Data: Losses from fraud cases in the cryptocurrency sector reached $370 million in January, hitting a nearly 11-month high

According to FinanceFeeds, Uniswap founder Hayden Adams has warned that search engine ads impersonating Uniswap continue to appear, resulting in users losing all their high-value crypto assets. Scammers purchase ads for keywords like "Uniswap" to place fake websites at the top of search results, with designs that closely resemble the official site. Once users connect their wallets and authorize transactions, their funds can be immediately transferred away.These types of attacks rely on user signature authorization rather than protocol-level vulnerabilities. An X platform user "Ika" reported losing crypto wallet assets worth hundreds of thousands of dollars after clicking on a fake link in the search results. Screenshots he disclosed show that the fake link was at the top of the search results, making it highly misleading. Similar incidents occurred in October 2024, where scammers replicated the Uniswap website interface and induced users to connect their wallets through subtle button changes.Data from security firm CertiK indicates that in January 2026, the crypto industry lost approximately $370.3 million due to exploits and scams, marking a nearly 11-month high and nearly four times the losses of January 2025. One single social engineering attack resulted in losses of about $284 million. A total of 40 related security incidents were recorded in January. Analysis points out that current crypto asset losses are increasingly stemming from phishing links, false ads, and social engineering attacks, rather than underlying smart contract vulnerabilities. As the DeFi ecosystem expands, brand impersonation and interface fraud are becoming significant risks affecting user trust.

Analysis: BTC faith buyers' positions have reached a new record high for this cycle, and the bottom of the bear market is no longer far away

Cryptanalysis expert Murphy stated that analyzing on-chain data from both spatial and temporal dimensions, the current distance to the "bear bottom" is no longer far off. In terms of space, taking the previous cycle as an example, in June 2022, BTC dropped to a low of $17,000, which is not far from the ultimate absolute bottom price of $15,000, indicating that it is already in the "bear bottom" range spatially. However, it took a full 7 months to truly emerge from and complete the bottom reconstruction.Currently, the "space" is getting closer to the bear bottom, but there is still a considerable distance in terms of "time." It is crucial to observe the behavior of conviction-driven buyers (Conviction Buyers, hereinafter referred to as CB), who, as the smartest diamond hands in this market, often buy during declines and sell after increases. In other words, rather than saying they frequently buy at the bottom, it is more accurate to say that the bottom is often constructed by this group of buyers. As of February, conviction buyers have accumulated a holding of 3.48 million BTC, setting a new record for this cycle. Since January of this year, they have significantly increased their holdings by 1.22 million BTC, a figure that far exceeds the previous cycle's events during the 5.19 incident, LUNA crash, and FTX collapse. Moreover, the current BTC price is higher than the aforementioned time points, indicating that "smart decision-makers" are investing more funds at this time.Although the final bottom position is difficult to predict, for the CB group, they do not hope to go all-in at the lowest point; as long as there is sufficient cost-effectiveness, they will continue to buy until all excess supply is absorbed. When a balance is achieved on both the supply and demand sides, it forms the bottom range of the bear market, after which, through months of consensus reconstruction, a new trend will emerge. From historical data, the determination and strength currently exhibited by conviction-driven buyers fully meet the standard of "not far from the bear bottom."
