Charles Guillemet – Warning on supply chain attack.
Charles Guillemet is the CTO at Ledger, a company known for making hardware wallets that keep crypto safe. His work is focused on cryptography, security, and building strong tech that protects users from hackers. Charles has been a leading voice in blockchain security for years, warning people about risks and pushing for safer tools. He has also worked on Ledger Donjon, a special lab that tests security. His focus is not just on technology but also on how people actually use it in daily crypto trading.
Charles posted an urgent warning about a major supply chain attack. A popular developer’s NPM account was hacked, and malicious code may have already been downloaded over a billion times. This code can secretly replace crypto addresses and steal money. His post made people sit up because it affects the whole JavaScript ecosystem, not just crypto users. KOLs and security experts are talking about it nonstop. The buzz comes from both the danger and the fact that Ledger hardware wallets remain safe, which makes his warning even more important.
🚨 There’s a large-scale supply chain attack in progress: the NPM account of a reputable developer has been compromised. The affected packages have already been downloaded over 1 billion times, meaning the entire JavaScript ecosystem may be at risk.

Alterego is a new project working on a wearable device that lets people communicate silently almost like “telepathy.” It picks up brain signals before words are spoken and turns them into commands or messages. The device doesn’t read random thoughts, only what you actually want to say. This makes it a mix of science, AI, and futuristic communication. Built from MIT research, Alterego aims to give people faster, hands-free ways to interact with apps, search online, and even help those who cannot speak.
The project went viral after announcing breakthroughs in “Silent Sense,” a technology that captures signals from speech intent. Alterego promises typing at the speed of thought, searching the internet silently, and even chatting without speaking. The hype is huge because it feels like science fiction coming true. People on crypto Twitter and beyond are calling it one of the most futuristic inventions this year. KOLs are especially excited about its potential for accessibility and human-AI integration. It’s trending because it blends cutting-edge tech with a real mission.
Introducing Alterego: the world’s first near-telepathic wearable that enables silent communication at the speed of thought.
Alterego makes AI an extension of the human mind.
We’ve made several breakthroughs since our work started at MIT.
We’re announcing those today.

dm.fun is a playful new project from the team at Matrica Labs. Unlike big technical launches, it started with just a single tweet: “hii.” The website itself is designed to be funny and weird, standing out from typical crypto landing pages. At its core, it looks like an experimental project mixing memes, waitlists, and possibly token incentives. The account is small but growing fast because people are curious about what’s behind the quirky front.
The hype started when users discovered they could redeem free SOL through dm.fun’s website. Some KOLs called it “quick alpha” and told others to try it out. Screenshots of the funny waitlist design and rumors of hidden badges made the buzz even bigger. For now, nobody knows the full plan, but that mystery is fueling engagement. It’s the kind of playful launch that crypto Twitter loves simple, viral, and leaving people guessing what’s next. That’s why dm.fun is blowing up today.
Hmm what’s that badge?
@dmdotfun might just be something…
Stay tuned
