ChainCatcher news, according to businesswire, Marygold Companies, a company listed on NYSE American under the New York Stock Exchange, announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary USCF Investments has launched the USCF Oil Plus Bitcoin Strategy Fund (WTIB), aiming to track the market performance of crude oil and bitcoin by investing in futures contracts and collective investment vehicles.

According to ChainCatcher, citing a report from Lianhe Zaobao, Singaporean professional angel investor Mark Koh fell victim to a phishing scam while testing an online game, resulting in the loss of at least 100,000 SGD worth of cryptocurrency assets. Mark Koh is an early investor in the blockchain platform Polygon and has been following the Web3 sector since 2017. On December 5, he saw a test post about the game project "MetaToy" in a Telegram group. A user named Shanni, claiming to be the "Meta team co-founder," contacted him and requested that he download the game launcher. After downloading, malware stole his crypto wallet data. Despite Mark Koh performing a full system scan and reinstalling the system, multiple browser extension wallets connected to his browser were still emptied 24 hours later. He suspects that the scammers used the name of a real game project to implant malware on a fake website. It is reported that Mark Koh is the co-founder of "RektSurvivor," an organization dedicated to assisting cryptocurrency victims, but has now become a victim himself. He reported the incident to the police on the 12th and reminded the public not to download software from unknown sources and to avoid sharing mnemonic phrases and two-factor authentication information.
