3 Risks You’re Facing by Investing In SpaceX - Yahoo Finance

Cryptocurrency trading bots and exchange applications may remain exposed to the eMudhra certificate security flaw despite emergency fixes from major technology companies, according to blockchain security company CertiK. By Tuesday, tech giants including Google, Apple and Microsoft had blocked eight vulnerable certificates issued by India’s eMudhra, but the fixes may not protect crypto applications using separate security systems, CertiK’s senior director of digital assets security, Peiyu Wang, told Cointelegraph. “Major browser blocks substantially reduce the risk for clients that receive and enforce them,” Wang said. “Some applications outside the browser ecosystem do not enforce Certificate Transparency or receive the same revocation protections.”Wang stressed that crypto services are not inherently more susceptible to the flaw than other industries, but attackers could exploit compromised certificates to impersonate the HTTPS connections used by exchanges, wallet interfaces and APIs. Attackers could specifically impersonate crypto services and replace deposit addresses or trick users into approving malicious transactions, Wang said.

After more than $200 million dollars worth of crypto was stolen in recent months from tampered Ledgers, and Coldcards where the seed generated wasn’t truly random, faith in hardware wallets has been shaken to the core. These Bitcoin and crypto holders did everything right. They bought the products from official sources, correctly stored their seed phrases and they trusted in the phrase “not your keys, not your coins”, but they lost out any way. The thefts suggest that even the most diligent crypto holder using a hardware wallet faces risks beyond their control. With the number of physical attacks on crypto holders rising — there’s been a $5 wrench attack in France every 2.5 days this year — the drawbacks of storing crypto on a hardware wallet are becoming clearer. And that’s even before you consider how many crypto owners have lost wallets and seed phrases over the years — “boating accidents” for tax purposes excluded. There are plenty of drawbacks with all of the alternative methods of holding crypto however, so spreading your stack across different addresses and via different methods will at least minimize the damage if any one method is compromised.

EBay EBAY-Q will lay off about 9 per cent of its work force as the online marketplace looks to simplify operations and shift resources to its fastest-growing areas, CEO Jamie Iannone told staff in a memo that was reviewed by Reuters. A spokesperson for eBay confirmed the layoffs to Reuters on Wednesday. The move will eliminate around 1,100 jobs, based on the 12,300 employees eBay had at the end of last year. The company also let go about 6 per cent of its work force, or 800 employees, in February as part of efforts to streamline operations. Qualcomm to cut jobs globally in ‘performance-focused’ layoffs, internal memo showsEBay has set itself apart from rivals by pushing into authenticated luxury goods, collectibles and refurbished products, which draw enthusiasts willing to pay more for valuable items. That has helped its shares rise nearly 40 per cent this year, outperforming the benchmark S&P 500’s around 12 per cent gain. “Our strategy is working,” Iannone said in the memo, adding that “continuing to capture the significant opportunity ahead requires us to make thoughtful choices about where we focus and invest.”He said affected staff would be informed in the coming days.

SuppliedLesley Davidson is the president and chief executive officer at the YMCA of Greater TorontoRecently, I watched a group of YMCA members linger in the hall after a fitness class ended. The workout was over but the conversations were just beginning. People swapped stories about their week, laughed about a misstep during class and checked in about their families. What struck me wasn’t simply their participation in the program. It was the connection that happened afterward. In a world where we can connect with almost anyone instantly electronically, opportunities for genuine in-person human connection can feel increasingly rare. And it’s not just affecting hybrid workers who lost access to their daily impromptu “water cooler” conversations. Our second annual YMCA Connections Snapshot showed only three in 10 Canadians say they feel a sense of belonging or connection. In-person connection remains incredibly important for everyone. It contributes to well-being and that’s not just good for individuals but the organizations they work for as well.

The person shouted something that could not be heard on the company’s livestream about 20 minutes into the address, before being removed from the auditorium.
