Review of today’s major cryptocurrency events:
Here are the main events in the cryptocurrency space today:
1. French soccer star Kylian Mbappe's X account was hacked, and a trader bought fake Kylian Mbappe tokens and lost more than $1 million. This highlights the ongoing risks of celebrity-related cryptocurrencies.
2. Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov was released after being criminally charged in France, but was banned from leaving France and required to pay a 5.5 million euro bail. The charges were related to his role on Telegram.
3. NFT market OpenSea received a Wells notice from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which accused OpenSea of facilitating transactions in unregistered securities on its platform. OpenSea CEO Devin Finzer said this could stifle innovation on a broader scale and endanger hundreds of thousands of online artists and creative people.
These events reflect the ongoing regulatory challenges in the cryptocurrency and NFT fields and the risks associated with celebrities. At present, regulators are paying more attention to these emerging fields, which will have an important impact on the development of the industry.
