Altcoins may bleed if ETH/BTC crashes

The collapse of #ETH / #BTC will likely mark the end of the altcoin reckoning.
No guarantee that it plays out, but I think the likelihood is high.
A seasonal #SPX correction and subsequent risk-off environment (even temporary) could be devastating for alts with low liquidity. pic.twitter.com/rk9d0v5AlE

DOJ is worried that indicting Binance could incite a bank run

The DoJ is worried that indicting Binance could incite a bankrun, which could harm users in the case of an insolvency.
Just a friendly reminder that this wouldn’t be a worry for an exchange that is 1:1 backed and doesn’t commingle customer funds. pic.twitter.com/vRXcBtQ7cX

Coinbase confirms plans underway to integrate Bitcoin Lightning

We’re looking into how to best add Lightning. It’s non-trivial, but I think worth doing. I’m all for payments taking off in Bitcoin.
Not sure why you think we’re ignoring Bitcoin – we’ve onboarded more people to Bitcoin than probably any company in the world.
Let’s build it… https://t.co/9dFGYd6XZt

Bitcoin Subreddit hits 5.7 million members

#Bitcoin has 5.7 million members on reddit.
If they each bought 0.33 #BTC there would be no more #BTC.
This is how we know most people “into #Bitcoin” actually have no clue what it is and are not buying it.
There are FAR fewer #Bitcoin holders with conviction than you realize. pic.twitter.com/gLPi8JgW95

ZeroTransfer scam becomes more complicated

Scammers have gone pro! 👀
Now they can also match the first and last digits of your crypto address:
Real: 0xa7B4BAC8f0f9692e56750aEFB5f6cB5516E90570
Scam: 0xa7Bf48749D2E4aA29e3209879956b9bAa9E90570
Check the FULL address before you make a transfer. pic.twitter.com/WrzHB878uJ

I want to share this (luckily) unsuccessful, but very clever and close scam incident from yesterday 👇. Saved $20m. Hope it may also save you one day.

搞笑了😂😂
我认真看了下这个被忽悠了2000万usdt的地址，百分百是币安的内部中转地址，竟然是人工在汇集转账，而且竟然会中投毒地址的招，证明投毒地址的人也没有实时写一套软件广播监控自己的钓鱼地址库，不然一个小时内完全有机会swap 成eth 了，哪里还会被冻结🩸🩸🩸🩸
