Высокий суд Глазго признал 41-летнего Мартина Риди (Martin Ready) виновным в попытке организовать убийство местного прокурора Даррена Харти (Darren Harty) за биткоины через даркнет.

С 29 мая 2021 года по 15 сентября 2022-го мужчина, по мнению суда, создал несколько аккаунтов на даркнет-площадке. Он заплатил киллеру 5071,24 фунтов стерлингов ($6684) в биткоинах, дав указание застрелить прокурора и предоставив информацию о потенциальном местонахождении жертвы.

Во время дачи показаний Риди называл себя мстителем и «злым Иисусом». Когда-то мужчины познакомились в пабе, принадлежащему семье прокурора Харти в городке Коутбридж Северного Ланаркшира. По словам обвиняемого, он спланировал убийство, чтобы разоблачить организованную преступность. «Злой Иисус» верил, что, если прокурор будет убит, общественность сможет узнать об отмывании денег, которое, как утверждал Риди, происходило в пабе.

Согласно показаниям самого Харти, в пабе не происходило никакой противоправной деятельности. В этом заведении будущий прокурор работал около десяти лет назад, когда учился в университете. Кроме того, отец обвиняемого сообщил суду, что Риди провел некоторое время в психиатрической клинике, и для него характерно параноидальное поведение.

Недавно правоохранительным органам Нью-Йорка удалось предотвратить два убийства, заказанных через даркнет. Злоумышленница успела перевести наемному убийце биткоины на сумму $5 000.

Summary: A former ByteDance employee describes how a personal observation led to a highly profitable investment in Seagate Technology ($STX). Needing hard drives for a personal data project in August, he noticed their prices on Pinduoduo were rising consistently. Investigating further using price-tracking tools, he confirmed a broader, sustained price increase for high-capacity HDDs. He traced this to surging AI demand, as data centers require massive, cost-effective storage for model training and data, favoring high-capacity enterprise HDDs like those from Seagate. This demand was squeezing consumer supply. After initial research and a small purchase, he waited for confirmation from institutional 13F filings. Seeing a clear multi-quarter trend of increasing institutional ownership in Seagate, he significantly increased his position. From an entry around $150, Seagate's stock price rose over sixfold to approximately $965. He attributes the success to a methodology of identifying anomalies in everyday life (e.g., product shortages/price hikes), researching the underlying structural cause, identifying the publicly-traded beneficiary, and using 13F data to confirm institutional interest over multiple quarters. He cautions that this was one successful case among others that failed and is not offering investment advice.

BTC Hits Its Lowest Point Since 2024, But Is It Still Not the Right Time to Buy the Dip?

**Summary:** Bitcoin (BTC) has plunged to new lows in 2024, dropping over 50% from its all-time high to around $57,800, while Ethereum and Solana also show significant weakness. The market sentiment is at "extreme fear." The primary headwinds are identified as massive and sustained net outflows from US spot Bitcoin ETFs since May 2026, creating significant selling pressure, and the evaporation of expectations for a US Federal Reserve interest rate cut in 2026, which makes holding cash and bonds more attractive than risk assets like crypto. Analysts are actively debating the potential bottom. Key predictions include: * **glassnode's Rafael:** Suggests a bottom between $46,000 and $54,000, based on on-chain metrics like Realized Price and CVDD. He notes that institutional demand (via ETFs) is currently a net seller, not a buyer. * **BIT Analysis:** Argues the bear market is in its final stage, with a potential bottoming zone between $50,000 and $55,000, possibly aligning with the 2026 FIFA World Cup period (June-July). * **Wintermute:** Believes the market is in the late stages of a bear market but cautions the true bottom may not arrive until September-October 2026, contingent on renewed capital inflows. * **Liquid Capital's JackYi:** Posits that July-August 2026 could be the final capitulation and the best accumulation window, with potential bottom prices ranging from $51,000 to $43,000. * **Jiang Zhuo'er (BTC.TOP):** Predicts a bottom between $42,000 and $44,000 in October-December 2026, based on cycle analysis and MSTR's mNAV metric. * **Prediction Markets:** Polymarket data indicates a 79% chance BTC falls below $55,000 in 2026, a 65% chance below $50,000, and a 30% chance below $40,000. The consensus is that while bearish conditions are severe, the exact timing and price level of the ultimate bottom remain uncertain and depend on factors like ETF flows, macroeconomic policy, and potential market shocks.
