The cross-chain routing protocol Squid stated on platform X that the SquidRouterModule involved in the attack disclosed by Blockaid was neither developed, deployed, nor operated by Squid, but rather a third-party Gnosis Safe module that chose to integrate with protocols like Squid, with no prior connection between the two parties.Squid indicated that this third-party module has a vulnerability that accepts a fixed string provided by the caller as message security verification. The attacker exploited this string, which is publicly visible in the verified code of the contract, to execute arbitrary call data and steal funds. Squid's own routing contract (0xce16F) is architecturally completely different from this module and is unaffected; user funds, authorizations, and integrations are all secure.

According to CoinDesk, several researchers in the fields of post-quantum cryptography and blockchain security have stated that AI is accelerating the development of quantum computing and forcing the encryption industry to reassess the reliability of existing security systems.Project Eleven CEO Alex Pruden pointed out that researchers are using machine learning to optimize quantum error correction—one of the biggest engineering bottlenecks in the field of quantum computing. NEAR Protocol co-founder and former Google AI researcher Illia Polosukhin warned that the "harvest now, decrypt later" strategy has become a real threat, where attackers collect encrypted traffic now and decrypt it later when quantum computers mature, "this is likely already happening."Since most blockchain networks rely on the same elliptic curve cryptography as the internet, once quantum computers become powerful enough, they could theoretically derive private keys from public keys, thereby compromising wallets and systems. Researchers noted that the combination of AI and quantum computing is creating a continuous arms race in security, where security measures will no longer be static infrastructure but must continuously evolve and upgrade. Currently, multiple blockchain ecosystems such as Ethereum, Solana, and NEAR are actively promoting post-quantum cryptography migration solutions.

According to GoPlus analysis, the stablecoin protocol StablR had security issues with its multi-signature contract settings on Ethereum (multi-signature threshold of 1), and the holder's private key was stolen, resulting in StablR $EURR and $USDR stablecoins being depegged by 20%. The attacker has profited approximately $2.8 million.

"On-chain detective" ZachXBT disclosed on his personal channel that two contracts related to the European stablecoin issuer StablR may have been attacked, with potential losses exceeding $3 million (EURR and USDR). The source of the attacker's funds was through the CCTP platform on Noble. Additionally, ZachXBT revealed 7 attacker addresses currently associated with this security incident.

Grayscale has released its latest research report, with Grayscale's research director Zach Pandl stating that as the CLARITY Act progresses and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) provides clearer guidelines, tokenized assets and blockchain applications such as decentralized finance (DeFi) may see development.Grayscale believes that Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, and Canton Network, which currently dominate financial activities on relevant chains, may be the first to attract institutional capital. The article states that in the fields of tokenized assets, stablecoins, and DeFi, Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain are in leading positions, while Canton Network also holds a significant share in the direction of tokenized assets.

According to Bloomberg, the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE, the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange) is collaborating with the cryptocurrency trading platform OKX to launch perpetual futures contracts linked to crude oil.According to statements from both parties, ICE's Brent crude oil and WTI crude oil futures prices will serve as the pricing basis for the related perpetual contracts. The product will be launched in regions where OKX is licensed to offer perpetual contract trading.

According to analyst Darkfost (@Darkfost_Coc) in a social media post, since the event on October 10 last year, Bitcoin has undergone a long de-leveraging phase in the derivatives market. When open interest falls below the 180-day moving average, it usually indicates a decline in futures activity, and investors' risk-off behavior leads to a reduction in open interest. Affected by the deterioration of the global macroeconomic and geopolitical backdrop, traders generally choose to reduce their risk exposure.This de-leveraging phase on Binance has lasted for about 8 months, with the last similar occurrence dating back to the previous bear market in 2022, just before the FTX collapse. However, since early May, the trend seems to be changing. Open interest on Binance has risen from $6.4 billion in March to about $8.96 billion currently, re-establishing itself above the current 180-day moving average of approximately $8.75 billion. This effectively marks the end of the de-leveraging cycle.The return of investors to the derivatives market has clearly driven the current upward rebound, but it is still too early to call it a true recovery. Despite the continued deterioration of the macro environment, Bitcoin's significant pullback has attracted more speculative traders seeking rebound opportunities. It should be noted that this trend remains highly fragile; once Bitcoin resumes the adjustment trend that began last October, these traders may exit as quickly as they entered.

The U.S. government, through the Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), has initiated a multi-agency coordinated financial action aimed at systematically targeting Iran's domestic digital asset infrastructure, with the goal of dismantling Tehran's parallel shadow banking system. According to officially disclosed information, this operation has successfully identified and incapacitated a large interconnected digital wallet network directly controlled by the Iranian regime, and has immediately frozen nearly $500 million in sovereign-related crypto assets.The U.S. intends to disrupt Iran's ability to bypass long-standing Western trade embargoes by blocking these alternative capital channels, cutting off its resources to regional proxy networks, and systematically weakening the regime's ability to transfer or repatriate wealth outside the oversight of traditional global clearing institutions. The focus of this enforcement action is to systematically identify state-sponsored large cryptocurrency trading portals, which have quietly evolved into core nodes for evading sanctions.Federal intelligence reports indicate that these regional platforms have processed billions of dollars in high-frequency digital asset transactions, heavily relying on mainstream stablecoins and high-throughput alternative blockchain networks to obscure their illegal settlement flows. Under the newly implemented executive directive, the Treasury is actively blacklisting specific crypto addresses, tracking mining pool variables, and imposing sanctions on foreign technology providers that facilitate these state-supported networks.Additionally, the U.S. is leveraging its dominant position in international banking to compel foreign financial intermediaries to fully comply with its aggressive crypto asset control protocols. The Treasury has issued stern warnings to international technology centers that any platform providing clearing services or liquidity assistance to designated Iranian digital entities will face immediate risks of exclusion from the U.S. financial system.This comprehensive containment model shifts regulatory responsibility to global exchanges, forcing them to deploy advanced real-time blockchain analysis tools to programmatically identify and block any inbound transactions originating from Iranian internet protocol or historical wallet clusters. By installing these stringent crypto safeguards at the level of global gateways, the U.S. government is transforming permissionless distributed ledgers into highly controlled economic zones, ensuring that alternative payment infrastructures cannot be used to undermine broader Western geopolitical security objectives in the next decade.
