⚠️ NEW IN: 300-GPU CRYPTO MINE RAIDED IN MEXICO Mexican authorities have dismantled a clandestine crypto mining operation in the Sierra Norte region of Puebla, seizing around 300 GPUs, 80 medium-voltage terminals and eight satellite antennas. The facility was allegedly connected illegally to infrastructure linked to the nearby Nuevo Necaxa hydroelectric system, prompting an investigation into large-scale electricity theft. Authorities are also investigating possible links to organized crime and the use of crypto mining to launder illicit funds. The site is the fourth illegal crypto mining operation discovered in the area since early 2025. ❄️ @Release 💬 @Conversate

⚠️ JUST IN: HACKER LOSES $7.8M TO MEV BOT A hacker attempted to drain approximately $7.8M in rsETH from an Ethereum Gnosis Safe by exploiting a custom Safe module connected to a Uniswap v4 pool. However, the exploit transaction was detected in the public mempool and front-run by the MEV bot “Yoink,” which captured the funds before the original attacker could. Kelp DAO has since placed the receiving address under a temporary 24-hour freeze while investigating the incident. ❄️ @Release 💬 @Conversate

⚠️ JUST IN: Ransomware Developer Sentenced to 12 Years A Zurich court has sentenced 52-year-old Ukrainian developer Artem Melnik to 12 years and 9 months in prison for developing the LockerGoga, MegaCortex and Nefilim ransomware used in attacks against companies worldwide. Victims included Stadler Rail, Meier Tobler and Crealogix, with prosecutors estimating total damages at more than $123M. The court found that Melnik developed the malware and passed it to other operators who selected targets and coordinated extortion campaigns. He claimed he was only an IT-security consultant, but investigators found ransomware source code and extortion-related messages among his data. The case also links to fugitive ransomware administrator Volodymyr Tymoshchuk, aka “Farnetwork” and “Deadforz,” who is wanted by the FBI with a $10M reward for information leading to his arrest or conviction. ❄️ @Release 💬 @Conversate
