В Таиланде полицейские пойдут под суд за вымогательство криптовалют

Согласно жалобе пострадавшего по имени Сай (Sai), полицейские совместно с китайской супружеской парой, выступавшей в качестве переводчиков, организовали ложный арест ради вымогательства стейблкоинов в качестве выкупа. Полицейские ворвалась в дом Сая, предъявив поддельный ордер на обыск. Офицеры изъяли у семьи жертвы мобильные телефоны и компьютер, а затем пригрозили обвинить в найме на работу домашних работников-нелегалов. За снятие обвинений полицейские потребовали 10 млн USDT.

Сай отрицал обвинения и сказал, что у него нет таких денег. Попав с женой в полицейский участок для допроса, Сай согласился заплатить взятку 165 000 (5,6 млн бат). Отдав стейблкоины, семья смогла забрать мобильные телефоны, однако компьютер вернуть не удалось. Заподозрив мошенничество, Сай нанял адвоката для расследования дела и подал в суд на причастных сотрудников полиции. Обман раскрылся и полицейских задержали.

Вымогатели опровергли выдвинутые против них обвинения и были освобождены под залог до суда. Расследованием дела занялась Национальная антикоррупционная комиссия — в течение 30 дней с момента подачи жалобы ведомство обязано опубликовать отчет о проведенной работе.

В апреле суд Пхукета приговорил пятерых российских граждан к двум годам тюрьмы за вымогательство криптовалют у отдыхавших в Таиланде туристов. В прошлом году власти страны арестовали четырех офицеров иммиграционного ведомства, укравших у китайского бизнесмена 30 000 USDT.

Crypto Welcomes the 'July Rebound'? On-Chain Bottom Signals Align, Reversal Still Requires Breakthrough Above $70k

The cryptocurrency market is showing signs of a potential "July rebound," with Bitcoin leading a recovery above $63,000 and total market cap rising. This bounce is attributed to improved macro expectations (weaker US jobs data easing Fed hike fears), a short squeeze in derivatives, and signs of whale accumulation. Key on-chain metrics signal a potential bottom, including the Sharpe Ratio hitting extreme lows, the AHR999 index nearing historic buy zones, and miner pressure reaching significant levels. However, analysts caution this is likely a corrective rebound rather than a confirmed trend reversal. Persistent challenges include weak spot demand, negative Coinbase Premium indicating institutional caution, and ongoing selling pressure in the altcoin market. Market sentiment remains in "extreme fear" territory, and the AVIV ratio suggests the average active Bitcoin investor is still at a loss. For a true bullish reversal, Bitcoin needs to convincingly break above the key $70,000 level (aligned with the Short-Term Holder Realized Price). The path to a new parabolic bull market is seen as dependent on attracting substantially more capital, as capital efficiency has declined. While prices may be approaching a cyclical bottom zone (with estimates between $37k-$60k), the market requires more sustained positive signals for a definitive uptrend.

1600 Lines of Code Create an Underwater Manhattan, Fable 5 Leaves Karpathy Stunned

Title: Fable 5 Stuns Karpathy with 3D Worlds Built from 1600 Lines of Code An AI model, Fable 5, has demonstrated a remarkable leap in generating complex, interactive 3D worlds with minimal code. Showcased by Peter Gostev of Arena.ai, the model created 63 diverse 3D environments across themes like immersive cityscapes, explorable famous paintings, natural wonders, and cosmic phenomena. Many were generated in a single attempt. A standout creation is a detailed, submerged Manhattan built with only 1600 lines of Three.js code. Other highlights include traversable versions of Van Gogh's "Starry Night," a bear catching a salmon with realistic physics, and a split Red Sea. The model's ability to cohesively manage vast numbers of elements within a scene represents a significant technical advancement. Andrej Karpathy, who recently joined Anthropic's pre-training team, expressed amazement, particularly at how the model intuitively understood and rendered complex real-world interactions like a fish struggling when caught. He coined the term "fablemaxxing" to describe this qualitative leap. While Fable 5 excels at world-building, Gostev notes current limitations in creating engaging, long-form gameplay. The model also sometimes requires prompting to fully utilize its capabilities. Having topped the Agent Arena benchmark for real-world task completion, Fable 5 signals that the boundaries of AI-generated content are rapidly expanding, with its full potential yet to be discovered.

From ANSEM to CZ, The Celebrity Coin Relay Race Between Solana and BSC

The past week was a whirlwind of on-chain activity, sparked by the meteoric rise of $ANSEM, a Solana-based meme coin that surged 600x and hit a $100 million market cap in a single day. This rally began when crypto influencer Ansem announced his return to buying Solana meme coins and publicly advocated for an airdrop from the platform pump.fun. Ansem’s subsequent "soft claim" of the token—promising to airdrop creator revenue to followers—ignited a frenzy, drawing comparisons to past community-led token distributions. However, his dual role as a co-founder of the trading terminal Bullpen, which later hosted the $ANSEM airdrop, suggests a strategic promotional element. The narrative quickly shifted to "celebrity coins," where tokens named after influencers are sent to their public addresses in hopes of endorsement. While a similar coin, $TJR, briefly gained traction, it faltered after the influencer TJR urged focus back on $ANSEM. Attention then turned to projects Ansem endorsed and coins found in his wallet, like $manlet, but momentum on Solana began to stall. The action then migrated to BSC with the viral resurgence of a 2021 tweet from former Binance CEO CZ, referencing a "final form" bull. This sparked the explosive launch of $CZ, which briefly approached a $90 million market cap despite expectations that CZ wouldn't actively engage like Ansem. Another BSC token, $TCC, gained attention due to CZ's interactions with its promoter. The BSC ecosystem saw faster-paced, albeit volatile, "celebrity coin" plays, with tokens like $dingaling experiencing rapid pumps and dumps without official endorsements. Currently, BSC shows more momentum for new token launches than Solana, with the market awaiting a new narrative to succeed the fleeting "celebrity coin" trend.
