that, according to Bubblemaps, the FIFA-related token WCUP, which launched yesterday, surged to a market cap of approximately $50 million. Over 30 new wallets snapped up 95% of its supply immediately at the opening. These wallets were funded by multiple centralized exchanges within the half-hour before the launch, had no prior on-chain history, and subsequently distributed the tokens to over 2,500 new addresses via Uniswap Router.Bubblemaps noted that the project's documentation only vaguely mentions a presale and partner allocations, with no on-chain evidence directly linking to the team. However, this level of concentration, combined with undisclosed paid promotion arrangements with KOLs, poses a significant risk.

Odaily Odaily reports: In response to Bankless founder David Hoffman's liquidation of his ETH holdings, Uniswap founder Hayden Adams posted a reply on platform X, stating that “ETH is Money” is the correct narrative, though perhaps misunderstood by most.Hayden Adams indicated that in the future, all assets will be tokenized, people will hold the assets they value most, and the most decentralized monetary system will manifest as “an infinite number of forms of money competing with each other.”He believes that with a low-cost, high-efficiency, 24/7 asset exchange system in place, a single unit of account is not necessary. At the same time, he stated that Uniswap, built on Ethereum, is “the best decentralized monetary system,” and that it is still in its early stages.Recommended reading: Bankless Co-founder's Confession on Liquidating ETH: Ethereum Did the Right Things, but “ETH is Money” Has No Future.
According to Cointelegraph, phishing ads impersonating the decentralized exchange protocol Uniswap have appeared in Google search results, enabling attackers to steal at least $400,000.

If sold, it would result in a loss of approximately $8.4 million. Combined with the portion already transferred to exchanges two months ago, cumulative losses are estimated to have exceeded $17.12 million.Additionally, the same address has also deposited other altcoins such as UNI and CAKE into exchanges this time. It remains unclear whether the address plans a complete liquidation or is merely switching to a new address.

Lattice, a blockchain gaming infrastructure team, announced it will gradually shut down after five years of operation, with its Redstone network officially ceasing operations on May 15, 2026, at 23:59 UTC. Lattice urges users to withdraw their funds from Redstone as soon as possible—especially assets held in smart contracts such as Uniswap—since, after shutdown, the Layer-1 withdrawal contract will only support withdrawals for externally owned accounts (EOAs); funds held within smart contracts cannot be retrieved via this method. Founded in 2021, Lattice focused on building on-chain autonomous virtual worlds and developed several projects during its tenure, including MUD, Redstone, Quarry, and Dozer. The team stated that the DUST project has migrated to DUST Chain and will continue to be supported by 0xPARC. Meanwhile, MUD, Quarry, and Dozer have all been open-sourced, enabling users to freely migrate and utilize them.
