Yesterday, several notable NFT discords were hacked, including:
Moonbirds/PROOF
Project PXN
Memeland
RTFKT
Alien Frens
Axie Infinity
Cool Cats
Many have theorized that Discord's server-wide "mee6" bot was compromised, allowing hackers to take advantage of uneducated beginners!
The theorized process of the hack:
Mee6 bot was compromised
Hackers used Mee6 to add permissions to fake founder look-a-like accounts
Fake minting link was announced via announcement channels
Some tips to avoid this in the coming future (if you don't already know):
Projects will NEVER do surprise mints
ALWAYS check to make sure it's an official link
ALWAYS cross-check announcements (Twitter/Discord)
Never sign contracts with your hardware wallet
Get a HARDWARE wallet...
Stay safe out there degens!
A nice start to the week:

Another dull day for Bitcoin as it continues to consolidate and rubber band between $29,000 and $31,000.
Notable Bitcoin metrics to take note of:
Daily RSI indicates that price action just exited oversold territory.
Daily MACD is currently indicating a shift from bearish momentum to bullish momentum.
The $30,000 support level has yet to fail us.
Are we at Bitcoin's breaking point?
Ledger's new... iOS browser extension?
Yesterday, Ledger announced "Ledger Connect," a multi-chain browser extension created to allow iPhone users to make transactions safe and securely on the go!
Ledger will be launching its own browser extension!
With Ledger Connect, you'll be able to easily & safety connect your Ledger accounts directly to Web3 apps via desktop or mobile – on the go.

Alongside Ledger Connect, the team also revealed a new layer of security called "Web3 Check." A new protocol was developed to "automatically warn you about the risk and potential security issues linked to past scams, hacked websites, and fraudulent smart contracts."
At launch, Ledger Connect will support:
ETH and SOL
Ledger Nano X
iOS 15.4+ iPhones
