This week, the crypto market stayed mostly range-bound, with Bitcoin hovering tightly between key levels. But price isn’t everything. Behind the scenes, regulation, security breaches, with the biggest passwords leak, airdrop opportunities, and massive treasury plays made headlines. From the stablecoin Genius Act passing in the U.S. to altcoin allocations showing up on company balance sheets, the industry continues evolving at full speed.

Let’s break down the top stories, starting with one of the most alarming security events in recent history.


1. Record-Breaking Passwords Leak: 16 Billion Credentials Exposed

Cybersecurity researchers have confirmed what may be the largest data breach to date. A staggering 16 billion login credentials have been leaked and are now circulating online. These include passwords and logins for platforms like Apple, Google, Facebook, Telegram, and many more.

This leak is not just another recycled breach. Most of the data appears to be new and collected from infostealer malware that harvested information from unsuspecting users earlier this year. The leaked data is organized into 30 massive datasets, with each file containing tens of millions, or even billions, of records.

Cybersecurity experts warn that these credentials are now being used for phishing, account takeovers, and more. Worse, they’re being sold cheaply on the dark web. Some of the information is formatted as full URLs followed by login details, which makes it easier for attackers to use in real-time exploits.

If you’ve reused passwords or clicked suspicious links recently, now might be a good time to change your logins. Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of protection, but even then, changing your passwords regularly is a smart move.

This event highlights a broader issue—our growing digital footprint and how easily it can be exploited.


2. Airdrop Farming: Fresh Updates to Track

At AirdropAlert, we continue tracking and listing new airdrop opportunities. Here’s what’s hot this week:

3. X to Launch Financial Tools in “Everything App” Push

Linda Yaccarino, CEO of X, confirmed plans to roll out investment and trading features directly within the app. This marks another step toward Elon Musk’s goal of turning X into a “super app” similar to WeChat in China.

The new tools will let users trade, invest, tip creators, and even split bills. X Money, a digital wallet powered by Visa, is expected to launch later this year in the U.S., with international rollout to follow.

Additionally, the company may introduce an X-branded credit or debit card. While exciting, this shift also brings regulatory hurdles, especially regarding financial licenses and anti-money laundering laws.

Despite these challenges, X is betting big on becoming a major player in fintech.


4. Hyperliquid Gets Institutional Backing: $600M Treasury from Nasdaq-Listed Firm

In a bold move, Lion Group Holding (LGHL), a Nasdaq-listed firm, has secured a $600 million credit facility to launch a crypto treasury. At the center of it? Hyperliquid’s HYPE token.

The firm also added Solana (SOL) and Sui (SUI) to the reserve, citing their growing influence in the crypto ecosystem. According to LGHL, Hyperliquid’s decentralized nature fits perfectly with their long-term belief in onchain finance.

Another Nasdaq firm, Eyenovia, followed suit and announced its own Hyperliquid treasury on the same day. Institutional confidence in altcoins beyond Bitcoin is clearly rising.

Stock prices reacted quickly. Lion Group saw a 20% surge following the announcement. It’s a strong signal that institutions are ready to diversify into advanced DeFi infrastructure.

5. Iranian Exchange Nobitex Hacked for $90M in Politically Charged Attack

On June 18, Iran’s largest crypto exchange, Nobitex, was hacked. Over $90 million was drained from wallets in what appears to be a politically motivated operation.

A group known as Gonjeshke Darande (or “Predatory Sparrow”) claimed responsibility. This pro-Israel hacking group had already targeted Iranian infrastructure, including Bank Sepah, just days earlier.

The stolen funds were sent to blockchain addresses containing anti-IRGC (Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps) messages. These vanity addresses are most likely inaccessible, meaning the funds were essentially burned.

This attack doesn’t seem financially motivated. It was a statement. Nobitex has long been suspected of having links to sanctioned Iranian entities. The incident underscores how crypto can become a geopolitical weapon as well as a financial tool.

6. Canada Approves First-Ever XRP Spot ETF

Canadian investors now have access to the Purpose XRP ETF, the country’s first spot ETF offering exposure to XRP. It trades under the ticker XRPP and is available in CAD and USD formats.

Purpose Investments, which already manages Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, stated that XRP has been one of their most-requested assets. The fund features secure custody via Gemini and Coinbase and can be held in tax-sheltered accounts like TFSAs and RRSPs.

This launch represents a major milestone for XRP adoption in North America. It also adds more legitimacy to altcoin investment vehicles.


Final Words

This week reminded us that crypto is not just about prices. It’s about infrastructure, regulation, real-world use cases—and unfortunately, sometimes hacks. Whether you’re farming crypto airdrops, tracking ETF launches, or checking password leaks, staying informed is key.
