据最近的报道，美国海关和边境保护局扣留了数千台中国制造的比特币挖矿设备数月后，已开始放行部分货物。 Synteq Digital 首席执行官塔拉斯·库利克 (Taras Kulyk) 在接受路透社采访时透露，在多达 10,000 台矿机在美国各港口被扣押后，“数千台矿机已被释放”。 据他所说，扣留这些钻机是美国海关和边境保护局的蓄意举动，推动这一行动的官员“不喜欢比特币挖矿”，并想给该行业制造麻烦。 整个局势与中美关系日益紧张有关，尤其是在半导体技术领域。比特大陆的 Antminer 矿机在其芯片供应商 Sophgo 陷入与美国商务部的纠纷后陷入困境。 去年 10 月，官员们在华为 AI 处理器中发现了一些与 Sophgo 相关的芯片，这引起了人们对华为长期以来受到美国制裁的警惕。 你可能还喜欢：报道称，美国比特币矿工因与中国的贸易战而面临中断 尽管 Sophgo 否认与华为有任何联系，但据报道，美国联邦通信委员会仍推动扣押该设备，声称蚂蚁矿机型号（特别是 S21 和 T21）可能违反美国法规。 然而，到目前为止，只有一小部分被扣押的矿工得以获释。卢克索科技公司的首席运营官伊桑·维拉表示，这些报道属实，但实际上只有“少数”货物得以放行。 据 Vera 称，当局对采矿设备的射频辐射表示担忧。上个月，crypto.news 报道称，美国海关及边境保卫局已扩大扣留范围，将 MicroBT 和 Canaan 等其他中国制造商的采矿设备也纳入其中，理由是存在类似的合规问题。 然而，维拉和库雷克都否认了这些说法，认为毫无根据。 目前，美国政府正在加强对中国进口产品的限制，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的政府已对中国进口产品征收 10% 的关税。 为了应对这些持续的贸易障碍，比特大陆一直在努力通过扩大其在美国的生产线来避免延误。 阅读更多：分析人士称，中国的地下网络已为 Bybit 事件做好了准备

Basel Medical Group Ltd has entered exclusive negotiations to acquire US$1 billion worth of Bitcoin in a strategic move to strengthen its balance sheet and diversify its treasury reserves. The announcement, made on May 16, marks a significant shift for the Singapore-based healthcare company, as it looks to blend digital asset investment with aggressive growth in Asia’s medical services sector. The company is in advanced talks with a consortium of institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals to complete the acquisition via a share-swap deal. If finalized, this would be among the largest crypto acquisitions by a publicly listed healthcare firm in the Asia-Pacific region.

The capital infusion is expected to establish BMGL as one of the best-capitalized healthcare providers in the region, while creating a diversified asset base designed to weather economic volatility.  Earlier this week, Heritage Distilling finalized a policy to accept and hold Bitcoin (BTC) and Dogecoin as part of its treasury strategy. Similarly, the company wants to began accepting cryptocurrencies as payment and treating them as long-term assets to diversify sales and reach a broader customer base.

Mango Markets exploiter Avraham “Avi” Eisenberg could be facing over six years in prison, as U.S. prosecutors have pushed for a hefty sentence ahead of his May 1 hearing. In an April 22 filing, federal prosecutors told New York district court Judge Arun Subramanian that Eisenberg’s 2022 exploit of the Solana-based DeFi platform was not a clever arbitrage but a premeditated attack that defrauded investors of over $100 million. “Fraud that takes over $100 million from investors and effectively shuts down a business is a shocking violation of criminal law,” the filing stated. Prosecutors are seeking a sentence of 78 to 97 months, roughly six and a half to eight years, citing both the severity of the fraud and Eisenberg’s separate guilty plea in a child exploitation case. However, they emphasised that the crypto-related offenses alone warrant a substantial prison term. Eisenberg was convicted in April of wire fraud, commodities fraud, and market manipulation for manipulating the price of Mango’s governance token, MNGO, and using inflated collateral to drain the protocol’s treasury.

Further, the filing pointed to Discord chats where Eisenberg outlined his plans in advance, describing how he would “buy a ton, massively increase the price, and borrow on lending,” adding that “you don’t need to sell—you can just let the loan stand.” Although Eisenberg returned around $67 million following a DAO vote, the government said it was under the condition that Mango DAO “waive any potential claims” and refrain from pursuing criminal charges.  “This was not returning funds in any genuine sense of the term,” prosecutors said, framing the move as “a ransom note.” The filing also touched upon how Eisenberg researched fraud laws before the attack and fled to Israel hours after being identified online. Later, on social media, he publicly defended his actions, claiming the trade was legal, though prosecutors argue he knew otherwise. “The defendant knew that fraudulent market manipulation is illegal, and that the cryptocurrency space was no exception,” they wrote. In a separate victim impact statement filed the same day, lawyers representing Mango Markets urged the court to order Eisenberg to pay $47 million in restitution, arguing that the return of misappropriated funds is essential to making the platform’s community whole. “Although Eisenberg’s attack cannot be undone, return of the funds he misappropriated is critical to righting his wrong,” the filing stated. Mango Markets shut down in early 2025 following a unanimous community vote, citing the long-term impact of the exploit and ongoing legal fallout.  Read more:Mango Markets settles with SEC, agrees to destroy MNGO tokens

Safe 将安全漏洞追溯到其钱包 UI，而 Bybit 弥补了 14 亿美元的差距并推出了赏金协议来追踪不法行为者。 2 月 21 日，在迪拜交易所 Bybit 遭受网络攻击后，基于以太坊的加密钱包协议 Safe 对其多重签名解决方案实施了“立即的安全改进”。 朝鲜的 Lazarus 利用 Safe Wallet 用户界面的漏洞，从 Bybit 的以太坊钱包中窃取了价值超过 14 亿美元的以太币 (ETH)。这个臭名昭著的黑客组织专门针对 Bybit 注入了恶意 JavaScript 代码，窃取了超过 40 万个 ETH。 为了防止进一步的攻击，Safe 将其钱包置于锁定模式，然后宣布分阶段推出并重新配置基础设施。 你可能还喜欢：比特币 CME 期货价差扩大 6,000 美元 Safe 联合创始人 Martin Koeppelmann 表示，该团队通过 3 月 3 日的 X.com 帖子开发并发布了十项 UI 更改。该协议的 GitHub 存储库显示了更新，包括“现在在 UI 上显示完整的原始交易数据”和“删除引起安全问题的特定直接硬件钱包支持”，以及其他升级。 Bybit 首席执行官 Ben Zhou 在与主持人 Kevin Follonier 的《When Shift Happens》播客中讨论了这一事件，他解释说，攻击发生在他签署一笔转移 13,000 ETH 的交易后不久。 Zhou 提到使用 Ledger 硬件钱包，但指出他无法完全验证交易细节。该问题被称为“盲签名”，是多重签名加密交易中常见的漏洞。Koeppelmann 表示，Safe 的最新更新旨在为签名者提供更详细的交易数据。 在回应 Kyber Network 首席执行官 Victor Tran 关于全行业安全工作的帖子时，Koeppelmann 强调了合作的重要性，但指出立即控制损害仍然是当务之急。 Koeppelmann 表示：“我们仍处于‘灭火’模式 —— 但一旦我们解决了这个问题，我们就需要齐心协力，改善整体前端和 tx 验证的安全性”，并补充道，“这需要多方参与才能彻底解决这个问题。” 这些是 @safe 团队在恢复 UI 时立即实施的安全改进。我们透明地进行此操作，并相信整个行业都有很多经验教训可以借鉴。链接如下 👇 pic.twitter.com/Rjq5FIBZ1M— koeppelmann.eth 🦉💳 (@koeppelmann) 2025 年 3 月 3 日 阅读更多：Bybit 14 亿美元盗窃案源于 Safe UI 遭入侵
