A hacker is exploiting trust in well-known brands by creating fake cryptocurrency wallet extensions for Google Chrome that trick victims into disclosing sensitive information.Harry Denley, director of security at wallet provider MyCrypto, who identified the fake wallet extensions, said in a report Tuesday that Google has so far removed 49 extensions that purported to be well-known crypto wallets from its Chrome Web Store.
The fake extensions are basic phishing plays. Posing as legitimate wallets, they leak personal information inputted by users, such as private keys and passwords, to the hacker, who can then drain balances in a matter of seconds.
The fakes detected have so far claimed to be wallets such as Ledger, Trezor, Jaxx, Electrum, MyEtherWallet, MetaMask, Exodus, and KeepKey. Test amounts of crypto sent by Denley have not been picked up, suggesting that either the hacker has to manually empty wallets or that they are only interested in comparatively large balances. https://www.coindesk.com/mystery-hacker-tries-to-steal-crypto-through-fake-google-chrome-wallet-extensionsDiscovering Fake Browser Extensions That Target Users of Ledger, Trezor, MEW, Metamask, and Morehttps://medium.com/mycrypto/discovering-fake-browser-extensions-that-target-users-of-ledger-trezor-mew-metamask-and-more-e281a2b80ff9 It's all good. Those who enter private keys and other sensitive information about their Bitcoin into any Chrome extension applet that asks them to, do not deserve to own any BTC. It's the laws of nature at work: Bitcoin (and other objects of value) naturally flows towards the smartest owner. Remember Peter Shiff? “My #Bitcoin mystery is solved. I mistook my pin for my password. When Blockchain updated their app I got logged out. I [tried] logging back in using my pin, which was the only ‘password’ I had ever known or used. I also never had a copy of my seed phrase. Honest but costly mistake!” Yeah, right. Fuck you, Peter. And thanks for distributing the value of your coins evenly to all of us Bitcoin HoDLers... This is fine. HoDL.

It's just a false correctness. Strictly people are dying from heart failure, all sorts of multi-organ failures etc. Viruses just replicate.
So there’s a chance the numbers being reported by the UK Gov on COVID19 deaths are inflated by non COVID19 deaths? Do you think elderly people (I think past the age of 80 don’t require postmortems) who die in hospital of pneumonia or flu type symptoms are being recorded as COVID19 to inflate numbers & maintain a level of fear amongst the general public to ensure lockdown rules are followed? There's a 0.1% chance of that. It's 99.9% likely the covid death numbers have been systematically under-reported unintentionally or negligently. The fear is just a handy byproduct and much exaggerated by people's words, but not by these stats. Hmm... https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/us-virus-numbers-now-include-probable-cases-tests-70170223US virus numbers now include probable cases without tests
The U.S. tally of coronavirus cases and deaths might jump, because federal health officials will now count illnesses that are not confirmed by lab testing https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-usa/new-york-city-posts-sharp-spike-in-coronavirus-deaths-after-untested-victims-added-idUSKCN21W20GNew York City posts sharp spike in coronavirus deaths after untested victims added
WASHINGTON/NEW YORK (Reuters) - New York City, the hardest hit U.S. city in the coronavirus pandemic, revised its official COVID-19 death toll sharply higher to more than 10,000 on Tuesday, to include victims presumed to have perished from the lung disease but never tested.

GreyScale Digital Asset Investment Report Q1 2020First Quarter of 2020 (“1Q20”) Highlights2 • Total Investment into Grayscale Products: $503.7 million • Average Weekly Investment – All Products: $38.7 million • Average Weekly Investment – Grayscale Bitcoin Trust: $29.9 million • Average Weekly Investment – Grayscale Ethereum Trust: $8.5 million • Average Weekly Investment – Grayscale Products ex Bitcoin Trust3 : $8.8 million • Majority of investment (88%) came from institutional investors, dominated by hedge funds.
LINK: https://grayscale.co/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Q1_REPORT_2020.pdfUsual reasoning: USD Greyscale investment: USD 503,700,000 USD Bitcoin Price (Q1 Average): USD 8,273 Greyscale investment in BTC: 60,855 Total BTC Mined during this quarter: 12.5*6*24*30*3=162,000 Greyscale Investment equal to roughly 37% of the new mined BTC. Of course it is naive to think they bough only from new coinbase, rather than addressing the enormous quantity of BTC whales out there sitting on thousands of Bitcoin bought when it was worthless. But alas, it's a huge buying pressure. And don't forget this percentage will double in a little less than a month with the halvening! Alo worth noticing that the fall in market price didn't spur any redemption in the fund, on the contrary, the inflows have been steadily growing!

I am watching for the Western MSM narrative to sour on China in the next weeks, then we will know it is on.
Fox is running with the Wuhan Institute of Virology lab accident angle tonight. So they dropped the "Chinaman fucking a bat" angle? Hm.... what happens in the labs stays in the labs. well, shit I had a friend who said he fucked a bat once. He couldn't walk for a week. #homo

Full report: https://grayscale.co/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Q1_REPORT_2020.pdf Oh, great, now we know who the panic sellers are or would be. /s Here is a day by day or week by week description of financial actions by the governments and CB. https://getpocket.com/explore/item/how-coronavirus-almost-brought-down-the-global-financial-systemA interesting read, but, it is, perhaps, too early to be as self-congratulatory as the author is.

Good morning Bitcoinland. I see we're back up over $7k... currently $7004USD/$9904CAD (Bitcoinaverage). A small step in the right direction. Go Bitcoin go. worldnewsdailyreport is similar to theonion.com both are highly respected sources for news on par with weeklyworldnews
You forgot Fox News. I need to get this crap into bitcoin and by the time I get the money cashed get the credit out of the bank and turn it into money and put into the bitcoin machine it will probably be way high.
