FBI Seized Nearly $2M Worth in Crypto in 3 Months
A new report from the US FBI reveals it confiscated almost $2 million in cryptocurrencies between March and May 2023. In its latest filing, the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) revealed it seized about $1.7 million in cryptocurrencies from March to May. In an effort to combat illicit activities, the FBI seized crypto assets, including Bitcoin, Ether, Tether, Monero and Dai. The agency reported that most of the confiscations were in ether, with tokens to the value of $800,000 seized. Around $147,000 in Bitcoin (BTC), $307,000 in Tether (USDT), 469,000 in Dai (DAI), and $20,000 in Monero (XMR) were seized. The FBI even managed to seize $200 worth of Dogecoin (DOGE). According to the FBI, the majority of seizures were from Binance accounts. The largest confiscation took place in the Eastern District of Virginia in the form of $463,811 in ether. The agency said most of the seizures came from Florida and Virginia. The FBI further confiscated digital assets in Arizona, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Mexico, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Illinois, Massachusetts, Louisiana, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Oklahoma. In its filing, the agency said the asset seizures came about after violations of federal regulations: “The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) gives notice that the property listed below was seized for federal forfeiture for violation of federal law.” The FBI has been cracking down on digital assets used in illicit activities. In February, the agency announced that it confiscated several cryptocurrencies, digital assets, and NFTs worth around $250,000 from two different locations in the US. The agency also announced in March that it launched an investigation into Do Kwon and Terraform Labs. Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.

BlackBerry Identifies Notorious Malware Targeting Crypto
Former smartphone giant BlackBerry’s cybersecurity division has identified notorious malware families that are exclusively targeting cryptocurrencies and the crypto ecosystem. Prominent malware includes the likes of RaccoonStealer, SmokeLoader, and Vidar, which hijack computers belonging to unsuspecting users for crypto mining or theft. BlackBerry Identifies Significant Threats The findings were published in a “Global Threat Intelligence Report” published on Thursday. In the report, the former smartphone giant states that they successfully averted over 1.5 million cyberattacks between the months of March and May. The company added that the primary target of these attacks was the healthcare, financial, and government sectors. BlackBerry published the report on X, stating, “Think only enterprises get hacked? If you’re a mid-market or small business, you still have a big target on your small or mid-size back. BlackBerry’s@aboutsecurity shares why cybercriminals select targets based on impact & how much they’re willing to pay.” One of the most significant threats identified during this period was RedLine, a commodity malware that can harvest information such as saved credentials, crypto, and credit card information. RedLine was used to breach Hatch Bank, a fintech banking platform, leading to the loss of significant banking data and crypto. BlackBerry noted in its report, “During this reporting period, BlackBerry telemetry observed a continuous trend in the use of commodity malware such as RedLine, which can harvest information including saved credentials, credit card information, and cryptocurrency.” Malware Targeting Crypto The company also identified several other malware families specifically designed to hijack and use computers for mining purposes. These include RaccoonStealer, Vidar, and SmokeLoader. SmokeLoader, a rogue financial tool, is of particular concern and has been used by Russian hackers and threat actors for rogue crypto mining. RaccoonStealer, a malware that can be sourced from the dark web, has been designed to specifically target crypto wallets and steal information. The malware is capable of obtaining passwords, cookies, web browser data, and cryptocurrency wallet data. Another malware, Vidar, targets Linux users and extracts information from crypto wallets and exchanges. Hackers routinely target Linux systems because they are vulnerable to mining attacks. BlackBerry has advised companies to apply security patches to secure themselves from attacks orchestrated by the malware families in question. “Vidar harvests banking information, browser credentials, and cryptocurrency wallets, as well as standard files.” The report also highlighted the Clop ransomware, which was used to target banking and financial institutions. This particular ransomware was also responsible for a data breach at Hatch Bank. The report also highlighted the growing threat to critical sectors from hackers and such malware, emphasizing the importance and urgency for companies to bolster their cybersecurity practices to counter these threats. Hackers have also introduced the Promotei botnet to target Linux-based servers to mine cryptocurrencies such as Monero. Given the botnet’s advanced features, tracing and stopping it has been notoriously difficult. The Crypto Space And Cybersecurity SonicWall, a cybersecurity firm, has, in a recent report, stated that crypto-jacking incidents have risen a staggering 399% year-on-year. Most of the entities behind these attempts are based in regions where mining bans and sanctions are in force. An estimate by Statista projects the cybersecurity market to reach $162 billion in 2023 on the back of increasing threats to the crypto ecosystem. The most recent hack targeting an exchange occurred on the 22nd of July when North Korean hackers from the notorious Lazarus Group targeted the Coinspaid exchange and stole around $37 million.

A privacy-focused cryptocurrency, Monero (XMR) was launched in April 2014 with the aim of facilitating private and anonymous transactions. Although Bitcoin (BTC) is widely believed to be "private", it is in fact not anonymous, and blockchain analytics firms such as Chainalysis have become adept at tracing transactions on Bitcoin and most other blockchain networks.

Unlike Bitcoin, Monero is designed as a censorship-resistant cryptocurrency and claims to use advanced cryptography and various other techniques to shield the identities of XMR senders and receivers. In fact, security and privacy are two of Monero’s biggest USPs.

Monero was originally introduced as a hard fork of Bytecoin (BCN) — a decentralized and privacy-oriented cryptocurrency created in 2012. While Monero has its origins in Bytecoin, it built upon and improved the decentralization, security and privacy features of Bytecoin’s CryptoNote technology. 

Monero’s core team comprises a largely anonymous group of developers. Riccardo Spagni (a.k.a. ‘Fluffypony’) and David Latapie are, however, Monero’s two publicly known contributors. XMR, the native coin of Monero, is a decentralized privacy coin.

XMR price

Like most cryptocurrencies launched during its time, XMR price in USD terms didn’t have any noteworthy movement in the early days. XMR price stayed well under $1 throughout 2015 and only started picking up in Aug 2016. According to our live XMR/USDT price chart, the coin rallied to around $14 in September that year.

XMR coin’s next big surge came alongside a market-wide rally starting in January 2017. Its price broke out of the resistance at $14 by March 2017 and kept climbing month after month, closing in on $500 by late December 2017.

XMR peaked in early January 2018, setting an all-time high of just under $550. At the time, Monero's market cap reached nearly $8.5 billion.

XMR price went into a corrective phase thereafter, dropping under $50 by the end of 2018. It couldn’t break the $100 barrier for most of 2019 and 2020, springing back to life only in October 2020 — almost 7 months into the Covid-19 pandemic. This resurgence catapulted XMR coin to yet another high of nearly $480 in May 2021. It has since lost half of its ground, trading in the vicinity of $200 in 2022.

How XMR works

Monero blockchain is secured using a unique, community-created, CPU-friendly and ASIC-resistant Proof-of-Work algorithm called RandomX. One of its main highlights is its ASIC-resistance, implying that it prevents hash-rate domination by powerful ASIC mining equipment, ensuring that anyone can mine XMR coin using regular computers. A new block gets created every 2 minutes on the Monero blockchain and the block rewards are handed over to the miners.

XMR, like BTC, can be used to pay for goods and services, as well as traded against other crypto coins on exchanges.

Monero accomplishes its core objective with the help of three main privacy technologies – stealth addresses, ring confidential transactions (RingCT) and ring signatures. Combined together, these three conceal the receiver, amount, and the sender of the transaction, respectively. All transactions done on the Monero network are believed to stay private, with no possibility of even accidentally conducting a transparent transaction.

XMR news, updates and highlights

In recent XMR news, the blockchain’s developer community announced in April 2022, via a GitHub post, that the network will undergo a hard fork in July 2022. Please note, Monero used to hard fork every 6 months prior to Oct 18, 2020, the date of its last hard fork. These bi-annual hard forks were meant to regularly introduce significant consensus changes to the network, resulting in additional network-wide improvements and privacy enhancements. However, the core team decided that this wasn’t necessary anymore as the protocol had accomplished ample maturity and stability. 

The upcoming Monero hard fork will occur at a block height of 2,668,888, leading to more optimized security as well as certain fee changes on the network. This will be version fifteen (V15) of the Monero blockchain.
