Cronos validators halted the Crypto.com-linked chain on Sunday after an exploit at Tectonic, the network’s largest lending protocol. Onchain researcher Weilin Li estimates about $75 million was affected after TONIC was pumped roughly 100x in 20 minutes and used as collateral. Only about $6 million was bridged to Ethereum before the halt; most remaining assets are stranded on Cronos. Tectonic TVL fell from about $121.7 million to roughly $3...

Maya Protocol halted its MAYAChain network after an attacker drained roughly $1.7 million using six chained software bugs. The attacker withdrew 48.87 million CACAO and moved about 20.83 BTC worth approximately $1.34 million off-chain. CACAO fell nearly 89% from around $0.115 to a low of $0.013 before partial recovery. Founder AaluxxMyth confirmed the incident and said the team is working to fix the issues and recover fully. Liquidity pool...

Harmony confirmed an exploit that allowed unauthorized minting of approximately 4 billion ONE tokens, equal to about 26% of the existing supply. ONE price dropped as much as 40% in Asian trading, briefly hitting an all-time low near $0.00057 before recovering partially. Roughly 2.8 billion newly minted tokens moved to exchanges; the team is coordinating freezes and evaluating a potential chain rollback. Harmony confirmed on Wednesday that...

Galaxy Research has high confidence that 1,596 BTC (over $100 million) was stolen from roughly 7,300 addresses across three confirmed attack waves plus 14 smaller incidents. Including a suspected fourth wave would raise the total to about 2,055 BTC, or roughly $130 million. At least 15 separate attackers are now exploiting the vulnerability; 90% of stolen coins have not moved. Coinkite has released emergency firmware updates and urged users...
