Blockchain-based metaverse company – The Sandbox – has warned its users about a security breach through a malware application.
According to the official blog post, an unauthorized third party managed to gain access to the computer of one of its employees and used the information it found to send an email falsely claiming to be from The Sandbox. Its statement read:
“We have blocked the employee’s accounts and access to The Sandbox, reformatted the employee’s laptop, and reset all related passwords including requiring two-factor authentication. We have not identified any further impacts.”
Security Breach
The Sandbox explained that the security breach, which was first identified on February 26, enabled the third party to access several email addresses to which it then sent a message falsely claiming to be from the company.
The email in question, which was loaded with malware hyperlinks, was titled “The Sandbox Game (PURELAND) Access.” This allowed the exploiter to remotely install malware on a user’s computer, granting it control over the machine as well as access to the user’s personal information.
The company warned against possible phishing attacks and urged them to avoid clicking on a hyperlink in the phishing email or any other suspicious links to prevent malware from being installed on their computers. It also recommended users strengthen their passwords and implement two-factor authentication,
The Sandbox, however, clarified that the third party’s access was limited to a single employee’s computer, accessed through a malware application. No other services or accounts of The Sandbox were breached.
So far, all recipients were notified by email, and the compromised passwords on the employee’s account were reset. The team is currently monitoring the situation and working on enhancing related security policies and practices.
Rampant Phishing Attacks
The latest development comes days after Trezor warned its users about an active phishing attack to steal funds by making them enter the wallet’s recovery phrase on a fake website resembling that of the hardware cryptocurrency wallet provider.
Its rival, Ledger, suffered a massive data breach in 2020. The perpetrators publicly leaked the personal information of over 270,000 customers.

Whale activity is currently spiking for Cardano (ADA) and The Sandbox (SAND), according to the crypto analytics firm Santiment.
Santiment notes in a new analysis that Cardano has witnessed “major interest” from whale addresses since the beginning of February.

The analytics firm views whale transactions as those larger than $100,000.
“Don’t mind the five-day anomaly gap in data for Cardano. Just take a look at what the asset has done since February. Clearly a huge spike indicating some major interest from whales at this level.”

The Ethereum (ETH) competitor’s native asset, ADA, is worth $0.39 at time of writing. The seventh-ranked crypto asset by market cap is down more than 3% in the past 24 hours but up more than 3% in the past month.
ADA remains more than 87% down from its all-time high of $3.09, which it hit in September 2021.
On Sunday, The Sandbox, a metaverse altcoin, saw its third-largest spike in whale transactions in the past three months, according to Santiment.
The analytics firm notes that because the uptick in whale activity happened while the project’s native asset, SAND, was also surging in price, it “increases the probability of at least a short-term correction.”
“The Sandbox has been on quite a tear of its own. Not quite to the capacity that Hex has been. But it has been turning heads quite a bit. Yesterday was the third highest whale spike in the past 3 months. And it came as prices were rising rapidly. This increases the probability of at least a short-term correction.”

SAND is worth $0.783 at time of writing. The 43rd-ranked crypto asset by market cap is down more than 6% in the past 24 hours and more than 3.5% in the past month. SAND remains more than 90% down from its all-time high of $0.783, which it hit in November 2021.

Whale Activity Explodes for Ethereum Rival Cardano, The Sandbox and Two Additional Altcoins: Santiment

Sandbox VR is creating a location-based Squid Game VR experience with Netflix, which arrives in late 2023.
Best known for creating full-body VR experiences based on brands like Star Trek: Discovery Away Mission, Netflix’s popular series is the next Sandbox VR adaptation. Released in September 2021, Squid Game quickly became the streaming platform’s most-watched TV series, amassing 1.65 billion viewing hours across 142 million households. With a second season releasing later this year, it’s little surprise to see Netflix partner with Sandbox VR for an official adaptation.
“What could be a more perfect fit than Squid Game, the most widely shared and discussed television series of the past years,” states Sandbox VR CEO Steve Zhao in a prepared statement. “It’s an amazing opportunity to partner with Netflix to provide these fans the chance to transport themselves into the world of the show.”

I'm thrilled to announce Squid Game will be coming to @SandboxVR  later this year! To be able to work on one of the world's top brands is incredibly humbling. Big thanks goes out to the Netflix Live Experiences team for their trust in us. pic.twitter.com/DFxxJ6DxR3
— Steve Zhao (@zhaosaurus) February 8, 2023

While it’s unknown which specific Squid Game challenges are being adapted for the upcoming experience, Sandbox released this official description:

Players are transported to iconic Squid Game locations, where they become contestants in a variety of pulse-pounding challenges inspired by the Netflix series and compete against each other to be the last one standing. After each game session, players will receive personalized highlight videos capturing their in-game reactions and recapping how their very own Squid Game story unfolded.

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Squid Game in VR, though it’s the first official attempt so far. Back in October 2021, developer Soaring Roc released a multiplayer take on the famous ‘Red Light, Green Light‘ challenge for Quest. That involved racing to the finish line during a green light by holding the controller triggers and waving your hands, though if you’re caught moving when the light turns red, you’ll be shot and forced to restart.
The Sandbox VR x Squid Game virtual reality experience opens in late 2023, and Sandbox operates in over 30 worldwide locations.

Squid Game Coming To Sandbox VR Locations In Late 2023

Blockchain analytics firm Santiment says metaverse altcoin The Sandbox (SAND) is attracting more attention after whales moved massive amounts of the token to Binance.
According to Santiment, interest in The Sandbox is rising after three addresses moved 78 million SAND tokens valued at $56 million to the world’s largest crypto exchange.

The transactions caught the eye of the blockchain-tracking Twitter account Lookonchain, which Santiment credits for noticing the big whale moves.

Santiment says it appears longtime holders of SAND are selling at a profit after the price has recently remained mostly stagnant.
The analytics firm predicts the selling will cause SAND to dip in price, but it may bounce back afterward.
“They will have no problem selling it even after it starts dumping, it will even accelerate the dump. But once they are done and when you see a short drop, then it might be a good opportunity to enter the SAND position.”

At time of writing, The Sandbox is valued at $0.93, nearly a 30% jump from the previous day’s high of $0.72.
Santiment also says two artificial intelligence (AI) blockchain projects, SingularityNET (AGIX) and Fetch.ai (FET), are at the top of trending crypto topics.
Santiment says that the projects are benefiting from the broader growing interest in AI.
“The AI hype will remain here with us.” 
FET is valued at $0.52 at time of writing, nearly doubling in price this week. AGIX is trading at $0.56 at time of writing, up about 250% from its weekly low of $0.16.
Santiment says interest overall in crypto peaked the week of December 14, 2022, as markets appeared to be bottoming. But they say interest continues to remain after the rally to kick off the year.
“The overall amount of crypto discussions occurring on social platforms remains high after peaking the week of Dec. 14, 2022. Despite Bitcoin still being -66% from its Nov. 2021 All-Time High, the increasing interest in cryptocurrency is quite evident.”

Santiment also says smaller Bitcoin (BTC) holders appear to be re-engaging with the king crypto market, signaling trader optimism.
“There have been about 620,000 small Bitcoin addresses that have popped back up on the network since FOMO [fear of missing out] returned on January 13th when price regained $20,000. These 0.1 BTC or less addresses grew slowly in 2022, but 2023 is showing a return of trader optimism.”

Bitcoin is worth $23,255 at time of writing.
