Resumen

At 4:57 p.m. UTC, the account posted an advertisement for "free $COMP tokens," urging readers to click a link provided. The link leads to compound-labs.xyz, a website that looks identical to the protocol's official website at compound.finance, but has been identified as a scam site.

According to Scam Sniffer's post, the fake phishing site that is being advertised by the hacker is a "Pink Drainer scam website," implying that it is a phishing site that uses the Pink Drainer software to steal users' crypto. The post also states that blockchain investigator ZachXBT has traced funds that have been stolen by the site. The stolen funds have been laundered through the eXch exchange.
This is a developing story, and further information will be added as it becomes available.

Tron traders on alert! THIS make-or-break level will decide TRX’s next move

Tron (TRX) traders are watching a key support level as the cryptocurrency, which has gained 13.44% year-to-date, approaches a potential turning point. The asset is testing a crucial support zone between $0.318 and $0.320, a level that has previously initiated two rallies. A bounce from this support, followed by a close above $0.334, could propel TRX toward $0.353 and $0.377. Conversely, a break below $0.310 would signal a bearish shift, indicating a steeper decline. While the chart shows fading momentum into support, technical indicators offer a more bullish perspective. Bollinger Band analysis suggests the middle band has held as support on recent touches, and the Money Flow Index reading of 65 indicates continued capital inflow. The immediate price action at this make-or-break support level will determine TRX's next significant move.

FBI urges OneCoin victims to claim share of $40M recovery before June 30 deadline

The FBI is urging victims of the massive OneCoin cryptocurrency fraud to file claims for compensation before the June 30, 2026 deadline. Eligible investors who purchased OneCoin packages between Q4 2014 and Q4 2019 and suffered a net loss may seek reimbursement through the U.S. Department of Justice's remission program. This program is funded by over $40 million in assets forfeited during the prosecution of the scheme's operators. OneCoin, falsely marketed as a cryptocurrency, operated as a pyramid scheme that defrauded investors worldwide of more than $4 billion. Co-founder Karl Sebastian Greenwood was sentenced to 20 years in prison, while Ruja Ignatova remains a fugitive on the FBI's Most Wanted list. The DOJ-administered program is independent of criminal proceedings and requires victims to submit petitions officially for review.

MSTR Slips Below $100 As STRC Preferred Trades Deep Below Par

MicroStrategy's (MSTR) common stock has fallen below $100, while its STRC preferred shares are trading significantly below their $100 par value. This pressure on the company's capital stack has renewed debate about the durability of its leveraged Bitcoin treasury model. The weakening of both equity and preferred instruments complicates future capital issuance, potentially limiting one of the channels used to fund additional Bitcoin purchases. While this does not force immediate Bitcoin sales, it reduces the company's financial flexibility and market optionality. The situation puts scrutiny on whether the corporate Bitcoin accumulation narrative, for which MicroStrategy has been a flagship example, can sustain momentum if market confidence in its securities erodes. The broader impact is largely narrative, with bulls viewing it as typical volatility for a leveraged Bitcoin proxy and bears questioning the sustainability of the model under weaker market conditions.

Google's 'Reasoning King' Also Departs for Meta, Originally Recruited by Fei-Fei Li

"Google's 'King of Reasoning' Leaves for Meta, Quietly Departing After Over Eight Years. Denny Zhou, a key figure behind Google's AI reasoning advancements including work showcased by CEO Sundar Pichai, has joined Meta's MSL as a research scientist. His low-profile move, discovered via a LinkedIn update, occurred months before the high-profile departures of Noam Shazeer to OpenAI and Nobel laureate John Jumper to Anthropic. Zhou was originally recruited to Google by Fei-Fei Li's China center initiative after nearly 11 years at Microsoft. This is part of a significant talent drain at Google, with top researchers like Shazeer (co-author of the Transformer paper) and Jumper (AlphaFold lead) recently leaving for rivals. Reports suggest internal friction is a contributing factor, particularly around Google's strategic shift. The company has reportedly formed a high-priority 'AI Coding Strike Team,' involving co-founder Sergey Brin, to urgently bridge the gap in AI coding agents, potentially reallocating resources and focus away from other research directions like DeepMind's 'world model' AGI approach. This pivot towards commercially-proven coding applications may have influenced departures, as hinted by Shazeer's comment about his compute allocation being given to another team. Meanwhile, Meta continues to bolster its team, also recently hiring UC Berkeley professor and 'security godmother' Dawn Song, along with her startup Virtue AI team, as a VP of AI research."
