🛑 Topics Covered:

- GameStop’s $5B Bitcoin ProposalGameStop received a proposal from Strive Asset Management to convert $5 billion in cash reserves into Bitcoin. Strive, co-founded by ex-presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, believes Bitcoin is a superior store of value compared to cash, which they argue is shrinking due to inflation. The proposal is still under review by GameStop’s CEO, Ryan Cohen.

- GitVenom Crypto Malware AttackHackers have been spreading crypto-stealing malware through fake GitHub repositories in a campaign known as GitVenom. This malware targets developers, steals browsing history, crypto wallet data, and replaces copied wallet addresses. It has primarily been found in Russia, Brazil, and Turkey. Kaspersky and Microsoft both issued warnings, urging caution when using third-party code or downloading Xcode projects.

- Detailed Threat Mechanisms:

  • Fake Repositories

  • Malicious Payloads

  • Data Theft

  • Global Reach

Protective Measures:

  • Verify Repository Credibility

  • Analyze Code Before Use

  • Use Antivirus Software

  • Be Cautious with Downloads

  • Keep Software Updated

The scheme, promising 10% monthly Bitcoin returns, was run by Amit and Vivek Bhardwaj. While Amit Bhardwaj passed away in 2022, authorities continue to investigate and pursue all involved parties.
