According to @KookCapitalLLC, traders and developers in the cryptocurrency space face heightened security risks from sophisticated social engineering attacks. Researchers at Cisco Talos have identified a North Korean hacking group, known as Famous Chollima, targeting crypto professionals with a new Python-based malware called PylangGhost, as cited in the report. The attack involves fake job applications from impersonated top firms like Coinbase, Robinhood, and Uniswap, luring victims into installing a Remote Access Trojan (RAT) that steals credentials and wallet data from over 80 browser extensions, including MetaMask and Phantom. This security threat emerges as major cryptocurrencies experience downward pressure; market data shows Ethereum (ETH) trading around $2,521, down approximately 2.5%, and Chainlink (LINK) at $12.96, down over 3.4% in the last 24 hours. The source also highlights another prevalent threat where a crypto media outlet's website was compromised with a front-end exploit, deploying a fake airdrop pop-up to drain user wallets, underscoring the need for extreme caution when connecting wallets to any web platform.

According to @justinsuntron, Chainlink is now live on the TRON blockchain, enabling real-time data feeds for decentralized finance applications. This development is expected to enhance the reliability and transparency of TRON-based DeFi protocols, potentially increasing trading volumes and attracting new liquidity to TRON's ecosystem. Traders should monitor cross-chain opportunities and the impact on LINK and TRX price action, as the integration could drive demand for both tokens (Source: @justinsuntron, May 15, 2025).
