According to Crypto.news, the hacker organization BlueNoroff, linked to North Korea, uses fake Zoom and Microsoft Teams meetings to analyze cryptocurrency users before deploying malware.The hackers first take control of accounts belonging to trusted contacts in the cryptocurrency industry, then send seemingly normal meeting links via Calendly and other platforms, directing users to counterfeit Zoom/Teams domains. Once users enter the fake meeting page, it quietly scans the wallets in their browsers and decides whether to continue the attack based on the wallet's value. The fake meeting will prompt users to "update Zoom/Teams" or run commands, which actually download malware (supporting Windows and macOS). The malware will steal browser keys, system data, and Telegram sessions.

According to Protos, Grayscale's SEC filing for the Worldcoin ETF reveals that about 90% of the circulating WLD tokens are concentrated in 100 wallets, contrasting with the project's vision of "fairly distributing to as many people around the world as possible."The document also acknowledges that the World Chain's sequencer operates in a centralized manner, with upgrade functions coordinated and controlled by a few participants from the World Foundation, Tools for Humanity, and Optimism, and governance "is still primarily guided by the World Foundation."

According to The Block, Trezor's Chief Business Officer Danny Sanders refuted recent criticisms of cryptocurrency hardware wallets made by blockchain investigator ZachXBT.Earlier this week, ZachXBT posted on Telegram, "All hardware wallets are complete garbage and I do not recommend using them for important tasks such as signing transactions or storing funds," and suggested that users use a dedicated iPhone to store funds and sign transactions.In response, Sanders acknowledged in an interview that firmware/software updates for hardware wallets can sometimes interfere with urgent or large transactions, and that the user experience can indeed be "clunky," understanding the users' frustration. However, he opposed ZachXBT's blanket statement: while hardware wallets may not be the best single solution for advanced users managing large amounts of funds, they are not garbage.He pointed out that compared to hardware wallets, the operating system and connectivity features of an iPhone present more "attack risks." For the average cryptocurrency user, hardware wallets remain the best self-custody option available.

According to FinanceFeeds, security researchers have discovered an information-stealing malware targeting macOS devices that is attacking cryptocurrency users. This malware can hijack Telegram Desktop sessions, steal passwords and wallet databases, further controlling user accounts and stealing digital assets. Currently affected wallets and applications include software wallets like Exodus, Atomic, Electrum, Wasabi, and Monero.The malware is capable of extracting sensitive information from macOS Keychain, Safari Cookies, Apple Notes, Telegram Desktop, and multiple cryptocurrency wallet-related databases, including login credentials, authenticated session files, wallet data, and browser extension information. Security analysis points out that the danger of this attack chain lies in its reliance not on a single wallet vulnerability, but on collecting various types of data from the device, linking device intrusion, account takeover, wallet cracking, and mnemonic phrase theft together. Among these, Telegram Desktop sessions have become a key target.Attackers can copy authenticated Telegram local session data and restore the login on another Mac device without needing to enter a phone number, verification code, or Telegram two-factor authentication password. This means that Telegram 2FA cannot provide complete protection in this attack scenario, as the attacker is not performing a new login but is exploiting an already trusted local session. For cryptocurrency users, the risks are further amplified. Since Telegram is widely used for exchange customer service, project communities, OTC trading, and wallet communication, once attackers gain access to user session permissions, they could impersonate the victim, read private chats, locate asset information, and even spread malicious links to contacts.

Argentinian federal judge Marcelo Martinez ordered the identification and freezing of a group of wallets related to Libra, after the federal police's cybercrime technology department tracked the flow of related funds across multiple cryptocurrency networks since May. The investigation involves 8 wallets marked as "Libra team," which are directly related to the token issuance.Reports indicate that 4 of these wallets had previously pooled nearly $57 million into one address, which had been frozen and then unfrozen by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On May 10, the related funds were transferred to a Tron address through an interoperability protocol, amounting to nearly $500,000. At least 10 of the 17 transactions passed through Binance, with 8 wallets associated with Bybit, 2 with OKX, and 2 with Bitfinex.Some users of the related $8.2 million in funds may be identifiable through the KYC rules of centralized exchanges. The remaining funds are currently managed by Libra Trust, which plans to allocate them as funding to Argentine companies before November, with 71 applications pending approval.

Coinbase argued that the wallet's private key is entirely controlled by the user, but failed to prove that the transaction was initiated by the wallet holder, nor did it demonstrate the existence of security measures to prevent this outcome.The court made its ruling based on relevant provisions of the Consumer Protection Law and ordered Coinbase to refund the full amount along with statutory interest.

According to The Block, Binance Co-CEO Richard Teng stated at the Reuters NEXT Asia summit in Singapore that after Binance suspended services to some EU users, about 70% of users' withdrawal assets flowed to self-custody wallets, with only 30% transferred to licensed platforms that comply with MiCA regulatory requirements.Richard Teng indicated that this data raises questions about the regulatory goals of MiCA. He pointed out that self-custody wallets are not subject to the anti-money laundering (AML) and KYC regulatory frameworks of regulated trading platforms, and the risk may actually increase once user assets are transferred to self-custody.Previously, Binance proactively withdrew its application for a MiCA license in Greece after it failed to be approved before the July 1 transition deadline, and suspended related services to affected EU users. Richard Teng stated that Binance has not given up on the European market, and several EU countries have invited it to reapply for local licenses, although he did not disclose specific countries.In addition, Richard Teng mentioned that Binance plans to continue accelerating its expansion in the Asian market, having already obtained relevant licenses or permissions in markets such as Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Indonesia, Australia, India, and Pakistan, and expects to gain more regulatory approvals this year. Currently, Binance's global user base has increased to approximately 323 million.
