Hardware wallet maker Ledger has regained control of its Discord server after a moderator’s compromised account was used to spread phishing links targeting users’ seed phrases. According to an announcement on the official Discord server, the breach occurred on May 11 after an attacker took over a contracted moderator’s account. Using the elevated privileges, the attacker deployed a bot to post scam links in one of the channels, directing users to a malicious website that mimicked a Ledger verification page. “The issue was quickly contained: the compromised account was removed, the bot was deleted, the website was reported, and all relevant permissions were reviewed and secured,” said Ledger staff member Quintin Boatwright in the May 11 Discord post. To target users, the attacker issued a fake security warning that claimed a vulnerability had been discovered in Ledger’s systems. Users were urged to “verify” their recovery phrases via a provided link, which led to a fraudulent third-party website.

The setup was designed to harvest sensitive credentials and gain full access to a victim’s crypto assets. Screenshots of the scam post quickly circulated on X, prompting warnings from security analysts and further scrutiny of Ledger’s community management protocols. See below.

While it remains unclear whether any users fell victim to the phishing attempt, the incident follows a string of similar scams targeting hardware wallet customers. As previously reported by crypto.news, Ledger customers were recently targeted in a phishing campaign involving fake letters sent by mail bearing Ledger’s branding, a return address, and a fabricated reference number.  It urged recipients to scan a malicious QR code and enter their 24-word recovery phrase, under the false pretext of a required security update. Ledger is not the only wallet provider that has dealt with security threats. In March, Ledger’s security research team, Donjon, disclosed a vulnerability in rival manufacturer Trezor’s Safe hardware wallets, warning that the devices could still be physically hacked due to a vulnerability in the microcontroller used to perform critical cryptographic operations. Notably, the chip is vulnerable to voltage glitching attacks, which can allow an attacker to extract or manipulate data stored in the device by briefly altering power input during operations. Several crypto influencers have since commented on the exploit, including former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao. Just got this security warning.Ledger's Discord admin account was hacked.

比特币的匿名创造者中本聪 (Satoshi Nakamoto) 在数千个钱包中持有价值约 1000 亿美元的加密货币。 据区块链追踪初创公司 Arkham 称，截至 2 月 4 日，中本聪已知的比特币 (BTC) 数量已达 1,096,354 个，价值 1000 亿美元。 链上情报提供商表示，中本聪的比特币宝库分布在超过 22,000 个钱包地址中。多年来，许多分析师推测比特币的创造者在退出之前管理着数千个 BTC 钱包。 Arkham 使用所谓的“Patoshi 模式”将钱包与 Satoshi 联系起来，这是神秘的 BTC 创造者采用的挖矿模式。该公司还添加了 Satoshi 用来消费比特币的唯一已知地址。 24 小时 BTC 价格图表 – 2 月 4 日 | 来源：crypto.news — Arkham (@arkham) 2025 年 2 月 4 日 阅读更多：

A publicly-traded logistics firm has struck a $20 million deal with an institutional investor to purchase Official Trump memecoins, becoming one of the first companies to anchor its digital asset strategy around the U.S. president’s controversial crypto business. Freight Technologies CEO Javier Selgas pitched the move as part of an effort to grow U.S.-Mexico commerce—though how a memecoin fits into supply chains remains unclear. The investment also comes as the U.S. Office of Government Ethics examines whether President Donald Trump violates federal ethics rules by offering exclusive access to his coin’s top investors. What Is Fr8Tech? Freight Technologies, which refers to itself as Fr8Tech, is a Houston-based company launched in 2015 and trades on NASDAQ. The company aims to use new technologies like artificial intelligence for the optimization of the supply chain processes. The company’s stock, which trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker FRGT, saw its price plummet back in 2018, during Trump’s first term. Like many other companies, Freight Technologies is now moving forward with a digital asset reserve, deviating from the norm of making Bitcoin (BTC) the primary asset and embracing a memecoin instead. Social media influence and crypto commentator Mario Nawfal called it the “first-ever” Trump treasury. No major headlines yet, but $FRGT’s move to back a treasury with $TRUMP is catching CT’s eye—social buzz around $TRUMP is strong, even while the token’s price action is cooling and trading shows short-term downside risk. $FRGT is still under the radar, with little volume or data…— Alva (@AlvaApp) April 30, 2025 Costly gimmick? On April 30, Freight Technologies announced the creation of a crypto treasury. The company agreed to issue convertible notes worth up to $20 million with an institutional investor. The capital is secured exclusively for buying Official Trump (TRUMP) tokens. The first tranche will amount to $1 million. Selgas, in a prepared statement, referenced Trump’s “America First” principle and tied it to trade efforts between Mexico and the U.S. See below: At the heart of Fr8Tech’s mission is the promotion of productive and active commerce between the United States and Mexico. Mexico is the United States’ top goods trading partner, with Mexico being the leading destination for US exports and the top source for US imports. As US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently stated, “I wish to be clear: America First does not mean America alone. To the contrary, it is a call for deeper collaboration and mutual respect among trade partners.” Buying TRUMP is outlined as “an effective way to advocate for fair, balanced, and free trade between Mexico and the U.S..” Still, the company doesn’t elaborate on how a Trump memecoin acquisition will help trade between the two countries or warn readers about the possible risks. After all, the Trump token — like most memecoins — is highly volatile. Although its price has been up roughly 2% in the past 24 hours, it’s been on a downward trajectory since its launch in January. Source: CoinGecko Trump memecoin a strange choice As corporate crypto treasuries become trendy, big-name firms like BlackRock recommend allocating up to 2% of corporate assets in Bitcoin. They argue that BTC is a better store of value than most other digital assets. According to the Bitcoin Treasuries website, 101 public companies hold Bitcoin.  Considering Bitcoin’s deflationary design and long-term value appreciation, which have been demonstrated throughout its 15-year history, it’s understandable why some companies may choose Bitcoin as one of their corporate assets.  So far, Official Trump has no use case other than incentivizing investors to buy more to be invited to a private dinner with Trump on May 22. $TRUMP saw its value spike over 50% following the promotion. Critics also warn that the “pay to play” aspect of Official Trump raises ethics concerns and could even be used as a bribery tool. “Something that hasn’t been much discussed — creating a bunch of personal memecoins opens the door to secretive foreign buyers trying to curry influence with our leaders,” Nic Carter of Castle Island Ventures said on X back in January. “If you hated Hunter Biden’s anonymous art sales, you should hate this too.” Something that hasn’t been much discussed – creating a bunch of personal memecoins opens the door to secretive foreign buyers trying to curry influence with our leaders. If you hated hunter biden’s anonymous art sales, you should hate this too.— nic carter (@nic__carter) January 20, 2025 Last month, Democratic Senators Adam Schiff and Elizabeth Warren called for a federal ethics investigation into Trump’s promotion of the coin. In a letter to the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, the senators allege that Trump may have violated federal ethics rules by offering access to his administration in exchange for financial investment. Freight Technologies has not indicated that it seeks access to the White House by holding Trump memecoins. In the days following the company’s announcement, the FRGT stock price grew 111.21% on May 2. The stock closed Friday at $2.08 per share. The Trump memecoin price seems unaffected by the news.

Bubbles make sense when they burst, so it’s premature to state that corporate crypto treasuries are the bubble. However, some observers feel that a sudden spike of interest in crypto among public companies draws comparisons with the dot-com bubble. Worth reminding the only *real* public companies that have adopted bitcoin as a corporate treasury are $TSLA, $COIN and $XYZEverybody else sits somewhere on the spectrum between Charles Ponzi and https://t.co/3CghbTay3b— Pledditor (@Pledditor) May 2, 2025 If we look closely, we will see that it’s early to speak about a strong trend or any notable crypto fever among public companies. As more companies acquire Bitcoin, most are relatively small companies that spend humble amounts on it. Strategy, a company holding over 500,000 bitcoins, started to accumulate BTC in 2020. Tesla made a Bitcoin investment in 2021, driving the asset’s price. Strategy became the dominant Bitcoin buyer among public companies. The rest of the public companies hold smaller BTC bags—no need to panic.  As for the Fr8Tech news, the company currently has the financing “earmarked” for purchasing Official Trump, so we’ll see what happens when the purchase is officially made.

古巴外交部的 X 账户因被指控推广和操纵多个基于 Solana 的 memecoin 而被锁定。 周一，该账户似乎在推广一种名为“CUBA”的代币，这导致一些人认为古巴政府参与了 memecoin 狂热，这引发了猜测。最近，围绕 memecoin 的炒作越来越受欢迎，尤其是在唐纳德·特朗普相关代币飙升之后。 据报道，CUBA 代币在崩盘前市值曾达到 3000 万美元。此外，据称另外两种代币——“Cuba Coin 2.0”和“Justice for Cuba Coin”——在推出后 24 小时内就失败了。 网上流传的截图还显示了一个名为“CUBA 4.0”的代币，这进一步引发了人们对可能遭遇黑客攻击的猜测。 你可能还喜欢：特朗普支持的 WLFI 花费 1 亿美元购买加密货币 $CUBA 致歉 古巴外交部的 X 帐户在被删除前曾简短承认其页面存在“困难”。该帐户托管的 X 空间名为“$CUBA 致歉”，其中刊登了一位自称代表古巴政府的人的道歉信。 据 Protos 称，这位主持人最初否认有任何不当行为，但据报道后来在空间被删除之前大喊“我们走吧，来吧，百万 MC！” DEX Screener 数据显示，最初的 CUBA 代币的交易量为 1.587 亿美元，目前的市值为 210 万美元。 尽管古巴政府尚未发表官方声明，但该部的X账户仍然处于禁用状态，导致问题仍未得到解决。 你可能还喜欢：随着特朗普在 Solana 上推出特朗普表情包币，人们对柴犬和佩佩的兴趣逐渐冷却

U.S. stocks closed higher as investors welcomed signs of progress on trade policy and processed a flurry of corporate earnings.  The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 300 points, or nearly 0.75%, while the S&P 500 gained 0.6% and the Nasdaq Composite added 0.5%. The bounce gained momentum in the afternoon after U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told CNBC that a trade deal with an unnamed country was “done” but awaiting approval abroad. Investors interpreted the remarks as a positive signal amid uncertainty surrounding Trump’s trade strategy. Despite the rally, President Donald Trump’s first 100 days of his new term have shaped up to be the worst for markets at the start of a presidency since Richard Nixon’s in 1973.  The S&P 500 is on track for its biggest loss over the first 100 days of a presidential term in more than five decades.

Amazon shares also reversed losses after denying plans to display tariff-related surcharges on its site. The White House had called the rumored move a “hostile and political act.” Earnings were in focus, with Spotify and Coca-Cola reporting before the bell, and Starbucks due after the close. Honeywell jumped 5% after a solid earnings beat, helping lead the Dow higher. Still, economic data underlined broader uncertainty. Consumer confidence fell for the fifth straight month, and job openings hovered at a four-year low. Bitcoin (BTC) traded around the $95,000 threshold for most of the day.  You might also like:‘Massive year for crypto in the U.K.’: London unveils sweeping crypto rules, eyes regulatory ties with USA
