SlowMist: Криптомошенники маскируются под компании по безопасности

Основатель компании SlowMist Юй Сянь (Yu Xian) предупредил криптосообщество об обнаружении в соцсети X поддельных аккаунтов, маскирующихся под известные компании по безопасности в сфере блокчейна.

Сянь завил, что фальшивые аккаунты клонируют профили известных аналитиков, таких как ZachXBT. В первую очередь в зону риска попадают криптоинвесторы, которые пишут в чатах о проблемах с кошельками и сложностях с прохождением транзакций. Преступники обращаются к ним от имени экспертов известных компаний и предлагают свою помощь в решении проблем.

«Поскольку фальшивые аккаунты принадлежат организованным преступным группировкам, которые якобы предлагают криптоинвесторам помощь, в итоге они наносят еще больший вред», — заявил Сянь.

Он отметил, что мошенники перенаправляют пользователей на поддельные платформы, которые тщательно копируют дизайн и функционал настоящих сервисов для верификации и проверки подписей, с целью хищения личной информации и криптоактивов жертв. При этом тактика мошенников строится на создании атмосферы срочности, использовании страха и доверия криптоинвесторов.

Ранее мошенники украли более 1 млн британских фунтов стерлингов ($1,2 млн) у жителей графства Кент, получив доступ к личной информации криптоинвесторов.

The first to catch the wave of the Robinhood Chain hype is Arbitrum, up nearly 20%

"ARB, the native token of Arbitrum, surged nearly 20% recently, emerging as a top-performing L2 token. This rally is attributed to the launch of 'Robinhood Chain,' a Real-World Asset (RWA) Layer 2 built using Arbitrum's technology. The launch has brought renewed attention to the 'Arbitrum Expansion Plan' (AEP), a year-and-a-half-old program. AEP allows external projects to build their own chains using Arbitrum's Orbit technology. In return, these 'tenant' chains that do not settle on Arbitrum's main networks must share 10% of their net protocol revenue with the Arbitrum ecosystem—8% to the DAO treasury and 2% to the developer guild. While smaller chains like Degen Chain previously triggered AEP, Robinhood Chain is the first major, high-profile tenant, making the revenue-sharing model economically significant for the first time. Initial data from Robinhood Chain is impressive, with over 35 million transactions, 350,000 addresses, $2.5 billion in TVL, and over $1 billion in DEX volume shortly after launch. However, its current protocol revenue, at roughly $146,000 net, translates to only a minimal payout to Arbitrum DAO. The ARB price surge thus reflects the market's anticipation of future revenue as Robinhood's vast $324 billion platform assets potentially migrate on-chain. This 'landlord' model mirrors Optimism's approach with its OP Stack and Superchain. However, Optimism's model faces pressure as its largest tenant, Base, announced plans to depart, causing a significant drop in OP's price. Similarly, analysts question Robinhood Chain's long-term dependence on Arbitrum, noting its daily sequencer revenue already nears three times that of Arbitrum itself. There is speculation that, like Base, it may eventually seek independence, with ETH potentially being its primary economic token rather than ARB."

The Ethereum Foundation is Dead, The Era of Ethereum's Pluralistic Organizations Has Dawned

The Ethereum Foundation (EF) has announced the dissolution of its Protocol Support Team, marking a significant organizational shift. This move, described as the largest layoff in EF's history with a 20% staff reduction, follows a major internal restructuring announced in late June. The restructuring, which EF framed as necessary to streamline for future challenges, has drawn criticism for its perceived cold execution. Concurrently, several new independent non-profit organizations have emerged, founded by former EF members. These include Ethlabs, a research and development lab, and Ethereum Institutional, which focuses on promoting institutional adoption of Ethereum. Their rise is seen as both filling roles vacated by EF's downsizing and signaling a fragmentation of the Ethereum ecosystem's leadership. Amidst these changes, EF is also integrating advanced AI tools into its security operations. The security team has begun using AI agents to conduct red-team testing, which has already uncovered vulnerabilities in Ethereum's code. While EF states that AI complements rather than replaces human researchers, this technological shift hints at potential future reductions in human-centric roles within the organization. The article posits that these developments—massive layoffs, the exodus of key personnel like former Executive Director Xiaowei Wang, the rise of rival organizations, and AI integration—collectively point to a decline in EF's central authority. Once the undisputed leader of the Ethereum ecosystem, EF now faces questions about its future role, with speculation that it may evolve into more of a symbolic "ecosystem mascot" rather than a driving force for growth and adoption. This organizational turmoil unfolds against a backdrop of ongoing market pressure and community debate over Ethereum's value proposition.

The Ethereum Foundation Has Perished, Long Live a Plurality of Ethereum Organizations

The Ethereum Foundation (EF) has entered a period of significant upheaval, marked by major organizational restructuring and a shift towards a more decentralized leadership model. The EF's Protocol Support Team has officially disbanded, part of what is described as its largest-ever round of layoffs, cutting 20% of its staff. This follows the high-profile resignation of Executive Director Aya Wang and the departure of at least eight senior figures this year. This internal transformation coincides with the rise of new, independent non-profit organizations like Ethlabs and Ethereum Institutional, founded by former EF researchers. These entities aim to take on roles in research, development, and institutional adoption that were previously associated with the EF, signaling a fragmentation of the ecosystem's central guiding body. Simultaneously, the EF's security team is evolving its approach by deploying specialized AI agents to perform red-team testing on the Ethereum network, a process that has already identified real vulnerabilities. While the EF states AI complements rather than replaces human researchers, this technological shift presents further questions about the foundation's future structure and staffing. Criticism of the EF's centralized decision-making and market influence has been growing within the community. Faced with these internal reforms, external competition, and technological changes, the article suggests the Ethereum Foundation may be transitioning from a central leadership role to a more symbolic, "mascot-like" position within a increasingly diversified and complex ecosystem.
