Cyber experts from Security Discovery and Palo Alto Networks uncovered billions of stolen passwords, and they’re blaming sneaky malware called infostealers.

🚨 Breaking News:
A jaw-dropping 16 billion login credentials were found exposed online, likely stolen using malware that quietly snatches your personal data.

⚡ Wire Simplified:

  • Infostealers are malware that steal passwords, card info, and even browser data.

  • They sneak in through sketchy downloads or fake ads.

  • 30 exposed datasets include Apple, Google, and Facebook accounts.

  • Cybercrime is now "as a Service" — yes, bad guys have subscription plans too.

  • In 2024, infostealer attacks jumped by 58%. Yikes.

✔️ Straight to the Point:
Hackers aren’t breaking in, they’re logging in. Infostealers are today’s online pickpockets, and we’re basically handing over our wallets.

Trump-backed housing policy just made crypto a legit factor in home loans via Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Big shift!

🚨 Breaking News:
The US housing agency now lets crypto be considered in mortgage risk, no need to cash out to qualify.

⚡ Wire Simplified:

  • FHFA wants Fannie and Freddie to accept crypto as part of mortgage evaluation.

  • You don’t need to sell your crypto first.

  • Only applies to assets on US-regulated exchanges (sorry, sketchy altcoins).

  • They’ll account for crypto’s volatility in the risk models.

  • Trump says it’s part of making America the "crypto capital."

✔️ Straight to the Point:
Crypto might help you get a house now, just make sure it’s legit and stored where Uncle Sam can see it.
