first_img Trezor marketing platform was breached, 347,000 users received phishing emails

Bitcoin hardware wallet manufacturer Trezor has warned that its third-party marketing platform Brevo, used for sending newsletters, experienced a data breach, with attackers using the platform to send phishing emails to 347,000 Trezor customers. The attackers sent emails using Trezor's domain, making the phishing attempt more deceptive, with malicious links encouraging users to download applications and enter wallet backups.Trezor stated that it shut down the domain at the DNS level within 20 minutes to prevent the links from remaining active, but approximately 2,500 people had already clicked on them. Trezor has suspended its Brevo account to stop further emails from being sent and emphasized that other Trezor systems were not affected aside from the marketing platform, while reminding users that Trezor never asks customers for wallet backups.Prior to this incident, Trezor disclosed last month that its third-party fulfillment partner ShipMonk was attacked, resulting in the data breach of 11,742 customers; last week it also reported that the names, emails, phone numbers, shipping addresses, and order numbers of another 67,000 U.S. customers were exposed in the breach. This year, cryptocurrency wallet Ledger's payment processor Global-e and wallet provider SafePal have also experienced data breaches, with approximately 39,800 customers' order information at SafePal being accessed without authorization.

first_img OKX launched perpetual contracts for OpenAI and Anthropic's Pre-IPO in Europe

Cryptocurrency exchange OKX announced the launch of Pre-IPO perpetual contracts related to OpenAI and Anthropic in Europe. Eligible traders can go long or short on the valuations of the two AI companies with up to 10 times leverage, but will not receive actual shares of the two companies. This product bets on the valuation changes of the two companies before their IPOs, providing a new speculative avenue for retail investors who find it difficult to directly buy shares of private companies.OKX is not the first platform to launch such products. Hyperliquid has offered markets related to OpenAI and Anthropic through HIP-3, and Binance also provides Pre-IPO perpetual contracts for the two companies. OKX stated that such products are not substitutes for the shares themselves but can meet the ongoing market demand for exposure to large tech companies that have not been publicly listed for a long time.Meanwhile, OKX has also launched 100 tokenized stocks and ETFs, including Nvidia, Alphabet, Palantir, as well as SPY and QQQ, allowing European traders to trade traditional markets around the clock. These tokens track the prices of the underlying securities but do not grant holders actual shares or voting rights, and some tokens can be withdrawn to self-custody wallets. OKX Europe CEO Erald Ghoos stated that the demand for its derivatives business continues to grow, with trading volume for X-Perps in the European market quadrupling since the transition period of MiCA ended in July.

first_img Bitcoin Bancorp acquired the bankrupt Bitcoin Depot for $620,000, including 2,547 ATMs

According to CoinDesk, after the bankruptcy of Bitcoin ATM operator Bitcoin Depot, about a quarter of its more than 9,200 self-service terminals have been sold. The publicly traded digital asset infrastructure company Bitcoin Bancorp (BCBC) won 2,547 of these ATMs for $620,750 and additionally paid $110,500 to acquire related site agreements, intellectual property, trademarks, patents, and the BitcoinDepot.com domain name.Bitcoin Depot filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in May of this year, after its first-quarter revenue fell 49% year-over-year, with profits turning from a $12.2 million gain to a $9.5 million loss. In its last complete financial report before bankruptcy (fourth quarter of 2025), the company valued all properties and equipment (of which 98% were self-service terminals) at over $26 million.Bitcoin Bancorp, headquartered in Las Vegas and formerly known as Bullet Blockchain, trades at $0.04 on the OTC Markets, with a market capitalization of about $18.5 million, far below Bitcoin Depot's peak of about $400 million when it was listed on Nasdaq. The company stated that the remaining deliveries are expected to be completed in the next quarter. Data shows that losses from crypto ATM scams reached $389 million in 2025, a year-on-year increase of 58%. The UK's FCA has announced that crypto ATMs are illegal, and regulators in countries such as Australia and Canada have also intensified their crackdowns.

first_img Coinbase collaborates with Moov to provide stablecoin infrastructure for community banks

According to Cointelegraph, cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase has partnered with financial platform Moov to provide stablecoin infrastructure for over 1,000 community banks and credit unions within Moov's customer base. The two parties will combine Coinbase's regulated digital asset infrastructure with Moov's payment platform to offer stablecoin payment acceptance, settlement, and real-time funding services.This infrastructure will support use cases such as consumer stablecoin payments, merchant settlements, and payments, and will provide businesses and merchants access to Coinbase's custodial accounts. U.S. community banks typically have total assets of less than $10 billion, including state-chartered institutions and savings and loan holding companies.This collaboration comes as major U.S. banks are experimenting with stablecoin infrastructure. On Wednesday, U.S. Bank, the fifth-largest commercial bank in the U.S., completed a real-time cross-border payment using its proprietary stablecoin USBDC on the Stellar blockchain. Earlier this month, 21 financial institutions, including Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, and UBS, announced plans to form a company to issue stablecoins. Additionally, Western Union also partnered with stablecoin infrastructure provider Rain in August to launch a digital wallet and Visa-branded card.

first_img Coinbase CEO stated that a price of $400,000 for Bitcoin by 2030 is still a reasonable target

According to Decrypt, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong stated in an interview with CNBC Squawk Box Asia that a Bitcoin price of $400,000 by 2030 is still a "reasonable goal," despite the current BTC price being around $77,000. He cited the four-year cycle pattern of Bitcoin, noting that the current downturn has lasted about a year, and said, "I personally believe that the bottom of this cycle for Bitcoin has already occurred." He also mentioned that typically there is a price increase before Bitcoin halving, which is expected to occur in about 18 months, stating, "The next one or two years will be a good time for Bitcoin."On the regulatory front, Armstrong is more optimistic about progress in Washington. The U.S. Senate will vote on the Clarity Act on September 15, and he stated that the bill is "ready to pass," with support from law enforcement agencies, several banks, and crypto companies, and the objections previously raised by Coinbase have been resolved. The remaining disagreement concerns the ethical rules regarding the president's family's crypto business, and negotiations are close to reaching a solution. Armstrong expects that regardless of whether the bill passes, there will be regulatory clarity within a month, as the SEC and CFTC have indicated they are ready to issue rules and innovation exemptions based on existing authority.He also cited last year's Genius Act as an example, stating that within three months of the bill's passage, over 150 large companies integrated stablecoins. If the Clarity Act passes, U.S. customers will be able to access tokenized stocks and perpetual contracts.

Bitget has integrated with the official Nasdaq data source, becoming the first cryptocurrency platform in the industry to adopt this standard

According to official news from Bitget, Bitget has completed a comprehensive upgrade of its U.S. stock product market data source, officially connecting to the Nasdaq official data source, becoming the first cryptocurrency trading platform in the industry to adopt this data standard. Compared to the previous data model, Nasdaq official data can provide users with more accurate and timely market data, and maintain better price stability and continuity during periods of significant market fluctuations.To further ensure data quality, after connecting to the official data, Bitget has established a multi-layered assurance mechanism based on the official metadata, including data processing, real-time monitoring, quality comparison, simulation validation, and anomaly data filtering. Nasdaq, as a core data service provider long adopted by global financial markets, has had its data standards validated over many years in the traditional financial sector.This upgrade also marks a further deepening of Bitget's global asset trading infrastructure development. As the trading categories gradually expand from digital assets to global assets such as U.S. stocks, the platform will continue to enhance its underlying data, liquidity, and risk management capabilities, and introduce more mature institutional-level market standards to provide individual investors and institutional clients with a more stable and efficient cross-market trading experience, continuously enhancing the comprehensive competitiveness of its Universal Exchange (UEX).

According to Bloomberg, Jon Cunliffe, the former Deputy Governor for Financial Stability of the Bank of England, has joined the blockchain payment company Fnality and will serve as the Chairman of its UK entity.
