    'Rizz-to-Earn': Flirting With an AI Agent Could Win You a Crypto Airdrop

    Ethereum farming game Pixels is currently offering players the opportunity to earn a token airdrop by flirting with an AI-powered non-player character (NPC)—yes, really. Players have jokingly branded the experience as a “rizz-to-earn” mini-game, in the wake of the popular but fleeting play-to-earn and tap-to-earn game models. Players must load up Pixels and head over to Terra Villa before entering AiVeronica’s castle to purchase a key for 100 PIXEL tokens ($5). You can also buy one from the AiVe...

Looking across the attendees in the hall and speaking to Crypto Fight Night’s founder, it’s clear that this is more than just a night of influencer boxing.

Tokens linked to these companies are hitting market capitalizations in the millions or even tens of millions—despite growing concern that many of their products are “vaporware.” “Internet capital markets is itself a powerful meme, and it’s among the most significant and OG meta-narratives and use cases for crypto,” Alon Cohen, co-founder of Pump.fun, told Decrypt. “In principle, it r...

    $78 Million Lost to ‘Laundering Loophole’ in Tether Freezing Method Since 2017

    There is “significant lag” between exchanges saying they’re going to freeze USDT held by malicious addresses and, well, actually doing it, according to a new report from AMLBot. AMLBot’s report found that on-chain freezing enforcement of Tether’s USDT stablecoin has been sluggish. As a result, the anti-money laundering firm said, at least $78 million has been lost to bad actors on Ethereum and Tron since 2017. The “laundering loophole” is the result of Tether’s multi-signature contract set up, A...

    'Eat Other Snake, Take Their Money': Slither.io Solana Clone Goes Viral

    Crypto degens have found a new game to gamble on, causing a Solana meme coin to surge to a market cap of nearly $20 million as a result. Noodle.gg is a crypto clone of popular free-to-play browser game Slither.io, where players control cartoonish snakes that grow larger with each enemy snake they consume. Noodle’s blockchain twist is that players pay an entry fee in Solana, and then when a player eats another player's snake, they also get their money. If you die, then you lose everything. “This...
