今年最恐怖的加密货币时刻：从黑客攻击到逮捕和市场跳水

尽管 2024 年出现了一些真正令人印象深刻的发展，有助于提高加密货币的认知度和接受度，但与此同时也出现了很多突然的恐慌。

This year has been a rollercoaster ride for crypto enthusiasts, with moments of exhilaration and trepidation alike. As we approach the end of 2024, let's take a look back at some of the scariest moments that gripped the crypto world and sent shivers down the spines of investors.

今年对于加密货币爱好者来说就像坐过山车一样，有兴奋的时刻，也有惶恐的时刻。随着 2024 年接近尾声，让我们回顾一下加密货币世界中一些最可怕的时刻，这些时刻让投资者感到不寒而栗。

1. DMM Bitcoin Hack: In May, DMM Bitcoin, one of the largest centralized exchanges in Japan, fell victim to a devastating crypto hack. The perpetrator swiftly transferred 4502.9 BTC ($308 million) from the exchange, leaving investors reeling from the massive loss. The stolen funds were then dispersed into numerous different wallet addresses in increments of 500 BTC each to conceal their identity.

1. DMM 比特币黑客攻击：5 月份，日本最大的中心化交易所之一 DMM 比特币成为毁灭性加密货币黑客攻击的受害者。犯罪者迅速从交易所转移了 4502.9 BTC（3.08 亿美元），让投资者遭受了巨额损失。然后，被盗资金被分散到多个不同的钱包地址中，每个地址增量为 500 BTC，以隐藏其身份。

2. Pavel Durov Arrest: On August 24, Pavel Durov, the head of the popular messenger platform Telegram, was arrested at Le Bourget airport in France. Telegram is known for its use of encryption to protect user messages from third parties and unwanted onlookers.

2.帕维尔·杜罗夫被捕：8月24日，流行通讯平台Telegram的负责人帕维尔·杜罗夫在法国布尔歇机场被捕。 Telegram 以其使用加密来保护用户消息免受第三方和不受欢迎的旁观者的侵害而闻名。

Durov was charged with facilitating illegal activities and failing to report scammers to authorities. This news sent off an alarm across the crypto industry, as the privacy offered by Telegram is very similar to that found in cryptocurrency through cryptography.

杜罗夫被指控协助非法活动以及未能向当局举报诈骗者。这一消息给整个加密行业敲响了警钟，因为 Telegram 提供的隐私与通过密码学在加密货币中发现的隐私非常相似。

3. Stock Market Dive: The second week of August started on a pretty sour note for crypto investors when it was announced that the global stock market had taken a sudden downturn. Numerous factors contributed to this, including a less-than-satisfactory U.S. job report, a hike in interest rates, Japan’s Nikkei 25 falling in value, and slow growth in the EU and China.

3. 股市跳水：8 月第二周，当全球股市突然低迷的消息传出时，加密货币投资者的心情就变得非常糟糕。造成这种情况的因素有很多，包括美国就业报告不尽如人意、利率上调、日本日经25指数下跌以及欧盟和中国经济增长缓慢。

For a single day, the crypto community was thrown into a frenzy as prices began to plummet, accompanied by mass sell-offs. As the U.S. dollar began to weaken against other fiat currencies, stablecoin holders started to worry about the value and reliability of their tokens. Additionally, Bitcoin declined 8.5%, while Ethereum fell by a staggering 21.8% after the news broke.

一天之内，加密货币社区陷入了疯狂，价格开始暴跌，并伴随着大规模抛售。随着美元兑其他法定货币开始走弱，稳定币持有者开始担心其代币的价值和可靠性。此外，消息传出后，比特币下跌了 8.5%，而以太坊则下跌了 21.8%。

4. WazirX Compromised: On July 18, India’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, WazirX, was hacked, supposedly by the prominent North Korean cyberhacking entity Lazarus Group. This highly sophisticated breach involved breaking into a multi-sig wallet by modifying the required signatures needed to open it and gain access to the funds inside.

4. WazirX 遭到入侵：7 月 18 日，印度最大的加密货币交易所 WazirX 遭到黑客攻击，据称是由著名的朝鲜网络黑客实体 Lazarus Group 发起的。这一高度复杂的漏洞涉及通过修改打开多重签名钱包并获取内部资金所需的签名来闯入多重签名钱包。

5. Biden Vetoes Crypto Custody Bill: President Joe Biden took it upon himself to veto a crucial bill in May that would have allowed highly trusted financial institutions to custody Bitcoin and other cryptos. Biden made it clear early on in his presidency that he would take an anti-crypto stance, but this was an especially surprising and quite worrying development.

5. 拜登否决加密货币托管法案：总统乔·拜登在 5 月份亲自否决了一项重要法案，该法案将允许高度信任的金融机构托管比特币和其他加密货币。拜登在担任总统之初就明确表示，他将采取反加密立场，但这是一个特别令人惊讶和相当令人担忧的事态发展。

6. Ripple vs. SEC Approaches the Deadline: Speaking of the SEC and regulations, 2024 was intended to be the conclusion of the long running Ripple (XRP) vs SEC case with a planned deadline of October. While this has since been moved yet again to 2025, many investors were eagerly awaiting the results. Depending on who wins, the case itself will be instrumental in setting out the regulatory groundwork for crypto.

6. Ripple 诉 SEC 的最后期限临近：说到 SEC 和法规，长期存在的 Ripple (XRP) 诉 SEC 案件预计在 2024 年结束，计划截止日期为 10 月。尽管此后又再次推迟至 2025 年，但许多投资者仍在热切等待结果。根据谁胜诉，该案本身将有助于为加密货币奠定监管基础。

7. Bitcoin Halving: To ensure that Bitcoin doesn’t become inflated and lose its value, there is a Bitcoin halving every four years, which cuts the block rewards awarded to miners by half. By miners, I mean the individuals whose job is to verify incoming transactions entering the blockchain through a process known as mining in exchange for a few extra tokens.

7. 比特币减半：为了确保比特币不会膨胀并失去其价值，比特币每四年减半一次，这会将奖励给矿工的区块奖励减少一半。我所说的矿工，是指那些工作是通过称为挖矿的过程来验证进入区块链的传入交易以换取一些额外代币的个人。

8. Tether Investigation: Only a few days before people could enjoy the Halloween festivities, investors were given an early scare when the Wall Street Journal reported that Tether (USDT) was under investigation. Tether is a stablecoin pegged to the USD currently held by over 300 million investors, making it the most popular of its kind.

8. Tether 调查：就在人们可以享受万圣节庆祝活动的前几天，《华尔街日报》报道 Tether (USDT) 正在接受调查，这让投资者提前感到恐慌。 Tether 是一种与美元挂钩的稳定币，目前有超过 3 亿投资者持有，使其成为同类产品中最受欢迎的。
