The Drift Foundation issued one DFX token for each verified dollar taken in April's exploit, and the pool behind those 299.5 million tokens holds about $3.11 million. Tether and other partners have pledged up to $147.5 million more, none of which has arrived.
The protocol halted services, patched the contract-side flaw and promised to compensate users in full, naming eleven networks whose deposits and withdrawals would stay down for another 12 hours. Investigators who traced the outflows do not agree on where the money went.
The Equities Hub on Base takes tokenized Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia and four other stocks as collateral at 65 to 79 percent, capped at about $29 million, and lends only USDC against them. The market runs continuously while the Chainlink feed pricing that collateral stops publishing from Friday evening until Sunday evening Eastern.
Network fees on Robinhood's layer-2 fell from $6.04 million on September 4 to $234,819 twelve days later, according to DeFiLlama. Over the same stretch the value held in applications on the chain rose about 15% to a high for the series, and fees have edged back up since the low.
Roman Ż. is accused of taking PLN 7.8 million from customer accounts by altering the exchange's own records. The wider case now covers PLN 350 million and more than 3,600 complaints.
Hitting December 2029 means a hard fork roughly every seven months from Glamsterdam onward, and Hegotá, the next one in line, carries no post-quantum code at all.
Validators halted Crypto.com's chain and rolled its state back to before the attack. About $6 million had already crossed to Ethereum; the rest sits on a ledger whose history has now been rewritten.
The Foundation also wants 95 per cent of net revenue routed into open-market ENA purchases once USDe supply passes $7.5 billion. Supply is currently under $5 billion.
The attacker never touched Moonwell's code. Pushing MAMO from a cent to 47 cents in a pool with barely $1 million of daily volume was enough, and it is the protocol's second collateral-pricing failure this year.
Arcus's pTokens give the holder a pro-rata claim on a managed perpetuals account at a fixed leverage level, and they move like any other spot asset, lending markets included. The chain underneath them went live eight weeks ago.
Rates run from 4% on plain stablecoin lending to the mid-teens on managed leverage. What separates them is no longer yield — it is who is legally responsible when something breaks.
The ARFC from Stani Kulechov would let institutional wallets borrow USDC, GHO or RLUSD against HINC, a tokenised high-yield credit fund, and give Horizon its first below-investment-grade asset.
A Treasury liquidity operation announced on 19 August, not a monetary pivot, triggered the biggest three-day bitcoin move since 2023. Short bitcoin positions built through months of range-bound trading were forced out at whatever bids remained.
The team blames an authorisation flaw in the Evmos stack its chain was built on. Rebuilding was impossible because Evmos itself was discontinued in May, so BB is moving to BNB Chain as a BEP-20 token.
The week ending Friday was the strongest for US spot bitcoin funds since October 2025. Fidelity took $293 million, VanEck's HODL bled $16 million.
Trading and deposits stopped in May. Anything not withdrawn by 14:00 UTC on Thursday will be sold by Kraken itself the following week.
The attacker bought a majority of a thinly held DAO token, then voted the vault contents to themselves. Term Labs shut down Meta Vault deposits and revoked governance roles in response.
SIMD-0525 shortens each epoch to 42 hours and rotates validators every 1.4 seconds. The change cuts confirmation latency without adding throughput; three more 50ms cuts are queued.
A hijacked LayerZero delegate on Base and BSC turned an approveAndCall into a mint function. Actual extraction came to about $675,000, but Upbit and Bithumb still halted SAND deposits.
Aaron Schnarch, once Coinbase Custody's chief, is running the Foundation, and the DAO has locked the remaining $38 million behind institutional-partner signings and V4 delivery.
