X account of p2e game DeFi Kingdoms compromised

The DeFi Kingdoms X page has apparently been hacked promoting what appears to be a phishing website.

In an X post on Jan. 9, an account for DFK Chain, an Avalanche Subnet crafted for DeFi Kingdoms, said that the play-to-earn game’s X account fell victim to a hacker attack, leading to the publishing of phishing links.

While the exact method of compromising the account remains unclear, @DreamerDFK, the president of Kingdom Studios, disclosed in a separate post that the security breach was related to an X security issue, distinct from DFK Chain and its Discord.

In a fraudulent post on DeFi Kingdoms’ X account, scammers attempt to lure victims into clicking on a link that closely mimics the official domain of the game. The full scope of the attack remains uncertain, as DeFi Kingdoms has not yet regained access to its X account.

Launched in 2021, DeFi Kingdoms is a video game built on the DFK Chain featuring pixel art style with tokenized resources, and support for in-game non-fungible tokens (NFTs) integrated with defi protocols. The game utilizes the JEWEL token for gas fees on the DFK Chain.

DeFi CEO Says ‘No One Cares’ to Deutsche Bank Entry into BTC Custody

Deutsche Bank to offer bitcoin custody solution for institutional clients. Cake Group CEO believes the move will not substantially increase capital inflow or attract new participants. Deutsche Bank’s Paul Maley projects the digital asset sector to grow to trillions of dollars. Julian Hosp, the CEO of DeFi business Cake Group, has shared a skeptical reaction to Deutsche Bank’s newly-launched bitcoin custody services for institutional clients. Responding to a post on X (Twitter) by Bitcoin Magazine announcing the bank’s new services, Hosp wrote “Sadly, no one cares”. In full, his response read, And guess what… sadly no one cares… because everyone in Germany can already buy #bitcoin either with an ETF (that has literally ZERO volume) or on an exchange. All these banks entering the space, are not bringing in extra money or people. They are just re-routing existing… https://t.co/MMZHSbGB9U — Dr. Julian Hosp (@julianhosp) September 15, 2023 The Cake Group CEO argue

MATIC Price Plunges, Have the Bulls Finally Lost Control?

Image
MATIC witnessed a decline in bullish momentum and has lost hold of the $0.74 psychological support. Buying pressure was weak as the CMF hovered around the zero line. Traders might likely short/sell MATIC in the near term since the 50 EMA crossed over the 20 EMA. Polygon (MATIC) brief dip below $0.78 has turned out to be an event that has lasted a whopping five days. Over the last 24 hours, the altcoin had lost 2.32% of its value. But its last 30 days’ performance was controlled by the bulls where MATIC increased by 6.61%. Currently, the MATIC/USD 4-Hour chart shows that the altcoin was hovering around a tight support zone at $0.71. Due to decreased demand, MATIC’s buying strength has been cut off. This indicates bearish dominance around $0.72. For MATIC to regain bullish momentum, the price must rise above the $0.74 psychological level.
