๐ŸคŽ 0G Labs Reward Contract Drained via Emergency Function ๐ŸŸ Monitoring systems flagged abnormal withdrawals tied to the 0G Labs reward contract, shortly followed by deposits into Tornado Cash. This wasnโ€™t a bug โ€” it was a privileged function being used exactly as designedโ€ฆ just in the wrong hands. ๐ŸŸ An attacker executed emergencyWithdraw(), a high-level admin function, and pulled out roughly 520,000 OG tokens (~$516K) to a single address before routing the funds through Tornado Cash. Clean exit, zero noise, classic playbook. ๐ŸŸ This is the uncomfortable reminder nobody likes: when a contract has emergency or admin powers, security doesnโ€™t end at audits โ€” it ends at key management and access control. One compromised role is enough to drain everything without exploiting a single line of code. ๐ŸŸ Mixing through Tornado immediately suggests thereโ€™s no intention to negotiate or return funds. This wasnโ€™t an experiment, it was a cash-out. โš ๏ธ In DeFi, โ€œemergency functionsโ€ are double-edged swords. They save protocols in crises โ€” and kill them when governance or keys fail. No exploit needed, just permissions in the wrong place. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets

โ˜ ๏ธ Aevo hit for $2.7M โ€” legacy vaults compromised ๐ŸŸ Aevo confirmed that its legacy Ribbon DOV vaults were exploited after a vulnerability slipped into a smart-contract update. Result: roughly $2.7M drained. Important detail โ€” this only affected old vaults, not the active Aevo exchange. ๐ŸŸ The team says they moved fast: tracing funds, coordinating with CEXs and security partners, and flagging the stolen assets. The attacker bypassed the existing Immunefi bounty setup, but Aevo is still leaving the door open for a potential whitehat return. ๐ŸŸ For users panicking: Aevo trading, staking, and current products are NOT affected. The exchange remains fully operational. The damage is isolated to Ribbon Legacy depositors, and the team ะพะฑะตั‰ะฐะตั‚ ะฟะปะฐะฝ ะดะตะนัั‚ะฒะธะน ะฒ ั‚ะตั‡ะตะฝะธะต 24 ั‡ะฐัะพะฒ. ๐ŸŸ A full post-mortem is coming, but the pattern is already familiar โ€” โ€œlegacyโ€ contracts + updates + overlooked edge cases = expensive lesson. Old code has a habit of becoming the weakest link when markets move fast. ๐Ÿ™ Conclusion: Crypto doesnโ€™t forget its past. Legacy contracts donโ€™t magically become safe just because the spotlight moved on โ€” and sooner or later, someone will test them with real money. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets

๐Ÿ”ค Investor Leak Exposes the Real Crypto Kitchen ๐ŸŸ A leaked document from a Botify investor shows how โ€œeasy moneyโ€ is actually made in crypto. A project with no product, no utility, no real roadmap burned $1.5M not on development โ€” but on manufacturing hype to sell vapor to retail. ๐ŸŸ Listings werenโ€™t about tech or audits โ€” just pay-to-play. Gate: $190K, MEXC: $90K. No one cared what was under the hood, only whether the envelope was thick enough. ๐ŸŸ Influencers were bought wholesale. Some got paid in USDT, others in chunks of token supply with a laughable 14-day lock, just enough to dump on followers. One โ€œthought leaderโ€ pocketed $10K + 1% of supply for daily shilling. ๐ŸŸ Around 90% of holders and trading volume were fake. Wash trading, botted wallets, artificial activity. They even hired a so-called โ€œTrump Whaleโ€ for $20K to fake demand and create the illusion of smart money interest. ๐ŸŸ The ending was predictable: post-pump collapse. Loud marketing, flashy partnerships (yes, even UEFA-style name drops), inflated metrics โ€” then straight down. ๐Ÿ˜‡ Final result: Exchanges got paid. Influencers cashed out. Founders walked away clean. Retail got the bags. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets

โšก๏ธ Hacker Turns Hijacked WeChat Into a $55K Rug ๐ŸŸ A scammer managed to take over @heyibinanceโ€™s WeChat account and instantly used the borrowed credibility to shill $MUBARAKAH, triggering a classic micro pump-and-dump. One post โ€” and the crowd rushed in on pure FOMO, without checking the source. ๐ŸŸ The plan couldnโ€™t be simpler: trust the name โ†’ pump โ†’ dump โ†’ disappear. It took the hacker just minutes to walk away with roughly $55K, powered entirely by peopleโ€™s blind confidence in the Binance brand. ๐ŸŸ The story is yet another reminder: an โ€œofficial accountโ€ isnโ€™t always official. Any sudden shill message โ€” especially in closed platforms like WeChat โ€” should be treated as a red flag until proven otherwise. ๐ŸŸ In crypto, people lose money not because hackers are smarter โ€” but because they believe faster than they think. ๐Ÿ’ญ Conclusion: If you follow hype instead of verification, youโ€™re not trading โ€” youโ€™re volunteering as exit liquidity. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets

๐Ÿ…ฐ๏ธ Binance Just Caught an Insider Playing Dirty ๐ŸŸ Binance confirmed that one of its own employees used insider knowledge to drop a token seconds before an official Binance Futures announcement โ€” copying the name and visuals to siphon attention and profit from confused traders. ๐ŸŸ The token โ€” year of yellow fruit โ€” was minted on-chain at 05:29 UTC, and less than a minute later, its branding appeared in the @BinanceFutures tweet. The idea was simple: users would rush to buy the โ€œofficialโ€ token, but some would mistakenly pump the fake one first. ๐ŸŸ Binance moved fast: the employee was immediately suspended, a lawsuit is being prepared, and authorities in the employeeโ€™s jurisdiction were contacted for criminal proceedings. ๐ŸŸ Five whistleblowers who reported the misconduct through the official audit@binance.com channel will receive $100,000 each. Public reports on X were acknowledged โ€” but only official submissions qualify for rewards. ๐ŸŸ Binance says it will tighten internal controls, upgrade policies, and continue enforcing zero-tolerance measures against misconduct inside the company. โญ๏ธ Even the biggest exchanges arenโ€™t immune to internal rats. But the speed of Binanceโ€™s response โ€” and a $500K whistleblower payout โ€” shows one thing clearly: in this market, transparency isnโ€™t optional.

โ˜ ๏ธ Netherlands Warns 300 Scam Victims ๐ŸŸ The setup is classic: victims thought they were investing in crypto or earning easy money by writing product reviews from home. But none of the transfers went into โ€œinvestmentsโ€ โ€” everything was funneled straight into wallets controlled by criminal networks. The alert came after Coinbase flagged suspicious activity and passed the data to Europol, which then forwarded it to police across multiple countries. ๐ŸŸ One of the nastiest parts of the scheme is the fake job hustle. At first, victims actually get paid to build trust. Then comes the twist: theyโ€™re told to deposit their own money โ€œto unlock a higher pay tier.โ€ And you can guess the rest โ€” once the money goes in, itโ€™s gone, and the scammers just move on to the next target. ๐ŸŸ Recovering the funds is nearly impossible. Everything is routed through long chains of foreign wallets, the perpetrators are scattered across multiple jurisdictions, and the networks are too complex to unravel quickly. So right now the only real priority is stopping victims from sending even more money. ๐ŸŸ The emotional toll is brutal. People feel ashamed, guilty, and afraid to talk about it. Slachtofferhulp Nederland reports that many victims get hit again by โ€œrecovery companiesโ€ promising to get their money back for a fee โ€” which, of course, turns out to be yet another scam. ๐Ÿ”„ Crypto might be digital โ€” but the damage from these schemes is painfully real. And every new wave of fraud is a reminder: if something looks safe, simple, and guaranteedโ€ฆ itโ€™s almost always a trap. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets

๐Ÿ”ค A Google insider just walked away with $1M โ€” by farming Polymarket with answers he already knew ๐ŸŸ Yet another reminder that the โ€œfree marketโ€ isnโ€™t free at all โ€” itโ€™s a buffet for insiders. One crafty Google employee decided his salary wasnโ€™t enough and started quietly farming Polymarket using internal knowledge. ๐ŸŸ The scheme? Stupidly simple and painfully effective. He knew outcomes in advance: release dates like Gemini 3 Pro, search trends, internal timelines โ€” all the stuff regular users can only guess about. No charts. No analysis. No risk. Just bets placed on events with outcomes already in his pocket. ๐ŸŸ Result: a 100% win rate and over a million dollars siphoned from people who still think prediction markets reward โ€œskill.โ€ ๐Ÿ“–While retail players cope with hopium and TA squiggles, insiders stroll in, vacuum up liquidity, and walk out smiling. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets

๐Ÿ’ต USPD Drained for $1M After Hidden Exploit Ignites the Protocol ๐ŸŸ The US Permissionless Dollar (USPD) just suffered one of the wildest DeFi breaches of the year โ€” a hacker quietly hijacked the protocol months ago, then woke up one morning and printed 98M USPD out of thin air, draining over $1M in liquidity. ๐ŸŸ The attacker deposited 3122 ETH, triggered a single transaction, and somehow walked out with 237 stETH plus a fresh pile of tokens, which were quickly swapped into $300K USDC on Curve. And yes โ€” all of this came from a vulnerability no one even saw coming. ๐ŸŸ The exploit wasnโ€™t simple. This was a CPIMP attack โ€” โ€œClandestine Proxy In the Middle of Proxy.โ€ Translation: the hacker secretly took control of USPDโ€™s proxy months ago, deployed a shadow contract, and rerouted calls so that block explorers, auditors, and users saw a safe contractโ€ฆ while he controlled everything behind the scenes. ๐ŸŸ For months, he had admin access without anyone noticing. Then, when the time was right, he flipped the switch, minted tens of millions of tokens, and bled the protocol dry. ๐ŸŸ USPD is now telling users to revoke approvals immediately and stop touching the token. Theyโ€™ve brought in exchanges, security firms, and law enforcement โ€” and even offered the hacker a โ€œwhite hat dealโ€: return 90%, keep 10%, walk away clean. ๐Ÿ“‰ DeFi keeps innovating.

๐ŸŽธ Plush Pepe #123 vanished โ€” classic fake escrow scam ๐ŸŸ Classic prehistoric scamming technique, still working like itโ€™s 2019: the scammer spins up a fake chat, clones the avatar, copies the username, and perfectly mimics a real escrow. Seller sends the NFT, expecting a clean deal. Scammer instantly withdraws the funds, disappears into the sunset, and leaves the victim staring at an empty wallet. ๐ŸŸ The account was frozen after complaints โ€” but as always, that doesnโ€™t bring the Pepe back. These guys donโ€™t need sophistication, just patience and a convincing copy-paste of your trusted middleman. ๐ŸŸ And letโ€™s be honest โ€” fake escrows keep thriving because people still skip basic verification. One quick check, one real DM to the legit escrow, and $15k would still be sitting in the right wallet. But the combination of FOMO and โ€œdeal must close nowโ€ creates the perfect breeding ground for scams like this. ๐Ÿ† Fake escrows are alive, well, and eating collectors for breakfast. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets

๐Ÿ”ค Another day โ€” another scam in TON ๐ŸŸ This time itโ€™s Flipsy โ€” a โ€œcasino mini-appโ€ where degen gamblers flipped a coin hoping to double their balance. While users were chasing luck, the devs chased a ~$224,000 TON withdrawal, instantly dumped everything, deleted the bot, wiped the posts, and vanished faster than you can open Tonviewer. ๐ŸŸ And itโ€™s not even about the amount. These Flipsy-clones pop up and disappear with scary regularity. Over the past couple of years, this isnโ€™t the first, or the tenth, or even the twentieth case โ€” TON mini-apps are slowly turning into the most efficient trust-draining machine in the ecosystem. ๐ŸŸ The question the community keeps asking: how can anyone talk about ecosystem growth when a fresh scam drops literally every day? Itโ€™s one thing when the Messiahโ€™s โ€œmillionaire friendsโ€ rug people โ€” but itโ€™s a whole different level when random nobodies walk away with user funds while moderation just watches. ๐ŸŸ The solution is obvious: real moderation. Real security checks. Real transparency. Actual accountability โ€” not โ€œwell, itโ€™s an open ecosystem, freedom for everyoneโ€. ๐ŸŸ But until that happens, Telegram + TON will remain the perfect playground for anyone who wants to grab a quick couple hundred grand and disappear. ๐Ÿ˜ And yes โ€” we will absolutely see Flipsy #128, #129 and many more. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets

To avoid turning the meme contest into a full circus, TF froze Week 3 rewards and slammed the whole event into standby mode. ๐ŸŸ Officially, itโ€™s a โ€œpause to reassess structure, market conditions, and community feedback.โ€ Unofficially โ€” itโ€™s time to figure out who scammed whom, and how $1M in meme money ended up in the wrong wallets. ๐ŸŸ TF promises an updated plan โ€œafter the review is complete.โ€ But as they sayโ€ฆ the hardest part of any investigation is not accidentally uncovering yourself. ๐Ÿคก TON wanted a fair meme tournament.

The mechanics were dirty and simple: any action โ†’ invisible malicious output โ†’ your funds gone before you even realized something happened. ๐ŸŸ The funniest part? The extension is still live in the Chrome Web Store.

๐Ÿ’ต Upbit just got hit for $38M โ€” less than 24 hours after Naver bought the exchangeโ€™s parent company ๐ŸŸ South Koreaโ€™s crypto giant Upbit is back in the spotlight: hackers breached its Solana hot wallet and drained roughly KRW 54B ($38M). The exchange detected abnormal transfers early in the morning and immediately froze all Solanaโ€“network operations. ๐ŸŸ As usual, the weak point was the hot wallet. SOL, USDC, BONK, RAY, JUP, JTO, MOODENG, TRUMP, ACS, SONIC โ€” all funneled into an unknown external address. Cold wallets stayed untouched. ๐ŸŸ Dunamu (Upbitโ€™s parent company) says all customer losses will be fully covered using corporate reserves. The compromised wallet is isolated, internal audits are underway, and assets have been moved to cold storage. Some tokens are already frozen โ€” including Solayer (LAYER) worth roughly $15.7M. ๐ŸŸ Hereโ€™s the kicker: the hack hit right after Naver closed a $13.6B deal that was supposed to push Upbit into a new fintech ecosystem and potentially toward a future Nasdaq listing. Now regulators will be watching with maximum pressure. ๐ŸŸ And once again weโ€™re reminded of the obvious: hot wallets remain a permanent security hole. Upbit survived 159,000+ attack attempts back in 2023, and the wave of hacks across the industry is only rising โ€” from GANA on BNB Chain to the recent hits on Balancer and Stream Finance. ๐Ÿ™ Web3 expands, regulators tighten, corporations sign multi-billion-dollar deals โ€” but old-fashioned human error and fragile hot wallets still knock companies down faster than the SEC ever could. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets

๐Ÿ’ต Kyrrex: the crypto exchange hiding inside another exchange ๐ŸŸ A Dutch lawyer started with a โ€œsimpleโ€ crypto scam case: a man lost $1.5M after sending his savings to a fake investment adviser. Blockchain tracing led to a wallet on Huobi (HTX). But when the lawyer demanded the ownerโ€™s identity, the answer shocked everyone โ€” the wallet didnโ€™t belong to a person. It belonged to another exchange nested inside HTX: Kyrrex. ๐ŸŸ This kind of โ€œnested exchangeโ€ is a perfect shelter for scammers. Nearly $10 billion passed through just one Kyrrex-linked wallet โ€” including funds stolen from victims in Canada, Europe, Australia, and beyond. Analysts also found links to hackers and even accounts tied to pro-Russian military fundraising groups. ๐ŸŸ Outwardly, Kyrrex advertises โ€œtransparencyโ€ and shows off its regulated Malta entity. But the real action happened in St. Vincent, an offshore zone with almost zero oversight. Meanwhile, HTX kept the Kyrrex wallet active for years, despite repeated warnings from victims and police. ๐Ÿ’ญ Takeaway: When an exchange hides behind layers of offshore companies, nested wallets, and unclear ownership, itโ€™s a massive red flag. In crypto, the more complicated the structure, the easier it is to hide stolen money. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets

In reality, they secretly redirected people to fake crypto websites. The author โ€” โ€œdino_rebornโ€ โ€” is already banned. ๐ŸŸ The trick behind the scam is a service called Adspect, which checks whoโ€™s visiting the fake site. If itโ€™s a regular user โ€” they see a fake CAPTCHA and get sent straight to a scam page. If itโ€™s a security researcher โ€” Adspect shows a blank white page to avoid suspicion. ๐ŸŸ Inside the packages was code that collected system info, blocked DevTools, and executed automatically as soon as the package was imported. ๐ŸŸ The final destination? Fake โ€œcrypto platformsโ€ designed to steal digital assets or wallet access. ๐ŸŸ Adspect, by the way, openly sells โ€œtraffic cloakingโ€ for $299โ€“999/month and proudly states they donโ€™t care what content you promote. No surprise scammers love it. ๐Ÿ”ฅ Bottom line: even basic npm installs can lead to crypto scams now. Always check authors, downloads, and activity. Today you install a package โ€” tomorrow youโ€™re staring at a phishing page. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Token Report (X) โ€” your daily pulse on crypto and global markets
