Index

A crypto Index provides a way for investors to gain diversified exposure to a specific basket of digital assets through a single tokenized product. These indices often track specific sectors, such as DeFi, DePIN, or RWA, and are automatically rebalanced via smart contracts. In 2026, AI-managed thematic indices have become the gold standard for passive investing, allowing users to track the "blue chips" of the Web3 economy without manual portfolio management. This tag covers index methodology, rebalancing frequency, and the benefits of diversified crypto baskets.

Israel Seizes Cryptocurrency Wallets Linked to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps! Here Are the Details

Israel Seizes Cryptocurrency Wallets Linked to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps! Here Are the Details

The post Israel Seizes Cryptocurrency Wallets Linked to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps! Here Are the Details appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Israeli government has issued a new administrative seizure order (ASO-43/25) under Anti-Terror Law 5776-2016. According to the order, certain cryptocurrency wallets identified as belonging to or used on behalf of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps are considered terrorist offenses. Israel Decision to Seize Crypto Assets Israel seized 187 crypto wallets worth $1.5 billion from the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. The decision, approved by the Interior and Security authorities, stated that the crypto wallets were “property of a designated terrorist organization” or “tools used in the perpetration of serious terrorist crimes.” In this context, the Israeli government announced that all values found in the wallets specified in the list or other virtual assets identified later will be confiscated. The document also emphasized that individuals or institutions working in the relevant business lines are obligated to comply with this decision. Citing Article 66 of the law, it stated that anyone who obstructs the seizure process or acts contrary to the decision will bear legal liability. This move by Israel draws attention amid growing concerns about the recent use of crypto assets for terrorist financing. Sanctions targeting Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps financial networks, in particular, appear to be expanding to include digital assets. The decision is considered a new move within the framework of Israel’s financial security policies that is expected to resonate in the international arena. *This is not investment advice.

Violent Attack Vectors in Web3: A Detailed Review

Violent Attack Vectors in Web3: A Detailed Review

Web3Violent Attack Vectors in Web3: A Detailed Review Operational security professionals work to figure out where their information can be breached. Looking at operations from a malicious third-party’s perspective allows us to spot vulnerabilities we may have otherwise missed so that we can implement proper countermeasures. If funds stolen/blocked on CEX, contact my lawyer rata0x Best service for on-chain investigations: legalblock.com Operational security professionals work to figure out where their information can be breached. The most important thing to understand here is the path of the cyber attack — its vector. Let’s take a closer look. Example №1 — Social Engineering Let’s take a hypothetical situation in which your computer gets infected with a Remote Access Trojan (RAT) virus. One of two things may happen. If the attack was carried out by a rookie hacker (i.e a lamer) then he likely orchestrated a wide massive attack without a target in mind. He can steal some information on you like your browser cookies and then sell it. The second option is that this was a direct attack. The hackers made a phishing page on your router, through which you could enter your password (poisoning the DNS server). To prevent this type of attack, you ideally need to separate your machines and networks. You should also check certificates.researchgate.net/publication/339224082_A_Taxonomy_of_Social_Engineering_Defense_Mechanisms Here is an example of a very dangerous cyber attack on your crypto wallet: Your computer gets infected by malware with a crypto clipper. Let us say you want to send money from your crypto account to your friend. When you attempt to copy and paste your friend’s crypto, ETH, or BTC address, the clipper will substitute your friend’s address with a generated one that looks a lot like your friend’s (starts and ends with the same characters). Thus, instead of sending crypto to your friend’s account you actually direct the money directly into the hacker’s account. www.chainalysis.com/blog/address-poisoning-scam Consider checking the entire address of your addressee’s wallet before you click Send! In short, crypto clipper, address poisoning and «zero-transfer/approve transaction» attacks are just vanity-generated address attack variations! For example, that’s how scammers are using vanity-gen to generate an address similar to the victim’s ones (first 4 and last 5 digits are similar) in a address poisoning attack. This is common at ETH, BSC, even BTC! Examples of address poisoning on Bitcoin: github.com/AngelTs/vanitygen-plusplus-ported-for-VS2019 bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5076779.0 Bitcoin clipper examples: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32614037 arxiv.org/pdf/2108.14004.pdf Questions began to be raised over the discovery of mysterious outgoing zero transactions with supposed approve signatures… Check out this example, seen both at Tron and Ethereum Main-net: Another example (Tron): etherscan.io/tx/0x76aca85852108175a6411331de8bcd7007a849857180c533e16b733911980a64 The transferFrom function was called, not transfer, which means that the Fromaddress was supposed to give that address who signed the transaction, but since the sum is zero and all new contract memory cells are initialized with zeros, everything runs smoothly (since there is a 0 for any address) (deepl.com) 🤔 TLDR: You must just ignore these transactions! Example №2 — The Troll and the Knight Let us take Jane who is a diligent employee at her company. Information about Jane is publicly available on her social networks. Some sensitive information about her might have even been revealed in some leaks, such as the 2014 Yahoo Mail user account information breach. Generally, she is no different from you or us. So far, so good. github.com/frostbits-security/MITM-cheatsheet But then, a troll shows up and starts stalking her around social networks, writing hurtful comments, for example. He expands his cyberbullying to others in Jane’s company, bringing distress to his victims. Even at this stage, the attack has done enough damage to cripple the culture of openness inside the company. Employees may stop sharing personal information or speaking candidly about problems for fear of ridicule or retaliation. Jane continues to suffer the troll’s attacks in silence. If Jane blocks the troll’s account, he will make another. If he knows her address, multiple pizza deliveries may suddenly arrive at her door. It is no life. At this point in our story, in comes John. He is a stranger but, he too has a public account and has suffered from the actions of this same troll as evident from attacks on his page. He makes Jane a proposition for cooperation on how to stop the attacks. He says he knows a way to silence the troll. Sure he knows the way. The Knight to the Rescue and the Evil Troll are one and the same person. The troll’s trick was to establish an emotionally supportive bond with someone who was experiencing pain. John created a condition where Jane is now more likely to follow John’s seemingly innocent suggestion. She may click on a URL link or open a file sent to her. She might even come out and meet John. This story may end badly for Jane. A potential scam by John should have been stopped at the beginning — at the stage when the target got recruited.https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167404816300268 Are there any good guidelines to follow so that we do not end up in Jane’s position? The piece of advice “don’t let strong emotions influence your actions” applies well for investing in stocks or when choosing a life partner. It can be your first rule in the digital world playground. If you get scammed, do not lose heart. One thing victims often tell us after being defrauded is “I can’t believe I was so stupid.” Scams happen to the best among us. Evolutionary psychology tells us that we have been wired by evolution to trust other humans for the purpose of our survival. This is why any exploitation of this strong evolutionary adaptation is particularly painful to us. If you are in a managerial role, make sure your employees aren’t sick, tired, or go hungry at work. When employees are physically or emotionally weakened, they become vulnerable to psychological influence. If you work a lot with files, particularly PDFs, you can use these protective measures. While you may be wary of third parties trying to steal your information, you should also watch out for insider threats, such as negligent employees and disgruntled workers. We recommend that you follow these 25 rules to safeguard yourself from nefarious Internet scammers. The exploitation of love or anger happens less often because the scammer would need to maintain a psychological connection with the victim, requiring skill, time, and familiarity with the target. In our situation, the scammer exploited the victims’ fear. What is more, in order for this attack to succeed the victim had to be rushed. A skillful social engineer will not give the victim much time to think, and will always press for urgency. This is the first thing to pay attention to — If you are rushed to give out sensitive information (or any information at all, for that matter), it is a good time to pause. The second point to note is that when you find yourself in a similar situation, do not try to solve the problem by yourself. Ask a friend, a frequent contributor to your favorite Discord server, or a moderator of any well-known DAO. Good people want to help. Get a second opinion. Sometimes scammers just want to get dirt on the victim or de-anonymize the target. Often, however, sophisticated cyber exploits can come coupled with either a malware injection or a phishing attack, or some other surprise. Example №3 — IOS +MacOS Attack Vectors In my favorite chat room recently I was asked, in light of recent events, would it be safer to use MacOS & IOS for work? Is it true that they have better security? I don’t have a definite answer here — both yes and no. First of all, There is a lot of malware for macOS/IOS, the thing is that exploits 0days/1 day for MacOS/IOS costs slightly more than Windows/Android. There is no difference, just a difference in the price of preparation and in the price of different exploits (including file gluing exploits or delivery exploits — they always cost more), I suggest you go to Zerodium and see the prices. In general, the toolkit is more or less the same so don’t assume that macOS is more secure. Again, it is based on FreeBSD. In other words, know who is working against you and what they are capable of. In other words, the chances of getting into a massive attack are less, but the chances of being hacked by someone who is not sorry to spend 5–10 thousand dollars to prepare for your hack are equal on all devices and almost all operating systems. Hackers also care about economics, profit, and cost. If they are confident they can take the risk. Keep that in mind. Use Qubes OS, Whonix, Tails, or Graphene OS (which is way better than closed and thus unable to estimate risks IOS. Jailbreaking a device makes everything even worse) but some of them require a lot of preparation work and do not have out of the box security! But. Any secure OS can’t help you if you don’t care about simple security rules — keep that in mind. I am not asking you to comply with all of this, but you must remember the main rule in this particular case: Your level of OpSec usually depends on your threat model and which adversary you’re up against. So it’s hard to define how good your OpSec is. If we finally want to give people the opportunity to be their own bank, we must realize that in this case, people must be able to replace all those services and actions for which traditional banks get money. Yes, it seems like it is a veritable minefield over there. Keep the faith. Learn the latest attack techniques, white hat cheat sheets, and defenses. Only knowledge can defeat criminals’ knowledge. In this intellectual boxing match the most prepared wins, and we want that to be you! Support is very important to me, with it I can spend less time at work and do what I love — educating DeFi & Crypto users! If you want to support my work, you can send me a donation to the address: 0xB25C5E8fA1E53eEb9bE3421C59F6A66B786ED77A or officercia.eth — ETH, BSC, Polygon, Optimism, Zk, Fantom, etc; 17Ydx9m7vrhnx4XjZPuGPMqrhw3sDviNTU — BTC; 4AhpUrDtfVSWZMJcRMJkZoPwDSdVG6puYBE3ajQABQo6T533cVvx5vJRc5fX7sktJe67mXu1CcDmr7orn1CrGrqsT3ptfds — Monero.

Fed Chair Powell’s tone and yield curve to steer market reaction to Fed rate cut

Fed Chair Powell’s tone and yield curve to steer market reaction to Fed rate cut

The post Fed Chair Powell’s tone and yield curve to steer market reaction to Fed rate cut appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Federal Reserve’s big decision is coming on Wednesday, when Chair Jerome Powell will confirm if the US central bank has made its first interest rate cut since 2024. Futures markets have already priced in a 25 basis point reduction, which would bring the federal funds target range to between 4.00% and 4.25%.  In the last four decades, the stock market index S&P 500 has witnessed upticks in eight of ten cycles after the central bank eased borrowing rates, averaging nearly 11% over the next year.  Looking at the present times, when the current administration is talking about a resilient GDP and financial conditions, added to steady earnings from large-cap companies, America could be in for another “soft landing” period. Small-cap stocks to gain on rate cuts, inflation still a problem BMO chief strategist Brian Belski believes a reduction in borrowing rates is good for risk assets, like small-cap stocks. Despite lagging behind larger peers, small-caps are cheap, with the S&P Small Cap 600 carrying a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 15.5, versus 22.7 for the S&P 500.  Belski sees this discount as an opportunity for smaller companies to benefit from easing credit conditions. However, he insisted that the US central bank has a “dual mandate to respect inflation and job market data.” According to data from TradingEconomics, inflation grew to a 40-year high in 2022, but has now cooled to 2.9% as of August, still above US policymakers’ 2% target. Some economists have compared current times to 2007, when rate cuts failed to prevent a recession and caused inflationary pressures. Consumer price inflation is still at 3.3%, but wholesale prices are higher than citizens would like. A report from the Yale Budget Lab earlier this month found that core goods prices were 1.9% above pre-2025 trends as of June. The…

Sponsored Sponsored The company said this will mark the first time a publicly listed firm in Japan offers recovery and safeguarding services for Bitcoin and other digital assets. Bitcoin Savior is scheduled to offer 24/7 online support and plans to charge fees only if recovery is successful, taking a 40% commission in such cases.
