Elon Musk has alleged that around one terabyte of U.S. government financial data was deliberately deleted, with those responsible allegedly believing it could never be recovered. That single claim has triggered intense debate across tech, political, and financial circles.
In the digital age, deletion does not always mean disappearance. Data often survives through backups, server mirrors, access logs, and metadata. Digital forensics can reconstruct timelines, identify users, and even expose intent. If recovery is possible, the attempt to erase records could itself become a critical piece of evidence.
Musk’s words carry weight because of his background. He runs companies that manage massive datasets, understands complex data infrastructure, and has firsthand experience working with government systems. While the claim remains unproven, it has not gone unnoticed.
Speculation around the contents of the data ranges from government spending records to financial compliance and contractor transactions. If verified, the implications could include investigations, oversight hearings, and renewed calls for transparency.
For the crypto world, this moment reinforces a familiar lesson: centralized systems depend on trust, while blockchains depend on verification. Immutable ledgers were built to prevent exactly this kind of uncertainty.

Date of Incident: 09 January 2026
I am sharing this incident in detail to raise awareness within the crypto community. What happened to me can happen to anyone, especially during live sessions and multitasking.
📍 Location & Situation
At the time of the incident, I was present at Twin Tulips and hosting a live session on Binance Square. Alongside the live session, I was also involved in an important meeting on my mobile phone, which divided my attention.
🔐 Events Leading Up to the Hack
Two days before the incident:
• My Gmail account was compromised
• Using access to my email, the attacker attempted and later succeeded in accessing my Binance account
• I immediately:
• Informed my Binance BDM
• Contacted Binance Customer Support
• My Binance account already had 2FA enabled
🎥 Live Session & Co-Host Involvement
During the Binance Square live session:
• I noticed unusual behavior on my account
• I informed my co-host and clearly told them:
“Please manage the live session, I need to focus on an urgent meeting on my mobile.”
• While my co-host was handling the live session, I became fully engaged in the meeting on my phone
🚨 Account Logout & Suspicious Activity
While I was distracted with the meeting:
• My Binance account logged out automatically
• I was not actively monitoring the account due to the meeting and live session running simultaneously
When I returned:
• I attempted to log in again
• A QR code appeared on the screen with a message indicating that I had been logged out and needed to scan the QR code to re-login
📱 QR Code Exploit
As soon as I:
• Scanned the QR code
• My screen began to freeze and lag
• The account logged out again
• Immediately after, the account logged back in automatically
At that moment:
• The attacker withdrew $831 from my Spot Wallet
💸 Financial Impact
• Total loss: $831
• Fortunately:
• No additional funds were available in the Spot Wallet
• Funds in the Earnings section remained untouched
• Either the attacker could not access those funds or failed to withdraw them

📞 Reporting & Follow-Up
After identifying the unauthorized withdrawal:
• I contacted Binance Customer Support immediately

• Submitted a complete report, including:
• Timeline of events
• Screenshots
• Live session context
• The case was forwarded for internal investigation
⚠️ Key Security Lessons
This incident highlights several critical lessons for all crypto users:
✅ Never underestimate email security
✅ Avoid scanning any QR code during high-pressure situations like live sessions
✅ Multitasking during live crypto events can increase risk
✅ Always assign a trusted co-host and stay alert during live sessions
✅ Immediately inform CS and BDM if any suspicious activity occurs
📢 Final Note to the Community
I am sharing this experience purely for community awareness. In crypto, even a few minutes of distraction can lead to irreversible loss.
Please stay alert, secure your email first, and never ignore unusual behavior on your account.

Reports indicate that Joshua , the founder of Triblu, has proposed a bold possibility: XRP holders could potentially become millionaires, billionaires, or even trillionaires if the token were integrated into a US strategic crypto reserve.

XRP, due to its association with a US-based company, is a more secure candidate for a national reserve compared to Bitcoin. This assertion has sparked interest in certain segments of the crypto community, though it also encounters significant legal and market hurdles.

Reports indicate the US national debt hovers around $38 trillion. Ripple's escrow currently contains approximately 34.4 billion XRP. Given these numbers, Dalton and others estimate that an XRP price of roughly $883 would be necessary to cover approximately 80% of that debt.

XRP is currently trading at approximately $1.91. This would represent an increase of over 46,000% for the token. In contrast, Bitcoin is trading near $89,000 and would need to reach roughly $30 million per coin to achieve a similar debt-offset objective, assuming a focus on 1 million BTC, a concept previously proposed by US Senator Cynthia Lummis. This would represent a gain exceeding 33,000% from present levels.

Ripple's escrow is, crucially, privately managed and bound by contracts. A government can't simply seize it; they'd need legal grounds, and probably a protracted legal battle. Even if US authorities somehow acquired a significant amount of XRP, flooding the global markets with it would probably depress the price, not inflate it. Markets aren't designed to handle trillions of dollars without significant disruption.

Holders And Wealth Scenarios

According to wallet data, certain XRP addresses would experience substantial nominal gains at a $880 price point. Consider this: a holder with 10,000 XRP, currently valued at roughly $19,100, could see their holdings swell to almost $9 million on paper.

A total of 179,546 wallets currently contain between 5,000 and 10,000 XRP. Roughly 2,006 addresses are in the 500,000 to 1 million XRP range. However, the majority of the most substantial reserves are concentrated within Ripple, its founders, or various exchanges. Just 20 wallets possess between 500 million and 1 billion XRP, and a mere six addresses hold over 1 billion XRP.

Matthew Sigel, VanEck's lead researcher, has publicly championed Bitcoin as the most promising option for significant fiscal applications, though some analysts are still doubtful about any single cryptocurrency being the solution to national debt.

Coach JV and others have begun to focus on 2026, suggesting it could be a pivotal year for XRP's price, presenting the outlook as both speculative and time-sensitive. These perspectives are largely driven by sentiment and depend on elements outside of government policy, including market demand and regulatory developments.

SUI has finally broken out from its extended downtrend, showing a clean breakout above the descending structure. Price is now retesting the previous rejection zone, which has flipped into an important support area after the breakout.

If this retest holds, the chart suggests a potential continuation toward the next major resistance zone. The structure is showing early signs of a bullish reversal, with momentum beginning to shift to the upside.

For now, the key focus is how price reacts at this reclaimed zone — a strong confirmation here could open the path for a larger move upward.
