🕵️ Arbitrum SC Member: Why We Used Emergency Powers to Freeze $72M Linked to North Korean Hackers
In an April 23 Coinage interview, Arbitrum Security Council member Griff Green explained the decision to freeze $72 million controlled by North Korean hackers. He emphasized that while inaction posed no risk to the council, the threat to DeFi necessitated immediate action.
The funds in a Layer 2 address allowed coordination with SEAL 911, leading to the first-ever 9-of-12 multi-sig emergency execution to transfer and freeze the assets. Green addressed concerns about individual interventions on-chain, stating that true checks and balances come from the market and token holders. link link

💸 3 straight days of $BTC ETF bleeding. The tape is whispering.
$BTC sitting around $76,550 after $137.77M in spot ETF outflows on April 29 — third consecutive red day.
IBIT shed $54.73M. FBTC -$36.13M.

Institutions are de-risking ahead of Powell's exit, while retail continues to bid. Two cohorts, opposite tape.
