Layerzero Discloses RPC Poisoning Incident Linked to $292M KelpDAO Hack

Layerzero Labs Apologizes for Lazarus Group Security Breach Response　　Layerzero Labs issued a candid apology for a three-week communication silence following a security breach involving the Lazarus Group. According to an official update, the attackers poisoned the source of truth for internal Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) used by the Layerzero Labs Decentralized Verifier Network (DVN).　　This sophisticated hit coincided with a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack against the firms external RPC provider. The fallout, according to the report, was contained to a small fraction of the ecosystem. Layerzero noted that the incident impacted a single application, representing 0.14% of total apps and 0.36% of the total value locked on the protocol.　　Since April 19, the team detailed that it has been working with external security partners to finalize a comprehensive post-mortem report. The team further admitted to a significant oversight in allowing their DVN to act as a solo verifier for high-value transactions. Layerzero also acknowledged that they failed to police what their DVN was securing, which created a “single point of failure” risk.　　To rectify this, the lab is now educating developers on safe configurations and will no longer service 1/1 DVN setups. The disclosure also addressed a bizarre security lapse involving

Stablecoin execs warn on hard part ahead

Executives from MoonPay, Ripple, and Paxos said at Consensus Miami 2026 that stablecoin regulation has accelerated institutional adoption but that major infrastructure and privacy gaps still block mainstream use.MoonPay VP Richard Harrison said the GENIUS Act gave firms a regulatory permission slip, accelerating traditional finance entry into stablecoins.Ripple SVP Jack McDonald argued that institutional adoption depends on regulated products, trusted custody, and utility beyond market capitalisation.Paxos engineer Brent Perrault warned that unresolved privacy issues on public blockchains remain a significant barrier to enterprise-scale stablecoin payments.　　Top executives at three of the most active stablecoin companies told the Consensus Miami 2026 audience on May 8 that new US regulation has fundamentally changed the competitive landscape for dollar-pegged tokens, bringing traditional financial institutions into a market that was previously difficult for them to enter. The shift, however, has exposed a new set of problems the industry has yet to solve.　　Richard Harrison, MoonPays vice president of banking and payment partnerships, said the passage of the GENIUS Act gave firms across traditional finance a regulatory framework to operate within. “What GENIUS brought us was clarity,” Harrison told the panel, noting that traditional finance firms are now entering stablecoins at a faster pace because compliance is

Binance reports 77% of users in emerging markets treat exchanges like banking apps

Binances user base has undergone a quiet but dramatic demographic shift. The exchange now counts 77% of its users from emerging markets, up from 49% in 2020.　　The numbers behind the banking shift　　73% of stablecoin savers on Binance are located in emerging markets. In English: nearly three out of four people using the platform to store dollar-denominated value live in countries where the local currency might lose purchasing power faster than you can refresh a price chart.　　The engagement metrics go deeper. 24% of active users now utilize two or more services on the platform, while 14% use three or more. Of that most-engaged cohort, 83% are from emerging markets.　　Why traditional banking lost the race　　Globally, 1.4 billion adults still lack access to basic financial services. Traditional banks never solved this problem because the economics didn‘t work. Opening branches in rural Nigeria or remote Indonesia costs money. Maintaining compliance infrastructure for small-balance accounts costs more money. The result: banks simply didn’t show up.　　Binances pitch is straightforward. A smartphone app with 24/7 access, no minimum balance requirements, and cross-border functionality baked in.　　Regulatory tightrope and market integrity concerns　　Binance has faced persistent scrutiny over illicit fund flows and market manipulation practices across its platform.

US imposes sanctions on 14 individuals and entities aiding Irans weapons sector

OFAC designated 8 individuals, 4 companies, and 2 aircraft in this latest action. The targets are spread across Iran, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates.　　Among the most notable names: Pishgam Electronic Safeh Company and its CEO, Hamid Reza Janghorbani. The company is accused of playing a role in Irans procurement networks for missile and drone technology.　　Actors associated with Mahan Air, Iran‘s privately owned airline that has been on Washington’s radar for years over allegations of ferrying weapons and military personnel, were also caught in the net. The designations fall under Executive Order 13382, which targets proliferation networks, and Executive Order 13224, which focuses on terrorism financing.　　The practical effect is straightforward: all US-held property belonging to these entities is now frozen. Any American individual or company doing business with them faces severe legal consequences. And because of the way secondary sanctions work, non-US companies that transact with these targets risk being cut off from the American financial system too.　　The ‘Economic Fury’ campaign in context　　This round of sanctions sits within a broader initiative Washington has branded “Economic Fury.” The campaign kicked off after the UN reimposed sanctions on Iran on September 27, 2025, citing violations of Tehrans nuclear program commitments.　　Since then, the
