Odaily Planet Daily News: South Korean crypto exchange Bithumb has won the first-instance lawsuit in its initial recovery case involving mistakenly sent Bitcoin. The court ruled that the user who held and sold the mistakenly sent Bitcoin must return approximately 194 million Korean won, equivalent to around $145,000. In February, Bithumb mistakenly distributed 620,000 Bitcoin as event rewards, valued at approximately $5 billion at the time. Bithumb subsequently initiated a recovery process and reported in March that 99% of the mistakenly sent Bitcoin had been recovered.

Odaily Planet Daily News Bitcoin multisig hardware wallet Frostsnap has released version v0.4.0, fixing two security issues with no user fund losses detected so far. First, a malicious signing request could mark a certain output as belonging to the user's wallet. The device did not verify this claim and would not display it on the confirmation screen, potentially allowing funds to be transferred to an address the user had never seen. Second, change addresses could fall outside the wallet's recovery scan range, causing funds to appear missing after backup restoration, although the relevant funds actually remained in the wallet. After the update, the app will prompt users to upgrade their device firmware and adds firmware downgrade protection. The Frostsnap team recommends that users update the app and firmware as soon as possible.

Odaily News: According to foreign media reports, two smaller Persian Gulf oil producers, Kuwait and Qatar, are increasing crude oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, further boosting the recovery of oil transport volumes along this waterway. Traders revealed that before the outbreak of the Iran war, the two countries exported a combined total of approximately 2 million barrels of oil per day, and current export volumes have recovered to 70% of pre-conflict levels.
The UAE was the first Gulf oil producer to resume large-scale oil exports through the Strait of Hormuz, adopting a method known as "shuttle transport," which involves ship-to-ship transfers in the Gulf of Oman. Saudi Arabia has since followed suit. Traders stated that approximately 7 to 8 million barrels of oil are currently shipped through the Strait of Hormuz daily, up from around 4 million barrels in mid-July, equivalent to roughly three-quarters of pre-war levels. Vortexa said on Monday that oil flows through the waterway are approaching 10 million barrels per day. (Jin10)
