Hacks, exploits, and chaos

Today is International Day for the Eradication of Poverty. You get it. We're ERADICATING poverty in our portfolios! 

Now, let’s quickly cover what matters most. Because we value your time—time is Moni.

What’s up?

Market update: Bitcoin continues its rally towards $70k+. Recently, BlackRock’s CEO Larry Fink stated that Bitcoin could rival the U.S. real estate market in terms of capitalization.

U.S. real estate market = $50 trillion  

Bitcoin market cap = $1.34 trillion

That's a potential growth of 38x.

One of the top financial figures on the planet is enthusiastically promoting Bitcoin. Isn’t that amazing?

Everyone’s talking about it: Yesterday, hackers exploited Radiant Capital for $51.5 million. In situations like this, you should head to revoke.cash and cancel permissions from compromised platforms.

The cybersecurity company Ancilia tried to warn users about the hack and... accidentally reposted a scam link.

And just hours before this hack, people were complaining en masse about receiving emails supposedly from “Ledger”. The emails claimed you needed to update your Ledger wallets, promising a new "Clear Signing" feature for safer transactions.

Of course, there’s no such feature—it's all a SCAM. You click, connect your wallet, and kiss your money goodbye.

More important news:

– Tonstakers has been added to the list of projects in the Ton Open League. We’ve been staking $DUREV there for a while. If you staked before September 12, you’d better restake.

– A project inspired by Trump hasn’t even managed to sell 1 billion tokens out of the 20 billion issued in over a day.

They’ve reportedly sold only 840 million tokens. Well, obviously, a DEFI project requiring KYC sounds like a joke.

Glad we skipped it yesterday. The gut instinct didn't fail me again.

You’re not getting my donations, Donald.
