US Risks Falling Behind in Stablecoin Adoption Amid Global Surge: Chainalysis Report
A #chainalysis report reveals that the United States is losing ground in stablecoin adoption due to regulatory uncertainty, even as demand for US dollar-backed #Stablecoins soars globally. In 2024, stablecoin transactions on US platforms fell below 40%, down from 50% last year, while non-US platforms surpassed 60%, driven by emerging markets like Argentina and Turkey. Tether’s CEO #PaoloArdoino noted that demand is strongest in regions with unstable currencies. With the US lagging on #stablecoin regulations, other regions are attracting stablecoin projects, putting pressure on US policymakers to step up and protect its leadership in digital finance.

🅰️ UPD: Paris Crypto Attacks — #Chainalysis says criminals still think Bitcoin is untraceable
🟠Paris is becoming a crypto warzone this May. First, a €7.8M ransom kidnapping. Then, Paymium CEO’s daughter and grandson fought off armed attackers in broad daylight. And now, Chainalysis CEO Jonathan Levin drops the truth: these gangs are stuck in 2017.
🟠Speaking at Consensus 2025, Levin said it bluntly: crypto ain’t anonymous anymore. But old-school criminals still think they can launder $BTC like cash. Reality? Those onchain breadcrumbs are leading cops straight to their doors — and yes, sometimes even with asset recovery.
🟠Funny? Maybe. Sad? Definitely. Levin warns this “#bitcoin = cash” delusion is why gangs are grabbing guns and going full wrench attack on crypto whales — blind to the fact that blockchain forensics is two steps ahead.
🟠Worse? It’s a global trend now. Levin confirmed it’s not just France. Vegas, Spain, across Europe — same playbook. And while law enforcement is getting sharper, crypto influencers keep flexing Lambos and NFTs like it’s bull run season.
🤑 Bottom line? #blockchain will expose them. But a gun in your face still moves faster. Stop living in 2017. Upgrade your OPSEC. Stop flexing your bags. And accept that in 2025, paranoia is your best wallet.

🔤 Crypto CEO’s Family Fights Off Armed Kidnappers in Paris
🟠The offline violence against #crypto elites is escalating. On May 13, Paymium CEO Pierre Noizat’s daughter and grandson were attacked in broad daylight in #Paris . Three masked men tried to kidnap them — but the daughter didn’t go down easy. She fought back, disarmed one of the attackers, and threw the gun away while passersby jumped in to help.
🟠The attackers fled, leaving behind a van and chaos. All victims were hospitalized, and the case is now under the scrutiny of France’s anti-banditry police unit.
🟠This isn’t an isolated incident. Just this month in Paris, another crypto entrepreneur’s father was freed from kidnappers who demanded €7M ransom. In Las Vegas, teens held a crypto investor at gunpoint for $4M in crypto and #NFTs . The message? Offline crypto crimes are no longer rare — they’re becoming the new norm.
🟠Crypto veterans like Jameson Lopp have long warned about the rise of so-called “wrench attacks.” The scariest part? They’re often underreported. Victims stay silent out of fear or humiliation.
🚨 In this game, OPSEC isn’t optional. Stop flaunting wealth online, rethink your public routines, and remember: in crypto, your physical security is now as important as your private keys.

Chainalysis: Crypto Crime May Hit $4B+ in 2025
Chainalysis' mid-year review shows over $2.17B stolen from centralized platforms and wallets by June 2025. This puts the industry on track to exceed $4B in thefts by year’s end.
Notably, ~$8.5B in stolen funds remain unlaundered—sitting idle in blacklisted wallets, likely waiting for low-liquidity bridges or decentralized mixing. A disturbing new trend: wrench attacks, where physical coercion is used to access private keys, rose 240% YoY, mostly in LATAM and Eastern Europe.
Governments are pushing for mandatory reporting of custodial wallet thefts, while new startups are offering “wallet insurance” with varying levels of coverage.
Reminder: Consider multisig, biometric key backups, and geo-locking for large personal wallets.

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon Calls for Crypto Industry Shutdown. 🪙🤯🤥
During the annual banking oversight hearing, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon expressed his desire to "close down" the entire crypto industry.*
CEOs from major banks, including Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, and BNY Mellon, joined Dimon to discuss the effectiveness of the banking industry in serving Americans.
Senator Elizabeth Warren, a vocal critic of the banking industry, found common ground with Dimon on the topic of cryptocurrencies, citing their use in illicit transactions and funding dangerous criminal activities.
Warren referred to a Chainalysis report estimating over $23 billion in cryptocurrency laundering in 2022, though a mid-year report in July 2023 showed a 65% decrease in illicit crypto activities.
Dimon acknowledged the association of crypto with criminal activities, citing anonymity and instant money transfer as attractive features for criminals.
Despite Dimon's strong stance against crypto, JPMorgan has ventured into the blockchain space with initiatives like the corporate stablecoin, JPM Coin, and the blockchain platform, Onyx.
Warren questioned all witnesses, including Dimon, about the need for crypto companies to adhere to the same anti-money laundering rules as traditional banks.
All eight banking representatives, including Dimon, unanimously agreed that crypto companies facilitating financial transactions should follow anti-money laundering rules.

Asia Emerges as a Hotspot for Violent Crypto Crime: Chainalysis
According to the latest mid-year report from #Chainalysis , Asia is emerging as the epicenter of a wave of cryptocurrency-related crime, with record digital thefts and a troubling rise in violence targeting crypto holders. The Asia-Pacific region now ranks second in Bitcoin theft incidents.
State-sponsored hacks and "keylog attacks"
Asia's crypto crime ecosystem is a complex web where North Korean hackers carry out thefts worth billions of USD, organized crime gangs kidnap executives for ransom, and local financial platforms become unwitting money laundering tools. The Bybit hack of 1.5 billion USD linked to North Korea is the largest crypto theft ever.
The report also points out that "keylog attacks" (physical violence to access crypto assets) are increasing alongside Bitcoin price volatility. The murder of Chinese-Philippine steel tycoon Anson Que, where kidnappers demanded a ransom of 3.5 million USD in crypto, is a prominent example showing the overlap between crypto crime and violence. Nevertheless, Chainalysis emphasizes that the immutability of blockchain can be a powerful tool for seeking justice. #Asia

Crypto Crime Hits New Record: $2.17 B Stolen in H1 2025
🚨 Security Alarm: $2.17 B in Crypto Thefts So Far in 2025 🔓
Crypto crime is reaching record highs. According to Chainalysis, a staggering $2.17 billion has been stolen in the first half of 2025—already surpassing the total for all of 2024.
🔍 Breakdown of the thefts:
$1.5 B stolen in a single North Korea–linked hack on Bybit (the largest hack in crypto history, attributed to Lazarus Group).
A major additional breach at India’s CoinDCX (~$44 M) further fueled the spike.
Personal wallet hacks—including phishing, malware, and “wrench attacks” (physical coercion)—now account for over 23% of total losses.
🌐 Global impact & trends:
Theft volumes this year reached the H1 2025 $2 B mark 72 days faster than in 2022.
Victims span the globe, with hotspots including North America, Europe, Asia, MENA, and CSAO regions.
📈 What’s ahead:
If current trends persist, crypto service thefts could top $4 B by year-end.
✅ What This Means for You:
Security infrastructure is failing at scale—this isn’t just bad luck, it’s a structural threat.
Exchanges & protocols must audit rigorously, strengthen cold storage, and bolster insurance/backstop systems.
Individual holders need to upgrade personal wallet security—use hardware wallets, avoid phishing, and stay physically secure.

Breaking into the Bybit Exchange.
Anyway, Bybit has released a report on what happened with their hack in the first place. Point by point, the picture is as follows:
- First they hacked the comp of one of the developers of #safe (a multisig wallet provider), through which Bybit signed their trances.
- Then Lazarus injected a malicious script directly into one of the files Safe stored on their servers in AWS (specifically S3).
- This script spoofed transactions at the signature stage. That is, you sign one thing, but in fact another thing is already flying out.
- And the code worked only if the transaction went to one of two addresses: the Bybit contract and some murky test address, which, most likely, was controlled by the hackers themselves.
- As soon as the transaction went away, the hackers immediately cleaned up their tracks, deleted the script and uploaded a clean version of the file back.
- As a result of the investigation, it became clear that the Bybit infrastructure itself was not affected, it was Safe that was affected. Safe's contracts were not touched either, the whole attack went through the interface.
Safe from its side gave minimum information, they promised to tell more after the investigation is completed.
#cz_binance also reacted negatively to Safe's report, because nothing is really clear from it.
Anyway, it's another reminder that regular users have nothing to hope for at all except their paranoia hehehe 🥹
#chainalysis btw posted a graph of how Lazarus are trying to launder money. What do you think? Isn't that art? 🥲
