Uniswap founder Hayden Adams warned that fake Uniswap search engine ads continue to appear, and some users have already lost all their high-value crypto assets as a result. Scammers purchase keyword ads such as "Uniswap" to feature fake websites prominently at the top of search results. The websites are highly similar in design to the official ones, and once a user connects their wallet and authorizes a transaction, their funds are immediately transferred. This type of attack relies on user signature authorization, not protocol-level vulnerabilities. An X platform user, "Ika," stated that after clicking on a fake link in a search result, she lost hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of crypto wallet assets. Screenshots she shared show the fake link prominently displayed at the top of the search results, making it highly deceptive. A similar incident occurred in October 2024, where scammers copied the Uniswap website interface and subtly modified buttons to trick users into connecting their wallets. Data from security firm CertiK shows that in January 2026, the crypto industry lost approximately $370.3 million due to exploits and scams, a new high in nearly 11 months and almost four times the amount lost in January 2025. A single social engineering attack resulted in losses of approximately $284 million. A total of 40 related security incidents were recorded in January. Analysis indicates that current crypto asset losses stem more from user-level risks such as phishing links, fake advertisements, and social engineering attacks, rather than underlying smart contract vulnerabilities. With the expansion of the DeFi ecosystem, brand imitation and interface fraud are becoming significant threats to user trust.

A recent report by blockchain analytics firm Elliptic identifies a "shadow network" of Russian-linked cryptocurrency exchanges that is circumventing international sanctions through massive crypto transactions. The report names five platforms, most of which are not yet sanctioned and continue to provide Russian entities with channels to bypass traditional banking regulations. ABCeX is identified as the largest of these, having processed at least $11 billion in cryptocurrency transactions. The report also notes that while Exmo claims to have withdrawn from the Russian market, on-chain data shows it still shares custodial wallet infrastructure. Rapira, registered in Georgia and with an office in Moscow, is alleged to have over $72 million in direct transactions with the sanctioned exchange Grinex. Bitpapa evades detection by frequently changing its wallet address. Aifory Pro provides cash-to-crypto services in Moscow, Dubai, and Turkey. The analysis suggests that the cryptocurrency-related sanctions-circumventing infrastructure previously targeting Russia has not disappeared but has instead spread to more platforms.

Nikita Bier, X's product manager and Solana consultant, posted on the X platform that the platform will launch an information disclosure feature next week. This move aims to warn users of undisclosed advertising content and implies that X may require users to clearly disclose paid promotional posts and take measures such as suspending accounts that do not comply with relevant regulations. Nikita Bier pointed out that some promotional content on the platform currently does not clearly indicate commercial partnerships or advertising nature, which may mislead users.

It is understood that Nikita Bier has already requested further disclosure of relevant advertising information in response to a paid promotion tweet from the prediction market platform Kalshi, warning that failure to comply will result in account suspension.
