This week on the Crypto Weekly Recap, we break down the harsh new reality of digital life: scammers have leveled up, and the attacks hitting everyday users are now psychological, industrial, and in some cases… fully automated. In this episode, U.S. exposes the truth behind modern cybercrime — from AI-driven espionage to deepfakes so convincing they can steal millions in a single call. We cover: • The New Era of Getting Scammed — why emotional manipulation, not malware, is now the number one attack vector. • Warnings from a Reformed Hacker — the three cyber-threats exploding around the world right now. • AI Espionage at Scale — how autonomous agentic systems are now running multi-month hacking operations with almost no human oversight. • Private Key Theft Becoming an Industry — the business model behind seed phrase extraction, cloud scraping, and wallet-draining malware. • The WhatsApp Worm — the viral attack spreading through friend lists and draining financial accounts in minutes. Plus, we spotlight HundredCoin, the project quietly proving that smart design can protect you in ways hype coins never will — especially in an ecosystem where speed is the weapon scammers use most. With insights from a veteran who has survived every major collapse since 2016 — from Quadriga to FTX — this episode gives you the clarity you need to stay ahead, stay protected, and stay standing. If you hold crypto, trade crypto, build in crypto, or even talk about crypto… you cannot afford to miss this one. Stay sharp. Stay aware. And as always — Keep it 💯.
