US Judge Approves Aave to Proceed with Transfer of $71 Million in ETH Linked to North Korean Hackers
Odaily News: Margaret Garnett, a U.S. District Judge in Manhattan, has approved Aave's asset recovery proposal, allowing the transfer of approximately $71 million in ETH previously frozen on Arbitrum and linked to North Korean-linked attacks, to a wallet controlled by Aave LLC, while preserving the legal claims of terrorism victim plaintiffs over the funds. The ruling also amended the earlier freeze notice against the Arbitrum DAO, permitting the transfer to be executed through an on-chain governance vote and exempting those who propose, vote on, or participate in the transfer from liability under the freeze order. The transfer is still subject to an official vote by Arbitrum's on-chain governance. (CoinDesk)

New York bar spends $5,000 on Kalshi to hedge against Knicks free drink promotion
The Jeffrey, a bar on Manhattan's Upper East Side, launched a promotion during Game 1 of the NBA Finals: if the New York Knicks won, all customer drinks for the night would be free. The bar simultaneously invested $5,000 on the prediction market Kalshi to establish a hedging position, purchasing "Knicks Win" contracts. If the Knicks won, the bar would have to cover customer tabs, but profits from the Kalshi contracts would offset those losses. If the Knicks lost, the bar would not need to comp any drinks and would only lose the hedging cost. Bar owner Andy Freedman stated that this approach allows them to execute bolder marketing campaigns while maintaining risk control.
