Cryptic

2025 was one hell of a ride! 100+ clients served, 2 strategic acquisitions, 140+ Cryptic Talks, 5 Convergence events across the globe. We made it all happen together. Here’s to making 2026 even bigger 🥂

🚨 UPDATE: A $6.3 BILLION @binance breach reportedly started with a FAKE job interview. Attackers allegedly tricked an engineer into downloading malware disguised as a coding assignment, giving them a way into Binance's internal systems. They later accessed wallet engineers' devices, stole credentials and exploited Ethereum's EIP-7702 feature to execute unauthorized transfers on October 29. The FBI attributed the attack to North Korea. Binance says $2.85B has been frozen, and 98% of affected tokens have been replenished using company funds.

🚨BIG: More traditional stocks are making their way onto @solana . @Securitize added 13 tokenized US stocks to its platform, including @exxonmobil, @salesforce, @gamestop, @Disney, @Uber, Johnson & Johnson, and @LockheedMartin, bringing its total lineup to 25. Unlike synthetic products that simply track stock prices, Securitize's tokens are backed by actual shares and structured to preserve associated investor rights and economic benefits. With liquidity infrastructure supported by Jump Trading and settlement in USDC, the platform is also working towards 24/7 trading availability.

🎙 Can investor demands undermine a project's tokenomics?

Most people think tokenization is about access. But the more interesting development happens after an asset comes onchain. Historically, private market investments were largely passive holdings. Ondo Private Markets and @OndoPerps are moving toward a different model, where private market exposure can become productive capital within a broader trading ecosystem. That's one of the bigger promises of tokenization. Not just making assets tradable. Making them usable. Explore private markets on Ondo Perps → app.ondoperps.xyz/?ref=MZ1H7…

🇦🇪 @Certik is strengthening its presence in the UAE. Through its work with Hub71 and Gate Dubai, CertiK is advancing digital asset security, transparency, and compliance. Building the Trust Layer for Digital Value.

🚨LATEST: @coinbase staking could be back in New Jersey. The state has dropped its lawsuit against the exchange over its staking services, potentially allowing local users to access the products again after restrictions that began in 2023. The dispute was part of a wider regulatory challenge to Coinbase's staking programme across several US states.

🇳🇿UPDATE: @Revolut is taking its global banking ambitions to New Zealand. The fintech secured local banking registration and launched Revolut Bank New Zealand, with plans to invest NZ$120 million in the market over the next five years. The launch gives eligible customers access to deposit protection of up to NZ$100,000 under New Zealand's Depositor Compensation Scheme, alongside new savings products and locally regulated banking services.

🚨LATEST: Injective is building a more direct route for institutional finance onto blockchain. @Injective introduced Institutional Rail, giving banks and enterprises dedicated access to its block production, with priority transaction inclusion, predictable execution timing and instant finality. The new gateway forms part of Injective's broader institutional infrastructure for regulated tokenization, alongside its native asset issuance capabilities and SEC-registered transfer agent. Its exchange module also uses batch auctions, allowing institutional orders to compete alongside other participants on the same network rather than receiving separate execution prices.

🇭🇰 Standard Chartered (@StanChart) has officially launched its Tokenised Deposits solution in Hong Kong, making it the first market in its global network to offer the service to corporate clients. The solution uses the bank's proprietary blockchain infrastructure and the HKMA's EnsembleTX to enable: • Real-time transfers between participating banks • 24/7 interbank settlement • Settlement in central bank money, including wholesale CBDC China AMC, Finloop and PantherTrade have already completed live tokenized deposit transactions. Unlike stablecoins, these are commercial bank deposits that remain within the regulated banking system.

NEW: 🇦🇪 Abu Dhabi has signed four agreements with @OpenAI to accelerate AI adoption across key sectors. The agreements include: • Government: Launching a Machine-Readable Government initiative to help AI systems process regulations and assist with compliance assessments. • Energy: @ADNOCGroup will deploy OpenAI's frontier technology across its operations. • Investment: @Mubadala, Inception42 and OpenAI will use AI for investment analysis, opportunity identification and risk assessment. • AI adoption: A five-year agreement between Inception42 and OpenAI to expand AI adoption across government, businesses and education. The partnerships support Abu Dhabi's ambition to become the world's first fully AI-native government.

North Korea's Lazarus Group has accumulated an estimated $11.87B in crypto thefts, according to on-chain analyst @Darkfost_Coc. The total includes the recent $6.3B Binance hack, which accounts for more than half of the estimated amount. Based on 2025 figures, the cumulative thefts are equivalent to: • 45% of North Korea's GDP • 35% of its gross national income The comparison uses thefts accumulated over multiple years against one year's economic output. Some funds have also been lost during laundering operations.

LATEST: 🇧🇷 @MercadoBitcoin, Brazil's largest cryptocurrency exchange, has temporarily suspended deposits and withdrawals after confirming a security incident. Blockchain security firm Hypernative identified more than $40 million in suspicious transfers from wallets attributed to the exchange. The reported amount remains preliminary, while Mercado Bitcoin maintains that customer funds are safe and its investigation is ongoing.
