Lavazza Coffee is using Algorand for supply chain traceability, and they’re not slowing down.

They have been doing this for years now. A great proof of concept for huge corporations that want to leverage blockchain to add transparency and trust, in July alone they recorded on-chain:

• 20,000+ tons of coffee cherries
• 189+ tons of green coffee
• 50+ tons of roasted coffee

To see the transactions on-chain, go to the link below and click on the transaction ID. In the notes section you can read all the details:

Hello all, my gate account has been hacked. I woke up this morning to over $16,000 stolen from my account.

I have 3 layers of security. Two factor, email password verification which sends the code and my funds password. All three layers were by passed.

I have looked through my events viewer to see if anyone has accessed my machine and all the event ID's show no access has been made.

I have traded for 10 years and have been obsessive over security I have never been hacked before this is the first time.

I am very aware of links, malware and phishing so I don't click about links. I don't and have not shared my password to anyone. I know very few people and no one has access to my house. I'm very private as a person.

Still all my funds on the exchange were withdrawn this morning and I went into a panic spin. Gate simply said, send us a support ticket and I need to all to my local police.

They have not been supportive at all. I never received one email from gate with a code to approve the transactions and my two factor is on all the time.

Unless the hacker deleted these email codes and got into my email, which I find so unlikely. I am not sure how it was all bypassed.

I have always traded manually but last night for the first time I tested a bot that gate offers with $2.

I have an API key that I've been testing my own bot with. I have not shared the api key with anyone. The bot I made I've run once and it is only to make spot trades not withdrawals. So it cannot be that, I have not shared that with anyone.

My simple earn subscriptions were all manually redeemed by the attacker and then withdrawn. To their wallet on the bsc chain. USDT had been withdrawn.

What are the recourse and steps out local police are useless. I highly doubt my machine was exploited as I only use it for my trading.

This becomes an issue where perhaps the exchange had a vulnerability exploited, but they would argue it was my device. Instead.

What are the steps from here? This is the first time it has happened to me. What do people normally do.

Thanks

This came very close to happening back in 2017, as we all probably remember, and since then the general perception has been that the likelihood of it actually materializing was negligible. Recently, though, the conversation seems to have resurfaced, and I’m curious if you think the probability has meaningfully shifted over the past few weeks? How do you personally view the chances of this scenario ever playing out? And if it did, what kind of long-term consequences would it have for Bitcoin’s role as the (as of now) undisputed king and benchmark of the crypto market?

I’m looking for suggestions on the best DEXs to use for swapping crypto. There are so many options out there, and while I like the idea of keeping full control of my funds without going through KYC, sometimes the experience can vary a lot depending on the platform.

I’d like to know which decentralized exchanges you rely on most for good liquidity, fair fees, and reliable transactions.

Bonus points if they support multiple chains or have a smooth interface. Curious to hear what the community prefers

Hey everyone,

I’m honestly at a loss right now, so I figured I’d post here and see if anyone has been through something similar.

Back on April 26, 2025, I withdrew 0.02270642 LTC (about $1.99 at the time) from my Binance account to pay for a tiny digital service (just a streaming sub) through a Sellpass store that used HoodPay for checkout.

Fast forward to August 24, 2025, and out of nowhere my Binance account got restricted. They sent me an RFI (Request for Information) about that little transaction. I went ahead and submitted everything they asked for — details, invoices, screenshots, even the checkout link. The case ID for RFI was later marked as closed, but my account is still restricted.

I also jumped on chat support (Case ID: 146658217) and spoke with an agent named Erika. She said my account is “under review” and it could take up to 30 days. But I wasn’t given any clear reason or timeline beyond that.

Here’s the thing: I’ve been on Binance for years. I trusted it as my main wallet for daily transactions. I’m a freelancer/website developer and I literally use Binance to receive payments and manage my money because in my country there is no way to hold USD. Having my funds locked like this is brutal — I’ve got rent, household bills, and school fees for my kids coming up. The uncertainty is causing a lot of stress and anxiety.

I’m not trying to break the rules here. This was literally a $1.99 purchase, and I cooperated fully with everything they asked.

👉 if anyone here has been through the same thing and knows how to escalate/solve it, I’d really appreciate the help. I just need access to my hard-earned own funds.

Thanks in advance 🙏

We know if from Casinos. You enter, exchange money for tokens, play and once you leave, you change back to FIAT. In the meantime, the Casino doesnt do anything with your money.

To my understanding, Crypto and Tether is different and the US Goverment is going to use Tether to increase money supply. Here’s my thinking:

Treasury issues a bill (1) of 100 USD and Joe Sixpack buys it.
Treasury takes the 100 USD and sends it to Tether.
--> Tether sends 100 USDT back to Treasury
--> Tether sends 100 USD back to Treasury to buy the next 100 US Treasury bill (2)

Now Treasury has 200 USD and 100 USDT.
--> Treasury sends money from bill 2, 100 USD to Tether
--> Tether sends 100 USDT back to Treasury
--> Tether sends 100 USD back to Treasury to buy the next 100 US Treasury bill (3)

Treasury now has 300 USD and 200 USDT.
Since USDT is becoming a fully valid means of payment, US Treasury now has 500 USD to spend, only taking on 300 USD of new debt.

Am I missing something or is this really happening?

I’ve noticed that in RCC it’s pretty easy to find all kinds of information about Moons: there are discussions about MoonWeek, price posts, governance votes, and various initiatives. But what really surprises me is that there doesn’t seem to be any clear information about the actual distribution process.

For example:

• When exactly is the snapshot taken?
• On which day are the Moons distributed?
• Where can we see the exact number of Moons distributed and how much each user received?

It seems logical that the community should have a transparent and predictable schedule — with dates, steps, and final results. But right now it feels like the only way to know is to wait for a mod post or simply check your Vault once the Moons show up.

Am I missing something? Does RCC have an official page or pinned info that specifically covers the distribution schedule (not just MoonWeek)?
