An #ethereum investor lost $1.23M in Uniswap V3 Position NFTs after unknowingly signing a phishing transaction.
...yet another $50 million crypto heist (this time it's #BTCTurk, which as you might guess is a major #crypto exchange in #Turkey)
no confirmation yet but has the vibe of either a north korean operation or an insider taking the money and running.

"Passwort" Folge 38: Schlaue Hacks von schlauen Verträgen

I just signed up! 
Used to Twitter but I wanted to try out Mastodon to see what it's like. I heard people hate cryptocurrency here but I am interested in the technology behind it. 
Follow and chat if you are interested.

@tante "#AI" is such a level of "#WastefulComputing" that it makes #CryptocurrencyMining look like an act of #EnergyConservation and #EnvoirmentalProtection by comparison.
Not that it doesn't make #Shitcoin-#Mining any less unethical and wrong!
"Bitcoin Core development and transaction relay policy"
https://bitcoincore.org/en/2025/06/06/relay-statement/
I don't necessarily disagree, but I feel that this long argument deliberately omits to mention the context which motivated this decision.
Has the #Bitcoin network been experiencing a flood of transactions which (ab)use the blockchain as an immutable storage system for messages and data?
And if so, why wouldn't they rather do it with #Ethereum, which has lower per-byte fees and also lets them run small programs?
I'm finally moving over to Radicle (https://radicle.xyz) instead of switching to another centralized code forge (like GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, etc.). I definitely love the idea behind a #P2P code forge and I'm hopeful for Radicle's future, but I do have some reservations starting off:
1) Despite talking a lot about freedom and privacy in the tutorial, the group building Radicle (https://radworks.org/) is planning to sell hosting and make a profit via an Ethereum-based cryptocurrency (https://www.tally.xyz/gov/radworks) as well as NFTs and smart contracts. Some big Libertarian red flags there.
2) At some point there was a Swiss nonprofit "Radicle Foundation", but this now seems to be a for-profit venture (see https://radicle.xyz/history). I wish it could just be a nonprofit.
3) In the user guide chapter on private repos (https://radicle.xyz/guides/user), it says that I need to use a public DNS address trusted seed node to share the repo. I understand there's no DHT here, but I hope it's not too much of a pain to run this over my local network instead of the internet. (And yeah, I know I can use git locally, I just want to test Radicle locally.)
Overall, I think that if radworks turns out to be evil it will be a way easier transition to fork Radicle than it has been to leave GitHub, but I still wish I didn't have to worry.

Kursrutsch auch bei Kryptowährungen: Bitcoin wieder unter 75.000 US-Dollar
Nach der Ankündigung drastischer US-Zölle hatte es den Anschein, als würden Kryptowährungen ihre Kurse fast halten können. Jetzt geht es aber steil nach unten.
So far, I have been delving into the #Web3 and #crypto debate only superficially, as the very few notions I got led me to abhor any kind of technology related to the #blockchain.
Since I started my new job at @dweb, though, I am finding myself revisiting my position by deepening my knowledge on the topic. I am mostly drawing the same conclusions—crypto is terrible—yet I am glad I am learning more also on what I am very critical about.
I am particularly thankful to @mai for writing this article, which I believe is a great starting point to develop an informed opinion.
Above all, as mai points out, nothing is all-bad, and there are for sure ideas and practices that can be learned (as cautionary tales in the worst case scenarios) even from problematic technologies, communities, and/or founders.
#FundingTheCommons is happening this weekend!
Join us at the @internetarchive in San Francisco to discuss about new models and mechanisms for commons+public goods funding.

Größter Diebstahl der Geschichte: Bybit nutzte Freeware und wurde dadurch Opfer
Eine unsichere Freeware ermöglichte den Angreifern den Milliarden-Diebstahl bei Bybit. Die Probleme waren schon lang bekannt.
Größter Diebstahl der Geschichte: Großteil der Beute in Bitcoin umgetauscht
Anderthalb Wochen, nachdem 1,4 Milliarden US-Dollar in Kryptogeld bei Bybit gestohlen wurden, wurde die Beute fast komplett in Bitcoin umgetauscht.
