Google Threat Intelligence has identified a cryptographically stealing malware called Ghostblade, affecting Apple iOS devices. Part of the DarkSword browser-based malware suite, it's used to steal private keys and other sensitive information. Google Threat Intelligence states that Ghostblade is written in JavaScript for rapid data theft; it activates after a device is compromised, grabbing sensitive data and sending it back to a malicious server. Researchers note that this malware does not run 24/7 on infected devices, requires no additional plugins, stops working after data extraction, and includes code to delete device crash reports to prevent Apple from receiving and flagging the malware. Ghostblade can access and forward message data from iMessage, Telegram, and WhatsApp, and can also steal SIM card information, identity information, multimedia and geolocation data, as well as access system settings. Blockchain intelligence platform Nominis reported that losses from crypto hacking attacks fell to $49 million in February, a significant decrease from $385 million in January. The platform noted that this shift reflects a move from code-based attacks to attack vectors that exploit human error, such as crypto phishing and wallet poisoning. Phishing typically uses highly realistic fake websites and similar URLs to lure users and implant malware capable of stealing private keys and other data. (Cointelegraph)

The judge's decision provides the company an opportunity to amend its complaint and pursue the case further.

Key negotiators in the US's crypto legislation push have reached a "principle agreement" on how stablecoin yields will be handled, an issue that has become one of the core points of contention in the passage of the crypto market structure bill. Senators Angela Alsobrooks and Thom Tillis reached the agreement with the White House. Alsobrooks' spokesperson, Connor Lounsbury, stated that the agreement aims to protect stablecoin innovation and prevent deposit outflows; however, ethical and illicit financial issues in broader legislation remain to be addressed to secure broad bipartisan support from the Senate Banking Committee. White House official Patrick Witt posted on the X platform that the principle agreement is a "major milestone" in pushing for the passage of the CLARITY Act, adding that other outstanding issues still need to be resolved. The GENIUS Stablecoin Act, passed in July, prohibits stablecoin issuers from directly paying interest to holders but does not prevent third-party platforms like Coinbase from offering rewards. The Senate Banking Committee plans to hold hearings next month after the Easter recess to amend the bill and vote on it. (The Block)
