☠️ A man bought a discounted cold wallet through the Chinese version of TikTok (Douyin) — and ended up losing nearly $7 000 000.

It was later revealed that the device had been compromised during manufacturing: the private key was leaked in advance, and all the funds were drained from the wallet within a few hours.

The stolen crypto was quickly laundered through Huiwang, a platform linked to underground crypto operations in Cambodia.

🪙 Bank of America has included Bitcoin in its list of the greatest innovations of the past 1 000 years.

In its research, the bank compared major technological breakthroughs — from the printing press to quantum computing — alongside global population growth, noting that Bitcoin is positioned at the steepest point of technological acceleration. It is seen not just as an asset, but as a systemic innovation capable of transforming the financial system, much like the internet and electric vehicles have done.

Although the bank does not yet offer direct BTC purchases, it is ready to adopt crypto payments as soon as clear regulations are in place.

💰 A trader sold 1 SPK for 19 600 USDT — due to a pool configuration mistake.

Before trading began, user teochew.eth created an SPK/USDT liquidity pool and added nearly 20 000 USDT — without any SPK tokens, just stablecoins. He intended to set the price at 1 USDT = 19 SPK (meaning SPK would cost around $0.05), but accidentally flipped the pair and set it as 1 SPK = 19 000 USDT.

Trader 0x7ef29 quickly spotted the error and sold 1 SPK for nearly $20,000, instantly draining all the liquidity from the pool.

🔴 Influencers and KOLs face no consequences for scamming followers and projects.
🔴 Courts often side with hackers due to outdated laws.
🔴 The potential long-term consequences are deeply concerning.
