This brought him onto altcoins like polygon (<a href="https://investorplace.com/cryptocurrency/matic-usd/">matic</a>) and <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/currencies/sol-sol">solana</a>, which he used as explanations to clarify his process. When it came to solana he was impressed by their innovation efforts, "they're trying to solve problems in a different way to speed everything up." However, what really stood out to him here was the team working on solana - crypto exchange FTX, founded by 29-year old <keyword id="11930691" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="sam-bankman-fried" source="Orion">Sam Bankman-Fried</keyword>. "Who's working on that? Sam Bankman Fried and his team. Why wouldn't ya bet that horse?" O'Leary, whose nickname is "Mr Wonderful", said.Despite the rout in the cryptocurrency market, solana's sol token is still boasting handsome gains. At around $142, it's still worth over 4,000% more than it was at this point last year, making it one of the strongest performers over the last 12 months, behind gaming platform Axie Infinity's axs token, which is up a whopping 11,500%, and polygon's matic token, which is up 7,500%.O'Leary's approach to polygon was similar, first meeting the network's engineering team in Dubai before assessing what economic value they wanted to create."Aggregating transactions to reduce gas fees on eth is a smart idea," he said. Since polygon wanted to reduce the cost of using ether as a payment method and he was impressed by the team, he invested. And O'Leary didn't stop here, in clarifying this process he explained how he has come to view cryptocurrencies and all things digital after years of investing in the technology sector. In his mind, the best way to view all things digital is that it's all just <keyword id="11955988" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="software" source="Orion">software</keyword>. "One day, crypto and all these software platforms are going to be the 12th sector of the S&amp;P," he said.However, he did point out the importance of the US Federal Reserve embracing and regulating the cryptocurrency market efficiently. He said he was hopeful that Fed Chair Jerome Powell's upcoming report on central bank digital currencies will show how the central bank plans to regulate the space, it will "become the global standard."

"We haven't gotten that first viral, mainstream, crypto-based application. We will. That's what I'm looking for in terms of investments."He said he's looking for an app that, when spotted by a passerby on a Miami street, would get the comment: "Oh yeah, I use that!" — just as people would say with Instagram.Cuban also shared a few details about his crypto portfolio, saying he's heavily invested in <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/currencies/eth-usd">ethereum</a> and <keyword id="12483765" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="polygon" source="Orion">polygon</keyword>.He argued that <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/currencies/btc-usd">bitcoin</a> doesn't have a great deal of utility, and reiterated that it's "ridiculous" to think it can be a hedge against inflation under any circumstances."You can tell me all you want about El Salvador.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Altcoins in 2021 dominated in value and popularity growth in the now-$2.6 trillion cryptocurrency market. </li><li>Shiba inu was the top performer in both categories, according to analysis by BrokerChooser. </li></ul>Altcoins have been a major driver of the booming cryptocurrency market, which briefly topped a $3 trillion capitalization in 2021, with shiba inu and others leading in value and popularity growth, according to analysis published Monday. Bitcoin remains the biggest cryptocurrency with a roughly 42% volume dominance and a $1.1 trillion market capitalization, and its skyrocketing price has captured attention and funds from institutional and retail investors. "And while Bitcoin is undoubtedly still the king of <keyword id="11895317" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="cryptocurrencies" source="Orion">cryptocurrencies</keyword>, there are thousands of other coins and tokens, some of which have actually enjoyed greater surges in popularity and price than Bitcoin in the last twelve months," said BrokerChooser, an international broker comparison website, <a href="https://brokerchooser.com/education/crypto/beyond-bitcoin-cryptocurrencies">in a report</a>.The company, which hosts reviews of brokers in 227 countries and territories, said it compared interest via Google search data and price in terms of US dollars between September 2020 and September 2021 for the 50 current biggest <keyword id="11893898" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="crypto" source="Orion">crypto</keyword> coins.Shiba inu increased the most by each measure, with its value surging by 2.4 million percent over a 12-month period ended September 2021. A recent rally shot shiba inu to the 11th spot among the world's most valuable cryptocurrencies, a position that has since slipped slightly, to 12th place, <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en">according to CoinGecko</a>. <keyword id="11955065" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="dogecoin" source="Orion">Dogecoin</keyword> came in second on the list of price increases at 9,567% growth this year. "Envisaged as being a light-hearted and fun cryptocurrency to poke fun at the emerging world of crypto, [dogecoin] ended up building its own community and taking off in a huge way, particularly after being frequently mentioned by Elon Musk on social media," said BrokerChooser, noting the Tesla boss has said <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/currencies/elon-musk-bitcoin-ether-dogecoin-shiba-inu-floki-cryptocurrency-holdings-2021-10">dogecoin is part of his personal portfolio</a>. Behind dogecoin was Terra, which trades as LUNA, with its price jump of 6,496% to $31.66 in September. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/altcoin-to-buy-tremendous-demand-crypto-hedge-fund-trading-strategies-2021-10">The token, developed by South Korean firm Terraform Labs</a>, is used for governance and staking on a decentralized financial payment network that powers a basket of stablecoins for cross-border transactions. Terra's price "exploded" in January when it raised $25 million in a funding round from Galaxy Digital, Coinbase Ventures, Pantera Capital, and others, said BrokerChooser. Shiba Inu led in the number of searches, with "<keyword id="12243250" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="shiba-inu-coin" source="Orion">Shiba Inu coin</keyword>" soaring to 1.5 million searches from 70. Searches began to increase despite the coin's "incredibly low" price of $0.0000000003 in September 2020 that eventually drove up to $0.0000072 a year later. "[If] you had invested just $10 in the currency in September 2020 you'd have over $200,000 just 12 months down the line," said BrokerChooser.Rounding out the top three in popularity terms, <keyword id="12483765" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="polygon" source="Orion">polygon</keyword> searches surged by 100,456% to 90,500, followed by Terra, up 5,556% to 18,100.

Solana ranked fifth with a rise of 2,458% to $111.03. Solana's popularity has been fueled by bets it will overtake <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/currencies/eth-usd">ethereum</a> in the world of smart contracts and by <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/currencies/shiba-inu-price-whale-solana-defi-nft-squid-game-token-2021-11?utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">growth in play-to-earn games</a>.

On Friday, bZx posted what it said were details of the <keyword id="11907745" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="hack" source="Orion">hack</keyword>er's accounts, which included Ethereum totaling $21 million. The company, a decentralized-finance platform, or DeFi, said it was still investigating the hack. It said the breach affected "lenders, borrowers, and farmers" with funds on two platforms, <keyword id="12483765" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="polygon" source="Orion">Polygon</keyword> and Binance Smart Chain. "A limited number of users who had approved the unlimited spend had funds stolen from their wallet," the company said in its unsigned <a href="https://bzx.network/blog/prelminary-post-mortem">technical analysis</a> of the hack. "The developer's wallet had all funds drained from their wallet."The breach began with a phishing email sent to a developer's personal computer, bZx said. That email had "a malicious macro in a Word document that was disguised as a legitimate email attachment, which then ran a script on his Personal Computer. This led to his personal mnemonic wallet phrase being compromised," the company said. At about 8:30 am EST on Friday, the company received a series of notifications about suspicious activity, including a flagged wallet. The company tracked the hacker's wallet. It posted a list of balances, along with a few transactions, on its blog. The company said it was still working to determine the total amount of funds stolen. It said it was working with law enforcement to recover the funds and identify the hacker. "We are gathering data on the specific wallets which were affected by the attack," bZx said.Insider has reached out to bZx for additional information and comment. <a href="https://www.coindesk.com/business/2021/11/05/defi-lender-bzx-suffers-hack-for-reported-55m/">Coindesk</a> reported on Friday that bZx was hacked three times last year.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>A North Korean state-sponsored hacker group swiped about $41 million in crypto from an online casino.</li><li>The group has stolen more than $200 million worth of crypto this year alone, the FBI said.</li></ul>An infamous North Korean hacker group swiped about $41 million worth of cryptocurrencies this week from an online casino and betting platform, according to the feds.The FBI said the cyber group has pilfered more than $200 million this year alone. In the latest incident, the FBI <a href="https://www.fbi.gov/news/press-releases/fbi-identifies-lazarus-group-cyber-actors-as-responsible-for-theft-of-41-million-from-stakecom" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> the North Korean state-sponsored <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/lazarus-hacking-group-linked-to-north-korea-is-targeting-bitcoin-2018-2">Lazarus Group</a> hacked Stake.com on Monday.The hackers moved millions in Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain (BSC), and Polygon from Stake.com to 33 different cryptocurrency addresses, the FBI said in a statement. Reps for Stake.com did not immediately respond to a request for comment by Insider on Friday, but Edward Craven, a cofounder of the online casino, <a href="https://www.dlnews.com/articles/defi/stake-co-founder-says-hacker-did-not-compromise-private-keys/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told the outlet DL News</a> that the cyberattack was a "sophisticated breach.""The loss of funds is by no means a trivial amount, but this attack has not materially affected Stake's operations," Craven said. According to the FBI, the Lazarus Group — which was sanctioned in 2019 by the US Department of Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control — has been behind several other high-profile international crypto heists. The group has swiped more than $200 million worth of crypto in 2023 so far, including $60 million in July from Alphapo, a centralized crypto payment provider for gambling sites, and CoinsPaid, a crypto exchange based in Estonia. The FBI also said the group stole $100 million in June from Atomic Wallet, a cryptocurrency wallet. The US government <a href="https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sm774" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has said</a> that operations by North Korean hackers help generate cash on behalf of the impoverished country's regime to, in part, bankroll its <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/north-korea-missile-program-funded-by-cyberattacks-us-official-2022-7">nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs</a>. The FBI said this week that it will "continue to expose" North Korea's use of "illicit activities to generate revenue for the regime, including cybercrime and virtual currency theft."

Notorious North Korean hackers stole $41 million in crypto from an online casino. The FBI says the group has stolen more than $200 million this year alone.

Polygon, which is designed to scale Ehereum chains and develop the blockchain's infrastructure, <a href="https://twitter.com/0xPolygon/status/1397236024498180107">announced</a> the investment on Twitter late on Tuesday. Polygon originated from the Matic network, which created the Matic <a href="https://wazirx.com/signup?invite=2kpah6gr&amp;utm_source=business-insider&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=microsite" id="docs-internal-guid-199bd49f-7fff-dd26-ae7b-e5abf216924d">token</a> but has since developed its scope and now <a href="https://twitter.com/0xPolygon">describes</a> itself as "Ethereum's internet of blockchains". "Polygon is the first well-structured, easy-to-use platform for Ethereum scaling and infrastructure development. " its developers wrote on Medium when announcing the expansion. It is based on Polygon SDK, a framework that effectively expands the <a href="https://wazirx.com/signup?invite=2kpah6gr&amp;utm_source=business-insider&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=microsite" id="docs-internal-guid-03cb13ba-7fff-13fc-673f-98f8dce3d6f0">ethereum</a> network to include a wider variety of chain types and therefore adds functionalities to ethereum. "Polygon effectively transforms Ethereum into a full-fledged multi-chain system (aka Internet of Blockchains). This multi-chain system is akin to other ones such as Polkadot, Cosmos, Avalanche etc", the Medium post continues. Compared to the named systems, Polygon says it offers improved security, the ability to make use of the already existing, larger ethereum network and is more open and powerful. Matic is the 12th largest crypto coin based on market capitalization and was last up 35.2% in the 24 hours to 05:51 am E.T. at $2.27, according to Coingecko <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/polygon">data</a>. Matic was among the coins affected by the high levels of volatility in the cryptocurrency market over the past weeks, reaching its highest ever valuation of $2.62 on May 18, but has fallen by almost 14% since then. The Matic network was founded in 2017 by Jaynti Kanani, Anurag Arjun and Sandeep Nailwal.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Bitcoin surged as much as 9% on Wednesday, nearing the important $30,000 level.</li><li>The rally comes as First Republic Bank stokes fresh fears over weakness in the banking sector.</li></ul>Bitcoin jumped as much as 9% on Wednesday, nearing the key price level of $30,000, as banking sector concerns re-emerged.First Republic Bank stock nosedived almost 50% on Tuesday and lost another 20% Wednesday, hitting a record low, after reporting higher-than-expected customer deposit withdrawals.Worries were heightened after Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-04-25/first-republic-said-to-weigh-up-to-100-billion-in-asset-sales?sref=ZTdRrSmf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that the regional bank is in talks for a rescue plan that could involve $100 billion in asset sales. Bitcoin rallied through the turmoil in March as Silicon Valley Bank failed, and industry observers said a similar situation is playing out for the world's largest crypto amid the latest bout of uncertainty. "BTC is seeing a rally because another public bank, First Republic Bank, crashing, has re-stimulated the narrative of 'not your keys, not your money,' leading more and more people to realize the beauty and reliability of bitcoin [and] crypto's decentralized peer-to-peer cash system," Youwei Yang, chief economist at crypto mining company BTCM, told Insider. Bitcoin's rally Wednesday ended a five-day losing streak. The token's been on a tear in April and 2023 broadly, hitting 10-month highs earlier this month to nearly $31,000.Ethereum meanwhile is up 7% in the past day, according to <a href="https://messari.io/dashboard" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Messari,</a> as altcoins like solana and polygon also jumped 8% and 9%.Michael Dunn, chief product officer at derivatives exchange operator Bitnomial, told Insider that traders may be "signaling risk-on sentiment, as they anticipate a potential softer Fed policy and potential liquidity injections surrounding First Republic Bank."Another crypto exec echoed similar sentiments, adding that the slew of bank failures like Silicon Valley Bank last month made investors question the stability of traditional financial services.Turmoil in the sector has highlighted that "perhaps well-founded blockchain-based systems and cryptocurrencies with solid backing and use could be as good or even better, safer, cheaper and faster to use than the traditional banking systems," Mikkel Morch, chairman at investment fund ARK36, told Insider.
