Revolut Exposes Bitcoin Records

Revolut disclosed passports, home addresses and Bitcoin transaction histories after accepting a fraudulent request sent through a government agency’s real email domain. Customer funds and private keys were not reported lost, but the incident shows how identity records can turn a public blockchain trail into a personal security risk.

Also covered: 2 crypto billionaires giving Reform UK approximately $97 million, Ethereum exchange-traded funds gaining while Bitcoin funds lost $462.7 million, Reuters documenting a hidden Mexican mining site under investigation, and non-fungible-token sales rising through highly concentrated Bitcoin trades.

This week’s XRP winners: Andrej Lengel — 10 XRP; Crypto Cowboy — 10 XRP; LA Kings Ellen — 5 XRP; Homeboy — 5 XRP; Moonhead — 5 XRP. Congratulations to all 5 winners.

Listener question: Would you accept slower responses to legitimate law enforcement if every request for identity and cryptocurrency transaction data required independent verification outside email?

Availability and eligibility vary by region. The 20 XRP is supplied by Crypto News Today, not Kraken.
