OpenClaw's rise draws phishing campaign targeting developers' crypto wallets
Malicious cyber actors are exploiting the growing popularity of the open-source AI agent project OpenClaw with a phishing campaign to drain developers' crypto wallets, cybersecurity firm OX Security said. In a report published Wednesday, OX said the threat actor created fake GitHub accounts, opened issue threads in attacker-controlled repositories, and tagged dozens of developers claiming they had been selected to receive $5,000 in "CLAW" tokens. Attackers directed victims to a malicious site, tricking them into connecting their wallets to claim fraudulent rewards. According to OX, the webpage was an almost identical ... (full story)

The previous week's level was revised down by 3,000 from 1,850,000 to 1,847,000. The 4-week moving average was 1,850,500, a decrease of 2,000 from the previous week's revised average. The previous week's av JOBLESS CLAIMS JUST BEAT — AND THAT CHANGES THE STORY U.S. initial jobless claims came in at 205,000 for the week ending March 13, 2026. That’s below the 215,000 forecast and down from 213,000 prior. What’s happening: Fewer people are filing for unemployment. Why this…
US applications for jobless benefits fall to 205,000 last week as layoffs remain historically low U.S. applications for unemployment benefits fell last week, remaining in the same range of recent years despite a broadly tepid labor market. The number of Americans filing for jobless aid for the week ending March 14 fell by 8,000 from the previous week to 205,000, the Labor Department reported Thursday. That’s fewer than the 215,000 new filings analysts surveyed by the data firm FactSet were expecting. Filings for unemployment benefits are viewed as a proxy for U.S. layoffs and are close to a real-time indicator of the health of the job market. While weekly layoffs have remained in a healthy range mostly between 200,000 and 250,000 for the past few years, a number of high-profile companies have announced job cuts recently, including Morgan Stanley, Block, UPS and Amazon. Earlier this month, the Labor Department reported that U.S. employers unexpectedly cut 92,000 jobs in February, a sign that the labor market remains under strain. Revisions also slashed 69,000 jobs from December and January payrolls, nudging the unemployment rate up to 4.4%.

From ecb.europa.eu|Mar 19, 2026|6 commentsThe Governing Council today decided to keep the three key ECB interest rates unchanged. It is determined to ensure that inflation stabilises at the 2% target in the medium term. The war in the Middle East has made the outlook significantly more uncertain, creating upside risks for inflation and downside risks for economic growth. It will have a material impact on near-term inflation through higher energy prices. Its medium-term implications will depend both on the intensity and duration of the conflict and on how energy prices affect consumer prices and the economy. The Governing Council is well positioned to navigate this uncertainty. Inflation has been at around the 2% target, longer-term inflation expectations are well anchored, and the economy has shown resilience over recent quarters. The incoming information in the period ahead will help the Governing Council assess how the war will affect the inflation outlook and the risks surrounding it. The Governing Council is closely monitoring the situation, and its data-dependent approach will help it set monetary policy as appropriate. #ECB LEAVES DEPOSIT FACILITY RATE AT 2.00%; EST. 2.00% - BBG *ECB LEAVES MAIN REFINANCING RATE AT 2.15%; EST. 2.15% *ECB LEAVES MARGINAL LENDING FACILITY AT 2.40%; EST. 2.40% *ECB: WAR POSES UPSIDE INFLATION RISKS, DOWNSIDE GROWTH RISKS *ECB TO DECIDE BASED ON CORE INFLATION,…
ECB follows Bank of England with interest rate hold as Iran war intensifies The European Central Bank (ECB) has followed the Bank of England (BoE) and the US Federal Reserve in keeping interest rates on hold. The deposit rate has been left at 2%, the main refinancing rate at 2.15% and the marginal lending facility at 2.40% amid concerns that the ongoing conflict in the Middle East could drive up inflation through higher energy prices. Investors will now focus on ECB president Christine Lagarde’s remarks during the press conference at 1.45pm for signals on the future path of policy. Inflation in the eurozone stood at 1.9% in February, just below the central bank’s 2% target. However, markets have scaled back expectations for rate cuts in 2026, with growing bets on one or two rate rises this year.
