Uniswap Labs has announced the launch of Aggregator Hooks, bringing aggregation capabilities to Uniswap v4. The mechanism uses Hooks to wrap external liquidity sources as v4 pools and is now live on the Uniswap web app and API, covering Ethereum mainnet, Base, and Robinhood Chain. On the first day, it supports 7 external sources including Curve, Fluid, and PancakeSwap, with more networks to be added gradually. Per-block routing will fetch the latest quotes from integrated sources, build the optimal path between Uniswap pools and external sources, and settle within a single transaction without requiring new approvals; the related swaps will incur a protocol fee, which will be used for UNI burning.
BNB Chain has announced that the Jenner hard fork upgrade will go live on the BNB Smart Chain testnet on October 28. This upgrade will introduce the Payment Lane feature, which reserves 5% of block Gas capacity by default for eligible payment transactions; support for millisecond-level block timestamps in smart contracts; and functional support for the new compliant asset standard CAS20, with specific arrangements for the rollout of related features to be announced separately.BNB Chain reminds validators, node operators, block builders, and application developers to prepare for the upgrade in advance. Testnet node operators must switch to a compatible client before the upgrade is activated, while developers should check the impact of these changes on applications and development tools.
In an announcement posted on October 22 via Pirate Chain’s official X account (@PirateChain), the team released mandatory update v6.0.14. On October 14, attackers exploited two verification vulnerabilities to mint approximately 39.82 million fake ARRR in the transparent coinbase pool, temporarily inflating the supply by about 20%. Following a consensus reached by the community, node operators, mining pools, exchanges, and dPoW notarizers, the chain was rolled back to block height 4,176,944 (October 14 at 19:55:14 UTC, prior to the attack). Version 6.0.14 automatically rejects the exploited blocks and all subsequent blocks, completely removing the counterfeit coins, while the maximum supply of ARRR remains unchanged at 200 million. dPoW notarizers have agreed to continue notarizing the patched chain, and old forks will no longer receive notarization. The team requires all users, Treasure Chest and CLI node operators, miners, mining pools, exchanges, and service providers to immediately deactivate the outdated version and upgrade.
SlowMist monitoring reveals that LiteLLM has once again been targeted by a supply chain attack.

Odaily reports: The crypto project Cysic has announced that its cross-chain bridge was paused on Saturday after an attacker exploited a processing flaw to mint 10 million CYS tokens without authorization on BNB Smart Chain. Preliminary investigations indicate that the attacker may have gained unauthorized access to the database supporting the bridge.The unauthorized minting occurred at 12:31:38 UTC, and Cysic blacklisted the receiving address in the token contract at 13:47:52. The address currently still holds approximately 2.8 million CYS, and related transfers have been restricted.Cysic stated that the incident only involved cross-chain bridge message processing and token minting, and did not affect the mainnet or other operating systems, nor did it result in the theft or unauthorized transfer of existing CYS or other assets in user wallets. Token transfers, swaps, and actual losses are still under review, and the company has engaged security firms and plans to release a follow-up report. (Cointelegraph)
According to Digital Today, Toss Insight, the financial research institute under South Korean fintech platform Toss, released a report titled "DeFi · Tokenized Assets: The Bridge Between Traditional Finance and On-Chain Finance" on October 16. The report indicates that as of early September 2026, the tokenized assets market size was approximately $39.1 billion. Among these, credit products such as U.S. Treasuries, money market funds (MMFs), and corporate loans collectively accounted for about 61%. The report points out that the market is currently concentrated on products with stable yields and high suitability as collateral. While tokenization has lowered investment thresholds, investment eligibility may still be restricted due to product structures and regulations across different jurisdictions. For example, most currently tokenized U.S. equities utilize a cash settlement structure, meaning investors do not actually hold the underlying shares. Tokenized Treasuries and funds are also predominantly open only to accredited investors.
