Crypto Phishing Scams 2024: How Hackers Stole $500K in a Month

The post Crypto Phishing Scams 2024: How Hackers Stole $500K in a Month appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News In his recent research, On chai investigator ZachXbt has revealed an elaborate phishing attack that saw a threat actor make about $500k in the last month after attacking more than 15 high-profile X accounts among them Kick, Cursor, Alex Blania, The Arena, Brett and others. The accounts were used to control meme coin scams by obtaining phishing email credentials. 1/3 A threat actor has stolen ~$500K over the past month by compromising 15+ X accounts (Kick, Cursor, Alex Blania, The Arena, Brett, etc) from sending targeted phishing emails which impersonated the X team to steal credentials and then launch meme coin scams. pic.twitter.com/HEWQdVICgJ — ZachXBT (@zachxbt) December 24, 2024 Phishing Scheme Unveiled In regards to this heist, the hackers mimicked the official emails of the X team and faked a copyright infringement to make sure the targets immediately rushed to buy the meme coins. People were enticed to go to fake pages where they were redirected to provide new passcodes for accounts, including two-factor authentication (2FA) . After the accounts were compromised, the attacker engaged in meme coin scams, correlating all 15 ATOs through a single shared deployer address. Funds stolen in these scams were then transferred across the Solana-Ethereum blockchain to make it harder for law enforcers to track down the assets. .article-inside-link { margin-left: 0 !important; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; border-left: 0; border-right: 0; padding: 10px 0; text-align: left; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li { font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-weight: 600; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0; display: inline-block; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li:last-child { display: none; } Also Read : Hyperliquid Faces $500M Outflows Amidst Lazarus Group Hack Fears , Security Recommendations ZachXBT encouraged the users to rush with the account strengthening to minimise such risks. Key recommendations include: Avoid email reuse: Do not use one email address for different services. Implement strong 2FA: Use it instead of the SMS code 2FA for important accounts, resorting to a security key instead. Verify communications: Confirm the authenticity of all emails especially those in the name of official forums. It’s important that the crypto community stays on the watch and continues fighting to put an end to such activities from scammers. In particular, it aligns well with the current state of security affairs, a solid defense is the only effective means against ever-burgeoning cyber threats. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!

Top 5 Ethereum Tokens to Turn $1K into $1M by December 31

The cryptocurrency market is heating up again after recent Bitcoin price crash. If this recovery catches on, it could trigger another alt season. To prepare for this outlook, here are the top five Ethereum tokens to turn $1K to $1MM before December 31. Top 5 Ethereum Tokens to Buy In December For $1M Profit The crypto market shines optimistically as Bitcoin forms a higher low and instills hope of a recovery rally today. As a result of this bounce, here are five Ethereum tokens to buy to turn $1K to $1M by December 31. Shiba Inu (SHIB) Shiba Inu price is one of the top meme coins of 2021 that still has huge potential to rally considering its lackluster performance in 2024. According to Santiment’s data, Net Realized Profit/Loss (NPL) indicator saw a massive negative spike of -233 million SHIB, indicating capitulation. Typically, capitulation events occur during severe downtrends, where holders panic sell. These points serve as a good reversal points and buying the dip could lead to huge gains. Hence, SHIB price seems primed for a quick rally, which is also an Ethereum token. SHIB NPL Pepe Coin (PEPE) Pepe Coin price could be the next good contender to turn $1K to $1M before December 31. Santiment’s supply on exchanges has dropped from 214 trillion tokens to 160 trillion between July 8 and December 25. This 25% decline indicates that investors are getting increasingly confident on PEPE, the frog-based crypto’s performance. Therefore, Pepe, an Ethereum coin, looks ready to shoot higher. If history repeats, PEPE could mirror the 2021 rally and help investors convert $1K to $1M. PEPE Supply on exchanges Dogecoin (DOGE) Dogecoin, the original meme coin, has shot up 350% in the past two months and shows promise of a further increase. With the 30-day MVRV dipping down to -22%, the opportunity, it shows that the short-term holders are capitulating. This is an area where price has previously formed bottoms, leading to a reversal. Furthermore, long-term holders tend to accumulate DOGE from capitulating long-term holders, adding credence to the bottom formation. PEPE Supply on exchanges Popcat (POPCAT) Popcat (POPCAT) price has crashed 70% since the November 17 peak of $2.08. As POPCAT bounces off the $0.64 key support level, the chances of a recovery rally are high. This cat-based meme coin surged 2,600% between March 2024. After getting listing on major exchanges, the uptrend for Popcat has stalled. However, if the previously seen momentum makes a comeback, this meme coin could trigger a massive rally. POPCAT/USDT 1-day chart Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) Fartcoin price is another meme coin that has recently taken off. The token surged 5,700% from November 3 to December 21. Since the meme token is relatively new, it has massive momentum and could take off, triggering another leg up that could help investors turn $1K to $1M before December 31. FARTCOIN Ethereum tokens are showing strength in the past few days and have potential to capture more upside in the coming days. This trend signals opportunities for investors looking to grow their portfolio. As a result, these ETH-based coins could help investors turn $1K to $1M before December 31, 2024.

Top Angel Investor Warn Against MicroStrategy Buying Too Much Bitcoin

The post Top Angel Investor Warn Against MicroStrategy Buying Too Much Bitcoin appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Jason Calacanis, the “World’s Greatest Angel Investor,” shared his thoughts on MicroStrategy’s plans to buy even more Bitcoin. Calacanis warned that Bitcoin’s core principle of decentralization could be compromised if a single entity holds too much of the digital asset. In the meantime, bitcoin price has recorded a 4% gain in the last 24 hours with the market cap hitting $1.94 trillion. MicroStrategy Bold Plan Buy ALL Bitcoin MicroStrategy, led by Michael Saylor, has been one of Bitcoin’s biggest supporters, steadily growing its holdings. The company recently bought 5,262 BTC for $561 million, paying an average price of $106,662 per Bitcoin. This brings MicroStrategy’s total Bitcoin holdings to an impressive 444,262 BTC. Despite holding about 2.2% of Bitcoin’s total supply, the firm’s recent statement about wanting the ability to issue enough shares to buy all the Bitcoin in circulation has sparked concerns. Saylor has made it clear that his ultimate goal is to own $3 trillion worth of Bitcoin. He also believes that MicroStrategy’s market cap could rise to $10 trillion. This strategy isn’t just about growing the company’s asset base. It’s also a calculated move to boost their investment in Bitcoin, Michael Saylor says he’s going to keep raising billions in cheap capital until MicroStrategy owns at least $3 trillion in Bitcoin and has a market cap of $10 trillion dollars. A $10 trillion market cap is a 120x from here. pic.twitter.com/zb1ll55sAG — The ₿itcoin Therapist (@TheBTCTherapist) December 6, 2024 The Warning on Bitcoin’s Ownership Meanwhile, Jason Calacanis voiced his worries, pointing out the risks of one entity owning too much Bitcoin. He warned that Bitcoin’s reputation as a decentralized financial tool could be at risk. He thinks that if one company owns 10% or more of all Bitcoin, it could make people feel Bitcoin is no longer fair. you break the game of bitcoin if any one individual owns too much — I’m guessing that number is like 10% If $mstr acquires too much, everyone will rightfully think they’re working for @saylor , resent him deeply and move on to another more fair “game” Which “game” would they… pic.twitter.com/pLNGiXAQEG — @jason (@Jason) December 24, 2024 “You break the game of Bitcoin if any one individual owns too much—I’m guessing that number is like 10%,” he said. Calacanis believes that if MicroStrategy’s dominance grows further, it could lead to mistrust. If Bitcoin feels controlled by one person or group, where will people go? He suggested that users might leave Bitcoin and look for another cryptocurrency that feels more fair and decentralized. This is a big worry since Bitcoin’s strength lies in being open and equal for everyone. Bitcoin’s Price Update Recently, Bitcoin’s price has seen a significant rise, going from $95K to $98,314, marking a 4% increase in just 24 hours. This could mean that Bitcoin is about to test the $100K resistance again. If it breaks through this level, it might soon reach its all-time high. However, despite the price surge, the Bitcoin ETF market experienced a notable outflow of $338.4 million on December 24, 2024. The biggest contributors to this outflow were IBIT, with a negative flow of $188.7 million, and FBTC, with a negative flow of $83.2 million.
