币界网报道:

香港警方拘捕三名人士,他们涉嫌向一名商人提供三捆1000港元伪钞,骗取311万港元,价值约39.9万美元的加密资产。

据报道,警方在上周对旺角办事处的突击搜查中没收了10978张1000港元的假钞,该办事处是欺诈交易的发生地。

加密货币欺诈案

一位消息人士告诉《南华早报》,这位44岁的商人在弥敦道被展示了三捆看似1000港元的钞票,然后被指示将311万港元的Tether USDT稳定币转移到指定的数字钱包。

一位知情人士表示:,

“除了放在每捆钞票顶部和底部的两张真钞外,其他都是假钞,被称为训练钞。”

消息人士还提到,该商人要求检查钞票。然而,两名似乎是办公室员工的被告拒绝了,称他们没有通过电话收到商店经理的指示。在发现行为可疑后,受害者报警。

被告是一名24岁的男子和一名42岁的女子。除上述两名男子外,香港警方其后在该办事处发现伪钞,并拘捕另一名男子。三人因涉嫌以欺骗手段获取财产和持有假钞而被拘留。

香港涉及加密货币交易的欺诈案件激增。事实上,警方在另外三起涉及加密货币交易的欺诈案件中查获了1693份“培训笔记”。

加密欺诈增加迫使香港提高技能

香港已成为亚洲主要的加密货币中心。然而,在吸引资本的同时,这个城市国家也经历了欺诈活动的增加,这迫使当局提高了他们的技能。专家指出,香港在处理加密货币方面积累了丰富的执法经验,使当局能够有效追踪涉及数字资产的洗钱活动。

与此同时,香港证券及期货事务监察委员会(证监会)加强了对可疑加密货币实体的监督。本月早些时候,证券监管机构对在该地区非法运营的七个加密货币交易平台发出警告,这些平台没有适当的许可证。

自2020年1月以来,香港证监会一直保持着一份警报名单,目前包括39个条目。仅在2024年,就有28家加密货币交易所被标记。最新上榜的有Taurusemex、Yomaex、Bitones.org、BTEPRO、CEG、XTCQT和Bstorest。

Unstoppable Domains Abandons Plans to Integrate .crypto and .bitcoin into DNS

Unstoppable Domains has abandoned its plans to integrate nine of its Web3 domain extensions, including .crypto and .bitcoin, into the traditional DNS system. The company cited ICANN requirements and the high costs of the application program as reasons for the decision. Other affected domains are .wallet, .polygon, .nft, .dao, .unstoppable, .zil, and .blockchain. They will continue to function as on-chain domains but will not become native DNS zones. The applications for the nine domains would have cost over $2 million, not including additional compliance expenses and potential auctions. Founder Matthew Gould stated the total costs outweighed expected revenues. A major obstacle was ICANN's proposed integration rules, which would require registering every existing on-chain domain in a unified zone and disclosing owner data—affecting over 4 million domains, many purchased as one-time, anonymous assets. In response to user criticism, the company is offering refunds for domains purchased after its public ICANN announcement dates, with the refund window open from August 25 to September 25. Unstoppable Domains clarified that the domains retain all their on-chain functionalities. The company is still proceeding with ICANN applications for five other domain extensions: .agi, .robot, .gram, .hub, and .xmr, developed with partners like 0G, Telegram, Monero, and Hub Culture. The first approved domains from the current ICANN round are expected by mid-2027, with a full DNS launch anticipated in late 2027 or 2028.
