In this year of our crypto lord, 2025, utility has been crowned king. Traders, those fickle creatures, now crave wallets, infrastructure, and DeFi tools that simplify their on-chain existence. How mature of them! 🌱
Brazilian crypto users, brace yourselves. Trustwave SpiderLabs (who sound like a tech-savvy circus act) have uncovered a multi-stage threat so slick it’s basically a cybercriminals’ dream come true.
