5. Meitu Warns Investor After a Collapse of Ether and Bitcoin Value
The world of cryptocurrency has seen better days to the say least. Thanks to recession worries, the values of different cryptos have fallen and now investors are now in a tight spot.
For the first story on our list, we specifically focus on the investors of Meitu, the owner of the Chinese selfie app, as they have been warned by the company that "because it entered into cryptocurrencies, which had a catastrophe over the previous two months on worries about recession, its losses might increase by as much as 154% in the first half of this year."
4. A Hacked Tesla Model S Plaid was Able to Reach a Recording Breaking 216 MPH Speed Thanks to Removal of Speed Limits
We did say that we have a story about a hack in this list, but we were not referring to hacked devices to life hacks that can be of help to you day-to-day. What we were actually referring to is the news about a hacked Tesla Model S Plaid that made a record-breaking speed record.
The hacked electric vehicle (EV) reached the record-breaking 216 mph. How did it do this? Because it had been hacked, the speed limits of the vehicle were removed.
