Revolut is reportedly facing a 10,000 $BTC ransom demand following the customer data breach.

The attackers allegedly tricked Revolut into handing over sensitive customer information by using a fraudulent request from an unauthorized account operating inside a legitimate government agency’s domain.

Revolut has confirmed that customer data was exposed, including information that may include identity documents, account details and full transaction histories, including Bitcoin activity.

Now, the threat actors are reportedly demanding 10,000 BTC and threatening to publish more customer data every day if Revolut doesn't pay.

I’ve also seen a Telegram screenshot showing the alleged hackers threatening to “release more data everyday until revolution pays for leaking their customers”, but I’d treat that specific ransom figure as an unverified attacker claim until Revolut, law enforcement or a credible independent investigation confirms it.

What makes this incident especially serious isn't just the data leak.

Linking someone's identity documents, financial information and Bitcoin transaction history creates a much more dangerous package for targeted phishing, social engineering and other attacks.

And if the attackers really are threatening daily releases, this could get much worse… fingers crossed.

Whale 0x0c17 is going heavy on the $MEME dip.

Over the past 10 days, the wallet spent $1.04M to accumulate 20.31M $MEME at an average price of $0.051.

That bag is now worth around $930K, putting the whale roughly $110K underwater.

And somehow, it still made the wallet the largest $MEME holder.

Either this whale knows something the market doesn’t, or it has an insane amount of conviction.

Hunter Biden really chose the most chaotic time and asked Elon Musk to UNBAN the $LAPTOP token’s X page, while insisting he’s NOT a scammer.

$LAPTOP is down roughly 99% from its launch JSYK, and now Hunter is asking Musk to bring the token’s X page back, while insisting he isn’t a scammer.

The timing makes it even funnier.

Musk was responding to Dario Amodei’s warnings about AI potentially becoming far more dangerous, and Hunter basically jumped into the conversation with:

“Any chance we could get ‘laptop token’ back up before then?”

Whatever you think about the token, watching a memecoin collapse almost 99% and then seeing its creator ask Elon Musk to restore its X presence is peak crypto comedy you can’t script…

I wonder what kind of resurrection can take the MC back there… maybe one strong enough to put its market cap a little closer to ETH again… 💀 no way!

$BTC had a rough week from almost every direction.

> Asia sold
> The US sold
> Europe also sold

There wasn’t much appetite to absorb the selling pressure, and even the US spot ETFs saw the strong inflow streak lose momentum after nearly $1B came in the previous week.

What makes this more interesting is the macro backdrop.

Oil is pushing inflation fears higher, rate-hike expectations are climbing, and investors are becoming more defensive across risk assets.

So this doesn't look like a Bitcoin-only problem to me.

Maybe its just a temporary risk-off week or the beginning of a longer period where capital keeps moving away from BTC, probably nothing!

$ETH ETFs are showing some serious demand lately.

They just recorded their fourth consecutive week of net inflows, with the latest week adding another strong wave of capital.

One big inflow day can easily be noise. Four straight weeks is harder to ignore.

Kinda suggests that investors are still willing to build $ETH exposure through regulated products, even with the broader market dealing with plenty of uncertainty.

12Hrs ago, a mysterious whale made a serious bet on $STONK

A newly created wallet withdrew 22,686 $SOL worth about $2.25M from Binance and has already spent 17,106 SOL, roughly $1.7M, buying 5.41M $STONK

Ain’t a small punt fam… The wallet is still sitting on roughly 5,580 SOL, meaning the buyer hasn’t even deployed the full amount yet.

Could be conviction, could be someone positioning ahead of something, or simply a whale taking a very high-risk bet on a meme.

Either way, $1.7M is a lot of capital to put behind one token, especially from a wallet that was created specifically for the move.

12時間前、謎のクジラが$STONKに大金を賭けて一発大勝負に出ました

新しく作られたウォレットがBinanceから22,686 $SOL（約225万ドル）を引き出し、すでに17,106 SOL（約170万ドル）を使って5.41M $STONKを購入済みです

これ、ただの小さな賭けじゃないよね… そのウォレットにはまだ約5,580 SOLが残っていて、買い手はまだ全額を投入していません。

確信があるのかもしれないし、何かの出来事に備えてポジションを取っているのかもしれない。あるいは、ただの“メメ”に対して超高リスクな賭けをするクジラなのかも。

いずれにせよ、特定のこの動きのために作られたウォレットからのものだとすると、たった1つのトークンに170万ドルもの資金を投じるのは相当なインパクトです。

ビットコインのゴールデンクロスは1週間ももたずに反転しました。

それは弱気材料に聞こえますが、サイクルが死んだと決めつけるのはまだ早いでしょう。

$BTCが約79.8Kドルから77.4Kドルへと下がる中で、50D移動平均が200D移動平均を再び下回ったのに加え、来週のFRB会合を前に利上げへの思惑が突然80%超まで跳ね上がっています。

興味深いのは、このくらい短い間隔のゴールデンクロスは、実際に定着するまでに複数回の試行が必要になることがある点です。

そして直近の3回の完了したゴールデンクロスは、その後それぞれおよそ50%、45%、60%の上昇に続きました。

ですので、私にとってはまだシグナルが無効になったわけではありません。

$BTCは単に、この回復がマクロの圧力を乗り切るだけの強さを備えているかどうかを試しているだけかもしれません。

$ETH went from around #100 to #61 among the world’s largest assets by market cap in just a few months.

Pretty serious motion, nahhh?

Blockstream is refusing to “pay a ransom” for the 598.5 $BTC still held by the attackers after the Liquid exploit.

3,400 BTC was returned after Blockstream confirmed the affected bridge nodes were patched.

But roughly $47M is still sitting with the people who exploited the bug.

And honestly, this is where the whole “white hat” label gets complicated.

If there was no agreement that allowed the attackers to keep a portion of the funds, what exactly is the $47M?

A bounty? A negotiation? Or simply money they decided to keep after exploiting the system?

Blockstream’s position is clear: Bitcoin can’t just be minted to make the loss disappear, and users shouldn’t have to take the haircut.

Now they’re going after the remaining funds work with law enforcement, exchanges and forensic specialists to trace the remaining funds if they are not returned.

The exploit may be patched, but the most interesting part of this story might be what happens to those 598.5 $BTC next.

Withdrawals to the Bitcoin network still remain disabled.

RWAsは勢いを増してきており、細部にも少し注意を払ってみたくなるかもしれません…

現在、ステーブルコインを除く「従来型資産」で約$39Bがオンチェーンに存在しています。

トークン化された国債（トークナイズド・トレジャリー）は依然として$15.86Bで最大ですが、株式が急速に追い上げています。すでに5,743件のトークン化株式およびETFがあり、月間の送金・移転取引高は$13.31B、保有者数は3.17Mで、過去30日で174%増加しています。

面白いのは、この市場がどんどん細分化されてきていることです。

$ONDOがトークン化株式をリードしており$850M、次いでbstocksfinanceが$643M、xStocksFiが$628Mです。

そして、資産は単一のチェーンに留まっていません。

$ETHはRWA価値として$17.5B、$BNB Chainは$5.6B、$SOLは$4.4Bです。さらにRobinhoodでさえ、すでにトークン化株式で$144Mに到達しています。

ただ、私はこの$39Bという数字は始まりに過ぎないと思います。

国債や株式をオンチェーンに載せること自体にも価値はありますが、より大きなポイントは「トークン化の後に何が起きるか」です。

> その資産は担保になり得ますか？
> それに対して借り入れはできますか？
> DeFiの中で利回り（イールド）を得られますか？
> 従来の市場インフラを待たずに、どの時間帯でもグローバルに決済できますか？

それが、RWAsをこれほど面白くしている理由です。

私たちは、単に従来型資産をオンチェーンに載せる段階から、それらの資産をオンチェーン上の金融プリミティブとして“使えるようにする”段階へと進んでいます。

$BTC is starting to look like it has a very clear ceiling and floor.

Glassnode says roughly 1.07M $BTC sits in the $83K-$86K cost-basis range, with long-term holders making up most of that supply.

That makes $83K-$85K more than just a resistance line. There are a lot of holders around there who could decide to sell if BTC gets back to their entry.

But the other side matters too.

If BTC loses $75K, Glassnode says the next major downside level could be around $60K.

So for me, the real battle isn't simply whether Bitcoin can break $85K.

It's whether buyers have enough strength to absorb the long-term holder supply above them, while keeping $75K intact below.

The next few weeks could tell us a lot about which side has more conviction.

$107Mがわずか20営業日でBitwiseのSolana ETFに流入しました。

BSOLは純流入として$107.4Mを記録し、資金が引き出されたのはそのうち2日だけでした。

$SOLが下落している一方で、これはなかなか興味深いですね。

それが次の$SOLの回復に向けた投資家のポジショニングなのか、それとも早期の機関投資家の確信なのかは、まだ判断できません。

$14K into a meme at a $256.6B market cap is crazy.

This guy bought 54.75 $LAPTOP and is now down $13,774 unrealized.

The wild part?

He entered at a valuation almost identical to Ethereum.

Imagine looking at a meme, seeing a $256B market cap, and thinking:

“Yeah, this is still early.” 💀

最強の3人の$LAPTOPトレーダーが、たった1分で合計$1m稼いだ…え、なにそれ？みんな本気じゃん？

Nearly $1.8M worth of $BTC is currently frozen on Osmosis after a double-spend exploit involving Nomic’s nBTC bridge.

The attacker reportedly created fraudulent nBTC that affected Osmosis’ Alloyed BTC.

Around 39.84 nBTC was impacted, representing roughly 36% of Alloyed BTC’s backing.

Osmosis has halted deposits, withdrawals, minting and redemptions while the situation is contained.

Osmosis itself wasn’t compromised, neither was IBC.

$BTCクジラは未実現利益の記録的な金額を積み上げています。

短期のクジラ利益は、CryptoQuantによれば指標史上最高水準となる$9.07Bに到達しました。

だからといって、$9Bがすぐに売り払われる（投げられる）ことを自動的に意味するわけではありません。しかし、それによって売り圧力が発生し得る余地が大きくなります。

そして、このような利益がより新しいクジラのポジションに集中している場合、BTCが少し下がるだけでも、その一部にとって現金化する理由になり得ます。

さて、これらの同じ利益が、今度は売り圧力に変わり得ます。

$ETH might be making one of its biggest UX improvements yet.

You can have $1,000 in USDC sitting in your wallet and still be unable to send it because you have zero $ETH for gas.

That makes little sense to a normal user.

EIP-8141 could change this by letting apps or wallets pay the gas on your behalf and charge you in stablecoins instead.

So you could hold USDC, pay the fee in USDC, and never need to keep a small amount of ETH around just to make a transaction.

But the interesting part goes beyond gas.

Frame Transactions could let wallets bundle things like approvals and swaps into a single transaction, while also making it easier to upgrade wallet security without forcing users to move their funds to a new address.

That is the kind of abstraction crypto needs.

Users shouldn't have to understand which token pays gas, approve one transaction, sign another, then move funds just because they upgraded their wallet.

If Ethereum gets this right, the blockchain becomes less visible to the user.

And honestly, that's probably how it should be, don’t you think?

検察が「初の」$BTCのRICO事件と位置づける、単一の被害者から暗号資産$263Mが盗まれたとされる事件で、18人が起訴された。

中心にいるのは22歳のマローン・ラム。ラムは、グーグルやジェミニのスタッフになりすまし、ワシントンD.C.の住民に対して、4,100 BTCへのアクセス権を渡すよう説得したとされている。

その資金は、途方もない贅沢な生活を支えたとされる。グループは報道によれば、たった1か月でLAのクラブで$4Mを費やし、ラムはさらに単夜で$569Kを使ったとされている。

しかも、犯行は刑務所の外だけで終わらなかったともされる。検察によると、ラムは収監後も命令を出し続け、ミアミにいる恋人にエルメスのバーキンバッグを届けさせたことなども含まれているという。

$263Mのビットコイン窃盗、RICO事件、そして――財産の使い方が小銭同然。くそっ！

Liquid Network’s attackers have returned $268M worth of Bitcoin.

About 3,400 $BTC has been sent back to the Federation wallet, while roughly 598.5 $BTC remains with the attackers as an unofficial $47M bounty.

Blockstream responded onchain with a PGP-signed “Yes, thank you.”

No public bounty agreement has been announced, and Liquid remains paused.
