PANews reported on December 29th that, according to Cointelegraph, French gaming giant Ubisoft was forced to suspend the online services of Rainbow Six Siege after a hacker exploited the vulnerability, distributing 2 billion R6 credits (in-game currency) to every player. On December 27th, the game team first confirmed the exploit through the X platform, subsequently releasing a series of updates and suspending game servers and the trading market the following day.

Reports from players on social media indicate that hackers gained control of key parts of the game's online system. Players claim that upon logging in, everyone received 2 billion R6 points, along with rare items such as skins and weapons. Screenshots shared by players also show that the hackers controlled the game's messaging and banning systems. The game sells 15,000 R6 points for $99.99 each, meaning players would need to spend approximately $13.33 million to accumulate 2 billion R6 points. On December 28th, the Rainbow Six Siege team announced on the X platform that they were working to revert R6 points earned after 11 AM UTC. The game is currently being tested with a small number of players in preparation for a relaunch.

‘Groundbreaking’: Barry Silbert Reacts to Approval of ETF with XRP Exposure

‘Groundbreaking’: Barry Silbert Reacts to Approval of ETF with XRP Exposure

The post ‘Groundbreaking’: Barry Silbert Reacts to Approval of ETF with XRP Exposure appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A “combo” ETF  Crypto ETF trailblazer  Digital Currency Group founder Barry Silbert has reacted to the approval of the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund  (GDLC), the very first multi-crypto exchange-traded fund (ETF), describing it as “groundbreaking.”  “Grayscale continues to be the first mover, driving new product innovations that bridge tradfi and digital assets,” Silbert said while commenting on the news.  Peter Mintzberg, chief executive officer at Graysacle, claims that the team behind the world’s leading cryptocurrency asset manager is working “expeditiously” in order to bring the product to the market.  A “combo” ETF  The ETF in question offers exposure to Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), as well as several other major altcoins, including the Ripple-linked XRP token, Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA). XRP, for instance, has a 5.2% share of the fund, making it the third-largest constituent.  The fund initially debuted as a private placement for accredited investors back in early 2018, and its shares later became available on over-the-counter (OTC) markets.  In early July, the SEC approved the conversion of GDLC into an ETF, but it was then abruptly halted for a “review” shortly after this.  As of Sept. 17, the fund currently has a total of $915.6 million in assets.  Crypto ETF trailblazer  It is worth noting that Grayscale is usually credited with kickstarting the cryptocurrency ETF craze by winning its court case against the SEC.  The SEC ended up approving Bitcoin ETFs in early 2024 and then followed up with Ethereum ETFs.  Grayscale’s flagship GBTC currently boasts more than $20.5 billion in net assets, according to data provided by SoSoValue.  Source: https://u.today/groundbreaking-barry-silbert-reacts-to-approval-of-etf-with-xrp-exposure
