Base Launches Azul Mainnet Upgrade, Introducing a Multi-Proof System to Accelerate Decentralization
According to The Block, Base—the Ethereum Layer 2 network operated by Coinbase—has officially activated the Azul upgrade on its mainnet. This marks Base’s first independent network upgrade following its separation from the Optimism Superchain. The Azul upgrade introduces a multi-proof system that combines TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) proofs with zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs, reducing the shortest possible withdrawal finalization time to just one day. Both proof types can independently confirm proposals; in case of conflict, permissionless ZK proofs override TEE proofs—further enhancing the network’s censorship resistance. Additionally, Azul integrates Base into a single execution client, <code>base-reth-node</code>, and introduces a new consensus client, <code>base-consensus</code>, built on OP Kona. Following the upgrade, the number of empty blocks has plummeted from approximately 200 per day to roughly 2 per day, and the network has achieved a sustained peak throughput of 5,000 transactions per second.
Analysis: Crypto Becoming Default Payment Layer for AI Agents, Stablecoin Advantages Highlighted
crypto market maker and investment firm Keyrock has released a new report indicating that as traditional bank card payment systems struggle to meet micro-payment needs, blockchain-based stablecoin payment rails are gradually becoming the default payment layer for AI agents.The report shows that between May 2025 and April 2026, AI agents have completed over 176 million transactions through on-chain infrastructure, settling more than $73 million.The so-called "Agentic Payments" refer to AI software that can autonomously purchase data, computing power, API access, or AI services without requiring human authorization for each individual transaction. For example, an AI trading agent can continuously and automatically buy market data, cloud computing resources, or AI analysis services. Keyrock believes this growth rate may even surpass the early explosive phase of stablecoins.Currently, Coinbase's x402 protocol has emerged as one of the leading crypto-native machine payment solutions, allowing AI agents to directly pay for on-chain data analysis, cloud services, and other resources using USDC, without the need for accounts or subscription systems.Data shows that approximately 76% of AI agent payment amounts fall below the common 30-cent fixed fee threshold of traditional bank cards, with most transactions ranging from just 1 to 10 cents. This makes traditional payment networks unsuitable for machine-to-machine micropayments. In contrast, on chains like Base and Tempo, the settlement cost for stablecoins is "less than one cent."However, regulation may still become a limiting factor for industry growth. The report points out that new regulatory frameworks, including Europe's MiCA, the US's GENIUS Act, and the EU's AI Act, have yet to directly cover critical issues such as autonomous transactions by AI agents, liability attribution, and identity authentication.

Base status update system has been malfunctioning for over 30 hours, causing withdrawal delays
L2BEAT research lead donnoh.eth posted on X, stating that the Base network's state update system has been down for over 30 hours due to a bug related to a recent upgrade. However, since the on-chain withdrawal cycle is set to approximately 7 days, this issue has not been immediately noticeable to users.This malfunction involves an anomaly in the state update layer but did not immediately impact users' withdrawal experience, which is why the problem went largely unnoticed for a period of time. The issue has now sparked discussion within the community, focusing on its impact on on-chain data synchronization and operational monitoring mechanisms.
Base’s withdrawal process delayed due to TEE enclave failure causing status updates to stall for over 30 hours
Base state updates have been interrupted for over 30 hours due to issues related to the Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) enclave. The official team stated that the outage caused the termination of some proposals, and mainnet withdrawals are currently affected. Repair efforts are ongoing.

SlowMist Yu Xian: The Squid security incident did not stem from private key issues but rather from a vulnerability in the Safe Wallet’s “as shown in the figure” module.
Cosine, founder of SlowMist, posted an analysis of the Squid security incident on X. He stated that sampling revealed all affected Safe wallets were single-signature, with different owners—but the issue was not related to private keys. Rather, the vulnerability lay in the module shown in the image (SquidRouterModule) used by these Safe addresses. Attackers could forge messages and easily bypass relevant validations to initiate subsequent swap operations, thereby draining funds from the targeted Safe wallets. Additionally, Cosine disclosed the attacker’s profit accumulation address. Earlier reports indicated that a third-party Gnosis Safe module was exploited on Base and Ethereum, causing approximately $3.2 million in losses. The victims were 86 Gnosis Safe wallets that had added this contract as a trusted Safe Module. The contract is named “SquidRouterModule” on Basescan. Subsequently, Squid clarified that it was not impacted by the Gnosis Safe-related vulnerability incident.
Squid: Security Incident Unrelated to Squid Core Protocol and Contracts; All Squid Users and Integrators Unaffected
Odaily news Squid posted on X platform, stating that this incident is unrelated to the Squid core protocol and contracts. All Squid users and integrators are unaffected and no action is required.Today, a third-party Gnosis Safe module on the Base and Ethereum networks was attacked, resulting in a loss of approximately $3.2 million. The vulnerable contract is verified on Basescan under the name "SquidRouterModule," but this contract was not built, deployed, or operated by Squid. It is a third-party smart wallet product that chose to integrate with Squid and other protocols, and has no connection with Squid.The attack principle is that this third-party module accepts a constant string provided by the caller as a message security proof. This string is publicly visible in the verified contract code. By inputting this string, the attacker could execute arbitrary calldata arrays and freely steal funds. The victim's Safe wallet had added this problematic contract as a trusted Safe Module, allowing the contract to control any tokens within the Safe without requiring a signature. Squid's own router contract (0xce16...D666) has a different architecture and was unaffected. Squid users' funds, authorizations, and integrations are completely safe.Early public reports may have mentioned "SquidRouter" due to the contract verification name on Basescan. The accurate description should be: a third-party SquidRouterModule was attacked, not Squid's Router contract. This contract shares the name with Squid, but it is not Squid's code. Squid is continuously monitoring the situation and will provide updates if there are any significant changes.
SquidRouterModule Attacked, 86 Gnosis Safe Wallets Drained of Approximately $3 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.
