Bitcoin Depot reports $3.6M theft after corporate IT breach
Hackers breached Bitcoin Depot's internal systems on March 23, stealing roughly 50.903 BTC valued at about $3.6 million. The intrusion was confined to internal wallets and did not impact customer‑facing platforms. Investigations continue into additional costs.

Infrastructure provider Primev announced a “FAST RPC” that enables Ethereum mainnet transfers to reach effective block times as low as ~200 milliseconds by issuing millisecond-scale preconfirmations. The RPC preconfirms transactions before final inclusion in blocks, cutting user-facing latency from seconds to fractions of a second and promising near-instant settlement for wallet UX, payments and high-frequency trading on Ethereum. If widely adopted, the approach could reshape dApp performance and competitive dynamics among node providers and relayers, while raising questions about security trade-offs, validator coordination and transaction ordering incentives.

Protect your capital like your life depends on it. Instead of doing nothing, traders take 100s of small losses and lose major parts of their capital in these conditions. Don't let that be you. Especially in this price environment.
Do you think we’re at the top of the bull run or just getting started?
