Decentralized exchanges, AMMs, perpetual DEXs, and on-chain orderbooks — volume, TVL, and DEX activity.
An on-chain trader identified as 0xf01d has opened a 5x leveraged long position on 4.58 million ONDO tokens, equivalent…
An oracle is the layer DeFi assumes is always there; when Pyth's mainnet feeds go dark, every perp, lending book, and liquidation engine reading them has to make a call on whether to keep trading or…
On-chain investigator ZachXBT has flagged a suspected exploit involving the UMA adapter contract used by Polymarket…
L2Beat rebuilt the Lighter L2 proof stack from source — including its L1 verifier — so users can withdraw even if the sequencer goes dark or turns hostile.
An Ethereum user paid 89 ETH, equivalent to roughly $190,530, in transaction fees for a single on-chain operation. The…
On-chain data from HypurrScan shows whale address 0xde42 sold 50,000 $HYPE tokens worth approximately $2.41 million…
The bill's headline digital-asset market structure looks set to clear, but the DeFi provisions were rewritten hours before the vote — and the industry is still parsing what that means.
The launch turns non-custodial, no-identity-check token swaps into a five-endpoint Bearer-auth REST integration — and lets every partner keep 0–4% of the spread as USDT.
A compromised admin key let the attacker mint 1,000 unauthorised eBTC and launder proceeds through Tornado Cash — the latest in a string of mega-exploits now totaling hundreds of millions across DeFi.
The contracts worked exactly as written — the problem was operational. As shared bridge infrastructure concentrates, a single LayerZero-adjacent weakness can cascade across the protocols sitting on…
The position is a 10x leveraged short on 175,082 HYPE ($7.62M notional) — funded with a freshly bridged 8.8M USDC and still being added to, signaling conviction rather than a tactical scalp.
Four products including Kraken Bitcoin have already swapped LayerZero cross-chain rails in the wake of the Kelp DAO attack, and a $2.57B combined TVL is the real signal of how much weight is moving.
The deal gives Coinbase treasury control over the $5B USDC pool on crypto's fastest-growing perp DEX — and the right to absorb the rival USDH brand before it sunsets.
Two deep-pocketed wallets — one laddering limit orders across $30.88 to $35.88, the other filling a 62,230-HYPE block — landed within hours of each other, a coordinated bid at a time when HYPE's…
A dormant Ethereum pre-mine address holding 790 ETH — valued at roughly $1.78 million today — has been activated after…
Near-parity resets the competition for onchain volume: both chains are positioned to absorb the next rotation, and the L1 race now runs on market share rather than narrative.
The shift ends five years of standalone sidechain operation and slashes RON inflation from over 20% to below 1%, but the roughly 10-hour outage window is the first real test.
A Bitcoin address that had sat untouched for 12.5 years was activated this week, moving 500 BTC now valued at…
Three protocols with $2.3B combined just walked — the first measurable TVL migration since LayerZero admitted a Lazarus-linked RPC exploit and a 1/1 DVN misconfiguration.
Six chains each hold under 7% of DeFi TVL, but their combined share is what has drained Ethereum from 63.5% to roughly 54% — a fragmentation driven by function, not by Ethereum losing users outright.
