40 millions de dollars de crypto coincés dans un portefeuille inaccessible PrimeTrust Multisig Wallet

Crypto  40 millions de dollars de crypto coincĂ©s dans un portefeuille inaccessible PrimeTrust Multisig Wallet  Il y a 11 minutes  Nouvelles Bitcoin Ethereum  In a startling revelation, cybersecurity firm PeckShields Arkham platform has unearthed critical information about the enigmatic PrimeTrust multisig wallet, designated as 0xf4E1
98f or, more colloquially, the “98f Wallet.” This wallet recently gained attention due to its mention in a legal filing where access to its cryptocurrency holdings had been impeded.  Currently, the 98f Wallet keeps an impressive stash of digital assets amounting to approximately $40 million. A staggering ~23.8K ETH (Ethereum) and a hefty 935.3K USDC (USD Coin) have been identified among its holdings. The situation raises eyebrows within the cryptocurrency community, as such a substantial wealth remains frustratingly out of reach.  In a series of perplexing developments, PeckShields Arkham detected an influx of around ~12K ETH into the same 98f Wallet that had been rendered inaccessible. This move adds another layer of complexity to the already confounding situation, leading to many questions surrounding the motives and individuals behind the transfers.  Attacks on the rise  Recently, PeckShield‘s community contributor exposed another breach on Magnate Finance. Approximately $1 million of ill-gotten gains have been stealthily shifted to the BNBChain.

Les échanges cryptographiques sud-coréens se préparent à des réserves obligatoires de 2.3 millions de dollars

South Korean cryptocurrency exchanges are gearing up to implement a new regulatory requirement that mandates them to reserve a minimum of 3 billion won (approximately $2.3 million) in bank accounts as of September. This move comes as part of South Koreas intensified efforts to enhance consumer protection measures within the growing crypto industry.  Notable exchanges in South Korea, including Upbit and Bithumb, seem to be aligning themselves with the new regulations, according to recent reports from local media outlet News1. These requirements were outlined in guidelines released in July by the Korea Federation of Banks, indicating the crypto industrys increasing engagement with regulatory authorities.  The guidelines, aptly named “Virtual Asset Real-Name Account Operation Guidelines,” lay down the expectation for cryptocurrency exchanges to allocate at least 3 billion won or an equivalent of 30% of their daily average deposits as reserves.  This financial buffer is intended to ensure that exchanges can fulfill their obligations to users in the event of any risk incidents. However, theres a cap set on the size of these funds, limiting them to 20 billion won in accordance with the provided guidelines.

JUST IN : La SEC poursuit une entreprise pour avoir vendu des NFT, affirmant quils peuvent ĂȘtre classĂ©s comme titres

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has filed a lawsuit against a Los Angeles-based media and entertainment company for illegally selling cryptocurrencies that the agency considers securities.  The regulator accused Impact Theory of violating the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, offering and selling non-fungible tokens (NFTs) without registration or exemption, according to a press release released by the SEC on Monday. .  The SEC claims that Impact Theory has raised approximately $30 million from hundreds of investors, some in the US, through the sale of three types of NFTs called Founders Keys between October and December 2021. NFTs were expected to provide access to exclusive content and benefits from Impact Theory, which it claims is “trying to build the next Disney.”  The SEC alleges that Impact Theory is marketing NFTs as an investment opportunity, promising that investors will profit from their purchases if the company is successful. The SEC argues that NFTs meet investment contract criteria and are therefore securities under the Howey test, a legal framework used to determine whether an asset is a security.  The SECs order states that Impact Theory has agreed to adjudicate the charges and pay more than $6.1 million in damages, interest and penalties

La grùve potentielle des travailleurs de Kaiser illustre un problùme beaucoup plus important pour la main-dƓuvre daujourdhui

This week, multiple sources reported that The Coalition of Kaiser Permanente Unions is preparing to vote on a strike authorization. The coalition represents nearly 85,000 healthcare workers in Kaiser Permanente facilities across the country, one of the largest organized groups in the industry.  The coalition exclaims that it is fighting for better working conditions, staffing ratios, and more equitable pay, among other things. It explains in an open letter: “After three years of the COVID-19 pandemic, there simply aren‘t enough healthcare workers to safely and properly care for patients. Even before the pandemic, we faced a healthcare worker shortage; now, it is becoming a full-blown crisis that threatens all aspects of patient care. Many of our co-workers have left and more are considering leaving as we continue to endure the emotional toll of the pandemic and a sense that our safety is not protected at work. At the same time, after everything we’ve been through, and as inflation squeezes our families, it is demoralizing to see retail, hospitality, and other sectors raising pay rates much faster than what were seeing in our hospitals and facilities.”  Indeed, the healthcare workforce has changed significantly over the last decade, and the Covid-19 pandemic was an
