AdsPower, a popular browser extension, has reported a security incident where hackers spread malicious code, compromising some third-party browser extensions. The company's security team responded promptly, cutting off the channel used by the hackers and removing all plugins that posed potential risks. They have officially reported the incident to Singaporean law enforcement authorities and are still following up on the investigation.

In a separate development, a prominent crypto market observer, LookIntoChain, has noted significant trading activity regarding TRUMP tokens. A whale address, identified as, previously invested $16.7 million to acquire 309,514 TRUMP tokens at an average price of $53.93. Currently, this investment is experiencing an unrealized loss of approximately $8.48 million due to recent price fluctuations of TRUMP. Notably, traderpow's trading history highlights a strategic maneuver where the address initially purchased 1 million TRUMP at an average entry price of $1.79 and exited with a substantial profit of $22.7 million.

Meanwhile, OFFICIALMAGACOIN is positioning itself as the next big opportunity in the crypto world, joining conversations dominated by Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). While BTC and ETH have solidified their positions as market leaders, the rapid success of THE OFFICIALMAGACOIN—raising $1,000,000 within minutes of its presale—has captivated investors. Analysts suggest that THE OFFICIALMAGACOIN could rival or surpass early gains seen with other cryptos like Shiba Inu.

In other news, Dean Norris' X account was hacked and used to promote a fraudulent memecoin named DEAN, which was involved in a pump and dump scheme. The scheme falsely leveraged Norris' image to endorse the coin, leading to its temporary spike in market cap to $8.43 million before collapsing. Norris refuted any connections to the memecoin or its promotions, confirming his account's security breach and subsequent misuse.
