🏆 Top-10 biggest crypto hacks & exploits of this summer

In total, hackers drained $280M from the market. 🥷

The largest incident was the Nobitex hot wallet hack with losses of $82M 💸

🚀 $WLFI Trading Has Begun!

The hype around the Trump-family token is real:

💰 Trader 6ccDoT made $263,866 in just 10 minutes trading WLFI.
🐋 Whale 0xf30c opened a $2.2M long at 1x leverage.
💸 Investor 0xa2f2 took a $2.3M long at 3x leverage.

⚠️ Early volatility is reminiscent of $TRUMP token peaks.0 Insider wallets dominate, raising manipulation risks:

▪️Top 3 wallets control 50%+ of WLFI supply (Bubblemaps).
▪️Presale participants are moving tens of millions to exchanges (Lookonchain).

High rewards come with high risk—watch the market closely!

🔨 A solo Bitcoin miner just struck gold!

Against all odds, they successfully mined a block and pocketed 3.1 BTC (~$340K) in rewards 💰

Sometimes one rig is all it takes 🚀

The number of Bitcoin addresses holding 100+ BTC has just hit an all-time high 🐋🚀

Big players are stacking harder than ever — accumulation mode is on. 🤔

📈 Ethereum closed the last month of summer at its highest level since 2021 (44 months!).

🔹 RSI and MACD show a bullish trend, while CryptoQuant notes strong demand for ETH despite recent corrections.
🔹 On Binance, BTC reserves stay stable, but ETH reserves are shrinking — investors are prioritizing accumulation.
🔹 A Satoshi-era whale has already shifted $4B from BTC into ETH. 🐳

ETH momentum is growing — accumulation signals may be pointing to the next big move. 🚀

💥 The Trump family reportedly made $5B from launching the WLFI token (WSJ)

⚡️ Volatility is off the charts — at one point, WLFI even outpaced BTC in liquidations.

🤔 With such extreme swings and heavy insider advantage, the big question remains: is anyone outside insiders really profiting from this token?

📊 Raoul Pal predicts explosive crypto growth:

👥 By 2030, the number of crypto investors could reach 4 billion people.

💰 As adoption surges, the total crypto market cap is projected to break $100 trillion by 2032–2034.

If true, this would mark one of the largest financial shifts in history — positioning crypto as a core pillar of the global economy. 🚀

📊 Bitcoin is now trading exactly at the average cost basis of short-term holders

⚠️ This level acts as a key support zone — if broken, panic selling from this group could trigger stronger downside pressure.

All eyes on whether BTC can hold the line. 🔑

📉 Historically, September is Bitcoin’s weakest month with an average return of -3.12% (Coinglass).

⚠️ Extra pressure this month:

• Sept 5 – labor market data
• Sept 11 – inflation report
• Sept 17 – Fed meeting

Volatility ahead — September could once again test BTC’s resilience. 🧐

☠️ Hack Alert: Hackers are exploiting the EIP-7702 vulnerability to steal $WLFI!

Tokens are automatically drained from compromised wallets as soon as they arrive, leaving users racing against bots to withdraw their funds. Stay alert and double-check wallet security! 🔒

💥Today DeFi Disasters

1️⃣ Bunni DEX – $8.4M Exploit
Hackers exploited a flaw in Bunni’s Liquidity Distribution Function, draining ETH & stablecoins. All smart contracts paused; Uniswap v4 safe.

2️⃣ Venus Protocol – $30M Loss
Not a hack, but a user error: phishing tricked a trader into approving malicious transfers, losing $30M in vUSDT, vUSDC & BTCB. Funds remain in attacker’s contract.

🚨 Takeaways: Withdraw funds from risky platforms, revoke approvals, use hardware wallets, and always double-check links. In DeFi, one mistake—human or technical—can cost millions. 🤷

🛠 Ethereum Testnet Update

Ethereum is shutting down its largest testnet, Holesky, after the upcoming Fusaka fork in late September. Active since Sept 2023, Holesky tested staking and updates like Dencun & Pectra.

The new testnet Hoodi is now live and will serve as the main playground for future upgrades. For smart contract & dApp testing, Sepolia is recommended. 🧐

Looking ahead:

▪️Nov 2025: Fusaka hard fork → faster, cheaper rollups
▪️2026: Glamsterdam upgrade → block time cut to 6s ⏱️
