Reserve has officially stated that the 3.38 billion RSR tokens involved in the Binance hot wallet hack have been sold by the attacker. The Reserve protocol contracts remain unaffected, and RSR holders need to take no further action. On-chain data indicates that the attacker exchanged the entirety of the RSR for 1,856 ETH via Uniswap V3 between 20:53 and 21:08 EST on October 29, with a total value of approximately $4.1 million.
Odaily Report: According to monitoring by on-chain analyst Yu Jin, whale wenyu8888888 (0x79E...8bcAd) bought UNI and PEPE this morning after the hacker's sell-off triggered a panic-driven market decline. At around 7 AM, the address spent $2.61 million to buy 297.9 billion PEPE and 208,000 UNI. Twenty minutes ago, all of these UNI and PEPE were transferred to Gate, worth $2.88 million. The trade took 5 hours and generated a profit of $270,000.
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.
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."
Odaily reports: According to Lookonchain monitoring, the Binance attacker has completed the sell-off of 7 tokens including UNI, ENA, PEPE, LINK, AAVE, ONDO, and WLD, cumulatively converting to 70,480 ETH, valued at approximately $158.25 million based on current quoted prices. Among them:UNI: sold 7.02 million tokens, worth $39.63 million, at an average price of $5.65;ENA: sold 217.5 million tokens, worth $33.93 million, at an average price of $0.16;PEPE: sold 7.77 trillion tokens, worth $31.66 million, at an average price of $0.0000041;LINK: sold 2.57 million tokens, worth $26.05 million, at an average price of $10.14;AAVE: sold 127,953 tokens, worth $14.27 million, at an average price of $111.55;ONDO: sold 21.85 million tokens, worth $6.62 million, at an average price of $0.30;WLD: sold 17.32 million tokens, worth $6.09 million, at an average price of $0.35.
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.
Odaily report: A wallet suspected to be associated with the Binance hack incident received tens of thousands of ETH through a Uniswap contract and borrowed 19,762 ETH on Aave using approximately $60 million in USDT as collateral. On-chain records do not show any vulnerabilities in Uniswap or Aave.As of 22:07 UTC, the two wallets held approximately 253,000 ETH, worth about $570 million, with no outgoing transfers recorded. Aave has paused the Ethereum mainnet V3 market, and Kamino has also paused borrowing in the SOL/BTC market; Ripple has frozen approximately $200 million in RLUSD, and more than $2 billion in USDT and USDC has been frozen by stablecoin issuers.

According to Decrypt, Binance co-CEO He Yi stated that Ripple has frozen approximately $200 million in RLUSD; suspected hackers are converting freezeable stablecoins into ETH via Uniswap and Aave, while Kamino has suspended SOL/BTC market lending.
According to Lookonchain monitoring, the Binance hacker is currently dumping PEPE, UNI, LINK and other tokens on-chain in exchange for ETH. Lookonchain states that the hacker still holds a large amount of altcoins that may face significant selling pressure, including 217.497 million ENA (worth $39.51 million), 7.579 trillion PEPE (worth $34.41 million), 2.575 million LINK (worth $28.07 million), 128,034 AAVE (worth $15.9 million), 74.56 million ARB (worth $11.54 million), 1.938 million UNI (worth $12.62 million), 21.852 million ONDO (worth $8.52 million), 17.318 million WLD (worth $6.73 million), 714.911 million FUN (worth $6.29 million), 87.853 million ZAMA (worth $6.02 million), 3.602 million ZRO (worth $5.69 million), and 3.382 billion RSR (worth $5.02 million).
According to Whale Alert, within approximately 40 minutes of the suspected Binance hack, around $2.37 billion in USDT and USDC was frozen; addresses tagged as "Binance Hack 2026" additionally transferred out approximately 7.019 million UNI.
According to The Information, citing sources familiar with the matter, OpenAI is in early-stage acquisition talks with New York-based software security firm Trail of Bits, with the deal size currently undisclosed. The move aims to expand OpenAI’s cybersecurity business. Trail of Bits focuses on open-source software vulnerability detection and remediation, and has conducted security audits for crypto projects such as Uniswap, Aave, and Worldcoin. Prior to this, both parties jointly launched the open-source software security initiative “Patch the Planet” in June.
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.
Odaily Report: According to on-chain detective Specter, the attackers behind this campaign provided so-called arbitrage bot tutorials and code through YouTube videos, and guided victims to use a counterfeit Remix development interface to compile and deploy contracts. The attackers registered ENS names containing "Uniswap" to disguise the related addresses as legitimate incoming fund sources from DeFi activity, leading victims to believe that the deployed arbitrage bot was profiting through Uniswap. After victims injected their own assets into the contracts, the funds were transferred away by the attackers. The attackers currently appear to still be active and hold a substantial portion of the stolen funds in two addresses.
Odaily News: On-chain security platform Blockaid has discovered a vulnerability in the Bitcoin bridge of cross-chain protocol Symbiosis. The attacker minted approximately 2^62 syBTC to a newly created externally owned account, with a face value of roughly $46.1 billion calculated at 8 decimal places, and sold approximately 4.39 WBTC on Uniswap V4 on Ethereum, realizing a cash-out of about $336,000.Symbiosis stated that the attack occurred at around 4:28 AM on September 11. The team has paused the BTC route, while other routes remain operational and unaffected. The team has recovered approximately 15 BTC and deposited them into a multisig wallet controlled by the team. They have also offered the attacker a 20% white-hat bounty, with a deadline of September 13.In recent weeks, Liquid Network, Nomic, and Symbiosis have all experienced security incidents involving the inflation of supply through the minting of tokens without real asset backing. As of September 13, Symbiosis has not yet publicly released a BridgeV2 technical post-mortem, the final loss amount, or confirmation of whether the attacker has accepted the bounty.

DeFi infrastructure company Enso disclosed a type of malicious liquidity pool called "toxic pools" in a report on July 16th. These pools manipulate transaction simulations to return false optimal quotes to wallets and DEX aggregators, subsequently altering the logic during actual on-chain execution. Enso stated that the relevant malicious contracts can identify read-only simulation environments and return optimized prices, but when the transaction is broadcast on-chain, it is executed at a worse price or causes the transaction to fail. One manipulated Curve pool processed over 129,000 swaps, resulting in approximately $225,000 in inflated quotes. Additionally, over 37,000 transactions were reverted, consuming nearly $30,000 in gas fees. On Polygon, a malicious Uniswap v4 hook attracted routing systems with fake exchange rates, subsequently triggering a 99.1% transaction failure rate. Enso stated that it has updated its execution protection product, Enso Shield, to detect fake quotes in Ethereum and Polygon environments.
Odaily Odaily News According to Onchain Lens monitoring, on July 6, the Summer.fi attacker wallet (0x7BF...b3bdca) received 6.017 million DAI from the Summer.fi attack incident; subsequently, 1.35 million DAI have been transferred, swapped for ETH via Uniswap, and then sent to Tornado Cash through a second wallet (0x46e...eba7). The original wallet still holds approximately 4.67 million DAI, while the second wallet still holds 50 ETH.
According to Onchain Lens monitoring, the Summer.fi attacker is actively transferring funds. The relevant address is splitting 6.017 million DAI into multiple small transactions and swapping them for ETH via Uniswap.
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. On-chain analyst b-block stated that the associated counterfeit websites are draining funds from multiple wallets; the implicated addresses currently hold a combined total of 146 ETH—worth approximately $306,000 at press time. Security Alliance (SEAL) noted that such fraudulent Google ads are a common source of phishing attacks, with attackers either purchasing ad placements or compromising legitimate advertising accounts to impersonate popular crypto protocols in sponsored search results. SEAL also reported that between March 13 and March 30, these attacks resulted in total losses amounting to $1.27 million.
according to Blockaid monitoring, it detected an ongoing attack targeting the SquidRouter module on the Ethereum and Base chains. Within approximately 2 hours, 86 Gnosis Safe wallets were drained of about $3 million in assets. All stolen tokens were swapped for DAI via a Uniswap V3 pool controlled by the attacker.
According to CoinDesk, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin was sandwiched by the well-known MEV bot jaredfromsubway.eth on April 30 during a small token swap. On-chain data shows that Buterin exchanged 26,544 XDB tokens—valued at approximately $3.86—for 0.00197 ETH (worth about $4.56) in block 24993038. The bot then deployed roughly $1.14 million worth of WETH to manipulate prices across SushiSwap and Uniswap V2 to execute the sandwich attack. After deducting $5.14 in gas fees, the bot incurred an actual loss on this operation.
