News linked to both this project and an event.
Trader A (@missoralways) posted that he had stored seven-figure assets in Sigma for a long time without encountering security issues in the past. However, two of his recent wallets have suffered asset theft, both occurring when wallet balances fell below $10,000.He also stated that another friend suffered the theft of approximately $200,000 in assets today, and mentioned Sigma in connection with the incident. The Sigma team has launched an investigation. The trader said he released this information for security reminder purposes and emphasized that he is not an affiliated promoter of any bot-related products.
According to SlowMist, its security monitoring system MistEye has detected a counterfeit TronLink Chrome MV3 extension targeting TRON wallet users with a two-layer phishing attack. The extension disguises itself as the official plugin using Unicode obfuscation and brand spoofing. Upon installation, it first loads a remote iframe-based pop-up page designed to trick users into entering their mnemonic phrases, private keys, keystore files, and passwords—then exfiltrates this sensitive data via same-origin APIs to a Telegram bot. The malicious infrastructure involved includes the domains tronfind-api[.]tronfindexplorer[.]com and trx-scan-explorer[.]org; the malicious extension ID is ekjidonhjmneoompmjbjofpjmhklpjdd. SlowMist advises users to immediately uninstall the extension. If sensitive information has already been submitted, users should promptly migrate their assets and discontinue use of the compromised wallet.
"on-chain detective" ZachXBT posted on X platform, stating that PolyArb is a fake prediction market product with a wallet drainer on its website.

According to GlobeNewswire, eToro, a trading and investment platform, announced it has signed an agreement to acquire Zengo, a leading self-custodial crypto wallet provider. This acquisition aims to deepen eToro’s digital asset capabilities and accelerate its strategic initiative to bridge traditional finance with on-chain infrastructure. Founded in 2018, Zengo builds its keyless wallet architecture on Multi-Party Computation (MPC) cryptographic technology. It currently serves over 2 million users across more than 180 countries and regions, and has never experienced a wallet breach since its inception. Following the acquisition, eToro will leverage Zengo’s technological expertise to further support decentralized trading use cases—including tokenized assets, prediction markets, and perpetual contracts. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions.
According to CoinDesk, researchers from the University of California, Santa Barbara; the University of California, San Diego; blockchain security firm Fuzzland; and World Liberty Financial jointly published a paper warning that “LLM routers”—intermediary services positioned between users and AI models—have become a major threat to cryptocurrency asset security. The researchers discovered that 26 LLM routers are secretly injecting malicious tool calls and stealing user credentials, with one incident resulting in the complete draining of a customer’s cryptocurrency wallet worth $500,000. Additionally, by “poisoning” the router ecosystem, the researchers were able to gain control of approximately 400 downstream hosts within hours. Since sensitive data—including private keys and API credentials—is frequently transmitted in plaintext through these routers, users unknowingly expose their assets to risk. The researchers note that as McKinsey forecasts AI agents will mediate $3–5 trillion in global consumer commerce by 2030—and Binance founder Changpeng Zhao predicts AI agents’ payment volume will be one million times greater than that of humans—the current infrastructure’s security lags far behind the pace of industry development. The “weakest link” risk could thus trigger systemic, cascading crises.
According to The Block, U.S. musician Garrett Dutton (stage name G. Love) lost 5.9 BTC—worth approximately $420,000—after downloading and using a counterfeit Ledger wallet app from the App Store and entering his recovery phrase. On-chain analyst ZachXBT discovered that the attacker laundered the stolen Bitcoin via the KuCoin platform. This incident once again exposes the security risks posed by fake wallet apps, reminding users to exercise heightened caution when downloading and using cryptocurrency-related applications, and to avoid entering sensitive information through unofficial channels.
