⛽️ Bitcoin network fees are currently at their lowest — such values haven't been seen for almost 15 years.
This means that people are using the network less (fewer transactions and less activity). This is usually considered a negative signal for the market — implying that interest in BTC is falling, but this does not guarantee a price drop.

🇷🇺 The Government of the Russian Federation has introduced a bill that equates cryptocurrency to foreign currency values and introduces currency control rules for it.
From July 1st, Russians will have to notify the Federal Tax Service about foreign wallets and report on transactions, and transactions between residents will be severely restricted.
At the same time, opening foreign wallets is not prohibited, but liability for violations is not yet specified — this will probably be added later.

☠️ How Koreans "hacked" Drift Protocol for $285 000 000
North Korean hackers spent six months impersonating themselves as "quantum trading fund" employees, met with the Drift team at conferences, communicated on Telegram, and even invested $1 million of their own money to gain trust.
When relations became "working," they sent a repository with a file that exploited a vulnerability in Visual Studio Code and Cursor — it was enough to simply open it.
After this, the hackers automatically deleted correspondence and traces of the attack, and about $285 million disappeared from the protocol — the main weapon turned out to be not an exploit, but six months of patience and social engineering.

☠️ A married couple from the Irkutsk region lost about 1,600,000 rubles after believing in "profitable investments" in crypto and transferring money to fraudsters.
Initially, they invested small amounts, but later took out a loan for 1,000,000 rubles and credit cards, and when they tried to withdraw the money, they were asked for another "insurance" of a million.
The scheme turned out to be classic: a fake curator, a bogus investment account, and constant requests to transfer even more money.

🇰🇿 In Kazakhstan, the investigation into the NBC TV financial pyramid, which promised up to 10% profit per day allegedly for watching movie trailers, has been completed — the investigation revealed that new participants' money was converted into cryptocurrency via P2P platforms, after which law enforcement officers seized over 1,000,000 USDT.
According to the authorities, the organizers attracted people through the internet and messengers, and the entire scheme worked only due to new deposits — a classic pyramid disguised as "investments."

🪙 Strategy continues to buy Bitcoin, but at the same time the company has already accumulated a paper loss of more than $14.5 billion for the quarter — despite constant purchases, BTC is trading below their average entry price, which keeps performance weak.
This puts pressure on the company — shares are not growing, and the strategy has not yet brought the expected effect.

This refers to the notorious "scam compounds," where people are often held by force and made to engage in crypto and investment scams.
