Grayscale Announces Crypto Asset Yield Rankings: HYPE Holders Lead in Yield, CAKE Ranks Highest in Adjusted Earnings Yield
According to BeInCrypto, Grayscale released a crypto asset valuation ranking evaluated based on two metrics: "Token Holder Yield" and "Adjusted Earnings Yield". HYPE topped holder yields at 8.0%, with Lighter (LIT) following closely at 7.9%, and PancakeSwap (CAKE) ranking third at 2.6%, followed sequentially by AERO, UNI, RAY, PENDLE, AAVE, JUP, and CRV. In terms of adjusted earnings yield, CAKE led at 14.4%, with LIT at 14.1% and HYPE at 9.8%, followed sequentially by RAY, AAVE, JUP, SKY, UNI, AERO, and PENDLE. The report showed that five assets on the list had negative holder yields, including AAVE, JUP, and CRV, with CRV at -5.5% and JUP at -2.6%. Grayscale calculates holder yield as staking rewards plus buybacks minus new token issuance, so holders face dilution when new issuance exceeds total yields. While JUP's adjusted earnings yield stands at 3.5%, its holder yield remains negative.

Since Uniswap launched its fee switch, its market share has increased by nearly 10%
DeFi analyst Jordi in Cryptoland posted on X stating that historical data shows Uniswap's activation of the Fee Switch did not weaken its competitiveness—its market share not only held steady but even increased. Before the fee switch was turned on, Uniswap accounted for 21% of total DEX trading volume; immediately after the switch was flipped, its share remained essentially flat; now, with the onboarding of the Robinhood channel, its share has risen to 31%.Today, Uniswap's value capture capability is also stronger. Protocol monthly revenue started from zero and has now stabilized at around $7.2 million. Compared to its multi-billion-dollar valuation, this figure is not particularly impressive (the P/E ratio remains above 40x), but with market share increasing by 10 percentage points while monthly revenue jumped from zero to $7.2 million, this is absolutely a massive milestone.

Standard Chartered: Uniswap Token UNI Could Rise to $100 by 2030
Standard Chartered Bank has initiated coverage on the decentralized exchange protocol Uniswap, predicting its UNI token could rise from its current price of approximately $2.70 to $100 by the end of 2030, representing a gain of nearly 40 times.Geoffrey Kendrick, Global Head of Digital Assets Research at Standard Chartered, stated that the next wave of wealth creation opportunities in the digital asset space may come from DeFi protocols. The core logic is that the scale of tokenized assets entering DeFi will grow significantly, thereby enhancing the trading asset base and fee potential for protocols like Uniswap.Standard Chartered estimates that tokenized assets on-chain will grow from approximately $340 billion today to $4 trillion by the end of 2028. Of this, the proportion flowing into DeFi is expected to rise from roughly 3.5% currently to 30% by the end of 2030. Combined with the growth of crypto-native assets, the total value locked in DeFi could reach approximately $2.7 trillion, an increase of about 37 times compared to today.Kendrick believes that if Uniswap can successfully commercialize and establish sufficient partnerships with traditional financial institutions, its valuation multiple relative to trading fees could improve, narrowing the gap with centralized exchanges like Coinbase.Standard Chartered's projected price path for UNI is: $6.50 by the end of 2026, $20 by the end of 2027, $40 by the end of 2028, $65 by the end of 2029, and $100 by the end of 2030. The bank also expects UNI to potentially outperform ETH and BTC during this period.

Odaily reports: An announcement updated by OKXICE on October 28 shows that Walmart, Eli Lilly, Cigna, Carnival Corporation, and Arcos Dorados oppose its stock tokenization plan. With the addition of five companies, 38 of the 63 target companies have now formally objected, accounting for about 60%; the combined market capitalization of these companies exceeds $19.4 billion.OKXICE is a joint venture established by crypto exchange OKX and Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), planning to allow eligible investors to trade blockchain-mapped tokens of U.S. stocks around the clock using stablecoins. The tokens will be backed by real shares held by a registered broker-dealer, and trading is intended to be conducted through permissioned Uniswap v4 liquidity pools on the OKX X Layer network.The temporary regulatory exemption established by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in September allows eligible platforms to conduct tokenized stock trading without complying with some traditional exchange requirements, and allows listed companies to object to third-party tokenization of their shares. The announcement listed the companies that raised objections but did not explain their specific reasons. (Bitcoin.com News)
The number of companies opposing trading on the OKX and ICE tokenized stock platform has risen to 22
a notice updated by OKXICE TSV on October 23 listed 6 newly objecting companies, including Wells Fargo, Cisco Systems, Marvell Technology, Arm Holdings, Moderna, and Intuit. The total number of companies that have raised objections has increased to 22, up from 16 on October 19 and 9 on October 15. The notice did not state the reasons why the companies objected, nor did it explain the impact of the objections on whether the stocks can be traded on the platform.OKXICE TSV is a joint venture owned 50-50 by Intercontinental Exchange and OKX's U.S. holding company, and plans to allow approved users to trade tokenized U.S. stocks around the clock. Trading will be conducted through Uniswap v4 liquidity pools on OKX's XLayer blockchain and settled using stablecoins such as USDC.The notice disclosed that the platform suspends trading only when the underlying stocks are halted, has not set up other circuit breaker mechanisms, and has not established policies for handling issues related to blockchain transaction ordering. Smart contracts can be upgraded without prior notice to users, and the contract controlling trading eligibility has only undergone an internal audit. (Decrypt)

ZachXBT Goes Undercover in Lazarus Group-Linked Money Laundering Ring: Invested Nearly $3.5 Million in OTC Trades with Counterparty Using the Alias Jimmy Green
Odaily News: On-chain detective ZachXBT posted on X that he once posed as a client to infiltrate a criminal group suspected of laundering money for the North Korea-backed hacker organization Lazarus Group, and assisted in freezing funds related to the 2025 Bybit attack.ZachXBT stated that after Bybit suffered a $1.5 billion attack in February 2025, he discovered that more than 15 accounts in public Telegram and Discord groups were seeking help processing transactions related to the stolen funds. He subsequently contacted one of the Telegram users using the alias "Jimmy Green" and built trust through multiple transactions. According to his disclosure, on March 6, 2025, he transferred $3.497 million in USDC to an Ethereum address for a USDC-to-TRON-chain USDT exchange transaction with the counterparty. The source of gas funds for that address can be traced back to the Bybit attack funds and was publicly flagged as a Bybit attack blacklisted address.ZachXBT said that in subsequent communications, the counterparty revealed that their team had been involved in processing the stolen Bybit funds and disclosed in advance that the funds would be moved across chains including Solana. By matching transaction timing, amounts, and on-chain data, he identified a wallet cluster involving more than $12 million in Bybit attack funds, with fund paths spanning multiple networks including BTC→ETH→SOL→TRON. Approximately 442,000 USDT was frozen by Tether, and the group also attempted to launder money through Uniswap liquidity pools and low-liquidity tokens. Additionally, the counterparty disclosed having helped other clients process approximately $3 million in fraudulent proceeds, and ZachXBT traced the related funds to wallets associated with the sanctioned Huione Guarantee.ZachXBT revealed that in this investigation, he initially invested $3.497 million and bore a loss risk of approximately 5% per transaction. The intelligence ultimately obtained was provided to relevant investigative agencies and law enforcement authorities at the earliest opportunity. Since 2022, he has assisted in freezing over $75 million in funds related to North Korea-linked incidents.

The trade took 5 hours and generated a profit of $270,000.
Binance hacker has sold altcoins worth approximately $158 million, converting all into 70,480 ETH
Odaily reports: According to on-chain analyst The Data Nerd, the Binance hacker has sold altcoins worth approximately $158.25 million and converted all proceeds into 70,480 ETH.The specific sell-offs include: 7.02 million UNI (approximately $39.63 million), 217.5 million ENA (approximately $33.93 million), 7.77 trillion PEPE (approximately $31.66 million), 2.57 million LINK (approximately $26.05 million), 127,953 AAVE (approximately $14.27 million), 21.85 million ONDO (approximately $6.62 million), and 17.32 million WLD (approximately $6.09 million).Currently, all of the aforementioned altcoins held by the relevant address have been fully liquidated.
EIP-7702 Developer: EIP-7702 Itself Has No Vulnerability, But It Did Help the Hacker in the Binance Incident
Odaily Report: Derek Chiang, founder of ZeroDev and a developer involved with EIP-7702, posted on X stating that first, to be clear — EIP-7702 itself has no vulnerability. If you are using a wallet that supports EIP-7702 (MetaMask, Uniswap, Ambire, etc.), please do not panic.EIP-7702 is an Account Abstraction improvement proposal that allows externally owned accounts (EOAs) to sign a special message called a "7702 authorization," thereby embedding a smart contract into that account. This enables accounts to achieve powerful functionality, such as transaction batching — combining "authorization" and "transfer" into a single transaction, allowing you to complete a swap on Uniswap with just one click.Unfortunately, the same feature also allows hackers to efficiently transfer all your tokens in a single transaction. In the Binance hack incident, the hacker moved ETH, USDT, and 62 other tokens in one transaction, whereas without EIP-7702, they would have needed to send a separate transaction for each token. In this particular incident, many such transactions would have failed anyway, because Binance was still using the compromised wallet for withdrawals at the time, so all transactions sent by the hacker had to compete with legitimate transactions for Nonce (transaction sequence number). Therefore, using EIP-7702 did help the hacker steal funds as quickly and as extensively as possible.However, for the hacker to use EIP-7702, one of the following conditions must have been met: first, they obtained the private key; second, they tricked Binance into signing a 7702 authorization — the latter is highly unlikely, as it is hard to imagine Binance exposing an endpoint used for signing 7702 authorizations (or worse, signing raw messages that could be repackaged by the hacker for 7702 authorization). But until the official postmortem report is released, this possibility cannot be completely ruled out.Derek Chiang added: "As one of the contributors to account abstraction, I feel somewhat responsible for this hack incident, because while giving accounts more powerful functionality, we have indeed also given hackers stronger capabilities."

Analysis: Arbitrage Window Emerges On-Chain During Binance Hack, Single Address Profits Approximately $3.47 Million in Two Hours
Odaily Report: During the Binance attack, an obvious arbitrage opportunity emerged on-chain. According to a community user's review, the attacker, in order to avoid Tether freezing, swapped a large amount of USDT for ETH through DEXs, causing the ETH price on Uniswap to briefly rise to $2,560–$2,750, with some individual trades exceeding $3,000, while Aave's ETH price obtained through the Chainlink oracle remained at $2,250–$2,290. A price gap of 15% to 30% appeared between on-chain and oracle prices, lasting nearly an hour.Arbitrageurs exploited this price gap by depositing USDC/USDT as collateral into Aave, borrowing ETH at the oracle price, then selling it at high prices on DEXs, and buying back ETH to repay the loans once the spread narrowed. According to the user's statistics, within 6 hours after the incident, a total of 61 addresses borrowed ETH on Aave mainnet (excluding the hacker's address). Among them, the most profitable address sold 12,289 ETH at an average price of approximately $2,580, then bought back 12,314 ETH at an average price of approximately $2,297, earning about $3.47 million. The top ten arbitrage addresses collectively profited approximately $6.36 million.The user stated that the arbitrageurs exploited the price disconnection between centralized exchanges and DEXs, and that the Aave contract itself had no vulnerability. As DEX prices fell back and Aave froze the mainnet V3 market, the arbitrage window gradually closed. The above profits are based on transaction-by-transaction on-chain statistics and have not yet deducted Gas fees.

EIP-7702 Developer: EIP-7702 Itself Has No Vulnerability, But It Did Help the Hacker in the Binance Incident
Odaily Report: Derek Chiang, founder of ZeroDev and a developer involved with EIP-7702, posted on X stating that first, to be clear — EIP-7702 itself has no vulnerability. If you are using a wallet that supports EIP-7702 (MetaMask, Uniswap, Ambire, etc.), please do not panic.EIP-7702 is an Account Abstraction improvement proposal that allows externally owned accounts (EOAs) to sign a special message called a "7702 authorization," thereby embedding a smart contract into that account. This enables accounts to achieve powerful functionality, such as transaction batching — combining "authorization" and "transfer" into a single transaction, allowing you to complete a swap on Uniswap with just one click.Unfortunately, the same feature also allows hackers to efficiently transfer all your tokens in a single transaction. In the Binance hack incident, the hacker moved ETH, USDT, and 62 other tokens in one transaction, whereas without EIP-7702, they would have needed to send a separate transaction for each token. In this particular incident, many such transactions would have failed anyway, because Binance was still using the compromised wallet for withdrawals at the time, so all transactions sent by the hacker had to compete with legitimate transactions for Nonce (transaction sequence number). Therefore, using EIP-7702 did help the hacker steal funds as quickly and as extensively as possible.However, for the hacker to use EIP-7702, one of the following conditions must have been met: first, they obtained the private key; second, they tricked Binance into signing a 7702 authorization — the latter is highly unlikely, as it is hard to imagine Binance exposing an endpoint used for signing 7702 authorizations (or worse, signing raw messages that could be repackaged by the hacker for 7702 authorization). But until the official postmortem report is released, this possibility cannot be completely ruled out.Derek Chiang added: "As one of the contributors to account abstraction, I feel somewhat responsible for this hack incident, because while giving accounts more powerful functionality, we have indeed also given hackers stronger capabilities."

Analysis: Arbitrage Window Emerges On-Chain During Binance Hack, Single Address Profits Approximately $3.47 Million in Two Hours
Odaily Report: During the Binance attack, an obvious arbitrage opportunity emerged on-chain. According to a community user's review, the attacker, in order to avoid Tether freezing, swapped a large amount of USDT for ETH through DEXs, causing the ETH price on Uniswap to briefly rise to $2,560–$2,750, with some individual trades exceeding $3,000, while Aave's ETH price obtained through the Chainlink oracle remained at $2,250–$2,290. A price gap of 15% to 30% appeared between on-chain and oracle prices, lasting nearly an hour.Arbitrageurs exploited this price gap by depositing USDC/USDT as collateral into Aave, borrowing ETH at the oracle price, then selling it at high prices on DEXs, and buying back ETH to repay the loans once the spread narrowed. According to the user's statistics, within 6 hours after the incident, a total of 61 addresses borrowed ETH on Aave mainnet (excluding the hacker's address). Among them, the most profitable address sold 12,289 ETH at an average price of approximately $2,580, then bought back 12,314 ETH at an average price of approximately $2,297, earning about $3.47 million. The top ten arbitrage addresses collectively profited approximately $6.36 million.The user stated that the arbitrageurs exploited the price disconnection between centralized exchanges and DEXs, and that the Aave contract itself had no vulnerability. As DEX prices fell back and Aave froze the mainnet V3 market, the arbitrage window gradually closed. The above profits are based on transaction-by-transaction on-chain statistics and have not yet deducted Gas fees.
