Court rulings, lawsuits, settlements, indictments, and litigation involving crypto firms and protocols.
BlockFills carried $100M-$500M in liabilities against $50M-$100M in assets when it filed in March; Keyrock is buying the institutional client book and OTC stack for a fraction of that gap.
October's $50M+ loss proved unrecoverable: no new financing, no growth, and no path back — the protocol will keep running for user exits but stops building.
The October 2024 exploit drained $51M across Arbitrum and BNB Chain, and 18 months later the omnichain money market says it cannot raise fresh capital — another casualty in a record-breaking year for…
The Zodiac delay-module bug lets an attacker push transactions from affected Safe wallets — the second time in a week a module-based attack has drained funds from the Gnosis stack.
The seller swallowed a 2.3% discount worth $29.5M to move 29.21M shares in minutes — NYDIG argues no basis trade would accept that drag, and CME futures never blinked during the execution window.
The case marks the first major US insider-trading prosecution tied to a prediction market — and puts every employee trading on Polymarket on notice that non-corporate data still qualifies.
The lobbying group turned a disputed revenue figure into a political weapon against Kalshi and Polymarket — and pulled the Trump White House, 41 attorneys general, and a fracturing gambling lobby…
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has filed suit against the founder of Privvy, alleging a $12.3 million…
A U.S. federal judge has placed a temporary halt on the Trump administration's $1.8 billion "weaponization" fund while…
Another 2026 bridge exploit — but this one isn't a smart-contract bug. Researchers say the attacker walked in through the authorization layer, the same weak seam hit in Kelp DAO and Resolv earlier…
Only about 3% of investor money ever touched crypto, roughly $6.2M went to a home, gambling and travel, and an AI-generated auditor letter was used to stall withdrawals — the anatomy of a textbook…
The case is small in dollars but lands inside a long-running US labor-law push to make retaliation claims expensive to defend — even when the underlying dispute is trivial.
