SEC 因隐瞒加密货币报告遭监管机构起诉

Spot Ethereum ETFs in the U.S. just saw their biggest daily inflows since early February, signaling a potential turnaround after weeks of bearish sentiment. According to SoSoValue data, the nine U.S.-listed Ethereum ETFs brought in $38.74 million in net inflows on April 22, breaking a 10-day streak of zero or negative flows. That’s their highest daily intake since Feb. 4, when they saw a huge $307.77 million pour in.  This comes after eight straight weeks of outflows that totaled nearly $910 million. Most of the fresh capital went into Fidelity’s FETH, which pulled in $32.65 million. Bitwise’s ETHW also got a decent $6.09 million. The other funds didn’t move much, recording no inflows for the day. Overall, since launch, these Ethereum ETFs have attracted a total of around $2.26 billion. The surge in ETF inflows came right as Ethereum itself started recovering. On Tuesday, ETH spiked over 10%, climbing past the $1,700 mark for the first time since April 6.  The rally seems to be driven by renewed optimism following comments from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who hinted that tensions with China over tariffs could cool down soon.

That uncertainty, paired with Paul Atkins’ confirmation as SEC chair, seems to be giving crypto a boost. By Wednesday, Ethereum (ETH) had briefly touched $1,800, up around 14.2% in just two days. Meanwhile, Bitcoin (BTC) broke through the $90,000 resistance, rallying all the way to $93,385 and helping push the overall crypto market back above a $3 trillion valuation. Bitcoin, which had been moving in sync with stocks earlier this month, now seems to be decoupling from traditional risk assets. As of now, BTC is up 13.6% in April, beating gold’s 6.7% rise. On the flip side, both the S&P 500 and the U.S. dollar index are down about 5% for the month. Based on these conditions, analysts now think Ethereum could be gearing up for more gains. On April 23, market analyst Ash Crypto posted on X, saying ETH looks “ready to explode,” pointing out similarities with Bitcoin’s setup from late 2024. Still, some analysts warn it’s not all clear skies yet. According to analysts at crypto.news, ETH needs to break above the $2,000 mark and form a higher high to confirm a full trend reversal. Without that, this bounce could just be another short-term rally in a broader downtrend. Read more:What will it take for XRP to replace Bitcoin as digital Gold?

MetaMask co-founder said the company is still considering a native token launch and revealed how the team would go about announcing it. In a recent interview, the Block’s Head of Growth, Tim Copeland, asked the crypto wallet’s co-founder Dan Finlay if the company was still planning to launch a native token sometime in the future. Finlay simply replied to the question with “maybe.” When asked for more details, Finlay said that there’s still a lot of speculation surrounding whether the company will launch a token or not. It has been hinting at a token launch since as early 2021. At the time, MetaMask engineer Erik Marks prompted the idea of community ownership of the wallet through a token launch, which was followed by a post from ConsenSys CEO Joseph Lubin saying a “Wen $MASK?” Although there does not seem to be any concrete plan about a token launch, Finlay did reveal that if the MetaMask team were to launch a token, it would be linked directly to the user’s digital wallet. “You’ll be able to find a link directly in the wallet. You will not find some account on social media that you’ve never heard of giving you a link,” said Finlay in the interview. He said information about a native token launch from MetaMask would not be distributed to users through email or a text message. Instead, it will be announced through official channels.

Use the channels you already know to find communications from us,” Finlay continued. Moreover, Finlay cited the shifting regulatory regime in the U.S. under the more crypto-friendly Trump administration provides more “safety for far more kinds of token launches.” “Hopefully people take this opportunity to push the boundaries and establish precedence for things that we can all be doing,” said Finlay. In early March, MetaMask published a notice, warning users about accounts promoting fake MetaMask tokens. The platform clarified that claims suggesting the existence of a MetaMask token are false and potentially harmful. Back in 2023, it issued a similar notice debunking rumors of an official token airdrop linked to the platform. You might also like:No official MetaMask token: wallet provider warns of scam schemes

从加密货币女王到全球逃犯：OneCoin 的 Ruja Ignatova 携数十亿美元失踪，留下一个未解之谜。 目录“下一个比特币”第二次尝试逃亡？新机遇 八年来，全世界都在猜测鲁娅·伊格纳托娃 (Ruja Ignatova) 的命运：这位所谓的“加密女王”在推出经典庞氏骗局 OneCoin 后携款数十亿美元消失，留下一连串谎言、诉讼和一个永不消逝的谜团。 Crypto.news 采访了那些深入了解她的故事的人，以了解他们对她现在的看法。 简单介绍一下她的背景：Ruja Ignatova 于 1980 年 5 月出生于保加利亚，十岁时随家人移居德国，定居在巴登-符腾堡州的施兰贝格。她以优异的成绩完成了高等教育，于 2005 年获得康斯坦茨大学国际私法博士学位。她甚至还曾在牛津大学短暂学习过一段时间。 在以“加密女王”的称号声名狼藉之前，伊格纳托娃曾在麦肯锡公司担任顾问。然而，她的商业投资很快就出现了问题。2012 年，她和她的父亲普拉门·伊格纳托夫在德国因收购一家公司并随后破产而被判犯有欺诈罪。 “下一个比特币” 虽然可能不太为人所知，但 OneCoin 并不是 Ignatova 首次涉足加密货币领域。 2013 年，她参与了一个名为 BigCoin 的多层次营销骗局。报告显示，BigCoin 由 John Ng 创立，总部位于香港，该项目使用常见的 MLM 加密货币宣传语进行营销：“我们将成为下一个比特币。” 目前尚不清楚具体时间，但 Ronnie Skold、Sebastian Greenwood、Nigel Allen 和 Ruja Ignatova 本人在某个时候加入了该项目。长话短说，BigCoin 没能成功，因为它只是一个普通的庞氏骗局，根本没有区块链。2014 年，Ignatova 离开 BigCoin，与 Sebastian Greenwood 共同创办了一家新企业，也就是人们所熟知的 OneCoin。 第二次尝试 虽然鲁贾·伊格纳托娃 (Ruja Ignatova) 是该项目的策划者，但塞巴斯蒂安·格林伍德 (Sebastian Greenwood) 是 OneCoin 运营的关键人物。不过，与伊格纳托娃不同的是，格林伍德于 2018 年被捕并被判处 20 年监禁。 两人将 OneCoin 打造成一种革命性的加密货币，有望取代比特币。通过高调的活动和有说服力的营销，他们说服了数千人（甚至数百万人）进行投资，在全球范围内筹集了约 40 亿美元的资金。然而，与 BigCoin 一样，OneCoin 也没有在任何区块链上运行，这导致该项目在推出三年后崩溃。 你可能还喜欢：OneCoin 丑闻爆发，康斯坦丁·伊格纳托夫获释，对 44 亿美元欺诈行为表示悔恨 On the run? 正当当局加紧调查时，伊格纳托娃却消失了。2017 年 10 月，她登上了从希腊保加利亚起飞的航班……然后就消失了。没有留下任何痕迹。多年来，关于她命运的猜测多种多样，从整容手术到黑手党暗杀。一些报道甚至暗示，她是在爱奥尼亚海的一艘游艇上被谋杀的，这是保加利亚犯罪分子的命令，据称她的尸体被肢解并丢弃。 还有传言称，伊格纳托娃实际上可能在逃，藏匿在南非、迪拜甚至俄罗斯。 德国纪录片制片人约翰·冯·米尔巴赫 (Johan von Mirbach) 执导了 2022 年调查纪录片《加密女王——OneCoin 大骗局》，他并不相信有关伊格纳托娃死亡的理论。米尔巴赫在接受 crypto.news 采访时表示，他不相信有关她死亡的理论，因为有太多“试图伪造她的下落的失败尝试”。 “我与南非和德国的安全部门进行了交谈。目前，调查仍在进行中，她可能藏身于南非的何处。但没人知道她的真实下落。她可能在南非、迪拜，或者——正如你所说——在俄罗斯或其他地方。但我确信她还活着，因为有太多人试图伪造她的下落，但都失败了。” 约翰·冯·米尔巴赫 2022 年 6 月，联邦调查局将伊格纳托娃列入十大通缉逃犯名单，最初悬赏 10 万美元，以获取有助于逮捕她的线索。到 2024 年 6 月，赏金已增至 500 万美元。虽然伊格纳托娃的下落尚不清楚，但围绕她名字的法律诉讼至今仍在继续。 新机遇 例如，2024 年 8 月，在有消息称 OneCoin 发起人曾在阿拉伯联合酋长国投资豪华地产，包括迪拜一套价值 270 万美元的顶层公寓后，伦敦高等法院发布了一项全球资产冻结令，冻结与 Ignatova 及其同伙有关的资产。 到 2024 年底，调查人员将搜索重点放在南非开普敦，猜测她以虚假身份居住在一个专属飞地中。 However, new reports in November 2024 suggested that Ignatova may instead be hiding in Russia. According to journalist Yordan Tsalov, who specializes in Kremlin affairs and has worked with Bellingcat, a Netherlands-based investigative journalism group, Ignatova has ties to individuals connected to the Russian government. 察洛夫称，这些联系得到了伊格纳托娃的前安全顾问弗兰克·施耐德 (Frank Schneider) 的证实，施耐德曾是瑞士情报官员，被 OneCoin 聘用，后来接受了察洛夫为 BBC 系列节目所做的采访。 在评论 OneCoin 骗局的规模时，米尔巴赫表示，加密货币行业是一个“令人难以置信的领域”，不仅对于新企业来说如此，对于犯罪分子来说也是如此，他们可以“比简单的模拟欺诈获得更多利益”。 “他们可以将他们的骗局升级到另一个层次。促进和推动在线/数字业务的机制也引发了在线欺诈。黑帮也总是会进入未开发和不受监管的市场，并关注即将发生的事情。” 约翰·冯·米尔巴赫 现在，米尔巴赫表示，他只是在等待“第一个利用这一新机会的人工智能欺诈行为”。 Read more:中国当局逮捕约 100 人，追回 OneCoin 传销骗局中的 2.67 亿美元

RAY price is poised for a 30% surge to $4.20, buoyed by Raydium’s ongoing token buybacks. Raydium (RAY) has surged 10% in the past 24 hours, currently trading around $3.30 as it consolidates following its recent 60% rally from $2.40 to $3.86. The price structure is decisively bullish, with RAY price having printed five consecutive higher highs and higher lows. It also continues to trade above both 20 EMA and 50 SMA, which have maintained a bullish crossover since mid-April. Source: TradingView This uptrend appears to be driven by Raydium’s ongoing token buyback program, which allocates 12% of trading fees toward repurchasing RAY tokens. While buybacks have slowed since mid-March, they have been more or less steady since then with occasional spikes. Source: Blockworks You might also like:Raydium launches Pump.fun clone, industry reception divided The local resistance lies at $3.50. A confirmed breakout above this level would open the door to the next key resistance at $4.20 — a key horizontal level that acted as support for multiple months before the sharp sell-off in late February. A rally to $4.20 would mark almost 30% increase from the current levels. If that’s cleared, the next major resistance is around $5.70, where the price was repeatedly rejected before and after the January rally that peaked at $8.60. The RSI sits at 58, meaning there’s room to run once the price breaks out of the current consolidation. The bullish outlook would be invalidated if RAY drops below the $2.20 support. A break below that could send RAY down toward the $1.50 level. However, given the sustained bullish crossover between the 20 and 50 EMAs and the consistent series of higher highs and lows for nearly two months, the trend is looking strong.
