Tech　　THORChain Pauses Trading After Suspected $10M Exploit　　Early estimates suggest that more than $10 million may have been stolen, although the exploit has not yet been officially confirmed. The incident only adds to a series of previous operational and security issues surrounding the protocol.　　THORChain Hit by Suspected Exploit　　Cross-chain liquidity protocol THORChain temporarily trading activity after blockchain investigators raised concerns over a suspected exploit that may have impacted multiple blockchain networks, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, and Base.　　The incident was first pointed out by well-known on-chain security researchers ZachXBT and , who suspicious wallet activity tied to alleged theft addresses operating on Bitcoin and EVM-compatible chains. Early estimates suggest that the exploit may have resulted in losses of more than $10 million, although investigators made it clear that the attack had not yet been fully confirmed at the time of reporting.　　The latest disruption only adds to a growing list of operational and security-related that have surrounded THORChain over the past two years. The protocol is designed to facilitate decentralized cross-chain swaps without intermediaries, but it has come under scrutiny because of its role in facilitating large asset transfers between different blockchain ecosystems.　　While this functionality has made THORChain one of the more

Venom Foundation Introduces Protocol-Level Fee Burning to Reduce $VENOM Supply

Venom Foundation has announced a major protocol upgrade that introduces a fee-burning mechanism for the $VENOM token, a move designed to tie token supply more closely to actual network activity. Under the new system, 50 percent of qualifying network fees will be sent to an irreversible burn address and permanently removed from circulation.　　Unlike a buyback program, which depends on separate market activity and often sits outside the core protocol, Venoms burn mechanism is built directly into the network itself. That means every eligible transaction will automatically trigger the rule, with no manual intervention and no discretionary decision-making involved. Once tokens are burned, they cannot be recovered.　　The foundation says the design is intended to create a more transparent and usage-driven economic model. In practical terms, the more activity the network sees, the greater the amount of $VENOM that will be taken out of circulation. A slower period on the chain would naturally result in a smaller burn, while a busier period would accelerate the reduction in supply. Over time, that creates a feedback loop in which token economics reflect real network demand rather than only market sentiment or external speculation.　　Broader Technical Upgrade　　The upgrade also fits into Venoms existing technical architecture.

Thorchain Exploited? Trading Paused Amid Risk of Enormous Attack

Tech　　Thorchain Exploited？ Trading Paused Amid Risk of Enormous Attack　　Cross-chain DeFi protocol THORChain has suspended trading, following what appears to be a significant multi-chain exploit that may have depleted over $10 million in cryptocurrency assets. Suspicious withdrawals involving Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Base-linked assets have been reported by security researchers and on-chain investigators such as PeckShield.　　Early tracking data indicates that the attackers allegedly took about 36.75 BTC, or about $3 million, along with an additional $7 million in assets that were bridged across several chains. Both Bitcoin and Ethereum-compatible networks publicly known wallet addresses were linked to the stolen funds.　　Following the incident, THORChain stopped trading, probably to avoid further liquidity drains or cascading exploits across linked pools. Because THORChain serves as essential infrastructure for decentralized cross-chain swaps, disruptions may affect all of the ecosystems, wallets, aggregators, and liquidity suppliers.　　DeFi security is in trouble　　DeFi security is already experiencing hardship. Exploits, bridge attacks, governance breaches, and wallet-draining malware campaigns have plagued the industry in recent months. When a foundational liquidity layer fails, interconnected DeFi systems can quickly spread contagion, as demonstrated by recent attacks on major protocols.　　Bitcoin (BTC) Says Goodbye to $80,000, Dogecoin (DOGE) Spikes 50% Hinting at New Rally, Toncoin (TON)

Thorchain Loses Nearly $11M as Attackers Poison Vault Churn Process Across 4 Chains – Bitcoin News

Bitcoin　　Thorchain Loses Nearly $11M as Attackers Poison Vault Churn Process Across 4 Chains – Bitcoin News　　Onchain investigator ZachXBT first flagged the incident via his Telegram channel, placing initial losses above $7.4 million before revised estimates pushed the total higher. The breach hit vaults on , Ethereum, Smart Chain, and Base.　　The attack method centered on a vault churn, a standard Thorchain process in which operators rotate in and out while assets are redistributed using threshold signature schemes. Attackers appear to have injected malicious addresses into that process, tricking the system into authorizing transfers it should not have approved.　　Stolen assets include roughly 3,443 valued at $7.77 million, 36.85 worth approximately $2.97 million, 96.6 worth around $66,000, and additional tokens, including early reports of 798,000 USDC. Three theft addresses were publicly flagged across and Ethereum for tracking by security firms.　　operators responded quickly by triggering Thorchain‘s decentralized global emergency halt through the protocol’s Mimir governance settings. The halt suspended swaps, vault churning, and signing on affected chains beginning around block 26190429. RUNE transactions on the native chain continued in limited capacity.　　RUNE, Thorchain‘s native token, fell 12 to 15% within hours of ZachXBT’s alert. The token dropped from around $0.58 to roughly $0.50 across major

NASDAQ 100 extends losses with 2.1% drop as inflation fears rattle tech stocks

Tech　　NASDAQ 100 extends losses with 2.1% drop as inflation fears rattle tech stocks　　The NASDAQ 100 slid 2.1% in recent trading, extending a streak of losses that has rattled investors across both traditional equities and digital assets. The selloff hit information technology stocks hardest, with the sector leading the broader decline as Wall Street digests the uncomfortable reality that the Federal Reserve may not be cutting rates anytime soon.　　The broader Nasdaq Composite also dropped 1.39%, confirming this isnt just a narrow blip.　　Inflation data changes the calculus　　Recent US inflation prints came in hotter than expected, pushing back the timeline for rate cuts that many had treated as a near-certainty. Thats a problem for growth stocks, which are essentially long-duration bets on future earnings. When interest rates stay elevated, the present value of those future cash flows shrinks, making it harder to justify paying premium prices for companies whose biggest profits are years away.　　Tech stocks, which dominate the NASDAQ 100, are particularly sensitive to this dynamic. The index is heavily weighted toward companies that trade on growth expectations rather than current profitability.　　The selloff wasnt entirely uniform, though. Take-Two Interactive managed to buck the trend, rising 6.8% intraday even as the rest of the

Euro: Global Euro moment still unfulfilled – ING

Finance　　Euro: Global Euro moment still unfulfilled – ING　　ING‘s Carsten Brzeski argues that Europe has yet to earn its “global euro moment” outlined by European Central Bank (ECB) President Christine Lagarde in 2025. Despite progress on initiatives like the Savings and Investment Union and capital markets reforms, he stresses that fragmented capital markets and large, underused household savings continue to limit the Euro’s strategic international role.　　Structural savings and market fragmentation persist　　“And one year ago, ECB President Christine Lagarde stood in Berlin and declared that the fracturing global order had created Europe‘s ”global euro moment“: a rare chance to step up, earn influence, and reshape the international monetary system in Europe’s favour. Twelve months on, lets be honest: the optics are not good.”　　“And yet – to borrow from Monty Python‘s Life of Brian – what has Europe ever done for us？ Well, over the last 12 months: the Savings and Investment Union, launched in March 2025. A securitisation reform. A market integration and supervision package. Updated payment services rules. A Savings and Investment Accounts recommendation.
