The bankrupt Bitcoin exchange Mt.Gox reported multiple unauthorized attempts to log into creditor accounts in the past 24 hours, causing creditors to worry about the safety of their remaining assets and possible selling pressure on the currency price. The market may be worried that the incident will have an adverse impact on the short-term currency price.

Blink allows on-chain functions to be embedded directly on Twitter. With just one click on a tweet, you can complete various on-chain actions such as swap, mint, and donate. But at that time, Blink only demonstrated the ability of what I can do, and how to do it specifically was left open to the community and developers to explore.
