those on Jupiter DAO and DogWifCoin. If […]

Dogecoin $DOGE Faces Steep Decline: A Look Into the Current State of the MemeCoin’s Network and Market Activity

Dogecoin ($DOGE), the well-known meme coin that surged into the limelight in 2021, is seeing a dramatic downturn in its network activity and market performance. Once thought to have a good chance of being an up-and-coming cryptocurrency, it now looks like a has-been. Long-term holders and investors are facing what some describe as a denial phase, and various metrics and a gut feeling say that an old stalwart has serious challenges ahead, with contraction of trading volume and five-figure-dollar amount futures market, as well as the sharpest drop-off in the Dogecoin network that anyone can remember. Declining Network Activity: A 95% Drop For holders of Dogecoin, one of the worrying indicators is a steep slide in network activity. The count of active addresses on the Dogecoin network has nosedived by a stunning 95% in just a few months. In November […]

$MELANIA Whale Dumps Massive Stash, Suffering $14.6 Million Loss as Price Plummets

A prominent whale address in the $MELANIA market recently sold off 13.975 million $MELANIA tokens in one transaction, and that caused the token's price to drop 14.5%. The sale occurred just four hours ago and exchanged a good amount of $MELANIA for 14.316 million USDC. This is a singular event that spoke volumes about the volatility of the market and how one big player in it can dramatically impact prices. If you're an investor, you probably don't want to see this kind of thing happen to the asset you're holding. What makes this story even a little suspect with us is that this dramatic price drop incurred a $14.6 million loss for the whale—half of what they originally invested. Whale’s Painful Exit: A $14.6 Million Loss in Just One Transaction The whale's decision to divest completely from $MELANIA is a […]

A History of Success: $TRUMP Investment Pays Off… Briefly The journey of the whale with $TRUMP began with an impressive success.
