Apple Sued Over Alleged $1.8M Losses Linked to Bitcoin Wallet App
Apple is being sued by three customers who allege they suffered a combined loss of about $1.8 million after installing a fraudulent “Bitcoin wallet” app from the App Store. The lawsuit, filed Friday in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, claims Apple failed to properly review and monitor applications even as it markets the App Store as a trusted marketplace.
According to the complaint, the victims entered their Bitcoin seed phrases into the fake wallet, enabling scammers to move funds. The plaintiffs say their losses occurred during 2025, with reported losses of approximately $875,000, $840,000, and $120,000 across the three accounts, respectively.
Key takeaways
- Three plaintiffs allege App Store controls were insufficient, leading to seed-phrase theft via a fake Bitcoin wallet app.
- The complaint states total claimed losses reached roughly $1.8 million during 2025.
- Apple says it removed apps impersonating Sparrow Wallet and terminated associated developer accounts.
- Sparrow Wallet has no official iOS app, which the filing and related developer commentary indicate should have mattered to users.
Lawsuit alleges App Store oversight failures
The lawsuit names plaintiffs James Ramirez, Christopher Ellis, and Jalen Delgado. The filing alleges Apple did not adequately review and monitor applications despite promoting the App Store as a secure channel for users to obtain software. A copy of the complaint was obtained by MacRumors, which reported on the case.
The core allegation is straightforward and common to seed-phrase theft scams: the victims allegedly provided their seed phrases to the fraudulent application, after which scammers transferred their Bitcoin. Each plaintiff reported losses of different magnitudes during 2025, culminating in the combined figure cited in the complaint.
The broader issue raised by the plaintiffs is less about one specific scam and more about whether platform-level processes—review, monitoring, and enforcement—were strong enough to prevent an impersonation-style wallet from reaching users.
Sparrow Wallet impersonation and the iOS gap
MacRumors’ coverage ties the alleged scam to Sparrow Wallet impersonation. Sparrow Wallet is described as being available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and the wallet’s developer, Craig Raw, previously criticized Apple over fake versions of the application appearing on the App Store.
Crucially for users, Sparrow Wallet has no official iOS app. That absence is significant because impersonation scams typically rely on confusion—users may assume a popular wallet exists on their device and may not realize that the genuine developer did not provide an iOS version.
While the lawsuit centers on the plaintiffs’ alleged experience, this iOS gap also points to a practical takeaway: wallet users should be cautious about any “official” claim for seed-based wallets appearing on mobile app stores—especially when the known developer ecosystem indicates a different set of supported platforms.
Apple says it removed the apps and took enforcement action
In response to MacRumors, Apple said it had removed apps impersonating Sparrow Wallet and terminated developer accounts linked to those apps. Apple also stated that developers and users can report applications that violate App Store guidelines, and that it takes action against apps that do not comply with its rules.
This response frames Apple’s position as enforcement after detection, rather than an admission that the App Store’s gatekeeping was insufficient before the scam was live. For investors, traders, and builders, the tension here is important: seed-phrase scams produce irreversible outcomes for users, so the debate naturally turns to how quickly and how effectively malicious impersonators are identified and removed.
The case therefore sets up a likely factual dispute over timing and adequacy—what Apple knew, when it acted, and whether its review and monitoring efforts met the standard the plaintiffs argue should apply to a marketplace that promotes itself as trustworthy.
Why this matters for crypto users and the broader app ecosystem
Seed-phrase entry scams are among the most damaging categories of fraud in the crypto ecosystem because they transfer control of funds in a way that is difficult for users to reverse. This lawsuit highlights a recurring vulnerability: users often treat app stores as inherently safer than installing software from unknown sources, even though wallet-related attacks can still pass through if impersonation and branding are effective.
For crypto users, the dispute underscores several risk-control habits that remain relevant regardless of what the court ultimately decides. First, users should verify whether a wallet exists on iOS at all—particularly when a developer’s published support list does not include iOS. Second, users should avoid entering seed phrases into any app that was not directly sourced from official developer channels. Third, even if a platform removes malicious apps later, users may already have lost funds by the time enforcement occurs.
For app developers and wallet maintainers, the case is also a reminder that brand impersonation can cause real financial harm quickly, and that monitoring and reporting mechanisms may need to be paired with more proactive user education—especially around what is and isn’t available on mobile.
Readers should watch next for how the court addresses the alleged timeline of the fraudulent apps and what evidence the plaintiffs use to argue that App Store processes were inadequate prior to the losses. Apple’s response suggests it will emphasize removals and enforcement efforts, so the factual record on detection and action timing may be the central battleground.
Hyperliquid’s SK Hynix perpetual contract briefly fell about 17.9% on July 28 after an unusually low pre-market trade in South Korea fed into the contract’s oracle pricing.
Summary
- 17.9% intraday decline followed one anomalous NXT trade involving only a single SK Hynix share.
- Trade.xyz operates the SKHX market and is investigating the oracle-driven move, Hyperliquid representatives said publicly.
- HIP-3 deployers control oracle inputs, leverage settings and settlements for markets they independently create themselves.
The market, officially listed as xyz:SKHX, tracks the U.S. dollar value of one common SK Hynix share traded in South Korea. Hyperliquid’s interface displays the contract as SKHYNIX-USDC and permits leverage of up to 10 times.
A Hyperliquid representative said the market was deployed and operated by Trade.xyz under the HIP-3 framework. Trade.xyz is investigating and plans to publish an update after reaching a conclusion, according to a statement reported by ChainThink.
One SK Hynix share triggered the initial price anomaly
The disruption began shortly after South Korea’s alternative exchange, NextTrade, opened its pre-market session. One SK Hynix share changed hands at 1.272 million won, 29.96% below the previous close of 1.816 million won.
The trade briefly placed the stock at its daily lower price limit. Korean reports attributed the print to a possible order error combined with limited liquidity during the early session. The underlying price later moved back above that isolated trade.
On-chain tracker HyperInsight said SKHX dropped from about $1,128.20 to $927 as the external price change moved through the oracle and mark-price system. The contract later recovered above $1,100.
The event occurred during a broader decline in South Korean semiconductor shares. SK Hynix closed the regular Seoul session at 1.55 million won, down 14.65%, although that closing move was less severe than the initial one-share print.Trade.xyz documentation states that the SKHX oracle tracks one SK Hynix common share and converts its Korean won price into U.S. dollars using the prevailing exchange rate.
That design allowed the unusual NXT transaction to affect the on-chain contract even though it involved only one share. Leveraged positions linked to the mark price could then face liquidations or automatic deleveraging as the contract moved lower.
DefiLlama’s later snapshot showed SKHX at approximately $1,067, down 13.7% over 24 hours. Open interest stood near $406 million after falling about 20%, while daily volume exceeded $1 billion. These figures can continue changing as positions are opened and closed.
There is no verified evidence that Hyperliquid’s blockchain or smart contracts were compromised. The available information points to an external market print passing through Trade.xyz’s pricing methodology.
HIP-3 makes Trade.xyz responsible for market operation
HIP-3 allows independent teams to launch perpetual markets on Hyperliquid while using the network’s order books, margin system and liquidation engine. The deployer defines the contract, selects its oracle and controls leverage limits and settlement.
Hyperliquid’s API documentation says deployers supply oracle prices, external perpetual prices and as many as two additional mark-price inputs. The protocol combines those values with a local price based on the best bid, best offer and latest trade. Deployers are expected to consider unusual market conditions when designing price feeds. They must stake 500,000 HYPE and can face slashing for misconduct involving their markets.
As previously reported, Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 framework places oracle selection and market controls with outside deployers. That structure expands the number of tradable assets but makes each deployer’s price methodology central to risk management.
Trade.xyz has not published its conclusion
Trade.xyz had not issued a final incident report when checked. Key unanswered questions include which NXT price inputs entered the oracle, whether filters operated as designed and whether any safeguards will change.
The market remained active after the disruption. Hyperliquid’s documentation allows deployers to halt trading, adjust open-interest limits or settle a contract, but no permanent SKHX suspension had been announced.
Notably, other decentralised exchanges have also introduced perpetual contracts for Korean stocks, increasing the links between thin local trading sessions and continuously operating crypto derivatives.
The next verified update is expected from Trade.xyz. Any final assessment should clarify whether the contract behaved according to its published rules or whether its oracle methodology requires changes.
The IMF said Brazil’s stablecoin market has expanded rapidly since 2017, with cross-border crypto flows growing faster than traditional capital flows.
Perpetual futures tied to SK Hynix, a South Korean chipmaker whose American depositary receipts debuted on Nasdaq earlier this month, suffered a flash crash on Hyperliquid shortly before the underlying share price came under pressure in its home market.
Between 23:00 UTC and 23:01 UTC, the price of perpetuals tracking the Seoul-traded stock crashed 20% to $900, according to data from Hyperliquid. The price rebounded to over $1,000 the very next minute and was recently priced at $1,092. The contract is traded and denominated in dollar-pegged stablecoin USDC.
An hour later, the Korean stock market opened on a negative note, led by chipmakers. By the end of the day, SK Hynix shares had dropped by 15% to 1,550,000 won ($1,762). Other losers included Samsung Electronics and carmaker Hyundai Motor. The benchmark Kospi index fell 11%.
SK Hynix ADRs, 10 of which equal one share, fell 4.5% in pre-market trading to $136.51.
Hyperliquid, the leading perpetuals-focused decentralized exchange, has emerged as a hot favorite of traders looking to express their view on traditional assets, especially since the onset of the Iran war in late February. The exchange had not responded to a request for comment by publication time.
BitMEX is now facing legal action alleging it withheld trader collateral and engaged in insider trading. The new lawsuit accuses Hayes and fellow co-founders, Ben Delo and Samuel Reed, of designing a system to retain customers’ collateral and transfer the remaining bitcoin to the platform’s insurance fund.
“One lawsuit won’t move the market, but allegations involving 622 BTC (worth over $40.5 million) of withheld collateral reinforce the oldest doubt in crypto: your funds are safe until the day they aren’t,” said Samuel Videau, chief technology officer at Genius. “What’s ending is opacity,the model where you wire assets to a black box and take the operator’s word for it.”
The overall crypto derivatives market has barely flinched. The perpetual swap product BitMEX built now generates the bulk of trading activity on larger exchanges like Binance and OKX, alongside traditional platforms like the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME).
“The derivatives market is now much larger and more diversified,” said Edwin Cheung, executive director at crypto trading platform Gate. “Most displaced volume is likely to be absorbed by other established platforms.”
The shift suggests exchanges now need scale, regulatory compliance and broader services to survive, rather than relying on retail trading alone.
Although most of the cryptocurrency market has turned red today, some altcoins are taking the storm worse than others. This is typically true for Pi Network’s native token, and today is no exception.
The asset has plummeted by 9% in the past 24 hours and has come painfully close to breaking below $0.07, which would mean a fresh all-time low.
PI Crashes Again
Looking at PI’s price performance, you can easily quote one of the most recognizable songs of all time, which was immortalized from the TV show Friends. It just hasn’t been PI’s day, week, month, or even a year. Aside from a few impressive but very brief pumps, such as the one in March that sent the asset to $0.30 within days, the bears have been in total control, pushing it to a new low after a new low.
The last example came precisely two weeks ago. At the time, PI had broken below the crucial $0.10 support and went into price discovery territory (but on the wrong side). It kept plunging until it finally found some support at $0.07, but only after it had charted a new all-time low.
Although the bulls reemerged at this point and helped it recover some ground to $0.10 in the following 10 days or so, the overall bearish sentiment remained high, and the inevitable transpired. PI was rejected once again, plummeted to $0.08, and after a few days trading above that line, it broke below it in the past 24 hours.
Hours ago, the asset tanked below $0.074, coming about 5% away from its ATL. Although it has rebounded slightly to over $0.075 now, it remains deep in the red daily (-9%) and weekly (-19%).
Washed Out Sentiment
Even before PI’s nosedive to $0.074, popular analyst Ben (co-founder of BSCNew) commented that the sentiment around the asset remains “as washed out as I have seen it.” And all of that comes despite the continuous updates, redesigned apps, and protocol upgrades delivered by the Core Team.
As such, Ben commented that his position is still unchanged as he cares about “shipping cadence more than the weekly candle.” And, he concluded that “the cadence is accelerating.”
Other accounts dedicated to covering Pi Network news, such as Pi Town, are also supportive of what the team is doing, and seemingly remain unfazed by the overall price calamity of the native token.

The Hyperliquid Policy Center and Multicoin Capital submitted a joint comment to the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) on July 27th.
They expressed support for the agency’s proposed prediction market framework but also pressed for two changes that could affect how on-chain event contracts are designed and approved.
The filing is a direct response to the CFTC’s “Prediction Markets; Public Interest Determinations” proposal published earlier in June. It aims to amend Regulation 40.11 and seeks to establish a 90-day process for reviewing event contracts that may involve gaming, war, terrorism, assassination, or other activities listed in the Commodity Exchange Act, among other things.
HPC and Multicoin called the plan a “clear and well-reasoned framework.” They argued that prediction markets belong under the CFTC’s exclusive federal jurisdiction.
The letter also states that regulating prediction markets on a state level, creating “fifty separate state regimes,” would fragment national derivatives markets.
Prediction markets topped $50 billion in trading volume last month, and the biggest names in traditional finance are moving in.
Today, with @multicoin, we filed a joint comment supporting the @CFTC ‘s proposed prediction markets framework.

Settlement: Key Regulatory Test
The first concern that the group outlines is related to the use of one word in the Commodity Exchange Act: “involve.” Under the statute’s rule, the CFTC can review contracts that involve certain listed activities and prohibit them when they are contrary to the public interest.
The letter supports an interpretation focused on settlement. Instead of treating trading itself as gaming, regulators would have to examine the event that determines the payout. A contract would fall within the special rule when settlement directly turns on illegal activity, not merely because buying it resembles placing a wager.
In addition, the group asked for more examples. Edge cases may include certain contracts with several potential paths to settlement or products that reference a sensitive activity only indirectly. Clear illustrations would help exchanges and developers assess regulatory exposure before having to commit resources to a launch.
Transparency Could Become a Competitive Requirement
The second recommendation concerns what happens after a review under Regulation 40.11. Under the current proposal, the CFTC would publish written findings when it blocks a contract and explain how that particular decision fits with earlier findings.
HPC and Multicoin argue that this could create an information gap: an approval, including by inaction, can reveal as much about the regulatory boundaries as a prohibition. Without any public reasoning, other platforms may repeat the same legal work, seek guidance, or avoid products that could have been permissible.
In any case, it’s interesting to follow developments surrounding the letter and whether the CFTC would adopt the two requested changes. This could be a signal that regulators are actively listening to industry experts and attempt to legislate in a way that’s both fair to anyone involved.

A federal judge blocked Minnesota’s prediction market ban on Monday, handing Kalshi, Polymarket US, and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) a preliminary injunction days before the law’s August 1 effective date.
US District Judge Katherine Menendez found the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) likely preempts the statute. Her order bars enforcement against CFTC-registered designated contract markets (DCMs) until a final merits decision.
Why the Court Found Federal Law Likely Preempts Minnesota’s Statute
Menendez issued the order in 3 related cases against Minnesota, Attorney General Keith Ellison, Governor Tim Walz, and other state officials. Kalshi, Polymarket US, and the federal government each won their injunction motions.
Minnesota’s law, Minn. Stat. § 609.7615, makes operating or creating a prediction market a felony. It covers sports, elections, legal actions, pop culture, and statements by specific people. Advertising and providing data services also carry criminal penalties.
The CFTC filed its lawsuit in May, after Walz signed the legislation. Chairman Michael Selig argued the ban would criminalize weather contracts that Minnesota farmers use for hedging.
Menendez ruled that the CEA gives the CFTC exclusive jurisdiction over swaps traded on DCMs. She found many contracts on both platforms, including election and geopolitical markets, that likely qualify as swaps. Consequently, Minnesota likely cannot regulate them.
“Kalshi and Polymarket US are designated contract markets, so the CFTC has exclusive jurisdiction to regulate transactions involving those swaps,” the order read.

Judge Signals Final Relief Could Be Narrower
However, Menendez stressed that not every event contract fits the swap definition. She pointed to Kalshi markets on Love Island USA winners and World Cup announcer mentions as likely failing the test.
Both sides briefed the case as all-or-nothing, she noted. That left the court little guidance for crafting a narrower remedy, so she froze the entire statute for now.
Irreparable harm weighed heavily in the decision. Kalshi reported over 90,000 verified Minnesota users as of May 26, with millions of dollars in open positions. Sovereign immunity would bar any recovery of damages if enforcement proceeded.
The court did not address the First Amendment claims raised by both exchanges. Those questions, along with the implied preemption issue, now await a full merits ruling.

In Washington, momentum can vanish as quickly as it arrives. The Clarity Act now sits on the shelf, while the Bitcoin price slips under renewed pressure after a sharp selloff across Asian markets.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune has shifted attention toward federal nominations and a Russia sanctions bill, delaying debate on crypto legislation. The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, designed to define SEC and CFTC oversight, now faces an increasingly narrow window before Congress begins its August recess.

Clarity Act Delay Extends Regulatory Limbo
The Clarity Act is a reminder that politics don’t move in straight lines. Ethics concerns surrounding public officials’ digital asset holdings continue to complicate negotiations. Meanwhile, a proposed 2029 sunset clause remains another point of contention before lawmakers can reach consensus.
Outside Capitol Hill, opposition continues to build. New York Attorney General Letitia James argues the Clarity Act could weaken states’ ability to prosecute crypto fraud, potentially limiting local enforcement powers. Her criticism adds another obstacle as supporters race against the congressional calendar.
Not just in the States, regulatory pressure is also unfolding overseas. Thailand’s SEC has filed criminal complaints against Bitkub and two former executives over allegations they concealed a 2021 cyberattack worth about $50 million. Although customers were reimbursed, authorities allege the exchange submitted inaccurate reports, reviving concerns over transparency throughout the industry.
Elsewhere, prediction markets continue advancing despite federal uncertainty. A U.S. judge temporarily blocked Minnesota’s restrictions on platforms including Kalshi and Polymarket, citing potential conflicts with federal commodities law. As the CFTC seeks faster legal clarity, the Clarity Act remains trapped in Washington’s legislative queue.

Bitcoin Price Slides as Asian Markets Trigger Risk Aversion
The Bitcoin price weakened after Asian equity markets suffered a huge selloff, extending losses from the previous U.S. session. Bitcoin briefly fell below recent support before stabilizing. It’s not just crypto, but a wider retreat from risk assets as investors reduced exposure across multiple markets.
The butchering started with South Korea’s Kospi, which recorded one of its sharpest declines in months, led by heavy selling in major technology stocks. This could be the culprit, dragging the Bitcoin price lower alongside market sentiment.
Recent gains have also begun to lose momentum. Bitcoin price previously rebounded from July lows but struggled to reclaim higher resistance levels as buying pressure softened. Spot Bitcoin ETFs continued attracting inflows over recent weeks, although significant late-week withdrawals showed institutional demand remains sensitive to macroeconomic shifts.
Large holders have largely avoided aggressive accumulation during the latest decline. Strategy maintained its existing Bitcoin position without announcing any additional purchases, instead preserving billions in available cash. At the same time, miners may receive modest relief as network difficulty appears set for its first annual decline in nearly two decades.
Attention now shifts toward the Federal Reserve and Washington alike. Bitcoin price could remain trapped in a cautious range until investors receive clearer signals from policymakers and lawmakers. For now, delayed legislation and fragile market sentiment continue moving together, leaving the Clarity Act and crypto markets waiting for the next decisive chapter.

The rather impressive Monday rally didn’t last long, as the entire cryptocurrency market has turned red today, with the market cap losing over $80 billion from top to bottom.
Ripple’s native token is no exception. The asset has dropped from yesterday’s peak at $1.11 to $1.05. Here are some of the possible reasons behind this decline and what could be next.
XRP Dives and ETF Inflows Can’t Save It
Perhaps the most obvious reason behind XRP’s crash is that it’s not an isolated case; the entire market has turned red, led by bitcoin’s dive from $65,600 to $63,000. As such, the cross-border token cannot be simply ruled out, as it tends to follow the overall market trend.
It appears investors are reducing their exposure to risk-on assets like crypto ahead of the next Federal Reserve FOMC meeting. The US central bank will announce its interest rate decision tomorrow evening. According to some reports, there’s an actual chance of a rate hike despite easing inflation in June.
The rejection at $1.11 and the subsequent decline to $1.05 meant that XRP has actually lost a crucial support zone at $1.08-$1.10, which managed to halt its free falls for most of July. Aside from this technical side of things, the asset’s drop triggered a large wave of liquidations, which also created the snowball effect of a more profound decline.
The silver lining is that the ETF net flows remained in the green. However, it was a very modest number of under $600,000, which is evidently not sufficient to help XRP avoid such price losses.
So What’s Next?
The daily leg down hasn’t changed popular analysts’ opinion on XRP’s claimed bright future. Xaif Crypto acknowledged the rising leverage and XRP’s rather tight trading range. The market observer commented that “two-sided liquidations are getting hit on both longs and shorts,” which, aligned with neutral funding and drying up spot liquidity on Binance, will likely lead to a much bigger move soon.
Meanwhile, CasiTrades outlined once again that she expects the next XRP wave to be “violent.” The analyst noted that XRP has returned to macro support, which, if broken to the downside, will likely lead to a more painful decline to $0.87, her targeted bottom.

The post Why Is Ripple’s XRP Down by 4.5% Today (July 28)? appeared first on CryptoPotato.
All eyes are on July 30, when Amazon reports Q2 2026 earnings, with Wall Street increasingly convinced the bar has been set too low. Consensus sees EPS near $1.82-$2.26 on roughly $197 billion in revenue, but the real story is AWS: after posting its fastest growth in 15 quarters at 28% in Q1, several major banks—including Bank of America—now expect acceleration toward 32-33%, fueled by surging AI demand and Bedrock workloads tied to Anthropic and OpenAI.
That optimism comes with a catch. Amazon’s $200 billion AI capex plan has already squeezed free cash flow to just $1.2 billion, and investors will be watching closely for any further guidance hike, following similar moves from Alphabet. Options markets are pricing a 6.3% swing on earnings day, above the stock’s typical 5.4% post-earnings move, signaling traders expect this report to matter more than usual.
With shares up roughly 18% year-to-date and trading at a below-average forward multiple, the setup favors strength—but only if AWS growth and margin guidance clear an already demanding bar.
Technical Analysis of Amazon
As the chart shows, Amazon stock has pulled back from April’s highs near $280 within a broader ascending channel, with price now testing the confluence of the rising trendline and the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement near $225-$230—precisely where Thursday’s earnings could prove decisive.
Bullish Scenario
Should Amazon deliver on the AWS acceleration Wall Street is now pricing in, a strong earnings beat could fuel a bounce off this trendline-Fibonacci confluence. A confirmed reclaim of the 0.5 retracement near $240, followed by a push back above the 0.382 level around $248, would put the broader uptrend firmly back in play, opening the door toward a retest of the channel’s upper boundary and the April highs.
Bearish Scenario
Conversely, a disappointing report—particularly around capex guidance or AWS margins—could send price breaking below both the ascending trendline and the 0.618 retracement. That would expose the deeper 0.786 level near $215, with a more severe reaction potentially dragging price back toward the $200 psychological support that has held since April.
With earnings landing squarely on this technical crossroads, AMZN stock’s next move could be one of the most consequential of the summer—will AWS’s AI story be enough to reignite the rally, or does the chart already know something the numbers don’t?
