Another scammer opened a fake investment platform in Thailand and swindled an elderly woman out of 380 000$.

The woman realized that the crypto bro was up to something shady and decided to contact the police. The police then attempted a sting operation by arranging a money handover to the scammer, but the scammer never showed up.

Eventually, he was found in a luxury apartment and arrested. Now the police are looking for other victims of this individual.

For now, he faces up to 20 years in prison, and if more victims are found, the sentences for each case will be added together

Wait what?!

Within the next three days, Durov is supposed to present his new project, Cocoon — an AI system that will operate using the TON blockchain.

If his words from the stage turn out to be smoke and mirrors again, and all this hype was created just to keep the current unlocks from crashing the market, then things are looking pretty bad.

In short, just a couple days left. We wait and watch.

Few hours ago, one of the Satoshi-era wallets suddenly woke up.

This wallet had been dormant for 15.7 years.
In early 2010, it received 50 BTC as a block reward.

🚨 Today, those 50 BTC were moved to new addresses.

Research on the so-called “Patoshi pattern” (by Sergio Lerner) shows that the same miner (presumably Satoshi) mined blocks:

starting from block 1 (January 3, 2009)

up to roughly block ~54,000, which corresponds to mid-2010.


Why only until 2010?

At the end of 2010, Satoshi stepped back from the project and stopped mining.

After that, the mining pattern changes, and the “Patoshi pattern” disappears.


Wallets linked to blocks mined between early 2009 and mid-2010 are typically considered Satoshi Nakamoto–related wallets.
