OpenSea Case. Sherlock?...

Hey Moni Maker 🖋

Today is International Mother Language Day. Language is a handy thing, but it's even more enjoyable. You can speak in English with the occasional use of Russian words and use Solidity simultaneously. There you go. 

Digest is out there waiting. Let's go!

Over the weekend, we witnessed NFT collectors lose $1.7 000 000 of jpegs and Ethereum. All the dough flowed into a wallet now called Fake_Phishing5169.

OpenSea CEO Devin Finzer said, “We have confidence that this was a phishing attack. We don’t know where the phishing occurred.” But the company believes that the attack didn't come from OpenSea’s domain and that no legitimate OpenSea emails, nor the OpenSea site banner, led to the attack."

What do you think? They're the ones who f@cked up and now they're blaming it on some dudes? Or are they?...

Missed the expert opinion? Analysts think the geopolitical situation is so geopolitical it could launch the anti-Bitcoin rocket below $40,000. Now, that's not a jet for me! There's a lift here.

But there are also opinions from Mr Lifshitz, managing partner and chief investment officer of ExoAlpha, who believes this whole situation is just a distraction from the rate/inflation problem.

The Federal Reserve has barred senior officials from a number of investment activities, particularly those involving individual stocks, bonds, cryptocurrencies and commodities.

The Federal Open Markets Committee announced the new rules on February 18. 

lol.

In response to a comment that crypto exchanges will likely freeze people's crypto at the request of police, even without judicial consent, Powell (aka Kraken CEO) agreed that such action was inevitable.

"100% yes it has/will happen and 100% yes, we will be forced to comply," said Powell. "If you're worried about it, don't keep your funds with any centralized/regulated custodian. We cannot protect you."

Buterin told in one of his interview: 

"A lot of people who are deep into crypto and especially make things welcome the bear market. They welcome the bear market because when prices go up so much in the long run – it’s obviously a lot of people rejoice – but it invites a very short period of time. Speculative attention."

BEARZ.

This time we stocked up on $HNT for a hundred $$$. Ugh, the portfolio is getting fatter and someday it will bring in millions.... Or total rekt, lol. 

Drop by the chat and tell us what should we take the long term in a week?
