Market Signal Briefing

XRP price extended losses and traded below $1.920. The price is now consolidating and might decline further if it remains below $1.980.

XRP price started a fresh decline below the $1.920 zone. The price is now trading below $1.9250 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There are two bearish trend lines forming with resistance at $1.95 and $2.00 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair could continue to move down if it stays below $1.950. XRP Price Dips Again XRP price failed to stay above $2.00 and started a fresh decline, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price declined below $1.950 and $1.9350 to enter a short-term bearish zone.

The price even spiked below $1.920. A low was formed at $1.90, and the price is now consolidating losses. There was a recovery wave above $1.9120. The price cleared the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $1.987 swing high to the $1.90 low, but the bears remained active.

The price is now trading below $1.950 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $1.9450 level and the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $1.987 swing high to the $1.90 low. There are also two bearish trend lines forming with resistance at $1.95 and $2.00 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair.

TLDR:

The token sale event will officially conclude at 20:00 UTC on January 24. Assets will be available and fully unlocked for users on February 2. The auction utilizes Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) to prevent front-running and ensure fairness. The recent update to the blockchain privacy ecosystem has placed the spotlight on the Zama Protocol token sale, an event that promises to redefine confidentiality standards in on-chain auctions.

Zama Protocol confirmed that the final stage of its distribution event will conclude on January 24. Unlike other launches, the protocol has opted for a Dutch auction format that leverages its advanced technology to ensure a fair market valuation.

Additionally, the company announced that token claims on the CoinList platform began on January 21, paving the way for the final delivery. This process is fundamental to the company’s vision, which seeks to integrate private computing directly into decentralized finance infrastructure.

Impact of the mass unlock and FHE technology on the market The distribution strategy has generated diverse opinions among participants, especially due to the full unlock policy scheduled for February 2. On one hand, this offers immediate liquidity to investors; however, it also opens the door to significant volatility by drastically increasing the circulating supply in a short period.

Currently, ZAMA is trading around $0.06, reflecting a market capitalization of $140.25 million after facing a bearish trend in recent months. Consequently, analysts suggest that long-term success will depend on the adoption of its privacy infrastructure and the stability it can maintain after the release of 2.2 billion tokens.

In the coming days, both Ethereum wallets and exchange activity will be on the radar once the supply is fully distributed. Ultimately, Zama’s ability to transform computational privacy into an industrial standard will determine whether this launch manages to reverse the recent decline in its valuation.

The pullback comes as XRP continues to trade without a fresh headline catalyst, leaving price action largely driven by positioning and technical levels.

These stocks can help investors capitalize on disruptive trends and make them richer in the long run.

The U.S. stock market has been in bull territory for more than three years now. The S&P 500 index has gained an impressive 94% since the ongoing bull market started on Oct. 12, 2022, and the index is likely to head higher in 2026.

Deutsche Bank, for instance, sees the S&P 500 reaching 8,000 by year-end, a potential 15% jump from current levels. Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs is anticipating a 12% rally in the S&P 500 index this year. Investors can therefore consider putting their investible cash into the stock market now, as the impending rally could help them get richer in 2026 and beyond.

If you have $1,000 in investible cash after meeting your expenses, clearing high-interest debt, and saving enough money for tough times, consider allocating that money to the following stocks based on your risk profile. In my opinion, these names seem like solid bets to capitalize on the broader stock market rally this year and in the long run.

Image source: Micron Technology.

This growth stock can help investors benefit from a disruptive technology Quantum computing is a nascent technology right now, but it is expected to grow by leaps and bounds in the long run, as it could outperform traditional computers exponentially. McKinsey predicts that the quantum computing market's revenue could jump from $4 billion in 2024 to a whopping $72 billion in 2035.

IonQ (IONQ +2.07%) is one way to tap this potentially lucrative opportunity. The company is in the business of designing and manufacturing quantum computers, and it also provides quantum computing services through major cloud service providers. Though it's very small right now, IonQ has been growing at an incredible pace.

Its revenue in the first nine months of 2025 more than doubled year over year to $68 million, with Q3 revenue alone increasing by a whopping 222%. IonQ has been focused on enhancing the accuracy of its quantum computing systems. The company reported in October last year that it achieved a world record 99.99% two-qubit gate performance, a metric that measures the accuracy of a quantum computing system.

This achievement is impressive, as a 99.99% fidelity suggests that its quantum computing system is almost error-free, pushing the technology toward mainstream adoption. As a result, IonQ's quantum computers are likely to be more accurate and cost-effective. IonQ claims that its cost per system is 30x lower than that of rival offerings.

So, investors looking for a growth stock to add to their portfolios could consider allocating some of their $1,000 corpus toward IonQ. However, the stock is expensive right now, trading at 158 times sales, and is prone to volatility. But then, investing a small amount of money in this stock may pay off in the long run, given its remarkable growth and the prospects of the quantum computing market.

AI infrastructure spending makes these stocks a no-brainer buy Artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure stocks have been solid bets for investors in recent years, which isn't surprising given the huge spending in this sector. Gartner anticipates a 41% spike in AI infrastructure spend in 2026 to $1.4 trillion.

That's why it would be a good idea to buy shares of Celestica (CLS 6.08%), a company providing design, engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain management solutions to several industries. The connectivity and cloud solutions business is one of Celestica's key segments, which is benefiting from the enormous investments in AI infrastructure.

Specifically, Celestica is designing and manufacturing networking components that go into AI accelerator chips manufactured by companies like Broadcom, Marvell Technology, AMD, and Intel. Additionally, it develops and builds rack-scale networking solutions for hyperscalers deploying AI data centers. So, it is easy to see why Celestica's revenue jumped by an estimated 27% in 2025 to $12.2 billion. Importantly, the forecast for the next couple of years points toward an acceleration.

CLS Revenue Estimates for Current Fiscal Year data by YCharts

With the stock trading at just 3.2 times sales, buying Celestica is a no-brainer right now with your investible cash, as its accelerating growth could lead to significant gains on the stock market.

Meanwhile, Micron Technology (MU +2.18%) is another top AI stock that you can buy right now at attractive levels. It is trading at less than 10 times sales despite clocking stunning growth.

MU Revenue (Quarterly) data by YCharts

Even the forward earnings multiple of 11 is quite cheap. Consider that Micron's earnings could jump by nearly 4x in the ongoing fiscal year on the back of a 100% increase in sales. Importantly, the key factor driving Micron's red-hot growth is sustainable, as there is a shortage of memory chips used in AI data centers, smartphones, computers, and other applications.

Memory chip prices have taken off as demand has been outpacing supply, a trend that's likely to continue through 2028. Though Micron and other memory chipmakers are bringing online more capacity, adding new facilities takes time. This unavoidable delay could lead to persistently higher memory prices in the future, especially given the strong demand for high-bandwidth memory in AI data centers.

So, Micron looks like an unmissable value stock you may want to buy right now, as it can fly higher following its 243% gains over the past year, primarily driven by favorable memory market dynamics and its attractive valuation.

NEW YORK, Jan. 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of F5, Inc. (NASDAQ: FFIV) between October 28, 2024 and October 27, 2025, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important February 17, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased F5 securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the F5 class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=46672 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than February 17, 2026. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved, at that time, the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period created the false impression that they possessed reliable information pertaining to F5’s projected revenue outlook and anticipated growth while also minimizing risk from seasonality and macroeconomic fluctuations. In truth, F5’s optimistic claims, touting its purported best-in-industry security and overall emphasis and confidence in F5’s ability to meet and capitalize on the growing security needs for its clientele fell short of reality; F5 was, at the time, the subject of a significant security incident, placing its clientele’s security and F5’s future prospects at significant risk. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

The US and China have signed off on a deal for TikTok's Chinese owner to hand over the company's American division to investors backed by Donald Trump.

It means the US version of TikTok will become majority-owned by a group of investors that includes American tech giant Oracle, California-based private equity fund Silver Lake, and United Arab Emirates investment firm MGX.

The deal will ensure the video platform can continue operating in the US and comes just ahead of a takeover deadline set by the Trump administration that was extended several times.

Image: Oracle is one of the US firms believed to be involved. Pic: Reuters In a December memo, TikTok said ByteDance - the social media app's Chinese owner - will retain a 19.9% stake in US operations.

Reuters reports that Silver Lake, Oracle and MGX will each be managing investors with 15% stake each, with Adam Presser serving as the joint venture's chief.

The decision will end years of uncertainty over the app's future in the States, after Joe Biden signed a law in 2024 that required TikTok's Chinese owners to sell up - or else it would be blocked.

The law was introduced amid concerns from some US politicians that ByteDance might share user data with the Chinese government, despite repeated assurances from the firm that it would not.

Critics also expressed fears that Chinese authorities may be able to manipulate TikTok's algorithms and shape what content users see and are influenced by.

This claim was also denied.

Zelenskyy criticises Europe ahead of trilateral peace talks

Despite those concerns, Americans make up TikTok's largest user and creator bases, with more than 150 million active users in the country.

In 2024, Trump voiced his opposition to a ban on the platform, despite having signed an executive order during his first term which would effectively ban the app.

The deal comes as multiple countries around the world - including the UK - are considering a potential Australian-style ban on social media use for under-16s.

, /PRNewswire/ - International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. (the "Company") - (TSX: ITH) (NYSE American: THM) today announced the pricing and upsizing of its previously announced public offering of 29,280,000 common shares, no par value, of the Company (the "Common Shares") in the United States (the "Offering") at a price to the public of US$2.22 per Common Share. In connection with the Offering, Paulson & Co. Inc. has entered into an agreement to purchase US$40 million of Common Shares in a private placement (the "Concurrent Private Placement") at the public offering price of the Offering.

The gross proceeds to the Company from the Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement, before deducting commissions and expenses and other expenses, will be approximately US$105 million.

The Company expects to use the net proceeds of the Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement to fund the exploration and development of the Livengood Gold Project, including drilling, metallurgical studies, feasibility studies, technical studies, baseline environmental studies, detailed engineering in support of permitting, permitting, legal support, community engagement, mineral lease and land payments, acquisitions and general corporate purposes.

The Common Shares will be offered by the Company with BMO Capital Markets acting as lead book-running manager and National Bank of Canada Capital Markets, RBC Capital Markets, Cantor and Scotiabank acting as book-running managers (collectively, the "Underwriters").

The Company has granted the Underwriters an option (the "Option") to purchase up to an additional 4,392,000 Common Shares representing up to 15% of the number of Common Shares to be sold pursuant to the Offering. The Underwriters will have 30 days from the date of the underwriting agreement to exercise the Option, which if exercised, would result in total gross proceeds to the Company of approximately US$115 million.

The Offering is expected to close on or about January 27, 2026.

For the quarter ended December 2025, Intuitive Surgical, Inc. (ISRG - Free Report) reported revenue of $2.87 billion, up 18.8% over the same period last year. EPS came in at $2.53, compared to $2.21 in the year-ago quarter.

The reported revenue compares to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.87 billion, representing no surprise. The company delivered an EPS surprise of +12.61%, with the consensus EPS estimate being $2.25.

While investors scrutinize revenue and earnings changes year-over-year and how they compare with Wall Street expectations to determine their next move, some key metrics always offer a more accurate picture of a company's financial health.

As these metrics influence top- and bottom-line performance, comparing them to the year-ago numbers and what analysts estimated helps investors project a stock's price performance more accurately.

Here is how Intuitive Surgical performed in the just reported quarter in terms of the metrics most widely monitored and projected by Wall Street analysts:

Da Vinci Surgical System Installed Base: 11,106 versus the five-analyst average estimate of 11,088.Revenue- Product (Instruments and accessories and Systems): $1.66 billion versus the seven-analyst average estimate of $2.31 billion. The reported number represents a year-over-year change of -19.7%.Revenue- Services: $422 million versus $404.99 million estimated by seven analysts on average. Compared to the year-ago quarter, this number represents a +21.5% change.Revenue- Systems: $785.9 million versus the seven-analyst average estimate of $670.95 million. The reported number represents a year-over-year change of +20.1%.View all Key Company Metrics for Intuitive Surgical here>>>

Shares of Intuitive Surgical have returned -9.3% over the past month versus the Zacks S&P 500 composite's +0.7% change. The stock currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), indicating that it could perform in line with the broader market in the near term.

Eastern Bankshares, Inc. (EBC - Free Report) reported $283.5 million in revenue for the quarter ended December 2025, representing a year-over-year increase of 25.6%. EPS of $0.44 for the same period compares to $0.34 a year ago.

The reported revenue represents a surprise of +0.39% over the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $282.41 million. With the consensus EPS estimate being $0.41, the EPS surprise was +7.32%.

While investors closely watch year-over-year changes in headline numbers -- revenue and earnings -- and how they compare to Wall Street expectations to determine their next course of action, some key metrics always provide a better insight into a company's underlying performance.

As these metrics influence top- and bottom-line performance, comparing them to the year-ago numbers and what analysts estimated helps investors project a stock's price performance more accurately.

Here is how Eastern Bankshares performed in the just reported quarter in terms of the metrics most widely monitored and projected by Wall Street analysts:

Efficiency ratio (GAAP): 66.8% compared to the 59.2% average estimate based on three analysts.Net Interest Margin: 3.6% versus the three-analyst average estimate of 3.5%.Average Balance - Total interest-earning assets: $26.74 billion versus the two-analyst average estimate of $27.39 billion.Net Interest Income: $237.4 million compared to the $235.79 million average estimate based on three analysts.Total Noninterest Income: $46.1 million compared to the $45.92 million average estimate based on three analysts.Service charges on deposit accounts: $9.9 million compared to the $12.99 million average estimate based on two analysts.Other: $-0.7 million versus the two-analyst average estimate of $5.03 million.Interest rate swap income: $1.4 million versus $0.92 million estimated by two analysts on average.Card Income: $5.9 million compared to the $4.82 million average estimate based on two analysts.Investment advisory fees: $18.6 million versus $18.02 million estimated by two analysts on average.View all Key Company Metrics for Eastern Bankshares here>>>

Shares of Eastern Bankshares have returned +8% over the past month versus the Zacks S&P 500 composite's +0.7% change. The stock currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), indicating that it could perform in line with the broader market in the near term.

Lucid is ramping up EV production, but that may not be enough for it to keep pace with the rest of the auto industry.

Lucid (LCID +0.00%) is something of an "also-ran" stock. It came public after Tesla (TSLA +4.08%) basically created the electric vehicle (EV) market. This is a frequent trend on Wall Street, so it's hard to blame Lucid for striking while the iron was hot. However, that doesn't mean that it's a good EV option for investors. Here's what you need to know before you consider buying Lucid.

The Wall Street pile-on When a new trend, technology, or fad comes along, there's usually a company at the center that's making huge news. Often, the company is also making huge profits. Wall Street sees the interest and goes to work, trying to find ways to sate the desire among investors for a way to invest in the hot theme.

At the turn of the century, companies were talking about their dot-com bona fides. Technology initial public offerings (IPOs) frequently skyrocketed on the first day of trading. Companies are eager to be involved because it allows them to quickly and easily raise money in the capital markets. Since the dot-com era, companies have increasingly gone public while they were still in the start-up phase of their development.

That's basically what Lucid has done. It held its IPO when investors were enamored of electric car companies, following Tesla's success. At the time, Lucid was still a money-losing business trying to get its first vehicles on the road. Lucid has achieved significant milestones since then, but it's still a money-losing business, and only more aggressive investors should buy it.

Lucid is quickly ramping up production Lucid makes award-winning vehicles, and its battery technology is industry-leading. There are very notable positives to point to as the company looks to break into the highly competitive auto sector. However, the EV landscape has changed dramatically since Tesla used the same technology to become one of the most important automakers in the world.

At this point, every major auto company has EVs in its lineup, and there are several large EV companies, like Tesla, in the niche as well. It's much harder to differentiate from the pack. In other words, Lucid has an uphill climb ahead of it.

That's complicated by the fact that Lucid's production is very low. Even though Lucid's production increased roughly 100% year over year in 2025, it still only made around 18,000 vehicles. That's an impressive increase percentage-wise, but Tesla produced 1.65 million EVs in 2025. Lucid's production is a rounding error compared to that.

Worryingly, Lucid recently enacted a reverse stock split. That's something companies normally do when they're at risk of being delisted from a stock exchange. Being delisted is very bad for a business because it limits a company's ability to tap the capital markets for cash. Given that money-losing Lucid is still making huge capital investments in its business, it continues to need access to capital even as the stock keeps heading lower and lower.

When you step back and look at the big picture, Lucid is very clearly a high-risk investment. Despite the successes the company has had, it isn't at all clear that it can build a business that can compete with its larger auto peers.

Best kept on the watchlist If Lucid can keep hitting key milestones, including on both the production and product development fronts, it could be a big winner for investors. However, the risk-versus-reward balance is still weighted toward risk. For all but the most aggressive growth investors, it's probably best to wait for Lucid to hit additional development milestones before you consider buying it.

New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - January 22, 2026) - WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, continues to investigate potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. (NASDAQ: TNDM) resulting from allegations that Tandem Diabetes Care may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.

Rosen Law Firm has achieved, at that time, the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company.

NEW YORK, Jan. 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of DeFi Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: DEFT) between May 12, 2025 and November 14, 2025, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important January 30, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased DeFi Technologies securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the DeFi Technologies class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=48771 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than January 30, 2026. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved, at that time, the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) DeFi Technologies was facing delays in executing its DeFi arbitrage strategy, which at all relevant times was a key revenue driver for DeFi Technologies; (2) DeFi Technologies had understated the extent of competition it faced from other digital asset treasury (“DAT”) companies and the extent to which that competition would negatively impact its ability to execute its DeFi arbitrage strategy; (3) as a result of the foregoing issues, DeFi Technologies was unlikely to meet its previously issued revenue guidance for the fiscal year 2025; (4) accordingly, defendants had downplayed the true scope and severity of the negative impact that the foregoing issues were having on DeFi Technologies’ business and financial results; and (5) as a result, defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the DeFi Technologies class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=48771 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Microsoft hasn't announced an expected time when everything will be back up and running.

You can follow the official Microsoft 365 Status account on the social-media platform X, which has been regularly posting updates about the outage.

The first post there, from 11:37 a.m. PT, said that the company was "investigating a potential issue impacting multiple Microsoft 365 services, including Outlook, Microsoft Defender and Microsoft Purview. Further information can be found in the admin center under MO1221364."

You can also monitor Microsoft's Service Health Status page. That page is noting that "users may be seeing degraded service functionality or be unable to access multiple Microsoft 365 services."

Thank you, and good day, everyone. I'm joined today by William Oplinger, Alcoa Corporation President and Chief Executive Officer; and Molly Beerman, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. We will take your questions after comments by Bill and Molly.

As a reminder, today's discussion will contain forward-looking statements relating to future events and expectations that are subject to various assumptions and caveats.

Gwangju District Prosecutors' Office discovered a significant loss of seized Bitcoin during a routine asset inspection last year.Prosecutors reportedly fell victim to a scam website while checking custody status, potentially exposing critical private keys.The incident raises urgent questions about law enforcement cryptocurrency custody protocols and proper digital asset security measures.South Korea’s Gwangju District Prosecutors’ Office has lost a significant amount of Bitcoin that was seized during a criminal investigation, according to multiple local media reports on Jan. 22.

The case highlights a critical gap in how law enforcement agencies handle digital asset custody.

Phishing Attack SuspectedThe prosecutors’ office recently discovered that Bitcoin held in custody had disappeared. The loss is believed to have occurred around mid-2025. Investigators suspect the office fell victim to a phishing attack after accidentally accessing a scam website during a routine inspection of seized assets.

The prosecutors have declined to confirm the exact amount lost. However, sources suggest the figure could reach tens of millions of dollars. One prosecution official told local media that internal estimates put the loss at approximately 70 billion won ($48 million).

“We are conducting an investigation to track the circumstances of the loss and the whereabouts of the assets,” a prosecution official said, declining to provide further details.

Questions Surrounding Crypto Custody ProtocolsThe incident raises fundamental questions about how law enforcement agencies handle seized cryptocurrency.

The first concern is whether the prosecutors followed proper seizure procedures. If prosecutors simply confiscated a USB device containing wallet information without transferring the Bitcoin to a separate custody wallet, the original owner could potentially withdraw the assets using a backup private key stored elsewhere. In such cases, the seizure would be incomplete from the start.

The wallet creation environment also matters. If a new custody wallet was created on an internet-connected computer, the private keys may have been exposed from the moment of generation. Standard security practice requires creating wallets in an air-gapped environment, completely isolated from any network connection.

Private key storage presents another vulnerability. Keeping keys on network-connected devices or cloud storage creates significant hacking risks. The proper approach involves recording keys on physical media, such as paper, and storing them in a location completely disconnected from the internet.

Access control is equally critical. Private keys can be copied in seconds if someone gains even brief access. The fact that officials reportedly accessed a scam website during a routine check suggests gaps in internal security training and access management protocols.

Broader Implications for Law EnforcementThis case highlights a growing challenge for authorities worldwide. As cryptocurrencies become increasingly involved in criminal cases, law enforcement agencies must develop robust custody solutions that meet the security standards for the assets they handle.

Traditional evidence storage protocols do not translate directly to digital assets. Unlike physical evidence locked in a secure room, cryptocurrency requires active security measures to prevent unauthorized transfers.

The Korean prosecutors’ office has not disclosed whether it followed established cryptocurrency custody guidelines or what security measures were in place. The ongoing investigation may reveal systemic vulnerabilities that extend beyond this single incident.

For now, the case serves as a cautionary example of what can go wrong when conventional institutions handle unconventional assets without adequate preparation.
