June 17, Swissquote market strategist Ipek Ozkadzia said that efforts to ease tensions in the Middle East appear to be one-sided. While Iran appears to be signaling restraint, Trump urges Iran to withdraw and Israel vows to continue attacks. This is a one-sided downgrade at best and tilts the risk of energy markets and safe-haven assets to the upside. Global energy supplies remain fragile and it doesnt take much to shake the physical flow of oil and reverse market sentiment in an instant.World Gold Council: The survey shows that 73% of the central banks surveyed believe that the share of the US dollar in global reserves will "decline moderately" or "decline significantly" in the next five years.Ukrainian President Zelensky: Russia launched more than 440 drones and 32 missiles in overnight attacks.On June 17, Capital Economics analyst Marcel Thieliant said that the Bank of Japan revealed little about its interest rate outlook at its latest meeting. As widely expected by the market, the Bank of Japan kept its policy rate unchanged at 0.5% and decided to reduce its purchases of Japanese government bonds from April 2026. This is expected to cause the share of outstanding Japanese government bonds held by the Bank of Japan to fall from 50% now to 42% by March 2027. Thieliant pointed out that the Bank of Japans assessment of economic conditions and outlook wording have hardly changed from April.

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.
