In August and September, Indian state-owned refiners will turn to alternative sources of Russian oil, such as the Middle East or the United States.On August 20, a group of economists said that the Swiss National Bank should not seek to alleviate the impact of high US tariffs through monetary policy channels. Swiss exporters are currently caught in a double dilemma, facing a 39% tariff this month while the Swiss franc has strengthened. The Swiss franc has appreciated by about 10% against the US dollar since Trump first announced the trade tariffs in April. The Swiss National Bank Observer said that although the Swiss National Bank can help by lowering interest rates or intervening to weaken the currency, both approaches are subject to costs, uncertainties and risks. "Any policy intervention will bring inflation risks and trigger a new round of accusations of exchange rate manipulation," the organization said in a report on Tuesday. "In practice, the Swiss National Bank can hardly effectively alleviate the impact of tariffs without causing other problems."On August 20, local time on the 19th, Belarusian President’s Press Secretary Esmont said that Belarus is willing to organize a meeting between Russian President Putin and Ukrainian President Zelensky.Hang Seng Index futures closed down 0.57% in the night session at 24,977 points, 146 points below the spot price.

Spambots Promote “YouTube” NFTs, Opensea Confirms

The Discord server of NFT marketplace Opensea has been hacked.

Spambots have been spreading links to restricted sites. YouTube Social media channel hacking have been on the increase this year, according to NFTs.

While hacks and attacks are common in the Decentralized Finance field, it's rare for its centralized social media platforms to experience the same.

However, the crypto sector has been seeing the latter over the previous several weeks, with Opensea being the most recent addition to the mix.


Another hack of Opensea!

The NFT marketplace, which is based on Ethereum, reported that their Discord server had been hacked a few hours ago. PeckShieldAlert and Serpent, two accounts related with blockchain security, confirmed the same.

Serpent was the first to submit a snapshot of the Discord channel, where spambots seemed to be posting links to a URL called "yoytubenft.art."

The hackers attempted to entice investors to the phishing website by saying that these NFTs were scarce, with just 100 in existence and over 80% minted out.


PeckShieldAlert shared a snapshot of the same website with a warning about hackers attempting to steal people's private keys by deceiving them into granting them token approval and/or purchasing scam tokens.

"Do not open links in our Discord," said the most recent update from Opensea at the time of writing.

We're still looking into this and will update you as soon as we receive more information."

However, this isn't the first time that Opensea users have been hacked. A phishing assault earlier this year cost Opensea subscribers around $1.7 million in NFTs.

A victim even filed a $1 million lawsuit against the marketplace, alleging that the site continued to operate despite the problems.
