According to Gate.io News bot, Malay Mail reported that the police of Terengganu state in Malaysia, in collaboration with the TNB SEAL team, carried out a joint operation in Ulu Terengganu and Marang, seizing an illegal Bitcoin mining site. Law enforcement officers seized 45 mining machines on-site, with a total value of 225,000 ringgit (approximately 360,000 yuan).

The final round of Token Airdrop for users participating in Merlin's Seal on Merlin Chain has started. In this fair launch project, 20% of MERL will be allocated to the community. After that, the release rate of MERL will slow down significantly, with only 0.4% of MERL Tokens unlocked in the next 12 months, and almost no new Tokens entering circulation by 2024.

The ZKsync Airdrop contract was attacked, resulting in approximately 111 million ZK Tokens being illegally minted. The attacker exploited a vulnerability to obtain funds, but other parts of the ZKsync protocol remained unaffected. The team is working hard to recover the funds.

According to the Gate.io News bot and a report by Cointelegraph, Emblem Vault's CEO Jake Gallen has suffered a hacker attack, resulting in a loss of over $100,000 in Bitcoin and Ethereum assets.

SEAL security researchers from a cybersecurity company recommend that cryptocurrency industry practitioners disable the Zoom remote access feature to prevent such attacks.
