Crypto drainer AngelX deploys 300+ malicious DApps in 4 days
The notorious crypto phishing toolkit Angel Drainer is back, this time with a new and improved version called AngelX which has already deployed hundreds of malicious apps, according to a new report from blockchain security firm Blockaid.
In a Sept. 4 statement shared with Cointelegraph, Blockaid said the new AngelX system had already deployed 300 malicious decentralized applications (DApps) designed to steal digital assets from crypto users.
Blockaid said one of the more worrying features of AngelX is its upgraded support for phishing apps targeting users on “newer, less mature blockchains,” including The Open Network (TON) and Tron network.
“[AngelX] perceive these chains as less equipped to defend against attacks, due to a lack of robust security tools and support,” said Blockaid.
Additionally, the firm noted that they had detected over 150 new scams powered by the AngelX system following its launch on Aug. 31.

Uniswap charged by CFTC
On Sept. 4, the CFTC charged decentralized exchange developer Uniswap Labs with illegally offering leveraged crypto trading products to US retail investors.
According to the regulator, Uniswap Labs has already agreed to settle the charges by paying a $175,000 civil penalty and cease violating the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA). The CFTC’s director of enforcement, Ian McGinley, said the regulator “will vigorously enforce the CEA as digital asset platforms and DeFi ecosystems evolve.”
The decision to charge Uniswap wasn’t unanimous, as one CFTC commissioner, Summer Mersinger, opposed the action.
“It was my hope that one day soon the Commission would consider rulemaking, or at the very least guidance, making clear how DeFi protocols could comply with them,” said Mersinger. “Unfortunately, today is not that day.”
According to the latest data from DefiLlama, Uniswap currently holds more than $4 billion in assets across several chains.
