A $20 billion hit from the KelpDAO exploit highlights systemic risks, while flat ETH-denominated growth and a shift to stablecoins point to ongoing fragility in DeFi
The KelpDAO exploit, which the bank said erased about $20 billion in TVL within days, exposed structural risks.
An attacker breached a cross-chain bridge, minted $292 million in unbacked rsETH and used it as collateral to drain lending protocols, leaving roughly $200 million in bad debt. Contagion spread beyond directly affected platforms, underscoring how DeFi’s interconnectedness can amplify shocks.
Much as traditional investors shift towards cash in uncertain times, crypto participants have responded to recent exploits by seeking refuge in stablecoins," wrote analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou in the Wednesday report.
Hacks and exploits remain a central risk for crypto because they directly undermine trust in systems that rely on code rather than intermediaries. Smart contract bugs, phishing and cross-chain bridge flaws can expose large pools of locked assets, with attackers often needing to exploit just a single weak point to trigger outsized losses.
These vulnerabilities are amplified by the complexity and interconnectedness of blockchain infrastructure. Cross-chain bridges, for example, expand functionality but also increase the attack surface, and have been responsible for billions of dollars in losses because they rely on complicated designs, shared infrastructure and sometimes weak validation mechanisms.
Beyond the immediate financial damage, repeated exploits erode confidence across the ecosystem. Each major hack can drive users and institutions away, prompt stricter regulation and slow adoption, making security a foundational constraint on crypto’s growth.
The bank's analysts noted hack losses this year are tracking 2025 levels, with infrastructure and bridge exploits still the primary vulnerability despite gains in smart contract auditing.
Growth also remains muted. While TVL has partially recovered in dollar terms, it is largely unchanged in terms of ether (ETH), suggesting limited organic expansion and raising questions about DeFi’s ability to scale for institutional use, the report said.
In periods of stress, investors continue to rotate into stablecoins. Following the exploit, capital flowed from DeFi lending into Tether’s USDT, which benefits from deeper liquidity and faster off-ramps, reinforcing its role as a preferred flight-to-safety asset, the report said.

Alameda unstakes $16 million worth of Solana's SOL token, according to Arkham.
The latest move follows a familiar pattern: unstake coins and route them to addresses used to reimburse creditors. About a month ago, Alameda did the same, directing funds to the same distribution address. That prior move ultimately raised expectations that the funds were part of an ongoing creditor repayment process tied to the firm’s restructuring.
While there has been no formal confirmation that this specific tranche will be distributed imminently, the repetition of the pattern suggests continuity in the process rather than an isolated movement.
SOL, the native token of programmable blockchain Solana, has a market capitalization of $47.26 billion, which makes it the seventh-largest digital asset in the world. As of writing, SOL traded near $82, largely unchanged on a 24-hour basis, but down significantly from its all-time high of $293 hit in January last year.
Alameda, founded by Sam Bankman-Fried in 2017, began as a quantitative trading shop focused on arbitrage opportunities in digital assets, exploiting price differences across exchanges and markets.
At its peak, Alameda was a major liquidity provider across crypto markets and was deeply embedded in the ecosystem, trading billions in volume and operating across spot, derivatives, and structured products.
Alameda still holds about 3.5 million SOL worth $294.10 million, per Arkham.

The boss of a global haulage firm has said the two-year lane closures on part of one of the south coast's busiest roads has cost the firm £2.4m.
National Highways' work to resurface the M27 between junction five at Eastleigh and junction seven at Hedge End first began in 2024. It fully reopened from 06:00 BST, although a temporary 50mph limit is expected to be in place until the end of June.
Speaking ahead of its reopening, Bob Terris, from the Southampton-based haulage firm Meachers Global Logistics, said he was "relieved" the "critical" route would be back up and running.
National Highways praised motorists' "patience" and said the works would create "smoother, quieter and safer" journeys.
Terris estimated the disruption had cost the company, which runs 60 lorries in the Southampton area each day, £2.4m.
We know exactly what it costs for the trucks, we know how much time we're losing - it's not rocket science, it's a lot of money," he said.We know exactly what it costs for the trucks, we know how much time we're losing - it's not rocket science, it's a lot of money," he said.
Terris, who began working at Meachers in 1962 and went on to own the company, welcomed the resurfacing project but bemoaned the economic impact.
It's reduced the productivity of the vehicles, so our costs are higher, and our revenues lower because we don't get paid if they're not moving," he explained.
It's not just the trucks, it's the admin, the telecom, the systems and everything [you have to do] to accommodate all this.
It's an absolutely huge thing, but we're only one company, just multiply this across the whole region and see how much it's costing."
Professional magician Darren Snelgar said the traffic caused by the roadworks had been a problem as he has been travelling to gigs
It's been a bit of a nightmare, with the traffic building up every night around about three, half-past three, so it's been a right pain," he said.
The two-year £83m project to upgrade the motorway, which runs between the New Forest and Portsmouth, first began in March 2024.
It came as part of a National Highways scheme to replace routes built using concrete with asphalt to reduce noise and ensure the road lasted longer.
It has also involved work to improve drainage and strengthen the central reservation.
Richard Scrase, programme delivery manager at National Highways, said they were "grateful" for motorists' "continued patience".
These improvements have created a smoother, quieter and safer journey for drivers, while helping the road last for generations to come," he added.

Former Algerian Industry Minister Ali Aoun has been sentenced to five years in prison after being convicted of corruption, local media reported.
Aoun, who was the minister for industry and pharmaceutical production between 2022 and 2024, was jailed on Monday in a high-profile corruption case that saw several senior figures convicted, the Algerian online news site Dzair Tube reported
According to the news site, prosecutors had sought a 12-year sentence for the former minister, and 10 year sentences for several other defendants. Aoun was also ordered by the Economic and Financial Criminal Court in the capital, Algiers, to pay a fine of 1 million Algerian dinar (approximately $7,500
Local media said the case revolved around the irregular sales of ferrous and non-ferrous metal waste in violation of public asset management rules
“The case centred on accusations of corruption, mismanagement and the unlawful awarding of industrial and investment contracts, notably involving the trade in ferrous waste and copper residues,” Dzair Tube reported
The AFP news agency said that several other officials were also convicted, though some were acquitted due to a lack of evidence
Among those convicted was the former minister’s son, Mehdi Aoun, who was handed a six-year prison term as part of the same case, while investors, an official at a state-owned business and a prominent businessman received sentences of between three and 10 years, according to Dzair Tube
The case and the convictions come amid an ongoing anticorruption drive launched by Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, who came to power in 2019 amid widespread pro-democracy protests.
Tebboune’s campaign against corruption has targeted senior officials, including from the era of former President Abdelaziz Bouteflika, AFP reports.

Markets are so tight lately, it’s almost like they’re all standing in a hallway, nobody breathing, just waiting for something—anything—to happen. I can’t shake the feeling that every number, every headline, is loaded. You’ve got those big macro tremors—take the Strait of Hormuz, for example. The news keeps floating by, but, I don’t know, it’s not background noise anymore. If something happens there… well, inflation isn’t just a chart line. Suddenly, everything you buy gets more expensive and nobody acts surprised. Central banks love that, right? They swoop in, start tinkering. It always ricochets all the way back to us.

And then, crypto. Ah, crypto. You’d think by now we’d be used to its fool’s trapeze act, but nope. Just recently, the Kelp DAO exploit—almost $292 million, just gone... Like someone cut a rope holding up a piano and didn’t bother to yell “Look out below!” There’s this domino thing that happens. Aave jumps in, clamps down, trader liquidity evaporates—blink and you’ll miss it—literally billions just vaporizing in moments. I swear, people keep calling this “volatility.” No. That’s a blood vessel bursting.

Here’s what actually eats at me: it’s not the money itself, or well, not just the money. It’s how everything just melts. Poof—trust gone. I mean, these collateral chains get so elaborate you could mistake them for modern art. And just like that, you realize, oh, all this stuff? It’s toothpicks stacked. Looks sturdy until it doesn’t.

I always tell myself, “Hey, this works,”… up until I see it doesn’t (usually while clutching my coffee, staring at price charts, trying to breathe). And it doesn’t go out with a whimper, either. It snaps—like an old guitar string mid-song.

You can feel the tilt already. Borrowing gets pricier, and money—real, hard cash—starts behaving like water seeping through cracks, always finding the quickest escape route. Suddenly, people don’t want to play musical chairs with leverage. Risk? People actually notice it, now, price it like it’s heavy.

And if you close one eye and squint, you see it—that rising pressure. Not just from outside, with oil and headlines and geopolitics, but inside, where the crypto machinery keeps rattling. The seams are starting to show.

You get the urge to relax—tell yourself, “Maybe it’ll settle down.” But honestly? This doesn’t feel like the time for comfort. Not unless your idea of comfort is sleeping on a bed of thumbtacks.Man, I probably spent way too much time glued to those altcoin charts—and honestly, it wasn’t even because they were interesting at first. Far from it. They were just... flat. But for some reason, staring at those patterns, a weird sense of déjà vu crept in. Not the spooky kind, more like “hey, haven’t I seen this movie before?” but with price lines. I usually brush off that kind of gut feeling, chalk it up to seeing what you want to see—you know, classic confirmation bias. But this time was different.

Suddenly, I hit this wall. You know the moment—the relentless downhill slide that just grinds for months, everything bleeding out till the chart basically flatlines. It’s boring. Dull. The kind of market action that nobody tweets about because, well, nothing seems to happen… but weirdly, under the surface, a lot is bubbling.

Reminds me a lot of those early months in 2020. Not the fireworks. The snooze-fest before things took off. I remember sitting there, just as bored, watching tickers like paint dry. But looking back—man, that was when stuff was actually changing.

Take ARB. It’s the messiest example I can think of. I mean, the thing nosedived, lost over 80% of its value—a graveyard for hype and hopium. Most people bailed. Close the chart and don’t look back, right? But then, bizarrely, these tiny quirks started popping up. Suddenly price inches above a moving average, RSI just refusing to make new lows. Tiny things. If you blink, you miss them.

But, here’s the wild part: I keep circling back to this—the real flips, the actual turning points? They rarely show up with a headline. No trumpets, no Reddit threads. It’s just quiet. You squint, scratch your head, and wonder if your eyes are playing tricks.

Look, don’t get me wrong—I’m not jumping up and down here. I’m still skeptical. Way skeptical. It’s easy to spot patterns, connect dots, and suddenly convince yourself you’ve cracked the code. I’ve seen that script. “Oh, look, early signals, new phase…” blah blah blah. Sometimes that’s all it is—a head fake the market cooked up just to humble you. Been there, felt that sting. Plenty of times.

People love to talk about this so-called “base-building” thing. Like it’s a clean process: two to four months, nice horizontal movement, accumulation, then BOOM, breakout. But if you’ve actually lived through it? It’s chaos. Stops and starts, weird shakeouts, prices drifting sideways till even the die-hards tune out, and just when your guard drops—smack—they knock you out of your position.

Bitcoin echoing the same sleepy price action at the same time? Sure, it means something. Maybe. Or maybe it just makes things louder than they really are, because let’s be real—correlation can mess with your head, fool you into seeing connections that aren’t there.

And those “bull case” projections? Up 150%, 300%, even 400%? That stuff always makes me laugh—half nervous, half suspicious. Sure, anything can happen, but those numbers? They’re like catnip for traders. Pull you in before anything’s even confirmed.

So, what’s it all mean? For me, it’s not really bullish, not full-on bearish either. It’s just… early. Way too early. That itchy, in-between stage where you know something’s brewing, but you’re never sure if you’ll nail the timing or whiff completely.

Honestly, that’s the moment decisions get made—or you mess it up and regret it for months. I guess we’ll see.

A woman who was secretly filmed in her own home has said the experience has "taken over her life" and left her feeling unsafe
Lucy Domaille, from Guernsey, has waived her anonymity as the victim of a sexual offence to speak publicly about the impact voyeurism has had on her and her family
I don't sleep," she said. "Every noise, every time the door opens, you just feel like someone is watching you 24/7
It's taken over my life completely. It's consumed my mind."
In October last year, Guernsey Police told Lucy she had been the victim of voyeurism
A man she had known socially for about 25 years had secretly filmed her getting out of the shower at her home, through a gap in her curtains as he crouched outside her window.
For Lucy, the incident has occupied her every waking thought since
She said: "I'm just not the same person. It's soul-destroying, it's torturous
When you go home, that is supposed to be the place that you feel safe, and I've lost that completely," she explained.
It has also stripped her of her safety.
I'm obsessed. I don't sleep... I have lost all of that."
Lucy was walking round a supermarket when her husband called her to tell her two plain clothes officers were at their home and asking to speak to her.
She later learned she had been a victim of Kirk Bishop, whose crimes she had first seen reported in a social media post by Guernsey Police the previous month.
She said the "emotional trauma" of it meant she was "not the same person - I don't think I ever will be".
As a mother of two young children, she said it had also changed the way she interacted with them at home.
She said: "Sometimes a child gets out of a bath and they'll run down the hallway to their bedroom with no clothes on. I don't want that now.
They've taken away my children's innocence. I'm constantly making sure they're covered."
If you are changing a law based on a crime that someone has committed, surely they should be punished in line with that?" she said.
Bishop is due to be sentenced on 15 May.
Lucy concluded: "One of the best things about Guernsey was that you felt safe. I've lost all of that."

South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa has appointed Roelf Meyer, who served in the last government of the apartheid era, as his new ambassador to the US, his office has said.
The country has not had a top envoy in the US since Ebrahim Rasool was expelled last year after he accused President Donald Trump of trying to "project white victimhood as a dog whistle".
This worsened already strained relations between the nations, which took a downward spiral after Trump's return to office last year.
Ramaphosa's spokesperson Vincent Magwenya confirmed Meyer's appointment to the BBC, saying it would be "immediate".
"I can confirm that President Cyril Ramaphosa has appointed Meyer as South Africa's ambassador to the US," he said
Meyer, 78, played a key role as one of the chief mediators, alongside Ramaphosa, during the talks to end the racist system of white-minority rule known as apartheid in South Africa in the 1990s
He was the chief representative of the National Party (NP), which introduced apartheid, while Ramaphosa represented the African National Congress led by Nelson Mandela.
Meyer was constitutional affairs minister in the last NP government and went on to join the government of national unity formed in 1994 when Mandela became president

The team that helps operate the platform, CoW Swap, said that it was working to resolve the issue for the DEX aggregator.
DNS hijacking allows attackers to redirect users from a legitimate domain to a malicious lookalike site, often with the goal of draining crypto wallets or harvesting private data. The attack vector has become a persistent weak point in decentralized finance, where users typically rely on web-based interfaces to access otherwise secure smart contracts.
CoW Swap operates as a decentralized exchange aggregator, sourcing liquidity across venues and using a mechanism known as “Coincidence of Wants” to match trades directly between users or batch them for more efficient execution. Orders are handled by competing “solvers” that optimize trade outcomes, a design intended to reduce slippage and limit exposure to maximal extractable value (MEV).
MEV is a practice on the blockchain where bots reorder transactions to extract profit at users’ expense, making mitigation key to ensuring fair pricing and protecting traders.
The platform is governed by CoW DAO, a decentralized autonomous organization spun out of the Gnosis ecosystem. The project has positioned itself as a user-protective alternative in DeFi trading, emphasizing execution quality and fairer trading outcomes
We are now actively working to resolve the situation. Please continue to refrain from using swap dot cow dot fi until we confirm that it is safe to use,” the team wrote on X.

Islamabad, Pakistan – On April 11, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif shook hands with United States Vice President JD Vance, guiding him to a seat for talks on the sidelines of the highest-level direct negotiations between Washington and Tehran since the 1979 Iranian Revolution.
At almost the same time, Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Defense made a very different announcement.
In a statement carried by the state-owned Saudi Press Agency, Riyadh confirmed the arrival of a Pakistani military force at King Abdulaziz Air Base in the kingdom’s Eastern Province under the Strategic Mutual Defence Agreement (SMDA) signed last year.
The statement said the deployment included fighter and support aircraft from the Pakistan Air Force, aimed at strengthening joint military coordination and raising operational readiness between the two countries.
In the two days that have passed since then, Pakistan’s government has made no official statement about the development. The military’s media wing, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the Ministry of Information, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not respond to requests for comment sent by Al Jazeera
The Saudi announcement immediately underscored Pakistan’s delicate juggling act in the middle of a war that has destabilised the global economy, led to attacks and deaths in multiple countries and has now led to a high-stakes escalation between the US and Iran in the Strait of Hormuz.
On the one hand, Islamabad has been a central mediator between the US and Iran, hosting their teams last Saturday, and driving attempts to get them to continue with talks after the breakdown in their negotiations.
On the other hand, the SMDA represents a commitment from Pakistan to militarily assist a key ally that was repeatedly hit by Iran before the ceasefire – with Tehran offering no guarantees it will not strike Saudi Arabia or other Gulf nations again.
For now, Pakistani officials said, they can manage both roles.
A Pakistani official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Islamabad remains committed to facilitating the process for as many rounds as required, adding that diplomatic contact between all sides continues.
Sharif is expected to travel to Saudi Arabia in the coming days, with visits to other regional countries, including Turkiye, also likely as Islamabad seeks to sustain diplomatic momentum before the ceasefire deadline
But with a US naval blockade of Iranian ports now in effect and the ceasefire Islamabad brokered between Washington and Tehran set to expire on April 22, Pakistan’s balancing act could become more complicated.
A day before the Islamabad talks opened, Saudi Finance Minister Mohammed bin Abdullah Al-Jadaan made a brief visit to Islamabad, calling on PM Sharif at the prime minister’s House. Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar and Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir were also present
According to an official statement, Sharif expressed appreciation for Riyadh’s “longstanding economic and financial support” to Pakistan, which he said had played a vital role in stabilising the country’s economy
The visit underscored the breadth of the Pakistan-Saudi relationship, spanning defence, diplomacy and finance
The SMDA was signed on September 17, 2025, at Al-Yamamah Palace in Riyadh by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Sharif, with Munir also in attendance. It commits both countries to treating any act of aggression against one as an act against
Pakistan’s position on the agreement has remained consistent.
Addressing the Senate on March 3, three days after the war began, Dar said plainly that Pakistan had a defence pact with Saudi Arabia “and the whole world knows about it
He added that he had personally conveyed Pakistan’s obligations under the pact to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, making clear what the agreement entailed.
Sharif similarly pledged that Pakistan would stand by the kingdom and its people
What remains unclear is under what specific conditions either Pakistan or Saudi Arabia are expected to come to the other’s defence. Would one of them need to declare that they are at war with another country? Would either of them need to specifically request the other to join a military intervention? Has Saudi Arabia so far refrained from formally asking Pakistan to come to its defence
Analysts say the steps taken so far by Saudi Arabia and Pakistan to demonstrate that the SMDA is in operation are aimed at sending clear messages to other countries – even as the ambiguity over the specific contents of the deal itself serves as a deterrent. An enemy of Saudi Arabia, for instance, will not know exactly when it will also need to contend with Pakistan’s military
To be clear, Pakistan’s military presence in the Arab world is longstanding. Pakistani pilots flew for Arab air forces during the 1967 Six-Day War, and Pakistani forces have been deployed across the Middle East in various roles since the 1960s
In Saudi Arabia, Pakistan has trained thousands of military personnel since 1967. A formal agreement in 1982 institutionalised the deployment of Pakistani armed forces personnel for training purposes
During the 1970s and 1980s, Pakistani troops were stationed in significant numbers in the kingdom, including to protect oil infrastructure in the Eastern Province, the same region where the current deployment is based
Still, the SMDA is the first pact that formally commits Saudi Arabia and Pakistan to treating an attack on one as an attack on the other
A second call followed on April 13, focusing on regional developments and the outcome of the Islamabad talks.
Analysts say the continued contact suggests both sides have an interest in keeping communication lines open, regardless of military positioning.
Iranian scepticism of Pakistan, if any, can at least be offset by the certainty that Pakistan will prioritise the stability of the region over other interests,” Cheema said.

Analysts expect traders to watch the funding rate, open interest, and trading volume closely in the first 48 hours post-launch.

Introduction
ZCash has been moving up and down sharply over the past few days, and one trader decided to make the most of that volatility. After ZEC tested the $700 midline, the trader entered a massive short position worth $22.3 million. Today, that decision is showing a floating profit of $3.6 million.

This story isn’t just about a big win. It’s a clear example of how momentum, timing, and risk control can come together to create a powerful trade. In this article, I’ll break down what happened, why the trader made this move, and what lessons anyone can learn from it — even if you’re trading with much smaller amounts.

ZCash’s Recent Price Swings

ZCash has been moving like a roller coaster lately. One day it’s rallying toward $700, and the next it’s pulling back sharply. When ZEC hit that $700 level, it acted like a ceiling the price struggled to break through. Think of it like bouncing a ball against a hard wall — the more it hits, the more likely it is to fall back.

This rejection created the perfect setup for traders watching for a reversal.

The $22.3M Short Position

Shorting ZCash at this level wasn’t random. Shorting simply means the trader is betting that the price will drop. If it falls, they profit. If it rises, they risk big losses — especially with such a large position.

Entering a $22.3 million short shows strong conviction and a clear strategy. The trader likely used technical signals, liquidity zones, and strict risk management. When ZEC failed to break above $700, the trader treated it as a sign that buyers were losing steam.

And so far, that decision has paid off with $3.6 million in floating gains.

Why the Trade Worked

Several factors aligned to make this trade successful:

Strong resistance at $700: The price couldn’t break past it, signaling weakness.

Momentum shift: Once the price started pulling back, momentum flipped to the downside.

High volatility: Fast price swings create quick opportunities for short sellers.

Calculated timing: The trader acted after a clear technical rejection, not before.


Momentum in crypto works a lot like gravity — once it shifts in one direction, it often continues until something else stops it.

Lessons for Everyday Traders

Even if you’re not trading millions, there are useful insights here:

Watch key levels like support, resistance, and midlines.

Follow the trend, not emotions or hype.

Practice risk management, no matter how small the trade.

Wait for confirmation instead of guessing tops or bottoms.


Good trading is less about being right and more about reacting to what the market shows you.

This ZCash short position is a great reminder of how strategy and timing can turn a volatile move into a profitable opportunity. The trader didn’t rely on luck. They relied on signals, momentum, and patience — and walked away with millions in unrealized gains.

Anyone in the crypto market can learn from that. You don’t need a huge position to apply the same principles.

If you want more breakdowns like this — clear, simple, and focused on real market behavior — let me know the next topic you’d like to explore.
