Trump: Will not attack Iran ahead of midterm elections, US and Iran are holding productive discussions.

Coinbase Institutional issued a report noting that ETH rallied 71% in the third quarter, yet on-chain metrics show no clear signs of overheating in its price action. Data indicates the share of ETH supply in profit has exited the accumulation range, but remains well below the warning threshold, signaling the current market has not reached the overextended levels flagged by historical metrics.

According to Onchain Lens monitoring, the suspected hackers linked to the recent crypto heist involving Ledger reseller CryptoBillis — with the stolen amount reportedly nearly $90 million — have transferred 430.2 ETH, valued at around $1.07 million, to Tornado Cash via four wallets. After Tether froze some of the related funds, the suspects reportedly began converting USDT to USDD via SUN.io and USDD’s Peg Stability Module (PSM), while another portion of the funds flowed into Binance’s hot wallet. The suspected wallets flagged by Onchain Lens currently hold approximately $70.6 million in assets, including 11,406 ETH (worth ~$28.35 million), 213.371 BTC (~$17.65 million), 13.646 million USDD (~$13.65 million), and 10.909 million USDT (~$10.91 million). As on-chain funds continue to move, the above tracking data and suspect associations remain to be further verified.

Former Mt. Gox CEO Mark Karpelès revealed in a post that a Ledger hardware wallet he received is suspected to have an implanted spy module. The device originated from Malaysia; its outer packaging’s heat-shrink film was intact, and anomalies were not immediately noticeable upon opening. The implant was hidden in the position of the screen’s original buffer pad. Karpelès further detailed that the module contains LTE communication components, an antenna, eSIM, and a microcontroller connected to Ledger’s SPI bus. It can analyze characters displayed on the device to users and exfiltrate relevant data after the mnemonic phrase is configured. Attackers may subsequently monitor the victim’s wallet address and transfer assets at an opportune moment. He urged users to inspect their devices in accordance with Ledger’s official guidance.

According to HTX market data, MAGIC has surged over 60% in the past 24 hours, currently trading at $0.0992, with its market cap rising to $33 million.

According to Lookonchain’s monitoring, a user purchased 80 BTC for approximately $65,000 around four months ago, with a total investment of about $5.2 million. The user once recorded an unrealized profit of roughly $1.38 million. However, the user bought a Ledger hardware wallet from third-party dealer CryptoBillis a week ago and transferred all 80 BTC into it, only to have the entire funds stolen now. This incident is linked to recent fund thefts involving multiple CryptoBillis clients, though whether the devices were tampered with, the specific attack method, and the attacker’s identity remain unconfirmed.

Poor guy! 4 months ago, he bought 80 $BTC ($5.2M) at a low price of ~$65,000 and was sitting on a $1.38M profit. But a week ago, he bought a Ledger device from reseller CryptoBillis and deposited all 80 $BTC into it. Now he's lost everything.
