  • Минюст США заявил, что группе злоумышленников, которая проникала в дома с целью ограбления и кражи цифровых активов, вынесли приговоры.
  • Лидер преступников получил 47 лет тюрьмы, а один из ключевых пособников — 20 лет ограничения свободы.
  • За время своей деятельности грабители украли активы на более чем $3,5 млн.

В США группу преступников из 12 человек осудили за серию проникновений в дома и многочисленные грабежи. Основной целью злоумышленников были криптокошельки пострадавших, доступ к которым они получали, держа жертв под дулом пистолета.

По данным Министерства юстиции США (DOJ), группу возглавлял 25-летний Реми Ра Сент-Феликс из Уэст-Палм-Бич, штат Флорида. Грабители действовали в нескольких регионах США. Для связи между собой и планирования операций они применяли зашифрованные мессенджеры.

Злоумышленники использовали подмену SIM-карт для получения контроля над телефонными номерами своих жертв. После этого они проникали в дома, связывали пострадавших пластиковыми стяжками и под пытками добивались передачи всех криптоактивов.

Часто для принуждения владельцев счетов к сотрудничеству группа оказывала давление на их родных. Членов семьей избивали, угрожали застрелить и пугали различными насильственными действиями.

«Заговорщики отмывали средства через криптоактивы с усиленной анонимностью, а также через мгновенные биржи и децентрализованные финансовые платформы, которые не проводили проверки своих клиентов», — заявили в Минюсте США.

В результате своей деятельности злоумышленники сумели завладеть в общей сложности активами на более чем $3,5 млн. Глава банды получил 47 лет за руководство группой, грабеж и другие преступления. Еще один активный участник преступного объединения и соавтор схемы — Джарод Габриэль Симунгал — отправится в тюрьму на 20 лет.

Остальные участники банды получили сроки от 6 до 25 лет, а приговор последнему обвиняемому суд намерен вынести 1 октября 2024 года. Помимо этого, все члены преступной группы должны возместить нанесенный ущерб. Сумма выплат варьируется от $355 800 до $4 млн.

Напомним, мы писали, что согласно отчету Федерального бюро расследований (ФБР), убытки от криптомошенничества выросли на 45% в 2023 году.

Second Half of U.S. Crypto Policy: The Clarity Act Aims for 60 Votes, CFTC's "One-Person Commission" Becomes Biggest Variable

In a pivotal year for US crypto policy, the "CLARITY Act" is advancing in the Senate but faces a high hurdle, needing 60 votes to pass. Key challenges include bridging partisan divides on ethics and swaying undecided Republican senators within a tight legislative calendar of only about 40 working days. The policy "second half" involves intense negotiations on a broader framework for Web3 and DeFi, including crypto tax reforms and the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act. A significant uncertainty is the understaffed CFTC, operating with four commissioner vacancies, which complicates regulatory clarity. Meanwhile, the departure of key "crypto champions"—SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce and Senator Cynthia Lummis—will impact ongoing policy efforts. Industry experts are cautiously optimistic but realistic. Sara K. Weed notes that while progress is being made, CLARITY is unlikely to pass this Congress, pushing agencies like the SEC and CFTC to provide more guidance. Sulolit Mukherjee suggests meaningful crypto tax legislation is more likely to be attached to larger must-pass bills. Rashan Colbert discusses the jurisdictional debate over prediction markets, emphasizing the need for a regulatory framework that fosters their development as financial tools rather than treating them broadly as gambling. The clock is ticking, but opportunities remain for substantive progress through continued bipartisan dialogue and pragmatic efforts.

Dan Koe's New Essay: Escaping the Fate of the Wage Slave, How to Survive the AI Replacement Wave?

Dan Koe argues that the true threat in the AI era isn't technology itself, but a reliance on others for one's livelihood and happiness. The core problem is "wage slavery"—spending life on unfulfilling work. To survive and thrive, one must escape this by building their own enterprise. The key is developing five elements: Agency (initiative), Taste (discernment), Persuasion, Persistence, and Iteration. These boil down to problem-solving skills and experiential knowledge, which cannot be learned passively but only through doing your own projects. The solution is to become "unemployable" by shifting your identity. This requires: 1) Radically changing your environment to force growth, 2) Choosing a medium (like content creation) that provides real feedback through trial and error, and 3) Mastering either code or, preferably, media (content). Content creation is more valuable because its subjective nature and need for human perspective create a durable advantage over generic AI output. To start, define your life's work by answering foundational questions about your innate knowledge, unique abilities, and contrarian beliefs. Then, immediately act by publishing your first piece of content. The cycle of creating, receiving feedback, and iterating is the essential path to developing the skills needed for an independent, meaningful career and financial resilience.

Research Report Analysis: Morgan Stanley Details SanDisk SNDK, The Truth About Cloud Data Center Pricing Power and AI Inference Benefits

Morgan Stanley raised its price target for SanDisk (SNDK) from $1100 to $1750 on June 22, maintaining an Overweight rating. The upgrade is driven by AI inference demand reshaping the NAND market, particularly for KV Cache and context window storage in cloud data centers. These cloud clients exhibit price inelasticity and sign long-term contracts, granting SanDisk significant pricing power. SanDisk's New Business Model (NBM) agreements, covering over one-third of FY27 bit shipments with 3-5 year terms and fixed price/price collar structures, are crucial. They are projected to sustain gross margins around 80% even at floor prices, providing a buffer against cyclical downturns. Morgan Stanley forecasts gross margins to surge from 30.3% in FY25 to 86.7% in FY27e. With NAND supply expected to remain tight into 2026/2027 and cloud/data centers becoming the largest end-market, SanDisk holds supply-side pricing power. The company targets 15-19% bit growth via technology transitions, not capacity expansion. Revenue is projected to grow ~6.6x from FY25 to FY27, with EPS rising from $2.74 to $14.73, driven by high-margin cloud business. Key upside catalysts include faster enterprise SSD adoption and edge AI growth. Downside risks involve slower industry growth, competitor capex increases, market share loss, and competition from Chinese players like YMTC. The investment thesis rests on AI-driven structural demand, NBM's margin protection, and sustained supply tightness. The $1750 target implies ~28x FY27e P/E.

8.5 Million USDT Flees Overnight: Can High-Yield Stablecoin Vaults Still Be Safely Deposited?

$8.5M USDT Exodus Triggers High-Yield Stablecoin Vault Shutdown Fears of a liquidity crunch following a third-party auditor's withdrawal from competitor MainStreet triggered over $8.5 million in user withdrawals from Altura's stablecoin vault in 24 hours, forcing it to begin an orderly wind-down. Altura clarified it holds no MainStreet assets, indicating the crisis stemmed from a sector-wide loss of confidence rather than direct asset contagion. The incident highlights a critical vulnerability in high-yield stablecoin products: a mismatch between user expectations for instant redemptions and the illiquid, long-duration nature of underlying investments like private credit and real-world assets (RWA). Even without actual losses, the mere prospect of being last in line for repayment can spark a debilitating bank run. The key lesson is that operational liquidity risk and market confidence are decisive factors. Tools like reserve audits, intended to reduce uncertainty, can backfire if their withdrawal accelerates panic faster than assurances can spread. The industry must now observe how Altura manages its asset liquidation and user reimbursements, a process that will test the feasibility of offering DeFi-native speeds on traditionally illiquid yield strategies.
