March 15th: Ripple holders volunteering to get sued?

By Dahveed | Noncense | 15 Mar 2021


Well, some people’s accounts on Nifty Gateway were hacked; none of them had 2FA enabled, and NG claims no security issues with the platform itself. A number of really expensive NFTs were moved to other accounts and some sold. You can soon see the film adaptation of this art NFT theft in theatres as “Ocean’s 11-letter password.”

Why have one hack when you can have two? Cream FInance and PancakeSwap are both suffering DNS spoofing phishing attacks today. One theory is that the team’s GoDaddy accounts were hacked. Maybe daddy is an Ethereum maximalist and is angry at copycat Binance projects?

 

*****

In “can this guy stick to cars?” news, Elon Musk and his CFO changed their titles to Technoking and Master of Coin respectively. What? No Top Doge and Minister of When Moon?

Amid FUD about India considering banning crypto, the country’s Minister of Finance said that they’ll “allow certain windows for people to use” — though, given India’s government’s outdated understanding of crypto, he may literally mean Microsoft Windows, with Internet Explorer as the only browser.

 

*****

Over 6,000 holders of Ripple’s XRP voluntarily became third-party defendants in the SEC’s lawsuit against Ripple to make sure their interest is represented. This is almost as baffling as when they volunteered to become RXRP holders.
