De cryptomarkt laat deze week nauwelijks beweging zien. Bitcoin noteert nog altijd rond de 110.000 dollar, precies hetzelfde niveau als een week geleden. Ook bij de altcoins is er weinig verandering te bespeuren, al staan de meeste munten licht in de min met verliezen tussen de drie en vijf procent. Daarmee lijkt het een rustige periode zonder grote koersschommelingen. Toch gebeurt er op de markten zelf wel degelijk wat. Na AMDAX is er nu een tweede bedrijf dat de strategie van Microstrategy naar de Amsterdamse beurs brengt. Treasury, zoals het nieuwe initiatief heet, wil zich profileren als Bitcoinopkoopbedrijf. Bekende namen staan achter deze constructie. De Winklevoss-broers, oprichters van cryptobeurs Gemini, investeerden mee, net als David Bailey, een Amerikaanse ondernemer die dicht tegen president Trump aanzit. In totaal is er 126 miljoen euro opgehaald, waarmee inmiddels al duizend bitcoin zijn aangeschaft. Treasury kiest voor een omgekeerde beursgang door de notering van het kleine bedrijf Nedsense over te nemen. Een exacte datum voor de beursnotering is nog niet bekend. Daarmee staat Amsterdam in korte tijd twee van dit soort projecten toe. AMDAX kondigde eerder de Amsterdam Bitcoin Treasury Strategy aan. Daar is in de eerste ronde deze week twintig miljoen euro opgehaald, met de mogelijkheid om dit bedrag op te schalen naar dertig miljoen. Ook hier is het doel om zoveel mogelijk bitcoin in te kopen en op de balans te zetten. Daarmee sluit Nederland aan bij een bredere Europese trend: in Duitsland, Frankrijk, het Verenigd Koninkrijk en Zweden bestaan al langer beursgenoteerde bedrijven die deze strategie volgen. De komst van Treasury valt vooral op door de omvang van de investering en de prominente namen die zich eraan verbinden. Verder ligt cryptobedrijf OKX onder vuur van De Nederlandsche Bank. Het van oorsprong Chinese bedrijf heeft inmiddels een Europese vergunning via Malta, maar opereerde eerder zonder de verplichte registratie in Nederland. Daarvoor legt DNB nu een boete op van 2,25 miljoen euro. Dat bedrag ligt onder de maximale straf van vier miljoen euro, omdat OKX stappen heeft gezet om overtredingen te voorkomen en ondertussen een Europese vergunning volgens de nieuwe MiCAR-regels heeft verkregen. Toch is de straf niet onomstreden: OKX was actief in Nederland terwijl andere grote partijen, zoals Binance, Coinbase en Bybit, zich wél aan de registratieverplichtingen hielden. Tot slot verbreedt DeGiro zijn aanbod. Vanaf maandag kunnen Nederlandse klanten via het platform twintig van de grootste cryptovaluta verhandelen. Het bedrijf benadrukt dat er geen plannen zijn om een volwaardige crypto-exchange te worden, maar positioneert zich wel in de kopgroep wat betreft transactiekosten. Met een miljoen Nederlandse klanten is DeGiro een van de belangrijkste beleggingsplatforms in het land, al is de verwachting dat de stap richting crypto geen grote verschuiving op de markt zal veroorzaken. Deze week in de CryptocastEen gesprek met Martijn Siebrand, program manager Digital Assets bij ABN AMRO. En dat is toch wel bijzonder, want banken waren voorheen altijd érg mediaschuw rond hun plannen met crypto en blockchain. Achter de schermen is er toch een hoop aan de hand: ABN zet stappen met het digitaal, via blockchain dus, uitgeven van obligaties en ziet in bijna alle stappen van dat proces een use case voor crypto. En ook op andere vlakken zijn ze druk bezig. Co-host is Mauro Halve. Met Daniël Mol bespreken we elke week de stand van de cryptomarkt.

$1.5 billion disappears in minutes. But what follows reveals North Korea's expanding reach — from elite hackers to soldiers on the battlefield.The audacious attack was on the ByBit crypto exchange in February 2025. Investigators say North Korean hackers the Lazarus Group are responsible – the biggest heist in the history of crypto. With our hosts Jean Lee and Geoff White, we uncover how they pulled it off.But as Pyongyang's cyber army is striking targets all over the world, North Korean soldiers have also been fighting on more traditional battlegrounds – siding with Russia in its war on Ukraine. We meet the South Korean correspondent who secured a world-exclusive interview with a North Korean POW. Does this all signify a turning point for North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, as his cyber operatives pull off increasingly daring heists and his military gain real-world combat experience fighting with the Russians against Ukraine? As Kim continues to ally with Vladimir Putin — a leader whose country possesses exactly the kind of nuclear expertise North Korea has long sought – is he more dangerous than ever? Meanwhile North Korea says it has nothing to do with the cybercrimes the Lazarus Group is accused of, saying the United States is making these allegations to try and tarnish its image.Our story is about more than money. It's about where it goes, what it buys, and who's fighting in the shadows.

How does one crypto transaction spiral into a $1.5 billion cybercrime? The Bybit heist.This wasn't just the largest crypto theft in history—it was a criminal feat of deception that exposed how even sophisticated systems can be breached when fraud, cybersecurity, and human oversight don't align. In this episode, we are excited to welcome returning guest Geoff White, investigative journalist and creator of The Lazarus Heist podcast, to join host, Alex Pillow, in examining one of the most audacious crypto thefts to-date. How did hackers executed the largest crypto theft in history while making operations seem normal from the inside?Tactics used in the heist and the broader implications of money laundering in the crypto space The impact of remote work on verifying employee legitimacy and protecting organizational value What the aftermath of money laundering looks like for victims—can stolen crypto ever be recovered? How companies can map where value resides across departments—and identify weak links before attackers do For more information, check out the resources below:  Cyber Siege: From Russia to RedcarThe Lazarus Heist podcastTo learn more about Moody's, please visit our website or get in touch—we would love to hear from you.

This week, John Byrne and Joe McNamara discuss Treasury's decision to postpone the investment advisor AML rule from 2026 to 2028 and reopen the comment process, drawing criticism from anti-corruption groups who warn it sends the wrong signal during the US's ongoing FATF evaluation. The hosts review Chainalysis's midyear crypto crime report showing $2.17 billion already stolen in 2025, with North Korea's $1.5 billion Bybit hack representing the largest single cryptocurrency theft in history. They also examine the newly signed GENIUS Act on stablecoins and its upcoming regulatory requirements. International developments include Russian universities offering Kremlin-backed master's programs in sanctions evasion and the EU's toughest sanctions package in years, which lowers the Russian oil price cap to $48 per barrel. The episode concludes with updates from the Wolfsburg Group on risk-based approaches and previews upcoming webinars on AI in compliance and fraud prevention.

Send us a textWhat happens when someone dies with cryptocurrency assets but no one can find the keys? Is cryptocurrency just a modern version of the "wooden nickel" scam? How are sophisticated criminals using digital currency to pull off multi-million dollar heists—and why is 2025 shaping up to be the most dangerous year yet for crypto investors? Former federal prosecutor Seth Gertz pulls back the curtain on the mysterious world of cryptocurrency, offering rare insights from his extensive experience investigating financial fraud and cybercrimes. This fascinating conversation takes us from the practical headaches facing probate attorneys dealing with crypto assets to the sophisticated "pig butchering" schemes that have become one of the FBI's most concerning fraud trends. And the stakes have never been higher. With over $2.17 billion stolen from cryptocurrency services in just the first half of 2025, this year has already surpassed the total losses of 2024. The DPRK's $1.5 billion hack of ByBit—the largest in crypto history—has sent shockwaves through the industry. Meanwhile, personal wallet compromises now account for nearly a quarter of all stolen funds, and violent “wrench attacks” are on the rise, often timed with Bitcoin price surges. Gertz explains the fundamental tension at the heart of cryptocurrency: created as "a civil libertarian dream scenario" to exist outside traditional finance, crypto enthusiasts now want integration with mainstream financial systems—but without the full regulatory burden. The result is a confusing landscape where stablecoins present themselves as safe investments while lacking the protections of traditional banking. You'll learn why cryptocurrency provides “an exponential ability to obfuscate funds,” making it the preferred tool for global money laundering, how the new Genius Act attempts to regulate stablecoins, and why these efforts may be mere “half measures.” We also explore how laundering behavior is evolving, with criminals now leaving billions in stolen crypto on-chain, and how regional trends are shaping the global threat landscape. Whether you're curious about blockchain technology, considering a crypto investment, or simply want to understand the legal implications of this rapidly evolving field, this episode provides essential context from someone who's seen the industry from all angles.

Welcome to The Chopping Block – where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. In this episode, the crew breaks down the return of the ICO — but with a twist. Pump.fun's $500 million token sale sells out in 12 minutes, sparking a heated debate about forward markets, new market structure design, and whether we've entered a smarter, more institutionalized fundraising era—or just rebranded 2017 chaos. Hyperliquid becomes the surprise king of pre-launch liquidity, exchanges buckle under demand, and a new class of crypto treasury vehicles raises eyebrows (and capital). Meanwhile, Trump declares “Crypto Week” as Congress moves forward with the most sweeping legislation the industry's seen in years. Is crypto finally growing up—or just getting better at dumping on retail? The gang dissects the narratives, the numbers, and the fallout.

Tokenized stocks: de term duikt steeds vaker op. Grote namen als J.P. Morgan, Robinhood en Kraken zijn ermee aan de slag, en ook Gemini – de Amerikaanse exchange van de broers Winklevoss – rolt inmiddels dit soort producten uit. Bij Gemini werkt Fenna de Blaauw, te gast in deze aflevering van de Cryptocast. Ze is daar verantwoordelijk voor risk governance & oversight, en was de afgelopen maanden betrokken bij het voorbereiden van de lancering van een eerste tokenized aandeel: dat van MicroStrategy (MSTR). Co-host is Mauro Halve, Head of Compliance bij Amdax. In dit gesprek legt De Blaauw uit wat een tokenized stock eigenlijk is: een digitale representatie van een bestaand aandeel, verhandelbaar op de blockchain. Dat kan zorgen voor 24/5 toegang tot aandelen. Gemini richt zich met dit product overigens niet op de Amerikaanse markt, waar dit soort tokens door regelgeving beperkt toegankelijk zijn. Europese beleggers kunnen er wél gebruik van maken, wat meteen de strategische keuze voor een internationale uitrol verklaart. De keuze om te starten met MicroStrategy is bewust: het is een beursgenoteerd bedrijf met een nauwe band met Bitcoin. Het tokenized aandeel is ontwikkeld in samenwerking met Dinari. Volgens De Blaauw was het juridisch en risicotechnisch geen eenvoudige route. Denk aan vragen over stemrecht, dividend en transparantie van de dekking: is elk token daadwerkelijk gekoppeld aan een aandeel? Mauro Halve heeft zich verdiept in hoe andere partijen als Bybit en Robinhood tokenized stocks opzetten. Hij signaleert dat de juridische constructies verschillen en dat beleggers zich goed moeten verdiepen in de bescherming die een platform biedt. Ook de vraag of je zo’n aandeel-token zelf kunt bewaren in je wallet, of dat alles op het platform moet blijven, komt aan bod. Gemini kijkt al voorzichtig naar verdere uitbreidingen. En dat de Europese markt überhaupt zo serieus wordt genomen door een Amerikaanse partij als Gemini, zegt op zichzelf al genoeg.

In May 2025, Coinbase, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world, got hacked. Or did they? It was more like a near-miss.

Sean Williams gives us a peek beneath a global shadow economy that thrives as countries like North Korea and China operate like criminal enterprises.Jordan's must reads (including books from this episode): AcceleratEdFull show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1154What We Discuss with Sean Williams:North Korea operates as a massive organized crime outfit, generating revenue through forced labor, human trafficking, drug production/trafficking, and cybercrime to fund the regime's survival.North Korean hackers (Lazarus Group) have become sophisticated cybercriminals, stealing $1.5 billion in cryptocurrency from ByBit exchange in February 2025.Chinese "flying money" (Fei Chen) operates as an ancient, untraceable money transfer system now widely used by drug cartels and for capital flight from China, possibly totaling $2 trillion annually.Chinese money laundering has had a visible impact on real estate markets in Vancouver, Toronto, Sydney, and Los Angeles, where properties purchased with laundered funds remain unfinished or abandoned.Despite public diplomatic cooperation between US and China on financial crimes, both countries have conflicting incentives — China benefits from US drug chaos while the US benefits from Chinese capital flight.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Join Laszlo Szabo, CEO & Co-Founder of Kiln, for a conversation with Adam Levine, SVP of Corporate Development & Partnerships and CEO of Fireblocks Trust Company.In this episode, Adam shares insights into Fireblocks' strategic expansion into regulated custody, explaining why they launched their New York-based trust company, how it serves institutional clients like VCs and market makers, and the operational challenges of balancing innovation with compliance.The discussion dives into the role of stablecoins in global payments, with real-world examples from emerging markets like Brazil and Argentina, where dollar-denominated stablecoins are mitigating currency volatility and accelerating cross-border transactions. Adam also unpacks Fireblocks' vision for tokenization—from traditional assets like T-bills to unconventional ones like investment-grade wine—and how interoperability between blockchains will unlock liquidity in the years ahead.Security remains a cornerstone of the conversation, as Adam reflects on lessons from high-profile hacks (including the recent Bybit incident) and how Fireblocks' infrastructure prioritizes risk mitigation without compromising efficiency. Looking forward, he predicts 2025 will be a year of decisive action for banks and asset managers, with stablecoins and tokenization moving from pilot projects to core infrastructure—even if the full impact may take years to materialize.PODCAST INFO:

In Episode #113 of Geeks of the Valley, we sat down with Rob Hadick, General Partner at Dragonfly, a leading $2.5bn crypto-focused global investment firm. We explore the seismic shifts in the VC ecosystem, from the rise of trade-sale exits to the resilience of certain sub-sectors like Layer 2 protocols and real-world-asset platforms. A focal point of our discussion is Ripple's landmark $1.25 billion acquisition of Hidden Road, where Rob dissects its implications for bridging institutional finance with native-crypto infrastructure. Along the way, Rob shares lessons he's learned underwriting tokenized assets, supporting portfolio companies through volatility, and spotting early signals of talent migration in an increasingly global industry. Whether you're an institutional investor seeking to understand new exit dynamics or a founder navigating the crypto VC landscape, this conversation offers a comprehensive roadmap to the future of digital-asset investing.Since 2017, Dragonfly has been at the forefront of blockchain and crypto innovation with a long-term oriented, technical, and research-driven approach, having been early backers of some of the most influential protocols and companies in the industry, including 1inch, Avalanche, Bitget, Bybit, Compound, DyDx, Ethena, Hidden Road, Matter Labs, Monad, Near, Optimism, Polygon, Ribbon and ZK Sync. Rob focuses on companies and protocols that are innovating at the bleeding edge of centralized and decentralized finance, payments, money, and digital asset infrastructure.Previously, Rob led multi-stage public and private investing into crypto protocols and companies at GoldenTree Asset Management ("GTAM"), a ~$50bn multi-strategy hedge fund. Prior to GTAM, Rob invested in and advised fintech, technology, and crypto companies while at Heritage Partners, Goldman Sachs, and PJT Partners. He holds an MBA from Columbia Business School, where he was co-founder of the Columbia Blockchain Club, and a Bachelor's in Economics and Political Science from Washington University in St. Louis.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-hadickWebsite: https://www.dragonfly.xyz

Zach Edwards from Silent Push is discussing their work on "New Lazarus Group Infrastructure, Acquires Sensitive Intel Related to $1.4B ByBit Hack and Past Attacks." Silent Push analysts uncovered significant infrastructure used by the Lazarus APT Group, linking them to the $1.4 billion Bybit crypto heist through the domain bybit-assessment[.]com registered just hours before the attack. The investigation revealed a pattern of test entries, VPN usage, and fake job interview scams targeting crypto users, with malware deployment tied to North Korean threat actor groups like TraderTraitor and Contagious Interview. The team also identified numerous companies being impersonated in these scams, including major crypto platforms like Coinbase, Binance, and Kraken, to alert potential victims.

Crypto derivatives exchange Bybit just became the latest victim of North Korea's elite hacking unit, the Lazarus Group. They didn't brute-force their way in. They didn't exploit some obscure vulnerability. Instead, they tricked a trusted developer, slipped in malicious code, and took off with a fortune. How did this happen? Why was $1.5 billion sitting in a single wallet? What mistakes did Bybit and Safe make? And, more importantly, what needs to change to stop this from happening again? This week, Mudit Gupta, chief information security officer at Polygon, joins Unchained to expose the security failures, the sophisticated tactics Lazarus used, and why crypto still hasn't learned its lesson.

They discuss how institutions are approaching this downturn, why Solana has been hit harder than the rest, and what catalysts could bring crypto back to life.
