XRP Price Battles $1.30 as $2.77B Futures Market Loses Momentum

XRP’s price is fighting to hold $1.29 as its $2.77 billion futures market loses momentum and sellers maintain control. Technical indicators favor further weakness, yet oversold readings suggest a recovery isn’t entirely off the table. Meanwhile, Polymarket traders assign a 50% probability to XRP touching $1.20 before November, while Kalshi’s October contracts reflect fading expectations for a substantial rebound.

Cysic crypto bridge halted after unauthorized mint of 10M CYS

Cysic crypto bridge halted after unauthorized mint of 10M CYS
Cysic said the incident was limited to bridge message processing and minting and did not affect the mainnet or other operational systems. Cysic is investigating an unauthorized issuance on BNB Smart Chain and said the mint size alone does not establish the incident’s dollar impact. The company said in a Sunday X incident report that its cross-chain bridge was suspended after an attacker exploited a processing flaw to mint 10 million CYS on BNB Smart Chain on Saturday, with preliminary findings pointing to unauthorized access to a database supporting the bridge.

Qubic Loses $1.3 Million in Wallet Raid Before Network Halts

An overnight cryptocurrency theft emptied 1,404 Qubic wallets of approximately 2.94 trillion QU, worth $1.3 million, before validators halted the network. The apparent culprit wasn’t a blockchain vulnerability but predictable wallet seeds generated by older Apple devices and browsers. With most stolen tokens trapped on the paused network and another portion frozen by MEXC, the fate of victims’ funds now rests with Qubic’s validators.
