the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia, in coordination with the U.S. Secret Service's Washington Field Office, announced that investigations into multiple international cyber fraud cases have led to the seizure of over $25 million in cryptocurrency. The funds were allegedly linked to crypto investment scams targeting residents of the United States and Canada.This action is part of the "Scam Center Strike Force," an initiative launched in 2025 by District of Columbia Attorney Jeanine Ferris Pirro. To date, the task force has recovered assets totaling over $800 million. U.S. prosecutors stated that on July 21, 2026, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia filed five civil forfeiture complaints in the U.S. District Court, seeking the forfeiture of over $25 million in crypto assets recovered from various fraud investigations.Investigators indicated that these cases involve multiple money laundering networks with victims worldwide. Criminal groups lured victims into investing through fake crypto investment platforms and online romance scams, then laundered the funds through multi-layered wallet addresses and mixing operations to conceal the source of funds. The seized funds are associated with five major investigations:In one case, Canadian law enforcement provided the U.S. Secret Service with wallet addresses suspected of being used to transfer illicit proceeds. Investigators froze the relevant addresses and traced over 270 suspected victim transactions, involving approximately $10.4 million;The second case involved an online romance scam that defrauded over 200 victims. Illicit funds were transferred through hundreds of intermediate wallet addresses and commingled with funds from other victims, involving approximately $12.08 million;The third case involved a victim from the U.S. capital region who participated in a fraudulent crypto investment project. After failing to withdraw funds, the victim lost contact with the scammers, with the involved amount being approximately $1.23 million;In the fourth case, a victim transferred millions of dollars in cryptocurrency to a fake investment account. Investigators traced some of the funds to six wallet addresses and froze approximately $2.39 million;In the fifth case, scammers impersonated an agency that "recovers stolen funds" to trick victims into paying fees, with the involved amount being approximately $285,000.The U.S. Secret Service stated that these cases remain under active investigation. Law enforcement officials are tracking down the suspects behind the fraud network and will cooperate with international law enforcement agencies to hold them accountable.
Odaily News Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas posted on X platform, stating that after some consideration, he believes Warren Buffett and others could or should choose Trump Accounts as the destination for stock donations. He stated that this move could achieve multiple goals simultaneously: First, immediately narrowing the wealth gap, especially when targeting low-income zip code areas like Dell, as these people's wealth comes almost entirely from stocks; Second, improving financial literacy, as donating stocks would encourage people to learn about markets and investing; Third, curbing the rise of "redistribution" economic policies and politicians; Fourth, expanding influence, especially if the 95-year-old Buffett gifts Berkshire stock to children, they would grow up to become Berkshire investors; Fifth, avoiding mismanagement, fees, and capital gains taxes—donations would go 100% directly to the target recipients without incurring capital gains taxes.

Coinbase has released a post-mortem report on the service outage that occurred on July 14, stating the incident was caused by a misconfiguration of a critical network component triggered by a routine configuration update. The impact lasted approximately 50 minutes, and user funds remained safe throughout the period.Coinbase stated that at 12:34 Beijing time (12:34 AM Eastern Time) on July 14, the company deployed a routine configuration change to a shared production Kubernetes cluster hosting core infrastructure services. The update was originally intended to migrate to a new service deployment model to enhance system performance and reliability.However, due to a resource name conflict that was not detected by the pre-production environment's detection mechanisms, this configuration modification unexpectedly affected the Istio Ingress Gateway-related Kubernetes resources within the cluster, rendering the network component unavailable. Approximately 3 minutes later, all inbound traffic to the cluster was interrupted, preventing internal services from accessing several infrastructure components.Coinbase noted that because numerous asynchronous workflows rely on these infrastructure services, including processes such as transaction settlement, fund transfers, and debit card transaction authorizations, multiple business lines were affected. The impacted services included:Retail users were unable to complete off-chain transactions, deposits, and withdrawals; some pending transactions appeared stuck and were completed after the service was restored;Coinbase Card debit card transactions temporarily failed, credit card payments were unaffected, but some card management functions were unavailable;Coinbase DEX's on-chain swap services on Base and Solana were suspended;Coinbase Exchange and Prime institutional customers experienced failed or delayed transfers and settlements;Coinbase Developer Platform customers were unable to complete account creation, fund transfers, or deposit services.Coinbase stated that the ingress gateway was restored at 13:20 Eastern Time, and the incident was mitigated by 13:23. Subsequently, the system began processing the backlog of tasks, with most services returning to normal quickly; the remaining queues were processed over the following hours. During the recovery process, Coinbase encountered two additional challenges. First, the deployment tools themselves relied on the affected ingress gateway to operate, preventing the standard rollback process from being executed, creating a circular dependency where the "fault impacted the remediation tools." Second, while the emergency break-glass access process was effective, the permission verification and manual review procedures increased the recovery time.Coinbase stated that there was no risk to asset security in this incident, but it exposed areas requiring continuous optimization in automated deployment, system dependencies, and disaster recovery mechanisms for large-scale finan

According to Odaily, blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps has disclosed that a mysterious whale address cluster within the Shiba Inu (SHIB) ecosystem has held approximately 103 trillion SHIB since 2020. The entity initially spent just 38 ETH (roughly $10,000 at the time) to build the position, which once peaked at an unrealized valuation exceeding $50 billion, marking one of the most astonishing investment cases in crypto market history.Bubblemaps' tracking reveals that the whale initially purchased 103 trillion SHIB through the wallet address 0x1406, accounting for about 10% of the circulating supply at the time. As the SHIB price surged, the position's value once reached approximately $5 billion. Currently, the address cluster's holdings are still valued at over $2.5 billion, representing a cumulative return of more than 21,000 times.To reduce exposure risk, the whale split the assets across 14 addresses in November 2021. In January 2023, Bubblemaps first disclosed this SHIB whale cluster, which then controlled about 10% of the SHIB supply, valued at over $1 billion, sparking community discussions about high concentration of holdings by a single entity.Subsequently, the address cluster underwent continuous address migration and splitting. In September 2023, Bubblemaps found that its holdings had spread from a few prominent wallets to many new addresses, a typical tactic to reduce on-chain visibility. Using its Magic Nodes tool, Bubblemaps was still able to identify the connections between these wallets.During the SHIB price surge in early 2024, the whale's position value exceeded $2 billion again, with the number of wallets expanding to over 170 addresses. As of now, the cluster still controls approximately 8.51% of the SHIB circulating supply, a decrease from the initial 10% ratio. However, Bubblemaps notes that this is primarily due to normal on-chain transfers, with no signs of large-scale selling detected.Bubblemaps points out that this case highlights the significant value of on-chain transparency tools: an entity can conceal massive holdings by splitting wallets, but all fund transfers leave public on-chain records. This SHIB whale case has also become a typical example for observing "whale behavior, holding concentration, and on-chain tracking" within the crypto market.

10x Research posted on X platform, stating that data shows Bitcoin's implied volatility (IV) dropped to a local low of 33% on July 15, and has now ended its consecutive decline, slightly recovering to 35%. This is a significant drop compared to the high of approximately 55% seen in February of this year. Although the recent rebound in implied volatility is limited, it has already caught the attention of options traders. This rebound in the indicator may suggest upcoming market turbulence, but it remains to be confirmed whether the market is bottoming out for a rebound or merely pausing temporarily before a further decline.
Odaily Odaily reports, according to the official announcement, Bitget's spot copy trading module now supports trading of US stock tokens rToken. Traders can trade US stock rTokens (such as rTSLA, rNVDA, etc.) in the copy trading zone, while copy traders can automatically follow the traders' open position signals. The operational logic for related opening and closing positions, order records, and profit-sharing mechanisms remains consistent with existing crypto spot copy trading. Meanwhile, US stock rTokens adopt a new candlestick chart that supports adjusted price settings, eliminating the impact of events such as stock splits on historical price trends.When a related rToken undergoes a stock split, reverse stock split, or dividend event, new copy buy orders for the corresponding trading pair will be temporarily suspended, though selling will not be affected. During this period, the system will take profit/loss snapshots and settle profit-sharing for existing positions, and will uniformly transfer the relevant rToken assets along with any cash or stock dividends to the user's main account. Once the event processing is completed, the trading pair will resume normal copy trading. Users can upgrade their App to version v2.89.0 to experience this feature.
the whale "Set 10 Big Goals First" posted on X platform, stating that in the previous round, they built a position with 150 BTC, targeting $150 million, and at peak realized a profit of $120 million. However, they misjudged the trend during a $120,000 decline, wiping out all profits, and ultimately only preserved their principal with a slight gain. In this round, they built a position with 300 BTC, targeting $300 million, and have already realized a profit of $60 million.They subsequently added that rules are continuously being established and habits formed. Learning from the lesson of having all previous round's profits erased, they have strictly adopted habits of risk control discipline, accepting the possibility of missing opportunities or making wrong judgments, but refusing any probability of being completely wiped out.

: Citrini analyst jukan posted on platform X, stating that TrendForce expects the NAND flash supply shortage to ease in 2027. TrendForce pointed out that servers already account for over 40% of total NAND flash bit demand, while smartphones and laptops together still account for nearly 40%, thus continuing to have a significant impact on overall demand. Regarding inventory, storage manufacturers' inventory levels remain relatively low. Although module factory inventories have increased somewhat due to weak consumer market conditions, inventories held by other buyers remain at manageable levels.Considering these factors, TrendForce expects the NAND flash bit supply-demand gap to remain between -4% and -5% in 2026, indicating that the shortage will persist. However, the gap is expected to turn positive in the second half of 2027, alleviating supply tightness.
