Odaily, on-chain security firm Specter has released preliminary findings on the BONK DAO governance attack. After tracing on-chain fund flows, significant suspicions have emerged: the Realms founder, an address associated with Crypto Notte, shows signs of capital flow interaction with the suspected attacker's wallet.According to the review, the attacker published a malicious governance proposal on June 30. The proposal required 1% of the total BONK circulating supply in voting power to pass. Between July 4 and 5, the attacker acquired sufficient voting weight by purchasing tokens through exchanges and borrowing from Marginfi, totaling approximately $4 million, thereby pushing forward and executing the governance attack.
Decentralized stablecoin USDD announced on July 6 that TRON DeFi Summer has officially begun and that its summer coin-earning plan launched jointly with Binance Wallet and JustLend DAO is also live.

The stolen BONK subsequently began flowing to exchanges, putting downward pressure on the BONK price. Data from The Block shows that the BONK price has dropped over 9%.South Korean exchange Upbit subsequently issued a notice stating that it has temporarily suspended BONK deposits and withdrawals to address the incident and mitigate potential risks.

ENS community member AvsA has proposed a draft suggesting that the approximately 5 million ENS tokens held by the DAO be allocated to various governance stakeholders through a multi-delegation contract. This aims to alleviate the current issue of voting power being highly concentrated in the hands of a few representatives. The proposal plans to withdraw tokens from the DAO treasury and select candidates from stakeholders such as users, integrators, developers, traditional domain name service providers, and the governance community based on preset criteria, delegating approximately 1 million ENS equally to each group. Delegates will only receive voting rights and will not have the authority to dispose of the tokens. If they fail to participate in voting for six consecutive months, their delegated tokens will be reclaimed and redistributed.
Odaily, Web3 security firm CertiK has released the "Hack3D: First Half of 2026 Report." The report shows that the Web3 ecosystem experienced 344 security incidents in the first half of 2026, with cumulative losses of approximately $1.32 billion. Although this figure represents a 46.8% decrease compared to the same period last year, excluding the impact of the $1.45 billion security incident involving Bybit, the scale of losses in the first half of this year actually increased by approximately 28% year-on-year, indicating that the overall security environment in the industry has not materially improved.The report points out that wallet theft has become the attack type causing the greatest financial loss, accounting for approximately $450 million in losses in the first half of the year. Meanwhile, although the number of phishing attacks fell by more than 50% year-on-year, the loss amount only decreased by approximately 10.8%, reflecting that attackers are shifting towards high-net-worth individuals and institutional targets, carrying out more targeted high-value attacks.Furthermore, code vulnerabilities remain the most frequent type of attack, with 204 related incidents. CertiK believes that attackers are increasingly targeting long-running legacy smart contracts that lack re-audits. The report also shows that mega-attacks continue to dominate industry losses, with the Kelp DAO and Drift Protocol incidents alone causing approximately $577 million in losses, accounting for 44% of the total losses in the first half of the year. Looking at the number of incidents, the impact of single attacks, and the changing attack patterns, the Web3 industry is facing more complex and continuously escalating security challenges.

According to The Defiant, ENS DAO is facing a serious governance crisis. ENS co-founder Nick Johnson holds approximately 3.26 million ENS tokens, accounting for nearly 50% of all currently delegated voting power. On June 30, he voted against the on-chain binding vote for the Security Council renewal, causing the proposal to fail with 82% opposing votes; the Security Council authorization will expire on July 24. Previously, Johnson also self-delegated a significant amount of voting power to support a proposal to transfer the DAO operating wallet, ENS token holdings, and the endowment managed by Karpatkey to the ENS Foundation's five-member board, triggering strong community skepticism regarding "governance capture." Rotki founder Lefteris Karapetsas stated plainly "DAO is dead," while Security Council member Brantly Millegan characterized the proposal as "fiscal capture by ENS Labs." In response, "The DAO" original code author Christoph Jentzsch publicly proposed directly dissolving ENS DAO, suggesting destroying the ENSv2 universal router key and distributing remaining funds to formally transform the protocol into public infrastructure. Currently, Security Council on-chain voting will close on July 5, ENS Labs COO Katherine
: Lorenzo Valente, ARK Invest's Director of Digital Asset Research, has questioned the stablecoin consortium project OpenUSD, expressing high skepticism about whether such consortium-style stablecoin initiatives can achieve scale. He believes that similar alliances have emerged multiple times before, including Diem and Global Dollar, but ultimately failed to form dominant network effects. Currently, the stablecoin market remains dominated by Tether and Circle, whose core advantages lie in strong network effects and instant liquidity. OpenUSD, however, may face a "cold start" problem, as its joint governance structure will severely slow down decision-making efficiency, making it prone to coordination failures under decentralized governance—resembling the governance dilemmas of DAO experiments: high collaboration costs, slow execution, and difficulty deploying capital efficiently.Furthermore, OpenUSD's economic model appears unsustainable for long-term operations. If it relies on a low-fee split mechanism, it will be unable to cover the costs of infrastructure, incentives, and market expansion.Lorenzo Valente concluded that OpenUSD resembles more of a "collection of letters of intent" than a unified product system with strong execution capabilities. He argued that in the long run, the more likely winners are single operators capable of rapid iteration and independent decision-making, rather than joint governance structures requiring multi-party consensus.
Odaily Planet Daily: The recent voting results of ENS DAO, centered around the governance of the Ethereum Name Service, have sparked controversy within the community. Community members pointed out that in the latest on-chain vote, ENS founder Nick Johnson cast approximately 3.26 million votes against the executive proposal to renew the Security Council for two years. This proposal had previously passed a Snapshot community vote, but the on-chain executive proposal failed to gain support. As the controversy escalated, some community members expressed concerns about the level of decentralization in the ENS DAO governance mechanism. However, others believe the incident reflects more of an issue with the distribution structure of governance tokens rather than a failure of the protocol itself.
