🧵 Legal thread of the week: ASIC Warns Gen Z: Crypto Scams Are Hiding in Your WhatsApp “Share Trading” Groups #ASIC just warned: scammers are using social media “share trading” ads to pull Gen Z into messaging app groups — then straight onto fake digital asset platforms. 72% of 18-28 year olds have seen the ads. 41% have been contacted about investing in crypto. The pattern is identical every time. You click the ad. You join the WhatsApp group. Scammers impersonate known figures with “hot tips.” They send you to a fake platform that shows real-looking #trades and profits. There is no trading. Deposits go straight to the scammers’ bank accounts. When you try to withdraw, they charge extra “fees”, then the money is gone. The same groups now run recovery scams on pump-and-dump victims too. Gen Z is the target because they’re online and active. Survey of 1,127 Australians aged 18-28: • 23% own digital assets • 66% of owners trade short-term and speculatively • 29% base trades on social media influencers ASIC’s three practical steps: Don’t act on investment advice from social media or messaging groups. Before sending money, check the platform on AUSTRAC’s register of legitimate virtual asset service providers. If it feels wrong, contact your bank and the authorities immediately. This alert lands two months after Parliament passed the Corporations Amendment (#Digital Assets Framework) Bill 2025. Royal Assent: 8 April. Digital asset platforms and custodians must now hold an Australian Financial Services License, same as every other regulated financial firm. 12 months to comply. The #law puts fake platforms on notice. Until enforcement is complete, the only real defense is still the oldest one: verify first, then send a cent. 🏛️ In today’s world, knowing #Bitcoin law isn’t optional, it’s essential for staying free and safe. 💥 Subscribe to my weekly newsletter and get the sharpest breakdowns delivered straight to you:

🧵 We just crossed 25,000 sats sent to readers of The Bitcoin Act through Lightning ⚡ Not sold. Not farmed. Not VC-funded “engagement”. Just sats sent directly to real Bitcoiners for opening and reading the newsletter early. And honestly… this is exactly the kind of internet I hoped Bitcoin would create. 2/ Every issue, early openers earn sats ⚡ Read first → earn Bitcoin. Simple. No tokens. No points. No fake gamification. Just Lightning working the way it was meant to work. 3/ The coolest part? People from completely different countries are now: • learning about Bitcoin law • earning sats • using Lightning • and interacting economically in real time through a newsletter. That still blows my mind. 4/ Most newsletters want your attention. I wanted to build one that actually gives something back. So instead of: “consume content” it became: “earn and learn.” 5/ We’ve now sent 25,000+ sats directly into the hands of readers ⚡ Tiny payments. Instant settlement. Global. No permission needed. This is the future Bitcoiners were talking about all along. 6/ And the crazy thing is… most people STILL haven’t experienced receiving sats over Lightning. The moment it clicks, you understand Bitcoin differently. It stops feeling theoretical. 7/ This is exactly why I built The Bitcoin Act. Twice-weekly Bitcoin legal intelligence + sats for early readers. No noise. No influencer garbage. Just signal ⚡ 8/ If you’re already subscribed: thank you for helping make this little Lightning economy real. If you want to join us: reply ⚡ and I’ll send you the subscription link in DM.
