Department of Homeland Security investigators say they’ve thwarted hundreds of ransomware cyberattacks before they occurred and have seized billions of extorted crypto since 2021.
United States government agencies were the top targets, accounting for 21% of the disrupted hacks, more than any business sector, Mike Prado, the deputy assistant director of Homeland Security Investigations (HIS) Cyber Crimes Center, told Bloomberg in an Oct. 4 report.
The division has disrupted 537 ransomware attacks since it was formed in 2021 and has traced and seized $4.3 billion worth of crypto on exchanges and hackers’ devices, which was stolen through extortion payments.

Coinlist CEO: “Here’s how you launch a hyped, legit token (sorry EigenLayer missed this window, but everyone else can learn):
1. The community needs to feel like they’re insiders. Do an aggressive inside sale for the best community members at an aggressive discount to last round. I’m talking 70%+. Choose 500-2000 people for this. Give them meaningful stakes. I’d even do a custom NFT for this group (h/t patron sales).
2. For everyone else, give them a fair pre launch price for the community round. At least last round.
3. Be transparent and don’t engage in shenanigans. Were there secondaries? Can locked vesters stake? Is there a strange MM deal everyone should know about? Did you give Binance 20% of network supply? People should know.
4. Speaking of vesting, I’m conflicted. I don’t believe in 100% unlocks on day 1, as the team should absolutely continue vesting. And the data shows that sale participants / community should vest. But should investors and partners? Likely no. Low float high fdv is broken, go to market with a higher float or your four year chart doesn’t stand a chance.
5. Really there’s so much more to say on this. You can use CoinList to do all of the above and come chat with us. We don’t know all of the answers, but we’re (Skeeeeto) learning daily and can figure this out together.”

An upcoming HBO documentary "Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery" aims to reveal the true identity of the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto.
Nakamoto, the famously anonymous inventor of Bitcoin, apparently vanished in December 2010. Estimates are that if Nakamoto is still around, the Bitcoin creator could control as much as 1.1 million bitcoin, currently worth about $67 billion, at least on paper.
The documentary, entitled "Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery" and out next Wednesday, Oct. 9, was created by Cullen Hoback, the director of "Q: Into the Storm," the docu-series that exposed those behind the QAnon conspiracy theory.

Telegram is launching Gifts
Gift recipients can choose to display them on their profiles or sell them for Stars.
Some gifts are in limited supply. Later this year it’ll introduce the ability to convert these limited-edition gifts into TON-based NFTs. Users will then be able to auction and trade these tokenized gifts outside Telegram, with ownership recorded on the blockchain.

EigenLayer: “In an isolated incident this morning, an email thread involving one investor’s transfer of tokens into custody was compromised by a malicious attacker.
As a result, 1,673,645 EIGEN tokens were erroneously transferred to the attacker’s address. The attacker sold these stolen EIGEN tokens via a decentralized swap platform and transferred stablecoins to centralized exchanges. We are in contact with these platforms and law enforcement. A portion of the funds have already been frozen.
The compromise has not impacted the broader ecosystem. There is no known vulnerability in the protocol or token contracts and this compromise was not related to any onchain functionality.
We continue to investigate the situation and will be posting further information once we have it.”
