Officially, the country has no centralized exchange for cryptocurrencies. This means that individuals can trade crypto only on foreign platforms. However, as crypto.news reported earlier, Garantex, a crypto exchange sanctioned by the U.S. and the European Union, seems to be one of the largest Russia-based exchanges operating within the Kremlin’s purview. The exchange has offices in Moscow’s Federation Tower and allows deposits and withdrawals in rubles to Russian bank cards, including those from Sberbank, Tinkoff, and Alfa-Bank.

The Chainlink team has announced the genesis season of its new community rewards program will go live on May 8, with an initial 100 million Space and Time tokens up for grabs. Chainlink (LINK) revealed the new development on May 5 in a blog post, stating that the program aims to incentivize community participation. The rollout is in collaboration with Space and Time, a Microsoft-backed blockchain that uses zero-knowledge proofs for verified data. According to the post, the rewards program targets projects within the Chainlink Build ecosystem. Both early-stage and established projects will be able to use the program to grow their communities and increase traction. Specifically, projects can leverage the initiative to reward users with their native tokens. Space and Time plans to allocate 4% of its total SXT token supply, equivalent to 200 million SXT, for participants in the Chainlink ecosystem. Eligible LINK stakers are those included in a snapshot taken on March 31, 2025.

The project, which raised $20 million in a Series A ound in August, taps into Chainlink services for ZK-proven queries for smart contracts.  Notably, Space and Time is looking to launch its token SXT.

Scammers are sending physical letters to Ledger hardware wallet users, impersonating the company in an effort to steal wallet seed phrases — a phishing scheme that may be linked to Ledger’s 2020 data breach. In a recent post on X, Jacob Canfield shared a photo of one such fraudulent letter. The letter, which arrived by mail, was made to look official with Ledger branding, business address, and a unique reference number. It asked the recipient to scan a QR code and input their wallet’s 24-word recovery phrase, claiming it was required for a “critical security update.” It also stated that failure to complete the “mandatory validation process” could lead to restricted access to the user’s crypto funds. Breaking: New scam meta launched. Now they’re sending physical letters to the @Ledger addresses database leak requesting an ‘upgrade’ due to a security risk.Be very cautious and warn any friends or family that you know is in crypto and is not that savvy. pic.twitter.com/XoUAGQBJXt— Jacob Canfield (@JacobCanfield) April 28, 2025 Responding to Canfield’s post, Ledger reminded users that“Ledger will never ask for your 24-word recovery phrase. If someone does, it’s a scam.” You might also like:News Trezor Safe devices still vulnerable to physical supply chain attacks, Ledger says Canfield speculated that this scam letter may be tied to Ledger’s notorious data breach from July 2020. In that incident, a hacker exploited an inactive API key to access portions of Ledger’s e-commerce and marketing database. The breach resulted in the exposure of approximately one million customer email addresses, along with other personal details such as names, phone numbers, shipping addresses, and information about purchased products. While it’s unknown whether Canfield’s letter is tied to the 2020 Ledger breach, cybersecurity outlet BleepingComputer previously reported that data from the breach had been used in various crypto phishing campaigns involving fake emails, counterfeit hardware wallets, and scam websites.

披露：此处表达的观点和意见仅属于作者，不代表 crypto.news 编辑的观点和意见。 从一开始，加密货币行业就吸引了大量争议。巨额资金涌入一个基本不受监管的领域，吸引了远见卓识者和创新者，但也吸引了想要轻松获利的不良行为者。引人注目的骗局、安全漏洞和极端的市场波动导致公众对这个领域产生了许多怀疑。从那时起，加密货币一直在努力摆脱其风险大、不可靠的形象。各种统计数据指出，多达 70% 的了解加密货币的普通消费者“不太信任”或“根本不信任”。 你可能还喜欢：监管 CEX 无法阻止不良行为者：FTX 审判的教训 | 观点 两年前 FTX 的倒闭再次打击了该行业的信誉，投资者损失了数十亿美元，导致大量怀疑论者和要求加强监管的呼声高涨。丑闻发生后的市场研究表明，49% 的受访者发现，随着与犯罪和欺诈的联系增加，他们对加密货币市场的印象变得更糟。 此类丑闻，加上加密货币的自然波动性和经常火上浇油的负面新闻，留下了持久的印记。加密货币行业正在不断成熟，但为了实现众多市场参与者一直期待的主流采用，它最终需要重塑自身形象，摆脱不可信的污名。正面解决其形象问题并改善沟通方式将对实现有意义的变革大有裨益。 接受的主要障碍 从历史上看，阻碍加密行业受到重视的更大挑战之一是其非正式文化。我参加过很多加密活动，看到这个领域的思想领袖与传统金融 (TradFi) 同行的形象截然不同。想想连帽衫胜过西装，以及充斥着技术术语的对话。 这种悠闲的方式与传统金融的正式性和精确性形成了鲜明对比。对于那些习惯于结构化、专业环境的人来说，加密货币世界可能显得不专业，甚至是幼稚的。 大量复杂的技术术语也疏远了潜在用户。对于新手来说，尝试理解加密货币通常感觉就像学习一门外语，许多人发现自己非常害怕，以至于他们宁愿根本不去尝试。这减缓了主流采用的速度，并助长了这样一种观念：加密货币是一个“专属俱乐部”，而不是真正能够改变全球金融方式的东西。 最后，媒体对这个行业的报道也给人们留下了负面印象。市场崩溃、欺诈和其他丑闻的报道总是占据着头条新闻。一方面，媒体积极追求耸人听闻的报道是有道理的——这类新闻的“震撼”因素往往会吸引大量的注意力和读者。但这也意味着，在这样的背景下，正面的新闻和合法的成就很难脱颖而出，很难被看到。 事实上，这一趋势可以追溯到 2017 年的 ICO 热潮：这是首次展示区块链技术潜力的时期，但它也引发了一波又一波的投机项目，这些项目优先考虑炒作而不是实质内容。这些项目以“新颖而闪亮”为由获得了大型媒体的大量关注，自那以后，这种形象从未真正改变过。 公平地说，应该说自那时以来，媒体已经学会了更加谨慎和平衡。但即使是现在，看到“耸人听闻”的报道多于客观的叙述也并不罕见，这使得加密货币更难获得广泛的可信度。 全面沟通，共赢 为了弥补声誉受损并弥合加密货币与广大公众之间的差距，该行业需要采取措施彻底改革其沟通方式。以下是我认为可以采取的一些方法。 首先，加密货币公司需要停止鼓励自己的耸人听闻，远离夸大其词的承诺，转向更专业的叙述。作为为多家金融公司提供增长战略咨询的人，我可以说，当公司向他们清晰、诚实地说明他们正在做什么时，投资者和用户都会很感激。透明的沟通强调了他们的服务在现实世界中的应用以及为保护客户而采取的安全措施，这将在建立信誉和减轻怀疑方面大有裨益。 没有必要放弃行业的创新精神，但采用更精致、更专业的形象有助于建立信任。思想领袖应该寻求在展示自己的方式上取得平衡的方法，以便加密爱好者和 TradFi 代表都能接受他们。休闲风格有其存在的意义，但当你谈生意时，你应该遵循更严格的着装要求，以简洁、结构良好的方式进行演示和报告。这无疑可以在很大程度上消除任何不成熟的看法。 另一件需要考虑的事情是加密货币公司如何传递信息。应该考虑普通人的可访问性：使用通俗易懂的语言来解释想法和好处可以让那些不熟悉加密货币和区块链的人更有吸引力。推出教育计划，让非加密货币人士了解这个行业，也有助于弥合差距——我们在这方面一直很缺乏。 最后，更多的加密货币企业应该关注其长期价值，而不是试图利用暂时的炒作。我经常看到项目试图利用市场繁荣周期来巩固自己的地位，而不是磨练自己独特的竞争优势并强调对这个生态系统的有意义的贡献。 但认真的投资者想要的不仅仅是华而不实的营销——他们欣赏周密的计划和明确的定位。这表明该项目对其未来是认真的，这在试图增强可信度时肯定是有帮助的。 通过优先考虑可持续增长，该领域的公司可以将自己定位为可靠的，从而有更好的机会与 TradFi 机构建立合作并在加密行业以外吸引更广泛的用户。 建立新的认知 如果加密货币行业要真正重新定义自身及其形象，就必须从根本上改变其信息和沟通方式。而这不是仅靠 1-2 家公司的努力就能实现的。这里需要集体努力，从新创业公司到老牌企业，每个人都要参与进来，形成一个透明、具有真正价值的统一阵线。 一旦实现这一目标，走向主流采用的道路将变得更加容易，因为加密货币企业将不必费力地被视为合法。 阅读更多：加密货币营销陷阱：聘请加密货币专家可能会适得其反 | 观点 瓦伦蒂娜·德罗法 瓦伦蒂娜·德罗法是 Drofa Comms 的联合创始人兼首席执行官，该公司是一家专注于金融和金融科技领域的国际公关咨询公司。她是一位全球企业家和商业领袖，在金融市场工作超过 15 年。她是一名金融市场顾问，拥有经济学博士学位，并著有几本关于金融知识的书籍。
