Ukraine's President, Volodymyr Zelensky, recently met with the leaders of BlackRock, the world's largest investment management company, to discuss the creation of an investment fund aimed at revitalizing the country's economy. The fund will be financed by both public and private capital and will support large-scale business projects in Ukraine. The Ministry of Economy of Ukraine has signed a contract with BlackRock Financial Market Advisory to provide advisory services for the development of the Ukraine Development Fund. The creation of this fund marks an important milestone in the country's economic development, as Ukraine has not seen significant private investment at this scale before. President Zelensky has highlighted that the successful implementation of the project will send a powerful message to both domestic and foreign investors about the country's investment climate. To ensure transparency and success, Ukraine has engaged top financial and consulting organizations such as BlackRock, JP Morgan, and McKinsey. This initiative is a positive development for Ukraine's economy and a testament to the government's commitment to attracting private investment. The creation of the Ukraine Development Fund is a critical step towards achieving sustainable economic growth and prosperity for the country.

Conor Grogan, Head of Product Business Operations at Coinbase, called attention to dubious transactions carried out by anonymous wallets that were purchasing tokens minutes before Binance listing announcements and selling them during the pump. The purchase of Rar, ERN, TORN, and RAMP tokens are examples of such transactions. A $100,000 to $900,000 worth of transactions were made. The "trader" earned several million dollars over the course of several transactions. Grogan speculated that it could be either a rogue employee or a trader who might have access to the losing API.
