News linked to both this project and an event.
Oobit, a mobile wallet supported by Tether, issued a clarification on X, stating that after “on-chain detective” ZachXBT disclosed a vulnerability exploit against two smart contracts (EURR and USDR) of stablecoin issuer StablR—resulting in losses of approximately $13.5 million—the attackers attempted to withdraw the stolen funds via Oobit. However, Oobit’s compliance team identified the anomalous activity and successfully froze EURR funds valued in the six-figure range, while also shutting down the withdrawal channel. No user funds were affected in this incident, and Oobit’s own systems were not compromised. Oobit is currently cooperating with StablR and investigators to advance follow-up actions. Earlier reports indicated that StablR suffered a hack resulting in losses of approximately $2.8 million, causing both EURR and USDR to de-peg.
According to The Block, Oobit—a wallet startup backed by Tether—has launched virtual “Agent Cards,” enterprise expense cards powered by Visa and designed for AI agents. These cards enable AI bots to make online purchases directly using their USDT balances, eliminating the need to convert to fiat currency or obtain manual, per-transaction approval. Each agent card features individual spending limits, category-level expenditure controls, and per-transaction or per-merchant caps. Every transaction automatically generates a human-readable record and supports integration with payment platforms such as Stripe for handling subscription billing and vendor payments.
