CEO Yi He confirmed that her WeChat account was hacked and used to promote a fake meme coin called $Mubarakah on the BNB Chain. Hackers leveraged her profile to buy the token with 19,479 USDT, inflate the price, and then cash out part of their position.
The scam earned the attackers an estimated 55,000 USDT while they continued holding additional tokens. Yi He later explained that the breach happened after scammers impersonated her contacts to trigger a password reset, highlighting how easily social engineering can compromise Web2 accounts.
CZ reacted by calling attention to the weak security design of platforms like WeChat, noting this follows a similar incident involving Justin Sun last month. The event has intensified concerns about influencer-targeted hacks and the broader security gap between Web2 platforms and the crypto industry.

2 CASASCIUS COINS CONTAINING 1,000 BTC EACH WAKE UP AFTER 13 YEARS
Two Casascius physical coins, each loaded with 1,000 BTC, have just been redeemed after lying dormant for 13 years — total value roughly $180 million USD.
Casascius coins are physical Bitcoins created in 2011 that contain the private key under a tamper-evident hologram sticker. They were banned from sale by FinCEN (U.S.) in 2013, instantly turning the remaining unsold coins into ultra-rare collectibles.
Redeeming them doesn’t necessarily mean the owner sold — they may have simply moved the BTC to a more secure wallet because the hologram or paper backup was starting to degrade over time.
There have been several previous cases where people peeled 100 BTC Casascius coins that were worth a few hundred dollars when bought and are now worth millions.

Binance has introduced Binance Junior, a parent controlled crypto app designed to help families learn about digital assets together. The platform supports sub accounts for children aged 6 to 17, allowing parents to create and monitor a crypto savings account under strict oversight. The goal is to foster safe and responsible crypto education in a shared family environment while keeping full control in the hands of parents.
Binance Junior features a restricted Minor Mode that prevents access to trading while allowing young users to view their balance, savings progress, and basic send or receive functions. Parents can transfer crypto to their children, set saving goals, track transaction activity, and manage all permissions from their dashboard. This structure encourages discussions about financial responsibility, saving habits, and long term planning.
Setting up the app is simple, requiring parents to activate Binance Junior through the main Binance app, complete a registration form, and link the child’s device via QR code. By creating a secure learning space, Binance aims to promote financial literacy and introduce digital asset concepts in a supportive and age appropriate manner, helping families build stronger financial awareness for the future.#BinanceJunior $BNB
The government of Pakistan has introduced strict new rules for crypto transfers. Under the new Virtual Asset Service Provider Governance & Operations Regulations 2025, every virtual asset transfer above Rs. 1 million will now require detailed verification. Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) must collect, verify, and store information about both the originator and the beneficiary. They must also share this information with authorities whenever required.
This move shows that the government wants stronger control over large crypto transactions. It also aims to bring Pakistan in line with global anti-money laundering and counter-terror financing standards. The regulations make full compliance with the FATF Travel Rule mandatory. This rule ensures transparency in digital asset transfers across borders.
