Project Overview
Hedera is designed for fast, fair, and secure applications to take advantage of the efficiency of Hashgraph on a decentralized, public network that can be trusted. By limiting the number of nodes involved in key functions such as timestamping and transaction ordering, Hedera Hashgraph is able to quickly achieve finality, reducing the possibility that changes to the state of transactions might be made later.
Six Blockchain Organizations Jointly Send Letter to US SEC Requesting Clear Definition of Digital Commodities
Odaily reports: Six blockchain organizations—Stellar Development Foundation, Hedera, Aptos Labs, Ava Labs, Cardano Foundation, and Chainlink Labs—have jointly submitted a comment letter to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), requesting that the definition of "Digital Commodity" and its non-security status be explicitly clarified in the main text of the proposed "Regulation Crypto Assets."It is understood that the SEC's regulatory interpretation released in March 2026 has established the classification of digital commodities, but the relevant definition currently appears only in the preamble of the proposed rules and has not yet been incorporated into the binding rule text. The organizations believe that formally codifying it into the rules would help reduce regulatory uncertainty and provide a more stable legal framework for public chain developers and ecosystem participants.
Kalshi applies to launch perpetual futures for 12 tokens including Ethereum, XRP, Solana, and Dogecoin

Therefore, this batch of products submitted by Kalshi has not yet been approved.

Loss of approximately $9 million: Hedera ecosystem lending protocol Bonzo Finance suffers oracle attack
Bonzo Finance, a lending protocol based on Hedera, suffered an oracle attack, resulting in a loss of approximately $9 million. The attacker exploited collateral whose SAUCE token price had been artificially inflated to borrow assets far exceeding their actual value from the protocol. According to a preliminary incident report released by Bonzo Finance, the attacker deposited only 250 SAUCE tokens, then submitted a single price update that artificially inflated the token's price by approximately 12 orders of magnitude. Subsequently, the address borrowed 6.63 million USDC and 34.5 million wrapped HBAR from the lending pool.This attack was not due to a vulnerability in Bonzo Finance's smart contracts or the underlying Hedera network itself, but rather stemmed from a flaw in the on-chain oracle verifier of the oracle service provider Supra. It erroneously accepted a SAUCE price data point where the signature had been zeroed out. Supra has since confirmed the issue and completed a fix.
