Odaily reports: Trader Bonk Guy (@theunipcs) posted that Robinhood's latest earnings results represent a major positive for the on-chain ecosystem, with Robinhood Chain playing a key role in the growth of its crypto business revenue. Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev also explicitly expressed positive expectations for the future development of its on-chain business.Bonk Guy further noted that PONS currently holds approximately 88% market share of the Robinhood Chain token launchpad. If the Robinhood Chain ecosystem has already bottomed out, PONS is well-positioned to capture a significant share of future capital flowing into the ecosystem, and he expressed strong bullishness on PONS's subsequent performance.
Analyst Darkfost posted that the largest Bitcoin UTXO spending activity since 2026 has occurred on-chain, with cumulative spending of UTXOs each valued at over $1 million exceeding $21 billion, involving more than 230,000 BTC, and the related operations likely came from the same entity. Among them, most UTXOs had previously been dormant for 1 to 6 months, while another approximately $4.6 billion came from long-term holders (LTHs) who had held for 1 to 3 years.Darkfost noted that these bitcoins were likely mainly transferred between different addresses, and there are currently no obvious signs of flows to exchanges, so this cannot be used to judge large-scale selling. If the subsequent spending of the relevant UTXOs corresponds to realized profits or losses, on-chain realized profit and loss metrics may show significant changes.

On-chain analyst PeckShield (@PeckShieldAlert) has tracked an address flagged as the Cysic attacker depositing 300 ETH (approximately $721,140) and 30.4 BNB (approximately $22,590) into Tornado Cash. According to the Cysic Foundation, a security incident involving the Cysic cross-chain bridge occurred on October 17, during which the attacker minted 10 million CYS tokens without authorization on the BNB Chain.
Odaily Report: Crypto analyst The Smart Ape posted on X platform that data shows Robinhood Chain's daily Gas fees dropped from $8.4 million on September 4 to $34,000 on October 18, a decline of 99.6%. Comparing the most active 14 consecutive days with the most recent 14 days, Pons V2 fee revenue fell from $87 million to $7 million (-92%), GMGN from $22 million to $900,000 (-96%), and Axiom from $4.6 million to $300,000 (-94%). Additionally, the median price decline of Meme coins on the chain from their all-time highs reached 97%, with 72% of Meme coins falling by 90% or more.However, Robinhood Chain still had 873,000 active wallets last week, Gas fee revenue of approximately $345,000, and TVL hit an all-time high of $1.05 billion, of which about $480 million is concentrated in two stablecoin lending markets on Morpho, primarily involving leveraged arbitrage trading. Therefore, it is judged that the high-risk speculative capital on Robinhood Chain has clearly receded, with retained funds more concentrated in scenarios such as stablecoin lending, and there is a clear divergence between on-chain capital activity and TVL growth.
According to official reports, privacy blockchain project Pirate Chain disclosed that it suffered a transaction verification vulnerability exploit, resulting in the unauthorized minting of approximately 39.8 million ARRR and an increase in the total token supply of about 20%. The attacker transferred the newly minted funds into the Sapling shielded pool, after which part of the funds flowed into the NonKYC exchange, with related deposit accounts restricted from withdrawals; due to the shielding features of the transactions, the complete subsequent flow of funds cannot be traced.
Odaily News: According to Bitcoin News monitoring, Bitcoin News released a podcast in which former Mt. Gox CEO Mark Karpelès and Foundation CEO Zach Herbert discussed the largest supply chain attack in crypto industry history. Mark Karpelès stated that he discovered the spy implant 3 weeks before the funds were stolen and contacted Ledger, but received no response. The implant had a built-in hidden cellular modem that could directly read the seed phrase on the screen and passed Ledger's own checks; even setting a passphrase could not prevent the seed phrase from being stolen. Mark Karpelès said that with $5 million, he could create an implant that would only be detectable through X-ray. The episode also discussed the hardware wallet reseller model, the Malaysian reseller behind the attack, on-chain tracking of stolen crypto assets, the spread of the attack to Europe, why Trezor was not targeted, hardware wallet security, and multi-party computation solutions. The episode timeline shows that the amount stolen from hardware wallets reached $100 million, with $86 million transferred out within 24 hours.
Odaily reports: Trader Bonk Guy posted on X platform that despite a recent decline in PONS revenue, PONS remains the highest-fee and highest-revenue project in the Robinhood chain ecosystem across multiple timeframes including 24-hour, 3-day, and 7-day periods.Bonk Guy believes that the revenue decline is primarily driven by an overall drop in activity across the Robinhood chain, rather than a weakening of the project's own competitiveness. He stated that the Robinhood chain ecosystem may have reached a cyclical bottom, and if on-chain activity recovers, PONS revenue could resume growth and potentially become one of the leading tokens in the next ecosystem rally.
According to monitoring by CryptoQuant analyst nocoffeenobrain, coins with a holding age of 1–3 years and over 3 years began showing signs of activity as early as late September, coinciding with BTC prices rising from the mid-$70,000 range to the mid-$80,000 range. Following the recent Ledger hack, which prompted numerous users to migrate assets to new signing devices and replace their seed phrases, the 7-day moving average is expected to climb further over the next few days. The analyst noted that a similar pattern occurred previously: during January to February this year, when BTC dropped from $90,000 to the mid-$60,000 range, and between July and August while BTC consolidated around the mid-$60,000 range, both of these holding age cohorts exhibited synchronized activity.
Odaily News: Crypto analyst Darkfost posted that following the security incident involving Ledger reseller CryptoBilis, other potentially related reseller names have emerged in community discussions, including some Lazada merchants.Darkfost stated that the full scope of the incident remains difficult to confirm. Although Ledger has confirmed a connection to the CryptoBilis incident, it is still unclear whether CryptoBilis is the only affected reseller. He compiled a list of potentially risky Ledger resellers, noting that due to their regional proximity, there is a possibility that their supply chains were compromised simultaneously. However, Darkfost emphasized that these assessments are speculative and have not yet been confirmed.Darkfost advised that if users have purchased Ledger devices from the relevant resellers within the past 6 months, they may consider moving their assets to other secure devices before the investigation concludes. He also noted that users can refer to a guide published by security researcher MagicalTux to check their Ledger devices for signs of tampering.
Analyst Jake Koch-Gallup posted that Ethereum's liquidity moat has not been breached, citing five reasons: first, ETH is not only a medium of exchange but also possesses reserve and collateral asset attributes; second, Ethereum still accounts for 65% of DeFi TVL, with the Layer 2 ecosystem continuing to expand, covering networks such as Base and Robinhood Chain; third, although Ethena's USDe share on Ethereum has dropped from 88% to 56%, Ethereum remains its largest network; fourth, while the stablecoin share has declined to 51%, if the overall market cap reaches $3 trillion, Ethereum capturing even 30% would see its stablecoin volume surge from the current $15.5 billion to nearly $1 trillion; fifth, Ethereum maintains over a decade of uninterrupted operation, a dominant developer ecosystem, a 36% staking rate, and continues to lead in institutional adoption and RWA activity, keeping its fundamentals firmly intact.
Odaily News: According to monitoring by Galaxy's head of research, the Bitcoin losses caused by the Ledger cryptocurrency supply chain attack currently amount to 213.42 BTC, valued at $17.7 million. Of this, 92% of the funds were transferred in less than 90 days ago, while some funds were transferred even earlier. All Bitcoin traced so far remains unspent and is held in 3 aggregation addresses.
Odaily News: According to PeckShield monitoring, the attacker behind 79AU's operational hot wallet 79thVault has returned 15,000 BNB, worth approximately $11 million, to a wallet address designated by the project team. Additionally, the attacker had previously deposited 30 BNB into KuCoin. The disposition of the remaining funds is currently unclear. Earlier, 79thVault on BNB Chain suffered losses of approximately $12.5 million, possibly due to a private key leak. The team's operational hot wallet typically only makes small transfers to the reward pool, but recently the address transferred 2.01 million 79AU from trading pairs to external addresses in 7 transactions, with amounts of 10,000, 100,000, 100,000, 300,000, 500,000, 500,000, and 500,000 tokens respectively.

Odaily Report: CZ posted a meme on the X platform this morning with the caption "Soon....", and also forwarded a bullish tweet about BNB Chain, which stated that tokenized U.S. stock assets have already been put on-chain, and that BNB Chain is one of the major participants, with advantages including low Gas fees, roughly 0.45-second block times, over 2 million daily active users, and approximately 17 million daily transactions, based on which it argued that BNB Chain will become a market focus in 2026.In response, well-known trader Bonk Guy said CZ is very likely hinting at a potentially explosive "BNB szn" rally, and also said that users should not claim later, when the market starts heating up, that they had not been given a heads-up, adding that "the hint has already been given, you just did not notice it."
