The latest in Ethereum.
Crypto has spent years building increasingly sophisticated financial infrastructure while ignoring one embarrassingly basic problem: users often have no idea what they’re approving when they sign transactions. Every day across decentralized finance, NFT platforms, staking protocols, gaming ecosystem
The Ethereum Foundation is undergoing another major leadership transition as it prepares for one of the network’s most closely watched technical upgrades. The organization announced significant changes inside its Protocol Cluster, naming Will Corcoran, Kev Wedderburn, and Fredrik Svantes as new co-l
Crypto hacks usually end in one of two ways: the attacker disappears forever, or law enforcement spends years chasing wallets across chains with little to show for it. This week, a far stranger outcome played out in DeFi. A hacker who exploited Arbitrum dark pool protocol Renegade and drained roughl
Crypto markets have become conditioned to treat government wallets as potential volatility triggers. Every time a known federal address moves funds, traders immediately begin asking whether a liquidation event is underway. That paranoia resurfaced this week after blockchain intelligence platform Ark
DeFi has spent years hardening its flagship smart contracts. Hackers have noticed, and they’re increasingly attacking everything built around them instead. That trend was on full display after crypto liquidity provider TrustedVolumes confirmed it lost roughly $6.7 million in a fresh exploit and is
For years, consortium blockchains were sold as the sober, enterprise-friendly version of crypto: less chaotic than public chains, more collaborative than private databases, and supposedly ideal for banks, supply-chain groups, insurers, governments, and regulated industries. Vitalik Buterin’s latest
What started as a straightforward recovery effort after one of crypto’s biggest recent hacks has now turned into a legal nightmare involving Arbitrum, Kelp DAO, North Korea-related litigation, and a growing debate over whether DAOs can safely intervene during crises. At the center of the controversy
When DeFi breaks, it doesn’t fail quietly, it cascades. Smart contracts unravel, collateral evaporates, and confidence disappears faster than liquidity in a bank run. That’s exactly the scenario the ecosystem faced after the KelpDAO exploit, a targeted attack that left holders of rsETH exposed and th
The claim is dramatic: a Bitcoin conference with only a few dozen attendees, missing speakers, and an early shutdown. In an industry that thrives on hype cycles and spectacle, that kind of headline spreads fast. But does it reflect reality, or is it an outlier being mistaken for a trend? To understan
For an industry built on the promise of trustless systems and cryptographic certainty, the numbers tell a different story. Over the past decade, crypto hackers have siphoned off more than $17 billion across 518 separate incidents, according to DeFiLlama. That breaks down to an average of roughly $33
The long-anticipated push to bring structure to the U.S. crypto market has run straight into the oldest obstacle in Washington: politics. What was once framed as a bipartisan effort to finally define digital asset regulation is now entangled in a high-stakes standoff, with Senate Democrats refusing
In a move that signals a maturing, and increasingly interconnected, DeFi landscape, Mantle has proposed lending up to 30,000 ETH to Aave DAO. The goal is clear: stabilize fallout from the recent rsETH bridge exploit and contain bad debt before it spreads further across the ecosystem. At first glance,
