PANews reported on March 11 that, according to a security alert issued by GoPlus, attackers are using Google search ads to deliver malware that is a pixel-perfect clone of the official #Claude Code installation page. This malware steals user passwords, cookies, session tokens, Crypto wallets, credentials, and system information. GoPlus recommends identifying ad icons in search results and carefully verifying subtle differences between the URL and the official website; verifying installation methods through multiple channels such as official documentation, social media, or GitHub repositories; not executing unfamiliar commands directly, but analyzing command line behavior before running them; and installing security plugins to block phishing links, risky signatures, authorizations, and transactions in real time.

The UK and US are reportedly preparing to deepen cooperation on digital assets, with Britain looking to copy the Trump administration’s crypto-friendly stance in a bid to boost innovation. UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discussed on Tuesday how the two nations could strengthen their coordination on crypto, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter. The discussions also involved representatives from crypto companies, including Coinbase, Circle Internet Group and Ripple, with executives from the Bank of America, Barclays and Citi also attending, according to the report. The agreement was made “last-minute” after crypto advocacy groups urged the UK government on Thursday to adopt a more open stance toward the industry, claiming its cautious approach to the sector has left the country lagging in innovation and policy.

The Financial Times reported on Monday that UK crypto advocacy groups also slammed the Bank of England’s proposal to limit individual stablecoin holdings to between 10,000 British pounds ($13,650) and 20,000 pounds ($27,300), claiming it would be difficult and expensive to implement. UK banks appear to have slowed adoption too, with around 40% of 2,000 recently surveyed crypto investors saying that their banks had either blocked or delayed a payment to a crypto provider.
