Pons announces V2 upgrade plan, focusing on adjustments to liquidity mechanisms, fee structures, and token graduation processes. The new version will introduce an ETH-denominated bonding curve, remove trading restrictions for regular users, and limit developer wallet permissions through global configuration.
According to Odaily, Pons, a token launch platform on Robinhood Chain, will release its v2 version, planning to introduce multiple feature updates.It is reported that Pons v2 will introduce a Bonding Curve mechanism denominated in ETH, remove trading restrictions for non-developer wallets, and support custom trading pairs, including RWA assets such as USDG, NVDA, AAPL, and HOOD.Additionally, Pons will adopt Uniswap V4 pools and Hooks to redesign the fee structure, with creators receiving fees in ETH by default. When the token value reaches 4.2 ETH, it will automatically graduate to a permanently locked Uniswap V4 full-range position.Other updates include a new CTO function with a 3-day timelock, support for charging fees in stablecoins or other tokens, and an optional tax mechanism for each buy and sell transaction.
DeFi infrastructure company Enso disclosed a type of malicious liquidity pool called "toxic pools" in a report on July 16th. These pools manipulate transaction simulations to return false optimal quotes to wallets and DEX aggregators, subsequently altering the logic during actual on-chain execution. Enso stated that the relevant malicious contracts can identify read-only simulation environments and return optimized prices, but when the transaction is broadcast on-chain, it is executed at a worse price or causes the transaction to fail. One manipulated Curve pool processed over 129,000 swaps, resulting in approximately $225,000 in inflated quotes. Additionally, over 37,000 transactions were reverted, consuming nearly $30,000 in gas fees. On Polygon, a malicious Uniswap v4 hook attracted routing systems with fake exchange rates, subsequently triggering a 99.1% transaction failure rate. Enso stated that it has updated its execution protection product, Enso Shield, to detect fake quotes in Ethereum and Polygon environments.
Curve Finance has announced the official launch of its lending product, LlamaLend V2, on the Ethereum Layer 2 network Optimism.

Curve Finance has launched its lending protocol Llamalend v2 on Optimism as the first phase of a major upgrade, with plans to deploy it on the Ethereum mainnet in the second half of 2026. The new version removes the restriction of only supporting crvUSD, allowing nearly any combination of collateral and lending assets, and introduces LlamaRisk to handle collateral assessment and market management. Users can stake Curve LP tokens as collateral, borrowing funds while retaining market-making exposure, thereby improving capital efficiency. (The Block)
According to an official announcement, Binance Wallet officially launched its new Event Rush feature on May 25, powered by the third-party decentralized protocol 42.space on BNB Chain. This feature enables users to tokenize and trade real-world events—including sports outcomes, cryptocurrency price targets, and news events. Users can purchase event tokens—representing specific event outcomes—using USDT on the BSC chain. They may choose to sell these tokens for profit at any time before the event concludes, or hold them until settlement to receive a share of the entire prize pool proportional to their holdings; upside potential is uncapped. Token prices are dynamically determined by a bonding curve mechanism based on trading demand: the earlier users enter, the larger their share allocation.
Curve Finance has announced it will conduct database upgrade maintenance at 9:00 AM Central European Summer Time (CEST) on May 25. The official estimate suggests the maintenance will take approximately 20 minutes to 1 hour. During the maintenance period, the Curve front-end interface will be temporarily inaccessible, but the underlying smart contracts will continue to operate normally, and the core functions of the protocol will not be affected.
Frax Finance announced on X platform that DeFi project Tangent will open pre-deposits in one week, with frxUSD serving as one of the default stablecoins, alongside USDC to support the protocol's initial liquidity deployment.Frax stated that Tangent will be built on the frxUSD PegKeeper pool on Curve Finance, further enhancing frxUSD's application scenarios and capital depth within the on-chain liquidity system as a core DeFi stablecoin.
Odaily News: sato has released a new mechanism documentation, providing further explanations on the operational logic of the Curve. The documentation reveals that sato's Bonding Curve is not a completely symmetrical exchange system; users employ different pricing logics for minting and burning, with the burn price being structurally lower than the mint price due to correction factors.According to the documentation, the sato team defines the Curve as an "issuance system + final repurchase pool," rather than a fully redeemable backstop mechanism. The Curve is primarily responsible for issuing tokens in the early stages. Once external market liquidity matures, it transforms into a "buyer of last resort," providing on-chain repurchase functionality when secondary market liquidity is insufficient.Earlier, some community developers pointed out that there is a state mismatch between ethCum and totalMintedFair within the sato Hook. This mismatch causes users to "buy at a higher Curve price and sell at a lower Curve price," where some ETH remains in the Hook reserve but cannot be fully redeemed through the selling path.
