New top story on Hacker News: Scammed by the top result for 'Bitcoin wallet' in Apple App Store

Scammed by the top result for 'Bitcoin wallet' in Apple App Store 31 by habeanf | 27 comments on Hacker News. Earlier today I decided to switch my Android for an iPhone. After moving all my apps I decided to make the jump and move my bitcoin from the android wallet. I searched for 'bitcoin wallet' on the Apple App Store, installed the first app I saw (as far as I could tell, looks legit), transferred bitcoin, and it immediately got sent off. Turns out this app was previously reported at least 12 days ago as a scam ( https://ift.tt/NVxdbUZ ) but its still up there, #1 search result. I get that I've failed to vet the app but honestly, how does a scam app become the #1 organic search result (not promoted) in the app store, topping binance, blockchain.com, and coinbase?

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: wallstreetlocal – View investments from America's biggest companies

Show HN: wallstreetlocal – View investments from America's biggest companies 15 by anonyonoor | 2 comments on Hacker News. Hello Hacker News! My name is Anonyo, and I am a seventeen-year-old from Southeast Michigan. This is wallstreetlocal, my passion project for the last year (and a half). I've posted this before, but I've finally open-sourced this entire project, so I thought I'd post it again. Heres the short pitch. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) keeps record of every company in the United States. Companies whose holdings surpass $100 million though, are required to file a special type of form: the 13F form. This form, filed quarterly, discloses the filer's holdings, providing transparency into their investment activities and allowing the public and other market participants to monitor them. The problem though, is that these holdings are often cumbersome to access, and valuable analysis is often hidden behind a paywall. Through wallstreetlocal, t...
