Bitcoin Depot reports $3.6 million hack after internal wallet breach
Bitcoin Depot, the largest U.S. Bitcoin ATM operator, disclosed that hackers stole roughly 50.903 BTC, valued at about $3.6 million, after breaching its corporate IT systems on March 23. The intrusion was confined to internal wallets and did not affect customer‑facing platforms. Investigations are ongoing to assess further costs.

Bitcoin slipped as investors headed into the Federal Reserve’s policy week, while dogecoin and ether posted the steepest declines, reflecting market pricing in a projected 4.25% rate cut. Open interest surged from $25 billion to nearly $30 billion, signaling fresh leveraged inflows into crypto derivatives. Analysts warned the rising leverage is a double‑edged sword: it could fuel a rally that pushes Bitcoin above $112,000, but also raise liquidation risk if prices fall beneath $110,000. The heightened volatility underscores the sensitivity of crypto assets to macro‑economic cues and funding dynamics.

Good start of the week. As FOMC is approaching for #Bitcoin, there's likely a correction pre-FOMC taking place. Retest of the $112K area wouldn't be bad. After that --> onwards to a new ATH. https://t.co/qw7dV6b6CJ
