Bitrace предупреждает о новом типе криптомошенничества, «когда кража осуществляется с помощью проверки передачи платежного QR-кода, по сути, обманывая пользователей, чтобы они авторизовали кошельки для транзакций в пользу хакера».

По словам Bitrace, афера следует определенной схеме. Во-первых, мошенник предлагает пользователю обменять токены по внебиржевому курсу — через перевод с кошелька на кошелек, а не через обмен — и предлагает обменный курс, который превосходит рыночный.

Он также предлагает комиссию, номинированную в токенах Tron (TRX) в обмен на долгосрочное сотрудничество. Чтобы завоевать доверие пользователя, они даже делает небольшую выплату в USDT, стейблкоине, привязанном к доллару.

Именно тогда мошенник просит пользователя принять участие в «небольшом тесте погашения», который якобы включает возврат USDT путем сканирования QR-кода. QR-код направляет пользователя на сторонний веб-сайт с просьбой подтвердить «тестовую» транзакцию. Нажатие «подтвердить» крадет авторизацию кошелька пользователя, заявили в Bitrace.

По данным Bitrace, жертвами, по всей видимости, стали не менее 27 владельцев кошельков, в совокупности потерявших около 120 000 USDT. Атаки происходили в период с 11 по 17 июля, и мошенник использовал один и тот же кошелек в каждом случае.

По данным Bittrace, затем средства были переведены через пять промежуточных адресов на три счета на камбоджийской криптобирже Huione для отмывания денег.

В 2024 году количество кибератак растет. По данным компании по кибербезопасности Cyvers, общий объем украденных криптовалютных средств в этом году приближается к 1,4 млрд долларов.

Захват контроля доступа — часто в форме фишинговых атак — составили подавляющее большинство украденных средств, около 490 млн долларов только во втором квартале.

«Проверка риска адреса контрагента перед транзакцией имеет решающее значение», — заявила Bitrace, добавив, что компания разрабатывает «инструмент проверки риска в один клик, который поможет пользователям выявлять потенциальные риски, связанные с целевыми адресами».

Strike While the Iron is Hot: GPT-5.6's Three Major Models Fully Exposed, Scheduled for July 7th?

GPT-5.6 Models Leaked, Rumored for July 7th Release A leak from the Codex application's source code has revealed references to three upcoming GPT-5.6 sub-models: Sol, Terra, and Luna. A new "speed dial" feature was also discovered, suggesting users will be able to balance response speed and quality. According to rumors, OpenAI is targeting a release window of July 7th to 9th, strategically timed to coincide with the expiration of access limits for Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 model. Early comparative tests between a leaked GPT-5.6-terra version and Fable 5 show GPT-5.6 achieving similar or better results while using significantly fewer computational resources and responding faster. In complex coding tasks, GPT-5.6 demonstrated more efficient and user-collaborative problem-solving. The reported launch date appears calculated to capitalize on growing user frustration with competitor models. Anthropic's Fable 5 has faced criticism for overly aggressive safety filters that frequently downgrade responses and for severe "hallucination" issues in its Opus 4.8 model. Leaks also suggest GPT-5.6 Sol could be offered at a much lower price than Fable 5 while matching its performance. A final note warns developers with unused "rate limit reset" credits in Codex to use them before they expire around July 12th, ahead of the anticipated GPT-5.6 launch.

Valuation of $8 Billion, Up 200% in 8 Months! What's Behind Crypto-Friendly Bank Erebor Bank's Rise?

Erebor Bank, a digital bank founded by Palmer Luckey and backed by Peter Thiel, is in talks for new funding at a target valuation of $8 billion, double its $4.35 billion valuation from December. This surge is driven by explosive deposit growth, which soared from $1.1 billion in March to approximately $4.05 billion within a quarter, alongside adding nearly 400 new clients. The bank, launched in February 2026, holds a full national bank charter from the OCC, a strategic choice to avoid reliance on partner banks. It aims to serve tech startups, defense contractors, and crypto-native businesses, addressing gaps left by Silicon Valley Bank's collapse. Core promises include lending against non-traditional assets like hardware, offering 24/7 settlement, and integrating stablecoin services with traditional banking. It has already enabled stablecoin deposits and withdrawals on the Sui network. However, its current financials show minimal lending activity and a net loss, with high liquidity in cash and securities. The valuation hinges on future potential to monetize deposits through lending and crypto services. The bank's experienced management team includes veterans from Wells Fargo and crypto compliance firms. Risks are significant. Its concentrated customer base and exposure to volatile sectors like crypto and venture capital echo SVB's vulnerabilities. Its entire model depends on continued regulatory favor towards digital assets, which could shift. Erebor represents a high-profile experiment at the intersection of banking, crypto, and industrial policy, with its execution and market demand yet to be fully proven.

$8 Billion Valuation, 2x Growth in 8 Months! What Makes Crypto-Friendly Bank Erebor Bank So Special?

Erebor Bank, a crypto-friendly U.S. bank founded by Palmer Luckey, is reportedly in talks for a new funding round targeting a valuation of at least $8 billion, double its $4.35 billion valuation from December. Despite being operational for only a few months, its rapid growth—deposits surged from $1.1 billion in March to approximately $4.05 billion within a quarter, adding nearly 400 clients—has attracted investor interest. The bank aims to fill the void left by Silicon Valley Bank's collapse, targeting startups and businesses with non-traditional assets like defense contracts and digital tokens. Its strategy involves holding its own banking license to offer services like stablecoin deposits, payments, and 24/7 on-chain settlement. While digital assets are a core long-term focus, recent growth has been driven more by financing for U.S. manufacturing and defense sectors. Erebor's leadership combines Luckey's tech/defense background with a seasoned financial team. It received a national bank charter from the OCC in early 2026, benefiting from a favorable regulatory climate for digital assets. However, the bank faces significant risks, including reliance on a concentrated client base, exposure to crypto market volatility, potential regulatory shifts, and the unproven demand for its integrated banking model. Investors are betting on its future potential to monetize deposits through lending and crypto services, despite current losses typical for a new bank.
