Scammer pumps Ordi token price

An X (Twitter) user GCR, one of the most famous traders in the crypto space, informed his followers that his account was hacked, so ignore any kind of shared information through his X channel.

hacked
ignore everything coming from my channels
— GCR (@GiganticRebirth) May 26, 2024

Another Crypto X user noted that the recently shared information by GCR was something strange. In response, GCR said that someone was bribed at X.com otherwise no one could access his X account. That means an employee from X.com took money to disclose his account details.

Appears someone was bribed at https://t.co/ZZQS3JW0K7

Was notified 2 months ago by someone affiliated with twitter that bribes were had been made to get access to my account, and beefed up security then

But there can't be any security if X employees take money for admin access…

Popular Chinese crypto blogger Colin Wu reported that an unknown hacker hacked GCR’s X account and shared big predictions about the ORDI token price.

This unethical job by the hacker acted as a catalyst to pump the trade price of the ORDI token sharply.

The investigation found that the hacker was ready to make money via setting his position on OKX & Binance exchange in advance, just before 6 minutes of the time when he (scammer) shared fake analysis predictions regarding the ORDI token.

Well-known trader GCR X’s account was stolen. Hackers released bullish and heavy position information on ORDI, causing ODRI to rise from around 38 USDT to 44.5 USDT in the short term. The hacker established positions on OKX and Binance 6 minutes in advance.…

Now Binance & OKX crypto Exchanges may play an important role in catching that scammer/hacker because they can match the name of users in their data panel, who successfully made huge money in the ORDI market with a large position in the reported time frame.

South Korean Stocks Plunge Again, Latest Response from the Blue House

Korean Stock Market Plummets Amid Global Sell-Off, Presidential Office Responds South Korea's stock market experienced a sharp decline on Thursday. The benchmark KOSPI index fell over 4%, with major components SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics dropping over 8% and 5%, respectively. The sell-off quickly spread to related Hong Kong ETFs. The trigger was weak forward guidance from U.S. memory chip giants SanDisk and Western Digital, whose revenue forecasts fell short of lofty market expectations despite strong prior-quarter results. Their subsequent stock plunge led to a sell-off in Asian semiconductor stocks, highlighting the region's dependence on U.S. market sentiment. Since hitting a record high in mid-June, the KOSPI has fallen over 21% in about a month. In response to market volatility, the South Korean government has implemented measures, including raising cash margin requirements for single-stock leveraged ETFs. This led to a significant drop in their trading volume. A senior presidential official stated the focus is on closely monitoring the situation and formulating appropriate countermeasures. Analyst views on the market outlook diverge: while Morgan Stanley sees the sell-off as a buying opportunity due to low valuations, others like China Securities warn of continued high volatility as leverage unwinds. Looking ahead, analysts expect the global memory chip sector to remain in a high-sensitivity phase. However, Goldman Sachs maintains a long-term bullish target of 12,000 for the KOSPI, citing unmet AI-driven demand, with JPMorgan also viewing the pullback as a chance to accumulate positions.

CryptoQuant: Large Investors Are Buying Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP, the Bear Market May Be Approaching Its Final Stage!

Data analysis platform CryptoQuant reports that large-scale investors, or "whales," holding significant amounts of Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and XRP have recently increased their positions. The company suggests this trend may indicate the prolonged crypto bear market is nearing its final stage. Historically, periods of sustained price decline where large investors are buying rather than selling have been a significant indicator. Similar activity was observed in past market cycles when long-term investors deemed prices attractive. However, CryptoQuant emphasizes that current data is insufficient to confirm a market bottom has been reached. While whale accumulation is seen as a positive signal, prices for BTC, ETH, and XRP could still fall further before a definitive bottom forms, warranting investor caution regarding short-term volatility. Experts note this accumulation is often part of a long-term strategy, with large investors buying during panic while retail investors remain cautious—a common characteristic of past cycle endings. CryptoQuant also states that macroeconomic events and global liquidity conditions will remain crucial for price direction. Key factors include central bank monetary policy, regulatory changes, and institutional investor sentiment toward the market. *This is not investment advice.

Tiger Research: What Will the Crypto World Look Like in 2036?

Tiger Research envisions the crypto world of 2036 through four narrative vignettes. In a fictional nation with a hyperinflating currency, the local "Bucks" are nearly obsolete. Citizens and eventually the government itself—for taxes, bonds, and salaries—adopt dollar-pegged stablecoins like USDT and USDC, marking a fundamental shift in monetary sovereignty. In Singapore, a young trader named Lia operates in a borderless, 24/7 market. She trades tokenized versions of everything from NVIDIA stock to Korean real estate indices on decentralized platforms, representing a generation for whom constant, global asset exposure is the norm. An infrastructure engineer, Do-hyun, reflects on the consolidation of blockchain networks. The hundreds of independent chains and Layer 2 solutions that boomed in the 2020s, fueled by incentives, have largely collapsed under their own weight. By 2036, only a few major, efficient infrastructures remain, having absorbed liquidity and users. Finally, media entrepreneur Jae-hoon witnesses the end of the traditional web advertising model. With AI agents generating over half of web traffic by 2029, banner ads become irrelevant. The industry pivots to a new machine-to-machine economy, using protocols like the x402 standard to charge AI models micropayments for direct data access, creating a more reliable revenue stream than human eyeballs ever did. The article paints a picture of 2036 defined by stablecoin adoption as sound money, perpetual global trading of all assets, consolidation into few dominant blockchain infrastructures, and the restructuring of digital commerce around AI agents.

IOSG: How Can Blockchains Keep Secrets? Three Answers to On-Chain Privacy

**Title: IOSG: How Does Blockchain Keep Secrets? Three Answers to On-Chain Privacy** **Summary:** Public blockchains expose every transaction. To protect sensitive data like institutional balances or trade sizes, three main approaches have emerged: 1. **Native Privacy Networks:** Projects like Zcash (with optional privacy) and Monero (with mandatory privacy) build secrecy directly into their own blockchains. However, they exist as isolated "islands," limiting interaction with mainstream DeFi applications. Canton, a permissioned network, offers privacy by restricting data sharing only to transaction participants, which appealed to JPMorgan for its deposit token. 2. **Privacy as an Add-On Layer:** This approach adds privacy to existing chains like Ethereum. Tornado Cash was an early "mixer" but was sanctioned. Railgun provides private balances and payments via zero-knowledge proofs on Ethereum. Zama uses Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) to encrypt balances and amounts on-chain, enabling confidential DeFi activities like private yield vaults and over-the-counter trading while keeping transaction graphs public. 3. **The Core Trade-off:** All solutions sacrifice some privacy for functionality. Truly private chains (Zcash, Monero) lack smart contract versatility. Add-on layers (Zama, Railgun) reveal some metadata to enable computation. "Perfect" privacy that hides everything while allowing full functionality remains elusive. **Market Reality:** Demand is validated, with institutions moving trades off-screen to avoid slippage. However, the sector's revenue (est. $6-7M/year across all protocols) is minuscule compared to the ~$25B market cap of privacy assets. Protocols like Zama charge minimal, usage-based fees, while others like Railgun take a small percentage. The key gap is a sustainable pricing model. The conclusion is bullish on the underlying demand but suggests value will accrue to the applications (trading venues, wallets) that successfully monetize privacy, not necessarily the foundational privacy layers themselves.

Trade.xyz is growing larger, is HYPE the ultimate winner?

The article analyzes Hyperliquid's token HYPE, which has faced bearish pressure due to team token unlocks, institutional selling, and excessive reliance on a single deployment partner, trade.xyz. Data shows HIP-3, Hyperliquid's open perpetuals platform, now drives over 60% of total volume, with trade.xyz capturing nearly 100% of HIP-3 activity. This extreme concentration stems from the mechanism's high staking barrier (500k HYPE), auction-based market creation favoring early movers, and poor economics for other deployers. The pattern is repeating in the newly launched HIP-4 prediction markets. While trade.xyz's growth provides real value—funding protocol fees and buybacks—it creates a dependency. The key risk is whether value accrues to the HYPE token long-term, especially as trade.xyz seeks independent funding at a ~$1.5B valuation. Analysts note both parties are deeply integrated, making a split unlikely, and HYPE's valuation based on cash flow appears relatively cheap versus traditional fintech. The core challenge for Hyperliquid is ensuring protocol-layer value capture amidst this centralized growth.
