  • Wallet tied to Coinbase phishing campaigns launders funds, taunts ZachXBT after $42.5M Thorchain swap A wallet labeled “Fake_Phishing1158790” on Etherscan swapped $42.5 million worth of bitcoin for ether using the decentralized liquidity protocol Thorchain, in what may be an attempt to launder stolen funds. In a taunting twist, the wallet also sent an onchain message to blockchain investigator ZachXBT, reading simply: “L bozo.” The text included a YouTube link to a clip of NBA Hall of Famer James Worthy, likely to mock the onchain sleuth. ZachXBT has linked the wallet’s owner to large-scale phishing campaigns targeting Coinbase users. In a March Telegram post, he claimed the group stole over $65 million between December 2024 and January 2025 by posing as customer support agents — part of an estimated $300 million annual theft from Coinbase customers. This week, Coinbase disclosed that nearly 70,000 users were affected by a data breach from last December. A U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing said some former employees abused internal privileges and exposed customer information to scammers for cash bribes. Passwords and wallet keys were not leaked in the incident, but the threat actors received sensitive KYC details, Coinbase wrote. People who claimed to control the stolen data threatened to publish the files online and demanded a $20 million ransom. Coinbase denied the request and put out a $20 million bounty to track the culprits. The crypto exchange has not confirmed whether the breach is connected to the phishing scheme outlined by ZachXBT. However, Coinbase expects it could spend between $180 million and $400 million on remediation and reimbursements related to the breach.
  • SEC delays decisions on XRP and Dogecoin ETF proposals, asks for public input The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pushed back deadlines for a few proposals on whether to approve exchange-traded funds tracking XRP and Dogecoin. The SEC asked for public comments for the 21Shares Core XRP Trust, the Grayscale XRP Trust, and the Grayscale Dogecoin Trust, according to filings posted on Tuesday. "Institution of proceedings is appropriate at this time in view of the legal and policy issues raised by the proposed rule change," the SEC said in one of the filings. "Institution of proceedings does not indicate that the Commission has reached any conclusions with respect to any of the issues involved. Rather, the Commission seeks and encourages interested persons to provide comments on the proposed rule change." The SEC also pushed back making a decision on whether to approve a proposal to allow Bitwise's Ethereum ETF to permit staking, according to a filing on Tuesday. The SEC has delayed and asked for comments for several crypto ETF proposals over the last few months as it weighs dozens of proposals. The agency under the Trump administration has taken a different approach to digital assets. During the Biden administration and following a pivotal court ruling, the SEC approved the listing and trading of spot bitcoin ETFs and later spot Ethereum ETFs. Since President Donald Trump took office in January, the SEC has dropped several lawsuits against crypto firms and has held public crypto roundtables to discuss how to regulate the industry. SEC delays on spot crypto ETFs are to be expected, said Bloomberg Intelligence ETF analyst James Seyffart on Tuesday in a post on X. "If we're gonna see early approvals from the SEC on any of these assets -- i wouldn't expect to see them until late June or early July at absolute earliest. More likely to be in early 4Q," Seyffart said. Seyffart also noted that no matter who is in charge at the SEC, the agency usually takes the full time allotted to respond. "Almost all of these filings have final due dates in October. Early decisions would the action that's out of the norm. No matter how 'Crypto-friendly; this SEC is," Seyffart said in a post on X.
  • Solana Labs spinout Anza proposes Alpenglow, 'the biggest change to Solana’s core protocol' Anza, the developer studio spun out of Solana Labs, has unveiled what it calls “the biggest change to Solana’s core protocol” ever. According to an announcement, the high-throughput Layer 1 is getting a completely redesigned undercarriage called Alpenglow. “We believe that the release of Alpenglow will be a turning point for Solana. Alpenglow is not only a new consensus protocol, but the biggest change to Solana’s core protocol since, well, ever,” Anza’s Quentin Kniep, Kobi Sliwinski, and Roger Wattenhofer wrote in a white paper published on Monday. The upgrade replaces Solana’s existing TowerBFT proof-of-stake consensus mechanism and proof-of-history timestamping system with new components called Votor and Rotor. Votor — short for “Voting Component” — will handle consensus logic and replace TowerBFT. Rather than relying on the current node “gossip” model, it will run a “faster direct communication primitive” to vote on block finalization. Nodes vote to either notarize a block or skip it if it arrives late or is deemed untrustworthy. A block can be notarized in one round if 80% of stake approve it, or in two rounds if 60% approve, using parallel voting tracks for faster and more scalable processing. Anza claims this could bring block processing times down to 100–150 milliseconds. "I got nearly everything wrong about consensus, except the important parts: it can’t be in the way of block producers utilizing 100% of the bandwidth 100% of the time. users need some deterministic finality in one round (2-delta)," Solana founder Anatoly Yakovenko wrote on X. "Alpenglow nails both of these requirements with a simple and elegant design that’s really easy to intuit." Rotor, the second component, refines Solana’s existing block propagation protocol. It builds on Turbine — the current system that shreds blocks into smaller pieces and distributes them across the network — by using a single layer of relay nodes and optimizing bandwidth usage based on stake. Like Turbine, Rotor uses "erasure-coding" to ensure the block can be reconstructed from a subset of these shreds. Anza is also the team maintaining Solana’s Agave client, the network's original validator software.
  • Vitalik Buterin suggests implementing ‘partially stateless nodes’ to help scale Ethereum Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin proposed a new roadmap on Monday to solve issues linked with scaling Ethereum Layer-1 through higher gas limits, including a new concept called "partially stateless nodes." "The most common criticism of increasing the L1 gas limit, beyond concerns about network safety, is that it makes it harder to run a full node," Buterin wrote in his recent post. Running a full node is valuable as it offers a "trustless, censorship-resistant and privacy-friendly way" for users in accessing the chain, the Ethereum co-founder added. To scale the L1 gas limit without sacrificing running full nodes, Buterin proposed short-term priorities, which include implementing EIP-4444 that limits nodes to contain only up to 36 days of historical data, reducing disk space for other participants. Running a full Ethereum node requires storing the entire blockchain state (~1TB for state, ~500GB for history). EIP-4444 would offload historical data storage, making nodes lighter. Other short-term proposals by Buterin were building a distributed history data storage solution and adjusting gas pricing to make storage more expensive and execution less expensive. Buterin's roadmap highlighted "stateless verification" as a medium-term change, which could allow nodes to interact with the blockchain without maintaining Merkle branches, which are used to verify data integrity. This could cut storage needs by roughly 50%, making nodes significantly lighter, Buterin said. In his latest proposal, the Ethereum co-founder unveiled a new concept called "partially stateless nodes." Buterin said these have the potential to increase the L1 gas limit by 10 to 100 times. According to Buterin, these nodes verify blocks and the entire chain without storing all the data by utilizing stateless verification or zkEVM. They will be programmed to store a selected subset of data instead of a full set, and are still able to perform requests pertaining to data in the selected portion.
  • Hong Kong police arrest 12 suspected of laundering $15 million through crypto exchange shops Hong Kong police said a raid targeting a cross-border money laundering syndicated culminated in 12 arrests, dismantling a ring responsible for laundering HK$118 million ($15 million USD) through banks and crypto exchange shops. The police's commercial crime bureau arrested two local key members of the syndicate and ten mainland Chinese operatives, nine men and three women between the ages of 20 and 42, the police told local media. The local operatives had recruited the mainland citizens to open shell accounts in both traditional and digital banks in Hong Kong. "These people were also arranged to use other bank cards to withdraw cash and then transport the funds to some virtual asset exchange stores to convert them into cryptocurrency as a means of laundering money," police superintendent Shirley Kwok Ching-yee said. As many as 500 stooge accounts were set up. A portion of the funds, around $1.3 million, was linked to the proceeds of 58 scam operations. Hong Kong has seen a nearly 12% year-over-year increase in fraud cases, the police said, with more than 10,000 people arrested in connection to fraud operations. Hong Kong, which is seeking to accelerate digital asset development, is also cracking down harder on money laundering and fraud, the police said
  • Binance, Kraken successfully thwart phishing attacks similar to Coinbase hack: Bloomberg Crypto exchanges Binance and Kraken were also reportedly targeted in the same style of phishing attacks that Coinbase disclosed on Thursday, according to a Bloomberg report. Neither Binance nor Kraken reported any loss of customer data, with internal safeguards helping thwart the attempts, the report said. On Thursday, Coinbase disclosed in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing that cybercriminals had bribed offshore customer service representatives to gain access to user data and account management records. The security incident is estimated to cost Coinbase as much as $400 million in remediation expenses and voluntary customer reimbursements. The exchange also offered a $20 million bounty for information leading to the conviction of the blackmailers. It is unclear if the same scammers who struck Coinbase were the ones who attempted to bribe Binance and Kraken’s customer service agents. Bloomberg reported that the attackers attempted to lure the exchanges’ representatives on Telegram, requesting sensitive customer data like account balances and home addresses. Both exchanges’ AI security systems identified the attack vector and blocked the phishing attempts. Coinbase noted that customer passwords, private keys, and funds were not directly exposed.
  • Cobie joins crypto investment firm Paradigm as advisor Jordan Fish, the popular crypto trader better known as Cobie, has joined crypto investment firm Paradigm as an advisor. "He’s always been one of my favorite people in crypto to chat with, so excited to make it official," Paradigm cofounder Matt Huang said Friday in a post on X. "Someday we can convince him to restart UpOnly." Cobie is the founder of Echo, a platform that allows retail investors and crypto community members access to early-stage funding rounds on similar terms to those offered to venture capitalists. It has been used for raises for projects such as MegaETH, Initia, Ethena, and Fogo, The Block previously reported. "We just want to make stuff so that people can fund decentralised projects without selling most of it to one or two entities," Cobie told The Block in February. "Fundraising happens at various stages of a projects lifecycle and we currently only cover the really early stages. There isn’t [in my opinion] a very good way to do a launch sale today." Onchain sleuth ZachXBT joined the firm in February as an incident response advisor. White hat crypto hacker "samczsun" previously joined Paradigm Fund in 2020 as a research partner. "About ten seconds ago, @paradigm have opened an Echo group, which I am pretty pleased about, and I have simultaneously agreed to advise Paradigm -- mostly helping with their public market/liquid fund," Cobie said Friday in a post on X. "I didn't even know Paradigm had a public market fund until yesterday. Will spend some time figuring out which coin I should try to make Matt topblast first." The research-driven Paradigm recently led a $50 million Series A round for decentralized AI project Nous Research.
  • Ethereum stablecoin volume hits record $908 billion as institutions, tech giants, and Trump jump in Ethereum filtered onchain volume of stablecoins reached a new all-time high in April, hitting $908 billion. This milestone comes amid growing institutional adoption and several high-profile developments that have thrust stablecoins into the spotlight once more. USDC has shown particularly strong growth on Ethereum, with volume trending upward over the past six months and exceeding $500 billion in transactions. Other stablecoins gaining significant volume include DAI and Sky's USDS, reflecting a diversifying stablecoin landscape. Traditional companies continue to embrace stablecoins at an accelerating pace. During the week of May 4, Meta announced plans to explore stablecoin integrations to reduce transaction costs, while Stripe unveiled new stablecoin offerings to enhance its payment infrastructure. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump's World Liberty Financial project has seen its stablecoin, USD1, mint nearly $2 billion worth of tokens. This rapid growth has positioned USD1 as the seventh-largest stablecoin by market capitalization despite its relative newness. Fortune 100 companies are increasingly exploring stablecoins for cross-border payments and other product offerings, lending additional legitimacy to the sector. As more companies aim to issue their own stablecoins or adopt existing ones, competition for volume is likely to intensify. This competitive landscape could lead to decreased fees as issuers vie for market share, potentially benefiting end users while challenging profitability for stablecoin providers. The surge in stablecoin activity on Ethereum underscores the network's continued dominance as the preferred blockchain for dollar-denominated digital assets, despite challenges from alternative chains and Layer 2 solutions. While other chains have seen stablecoin usage grow, Ethereum remains the preferred venue for transacting stables. This is an excerpt from The Block's Data & Insights newsletter. Dig into the numbers making up the industry's most thought-provoking trends.
  • MetaMask co-founder Dan Finlay says token is still a 'maybe' MetaMask co-founder Dan Finlay said the most popular Ethereum wallet is still considering a token launch. “Maybe,” Finlay said with a smirk when asked about the possibility of creating a native MetaMask token in an interview (about 42:00 minutes in) on The Block’s “Crypto Beat” podcast. “If we ever do it, it'll be advertised directly in the wallet. You'll be able to find a link directly in the wallet,” Finlay told the head of growth (HOG) at The Block, Tim Copeland, on Wednesday. While there doesn’t appear to be any concrete plans for a MetaMask token, Finlay noted that the changing regulatory regime, under a more permissive Trump administration, “there is safety for far more kinds of token launches.” “Hopefully people take this opportunity to push the boundaries and establish precedence for things that we can all be doing,” Finlay added. “Maybe that will unlock the next fun season.” MetaMask discussed plans to launch a token, tentatively named MASK, going back to at least 2021. During a developer community call, for instance, MetaMask engineer Erik Marks floated the idea of community ownership of the wallet through a token launch, which was bolstered by ConsenSys CEO Joseph Lubin tweeting a “Wen $MASK?” teaser later that year. In 2022, Lubin further explained MetaMask’s intent to launch a token and DAO as part of a plan to drive “progressive decentralization” of Consensys verticals. The DAO was described as a funding mechanism, not a governance body, and the token was explicitly not intended as a “cash grab,” including measures to prevent exploitation by airdrop farmers. “My understanding is that securities law is still securities law,” Finlay said, referring to the idea promulgated by former Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler that most token launches resembled securities offerings. He added that many projects could still be operating in “gray waters” despite recent regulatory advancements. Finlay, like many responsible crypto brands, appears to be particularly concerned about the possibility of scammers scamming a potential MASK token. “Speculation is almost the worst part of it because it gives fishers an opportunity to prey on users,” Finlay said. “You will not have to find some account on social media that you've never heard of giving you a link. It won't be a text message. We don't have your phone number. It won't be an email. We don't have your email address. It will be in the wallet. It'll be on our main website.” MetaMask is the largest crypto wallet, with an estimated 30 million monthly active users as of 2024. The project, under the umbrella of the Ethereum development company Consensys, employs approximately 500 workers, according to Finlay. Over the past year, MetaMask has been rolling out several UX improvements in an attempt to keep up with increasing competition from the likes of Rainbow and Rabby, Finlay said. “We’re competing in a permissionless space,” he said, noting the team realized “there would be very rapid, hot competition.”
