Cryptocurrency casino Gamdom was extorted by the organization Whitearmor for a ransom of 15 million dollars in Bitcoin

According to Bitcoin.com, the cyber extortion group Whitearmor claimed on October 26 that it had stolen 15,420,003 account records from the crypto casino Gamdom, with each account containing 146 data fields, and demanded a payment of 15 million dollars in Bitcoin, or else they would expose sensitive customer information.The group has published a JSON sample of about 437KB, containing approximately 100 records as so-called evidence on its ransom website, claiming that the cumulative profits corresponding to these accounts exceed 1 billion dollars, but did not specify how this was calculated. It is reported that the attackers exploited an internal machine account with administrator privileges that had not rotated its credentials for a long time.Previously, Gamdom suffered a hot wallet attack on October 13, with founder Felix Römer admitting losses exceeding 3 million dollars, and blockchain researcher vxdb estimating the stolen amount across multiple networks to be about 4.2 million dollars. After suspending operations, the platform resumed on October 16, stating that user balances were unaffected. Gamdom disputed the scale of 15.4 million accounts but acknowledged that usernames, email addresses, and gambling activity information may have been exposed, while stating that verification documents were not affected.

first_img Visser Labs Founder: Cryptocurrency Assets May Outperform AI Stocks

According to Cointelegraph, Jordi Visser, founder of Visser Labs, former Managing Director at Morgan Stanley, and Chief Investment Officer at Weiss, stated in the Cointelegraph podcast "Trade Secrets" that crypto assets may yield better returns from the AI boom than AI stocks. He believes that AI entities are creating demand for crypto payments and tokenized assets, stating, "Without AI, the crypto market will not emerge from this bull market."Visser compared AI entities to the App Store or smartphones in the crypto industry, where users can instruct the entities to execute financial operations such as trades on their behalf. He also cautioned about risks: if AI experiences a severe downturn and drags down the stock market, it could cause the crypto market to retest previous lows, but it would not end the bull market. He mentioned that the "fireworks show" of AI has ended, not the end of AI itself, and investors should lower their expectations for returns from AI stocks.In terms of holdings, as of August, Visser only held Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana, and then began buying a broader range of tokens, with Bitcoin still being his largest position. He is watching Dogecoin as a signal of retail enthusiasm returning and maintains an equally weighted index composed of 42 tokens and 4 publicly traded stocks, which has outperformed Bitcoin since June. He has also positioned himself in privacy themes, believing that Zcash and Monero align with his investment logic.

Wintermute: Bitcoin has fallen for the third consecutive week, with $80,000 becoming a key support level

Market maker Wintermute stated that Bitcoin fell 2.43% last week, marking its third consecutive week of losses, dropping below the support level of $82,500 and testing the $80,000 mark again. Macroeconomically, rising energy prices and inflation concerns are replacing AI financing issues as the main risks in the market. Bitcoin's recent movements are highly correlated with the Nasdaq and AI-related stocks, and ETF fund flows have begun to fluctuate in both directions.Wintermute indicated that the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision and policy statements will be important short-term catalysts. If it fails to hold above $80,000, the next key support level is $76,000; if it effectively breaks below this, the price may further explore the $70,000 range. In the short term, it needs to regain the $82,000 to $82,500 range to have a chance of restoring an upward trend. If the Federal Reserve leans hawkish, the market may reassess the expectations for a rate hike in December, raising investment yields and increasing downward pressure on Bitcoin; if it leaves room for a December decision, it may create conditions for a rebound.The institution stated that before the Federal Reserve's decision and the release of the U.S. third-quarter GDP and September PCE, market directional confidence is insufficient, and caution will be maintained. If the Federal Reserve leans dovish but the PCE is higher than expected, the market may sell off tech stocks due to inflation pressure, dragging down Bitcoin. Wintermute emphasized that it is not clearly bearish at the moment, but remains cautious until Bitcoin regains the $82,500 level.
