According to monitoring by on-chain analysis firm Galaxy Research (@glxyresearch), the ColdCard wallet hacking incident has developed into a third wave, with an additional 207.73 BTC stolen. Currently, the three waves of attacks have cumulatively stolen 1,367.05 BTC (approximately $88.6 million), involving 4,585 addresses. On-chain data shows that the three waves of attacks exhibit highly similar characteristics: identical fund consolidation topology, identical P2WPKH target addresses, and mixed derivation paths. Each wave occurred approximately 27 hours apart, suggesting they were carried out by the same attacker, but there is currently no direct evidence to confirm this. Currently, all terminal addresses controlled by the hackers hold a total of 1,366.39 BTC (approximately $88.6 million), all of which are in an unspent state on-chain. Galaxy Research noted that the above data is based solely on Bitcoin block data and UTXO set analysis, and has not yet computationally verified whether the victim addresses have vulnerabilities due to low-entropy generation.

At least $676 million has been transferred from Shelbit-related addresses to Binance, including approximately $540 million moved after Dubai regulators fined the unlicensed exchange in January 2025. The report could not independently determine who within the Iranian government controls Shelbit, nor whether the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps directly operates the broader network.

"White-Haired Stock Guru" Serenity has summarized the capital expenditure guidance from the latest earnings reports of Amazon, Meta, Google, and Microsoft, stating that the four major tech giants are expected to allocate a combined capital expenditure of approximately $720 billion to $745 billion in 2026, exceeding the market's previous expectation of $695 billion to $725 billion. The market has recently experienced significant deleveraging, as well as position liquidations among retail and institutional investors due to margin pressures. While short-term adjustments may persist, it is difficult to maintain a bearish stance on upstream semiconductor companies and next-generation cloud computing infrastructure in the medium to long term.Serenity also proposed the "bottleneck investment" thesis, arguing that when trillions of dollars in capital flow into supply chain segments previously viewed as low-value commodities—such as memory chips and even enterprises in the energy infrastructure sector—these companies may undergo a valuation reshaping. Many currently popular AI supply chain companies were previously overlooked by the market during the telecommunications cycle. However, as AI infrastructure construction enters an acceleration phase and capital expenditure flows into their balance sheets, these enterprises may experience a repricing.

Odaily News: According to statistics from Hong Kong law enforcement authorities, a total of 25 investment fraud cases involving online romance were reported between July 24 and 30, with total losses approaching HK$70 million. In one major case, a female insurance practitioner in her 50s was lured by an online romantic partner claiming to be a "car dealer" into investing in cryptocurrency. It was not until last month that the victim discovered the investment platform showed account returns exceeding 800%, but her withdrawal request was denied. Shortly after, the romantic partner and the so-called investment expert went missing simultaneously, and the victim ultimately confirmed she had been defrauded of cumulative losses exceeding HK$26 million.Police remind investors to be wary of individuals who build relationships through social platforms before recommending investment projects, especially those involving cryptocurrency, guaranteed high returns, or requiring transactions through unfamiliar platforms. Do not relax your financial security vigilance due to emotions or trust. (Oriental Daily News)
According to Korean media Daum, volatility in the South Korean stock market has recently intensified, investor risk appetite has clearly cooled, and funds are flowing back from the stock market to safe-haven assets such as banks. Due to adjustments in the semiconductor sector and stricter regulation on leveraged investment, idle funds in the South Korean stock market are withdrawing rapidly, and the market is exhibiting a phenomenon of "reverse capital migration". Data shows that as of the end of July, the time deposit balance at South Korea's five major banks (KB Kookmin, Shinhan, Hana, Woori, NH Nonghyup) reached 973.49 trillion won, an increase of 24.09 trillion won from the end of the previous month, marking the largest single-month increase this year. Funds related to the stock market also showed significant contraction. According to data from the Korea Financial Investment Association, investor securities account deposits (idle funds for stock trading) reached a historical high of 139.69 trillion won on June 4, but as of July 28, had fallen to 107.20 trillion won, a decrease of over 32 trillion won in less than two months. The balance of credit transaction financing, representing the scale of market margin trading, fell to 33.19 trillion won during the same period, a decrease of about 4.5 trillion won from the peak of 37.72 trillion won set on July 2, a decline of approximately 12%.
Odaily News - After Coinbase's Q2 results fell short of market expectations, the stock briefly dropped to a roughly two-and-a-half-year low on Friday morning before paring losses to around $150. Over the past year, the stock is still down approximately 57%.Wall Street generally believes Coinbase underperformed this quarter, but opinions differ on the cause: some analysts attribute it mainly to a weak crypto market environment, while others have begun to question whether the company's growth strategy beyond its trading business can deliver.JPMorgan stated that Coinbase's results reflect a "challenging crypto environment," with new products contributing limited value to the income statement. The bank lowered its December 2026 price target for Coinbase from $196 to $148, while maintaining an "Overweight" rating. JPMorgan believes the company faces pressure across multiple business lines, with weak trading volumes dragging down transaction revenue and subscription and services revenue also under strain.Bernstein, on the other hand, believes Coinbase's long-term strategy remains attractive, but investors want to see more compelling execution, particularly in new business areas such as prediction markets and tokenized stocks.Mizuho warned that Robinhood is emerging as the mainstream alternative for retail crypto trading. Overall, Coinbase is still viewed as an important representative of U.S. crypto compliance infrastructure, but its valuation recovery increasingly depends on proving it is more than just a crypto exchange reliant on trading cycles.
Odaily News, Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor said at the company's Q2 earnings call that while the company has previously allocated nearly "100% of its funds to Bitcoin," it may adopt a combined strategy of holding both cash and BTC going forward. He stated, "Perhaps the best way to buy the most Bitcoin is not to buy the most Bitcoin immediately."TD Cowen and Benchmark both maintained their Buy ratings on Strategy following the Q2 earnings call. The two firms believe that the core goal of the company's current management has shifted toward bringing its STRC preferred stock price back to near par value, thereby restoring its ability to function as a financing tool.TD Cowen analyst Lance Vitanza said the most important takeaway from the call was management's strong focus on STRC. Company executives repeatedly emphasized that restoring STRC to par value is the core objective, and noted that despite recent price deviations in the security, institutional adoption continues to rise.Benchmark analyst Mark Palmer holds a similar view. He pointed out that Saylor and his team spent most of the 90-minute call focused on the same goal: restoring STRC to the $99–$100 range, making it once again the primary engine for the company to raise capital and purchase Bitcoin.

Odaily News: Data submitted by the FBI to a legislative committee shows that in 2025, losses related to cryptocurrency kiosks in Texas reached $56.8 million, involving 1,179 complaints, ranking first among all U.S. states. Nationwide, related complaints totaled 13,460, with reported losses surging 58% year-over-year to $389 million. Cryptocurrency kiosks accept cash and convert it into cryptocurrency, typically located at gas stations and convenience stores. According to Texas Tribune data, there are approximately 4,000 such machines in Texas. Scammers often trick victims into withdrawing cash from their bank accounts and depositing it into the machines. Jesse Saucillo, Deputy Commissioner of the Texas Department of Banking, stated that once funds are transferred out, recovery is nearly impossible, as the money typically flows to non-custodial wallets and then into mixers and other channels. He added that AI-generated impersonation content of police and state agencies has made phone-based scams more deceptive. AARP data shows that since 2023, around 30 U.S. states have enacted laws related to cryptocurrency kiosks. Indiana imposed a full ban on such machines in March, with Tennessee and Minnesota following suit. Texas House Committee Chairman Rep. Cole Hefner said the state will consider measures that go beyond the scope of regulation.
