Swiss-based crypto asset management platform SwissBorg has confirmed a major security incident: roughly 192,600 SOL were lost, worth over $41 million. The breach occurred on August 9, 2025, tied to a compromised API provided by its third-party staking infrastructure partner Kiln, which let an attacker access the staking wallet and move the assets without authorization.
Starting at 13:16 UTC on September 8, a series of packages pushed to npm appeared to contain malicious code. The attack is highly targeted — a large-scale campaign aimed primarily at Web3 users.
This afternoon my Ethereum address monitoring suddenly fired off alerts: two outgoing transactions I never made. I was stunned — I hadn't done anything, it wasn't me. Was my wallet stolen? I rushed to check what those transactions actually did. After asking for help on V2EX I learned this is an 'address poisoning' attack, and I'm sharing what I learned so everyone can stay alert.
Can you still mine with a GPU in 2025? What are the returns? I recently tried mining with an NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti, and after a few days of mining I'm here to break down whether it's still viable.
