Comment recevoir un cadeau de 175 000$ sur simple demande - Actu Crypto 🗞️

Welcome to the JT du Coin, a show summarizing crypto news, sponsored by Kraken. First, an update on the recovery process for Ether lost in the Celp Deo hack. Aave has collected necessary funds and liquidated the hacker’s positions, moving to the third phase: repurchasing, redeeming, and destroying recovered RSTH. This is good news for victims, but they've faced another challenge. On May 1st, plaintiffs suing North Korea obtained a New York District Court order to freeze $71 million stolen in the hack, which Arbitrum had secured. The plaintiffs argue North Korea obtained ownership, not just possession, of the borrowed assets. Aave's lawyers contend this logic is flawed, likening it to a thief instantly owning stolen diamonds, allowing creditors to seize them from the thief rather than returning them to the rightful owner. This undermines fundamental private property principles. Aave's lawyers have filed a document explaining that victims retain ownership of stolen property. The judge initially ordered the freeze, but following Aave's request for suspension or cancellation, he issued a more nuanced order. He modified the immobilization order to allow an on-chain vote for transferring assets to an Aave-controlled wallet, but Aave must respect the immobilization order pending legal resolution. In other U.S. news, a dispute between WFI (the Trump family project) and Justin Sun (an investor known for publicity stunts) is unfolding. Last year, Sun moved $9 million worth of WFI tokens to exchanges, claiming he was testing deposit functionalities. WFI blacklisted his address and froze $240 million worth of his remaining assets. Sun accused them of fraud, and WFI is now suing him for defamation, alleging he aims to crash the token's price. Meanwhile, Meta faces scrutiny from the U.S. Senate. Mark Zuckerberg's company launched a payment system using Stripe and USDC to pay content creators in Colombia and the Philippines, bypassing traditional banking. Senator Elizabeth Warren finds this a loophole in the Genius Act, a law regulating stablecoins. The Senate has ordered Meta to answer questions from its banking committee by May 20th. Our sponsor, Kraken, founded in 2011, has obtained PSAN and Mika accreditation in Europe. They offer hundreds of crypto pairs, margin trading, staking, programmed investment, and recently, traditional CME futures trading for French citizens. Polygon has announced "anonymous payments," but it's not true anonymity. They've integrated a button to use Incall in their wallet, a "neutered Tornado Cash" that verifies funds' origin with Chainalysis before allowing anonymous transactions. Polygon's core protocol remains unchanged. In a bizarre incident, GROK, an AI program assisting Twitter users, was exploited for $175,000 in crypto. A trading AI called Bankerbot, designed to let other AIs create tokens and trade, accidentally created multiple tokens in 2025 based on Grok's tweets. One of these, DRB, briefly peaked at $40 million market cap. An attacker gifted Grok's wallet an NFT, granting membership privileges to issue orders to Bankerbot. The attacker then sent Grok a coded message to decipher and post, which was actually a transfer order for Bankerbot. Grok posted it, and Bankerbot executed the transfer. The attacker exchanged the tokens for USDC and Ether before deactivating accounts. Bankerbot's team recovered over 80% of the funds. This highlights the risks of entrusting important tasks to AI agents. Finally, Circle France has obtained AMF approval to offer services in the EU, strengthening USDC's presence in Europe at the expense of Tether and local players.
