According to PANews, SatoshiLabs founder Alena Vranova has raised concerns about the increasing incidents of wrench attacks, personal assaults, and kidnappings targeting Bitcoin and cryptocurrency holders. Vranova noted that at least one Bitcoin holder worldwide is kidnapped, tortured, or extorted weekly, sometimes facing even more severe consequences. She emphasized that even small-scale cryptocurrency investors could become targets for violent criminals. "It may seem like an issue only for Bitcoin OG investors, but that's not the case. We've seen kidnappings for as little as $6,000 worth of cryptocurrency and even murders for $50,000 worth," Vranova stated. She further highlighted that over 80 million Bitcoin holders and cryptocurrency users have had their personal information leaked online, with 2.2 million records including home addresses. Vranova added that these attacks are correlated with Bitcoin prices, with an increase in frequency during bull markets.

According to BlockBeats, U.S. Treasury Secretary Besent stated in an interview with Nikkei News that U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff policy is designed to bring manufacturing back to the United States. Evaluating the economic policies since Trump took office, Besent described them as a 'three-legged stool' consisting of tax, trade, and deregulation. Besent highlighted that the tax aspect was addressed with the rapid completion of the 'Great and Beautiful Act,' which was signed into law on July 4. Regarding trade, he anticipates that related work will be largely completed by the end of October. As for deregulation, it is an ongoing effort, with President Trump having clearly mandated that for every new regulation introduced, ten old ones must be eliminated. The shift towards tariff policy in trade is primarily aimed at rebalancing the current account deficit, Besent explained. He noted that over time, tariffs should act like a melting ice block, reducing imports as production returns to the U.S.

According to PANews, a report by Koi Security reveals that the Russian hacker group GreedyBear has stolen over $1 million in cryptocurrency over the past five weeks. The group utilized 150 weaponized Firefox extensions, nearly 500 malicious executable files, and numerous phishing websites to carry out their operations. Koi Security's Chief Technology Officer, Idan Dardikman, stated that the Firefox extension attacks have been the most lucrative method for the hackers so far, contributing significantly to the $1 million theft. This strategy involved creating fake versions of popular cryptocurrency wallets like MetaMask, Exodus, Rabby Wallet, and TronLink. The hackers employed a technique known as Extension Hollowing to bypass market security measures, initially uploading non-malicious versions of the extensions and later updating them with harmful code. To further deceive users, the group posted fake reviews of the extensions, creating a false sense of trust and reliability. Once downloaded, these malicious extensions would steal wallet credentials, enabling the hackers to access and steal cryptocurrency. Another major tactic used by the group involved nearly 500 malicious Windows executable files, which were distributed on Russian websites offering pirated or repackaged software. These executables included credential stealers, ransomware, and trojans, further expanding the group's reach and impact.

Two very different approaches to the same problem: how to make cryptocurrency accessible to the masses.

DeFi TVL hit a new high of $270 billion, but market attention shifted to NFTs; AI enthusiasm cooled, and vulnerability losses increased.

This change stems from technological innovation and is also promoting the deep integration of crypto finance and traditional systems.

As the light of innovation shines, are the shadows that once made us pay a heavy price in the P2P storm - arbitrage mentality, regulatory lags, legal ambiguity, and mass enthusiasm and fragility - quietly clinging to this emerging model?

In recent years, "cryptocurrency-stock linkage" has become one of the hottest trends between the capital market and the crypto world.
