SPCX Pre-Market Contract Prices to Shrink by 10%, TradeXYZ Announces No Adjustments
on-chain analyst Ai Yi posted on platform X, stating that SPCX is about to launch, and the total share capital of SpaceX has been adjusted to 13.08 billion shares, an increase of 10%. Under the same total valuation, the pre-market contract prices will shrink by 10%, affecting platforms that have previously listed this asset and their users. Exchanges such as Binance have followed up with a rebase, and the perpetual DEX Aster has also chosen to proactively adjust to prevent user losses. TradeXYZ has announced that it will not make any adjustments, adhering to its stance as a "price-based perpetual contract," leading to long positions suffering losses. It stated that stock splits are not uncommon in US stocks, where large-cap tech stocks undergo forward stock splits due to excessively high single-share values to facilitate trading. The TradeXYZ team indicated that a solution will be provided.

Consensus Miami: Institutional Investors Remain Cautious Toward Perpetual DEXs; Security Risks and KYC Compliance Are Core Barriers
According to CoinDesk, at the “Perp DEX Explosion: Bullish Volumes and Bear Market Resilience” panel at Consensus Miami, several industry insiders stated that institutional investors are still largely avoiding decentralized exchanges offering perpetual futures (Perp DEXs). Veteran trader Wizard of SoHo pointed out that Drift’s recent multi-million-dollar hack highlights security vulnerabilities in the DeFi ecosystem, making secure onboarding of institutional capital a core competitive focus for major Perp DEXs. Anderson of Canary Labs expressed concern about DeFi’s current security posture, noting that large institutions face significantly greater challenges adopting decentralized exchanges compared to centralized platforms. Additionally, the structural tension between DeFi’s permissionless, open design and institutions’ stringent KYC compliance requirements is seen as a key barrier to scaling adoption. Michaël van de Poppe, founder of MN Fund, shared his views on AI-powered trading tools, stating that AI agents represent an evolutionary extension of algorithmic trading—and that trading will increasingly become fully automated.
Aurise Foundation Launches XAUE, Offering Yield-Bearing Treasury Functionality for Tether Gold
Odaily News Aurise Foundation announced the launch of the yield-bearing gold token XAUE on Ethereum, designed to serve as a yield-bearing treasury for Tether Gold (XAU₮). XAUE targets compliant institutional participants, introducing crypto-native yield to traditional non-yielding gold through quantitative strategies and institutional lending, transforming it into a programmable and capital-efficient on-chain asset.Current ecosystem partners Aurelion and Antalpha have jointly contributed 16,052 XAU₮ (approximately $76 million) to XAUE. The protocol employs an exchange rate growth model, where the gold value pegged to each XAUE increases as yields accumulate, and it will integrate with more decentralized finance protocols such as DEXs in the future.

ZachXBT: Humanity Theft Incident May Have Been Staged; Private Key Leak Claim Is Just an Excuse for the Project Team to Evade Responsibility
Odaily reports: In response to the "Humanity theft incident," on-chain detective ZachXBT has released a new post stating that this "incident" was very likely a staged event. He fundamentally does not believe the team's corresponding explanation, which he sees as nothing more than an excuse fabricated by those with ill intentions to escape blame.According to earlier news, ZachXBT stated that it has not been confirmed whether the Humanity theft was a security attack or a malicious sell-off by the project team. The sell-off of the H token originated from a DEX rather than a CEX.
ZachXBT: Humanity Breach Not Yet Confirmed as Security Attack or Project Team Malicious Dump; H Token Sell-Off Came from DEX Rather Than CEX
in response to the "Humanity hack of over $31 million," on-chain detective ZachXBT stated, "It is uncertain whether this was a hacker's theft or a malicious act by the project team. Looking at the chart, given the concentration of supply, the H team was likely working with an active market maker. However, all H tokens were dumped on a decentralized exchange (on-chain), not on a centralized exchange."

StablR stablecoin depegs after attack, attacker nets approximately $2.8 million
stablecoin issuer StablR suffered a sustained attack, causing its euro stablecoin EURR and dollar stablecoin USDR to depeg.Blockchain security firm Blockaid stated that the attacker allegedly gained control by obtaining the private key of one of the owners of the minting multi-signature account. Exploiting the 1/3 signature threshold mechanism, the attacker replaced other administrators and minted an additional 8.35 million USDR and 4.5 million EURR.Subsequently, the attacker swapped tokens worth approximately $10.4 million for about 1,115 ETH on a DEX, yielding an actual profit of around $2.8 million. Following the incident, EURR fell to around $0.88, while USDR dropped to approximately $0.7.Blockaid noted that the incident was not caused by a smart contract vulnerability but rather by a failure in key management and governance mechanisms.

Litecoin Discloses Zero-Day Vulnerability Leading to DoS Attack and Abnormal MWEB Transactions, Fixed After Block Reorganization
Litecoin disclosed on X platform that a recent zero-day vulnerability once led to a DoS attack, affecting the operation of major mining pools. Mining nodes that were not updated in time allowed an invalid MWEB (MimbleWimble Extension Block) transaction to be executed, enabling the relevant tokens to be withdrawn to a third-party DEX. The Litecoin network rolled back these invalid transactions through a 13-block reorganization (reorg), confirming they would not be included in the main chain. All valid transactions during this period were unaffected. The vulnerability has now been completely fixed, and the network has resumed normal operation.
