Alchemix Finance is a future-yield-backed synthetic asset platform that allows users to leverage a range of tokens without the risk of liquidation.
DeFi lending protocol Alchemix has completed an update to its cross-chain infrastructure, with its old alUSD/alETH cross-chain bridges on Optimism and Arbitrum officially taken offline and replaced with a new cross-chain bridge compatible with v3 Alchemist. Alchemix disclosed that the DVN (Cross-Chain Transaction Verification) configuration has been updated synchronously, maintaining a 2/3 multi-signature confirmation mechanism for cross-chain transactions. Additionally, it has introduced Deutsche Telekom as a verification service provider to enhance the reliability of the cross-chain verification infrastructure.
According to on-chain analyst PeckShield (@PeckShieldAlert), a user’s Alchemix Yearn yvVault position (token $yvWETH) was attacked, resulting in an estimated loss of approximately $1 million. The root cause of the attack lies in the user’s prior approval grant to an unverified contract (contract address: 0x143a), deployed 10 days ago. Reverse-engineering analysis revealed that this contract contains a vulnerability enabling arbitrary call execution. Exploiting this vulnerability, the attacker successfully transferred the victim’s yvVault position. PeckShield has now publicly disclosed the specific logic of this vulnerability. Users are advised to review and revoke token approvals granted to unknown or unverified contracts to mitigate asset risks.
According to an official announcement, Binance has added ALCX, COOKIE, DODO, EPIC, HEI, HFT, STORJ, SYN, and TLM to its monitoring list.
According to an official announcement, following a recent review, Binance will add monitoring tags to the following tokens on May 22, 2026: Alchemix (ALCX), Cookie DAO (COOKIE), DODO (DODO), Epic Chain (EPIC), Heima (HEI), Hashflow (HFT), Storj (STORJ), Synapse (SYN), and Alien Worlds (TLM). Tokens with monitoring tags may exhibit higher volatility and risk compared to other listed tokens. Binance will closely monitor and continuously review these tokens. Trading these monitoring-tagged tokens carries risks, and these tokens may no longer meet the listing criteria, potentially leading to delisting.
