Odaily News: The cross-chain bridge connecting XRP Ledger and Coreum was attacked on August 9. The attacker exploited a validation logic vulnerability to steal approximately 199,900 XRP, reducing the bridge's asset balance from roughly 200,400 XRP to 493.5 XRP. The attack did not involve private key leaks and did not target the XRP Ledger protocol itself. The attacker forged deposit operations, causing the bridge system to recognize them as legitimate deposits and triggering the bridge wallet on the other end to send real XRP. On-chain data shows that the attacker completed the fund transfer through 94 multi-signature authorization transactions within 97 minutes. These transactions required signatures from 17 of the 28 relay node keys, allowing the attacker to bypass the bridge's validation mechanism. As of August 11, the Coreum cross-chain bridge remains suspended, and the Coreum Development Foundation has not yet released an official incident report. The XRP mainnet and user private keys remain unaffected and secure.

The minority fork supporting BIP-110 stalled after mining blocks 961,632 and 961,633. As of Monday, the main chain has advanced to block 961,725, with the minority fork lagging by over 200 blocks. Notably, Ocean Pool has enabled BIP-110 support signaling for miners by default since July, while the DATUM protocol allows individual miners to autonomously decide block content, enabling Simple Mining to make the opposite choice.
Odaily News: After forking at block height 961632, the BIP-110 minority chain has only mined two blocks, 961632 and 961633, and has since stalled due to inheriting Bitcoin's difficulty of approximately 127.48 trillion while receiving extremely low SHA-256d hash power. Pre-fork miner support was approximately 0% to 2.6%. BIP-110 supporters are discussing replacing the proof-of-work algorithm to break free from reliance on Bitcoin miners and SHA-256d hash power. Luke Dashjr has proposed selecting the final algorithm from a shortlist of candidates through a deterministic random process, with options under discussion including RandomX, KT256, BLAKE3, Scrypt, as well as CPU and GPU mining. No PoW changes have been enabled or approved yet, no algorithm has been selected or activation height announced, and Bitcoin Knots has not committed to adjusting the PoW. Relevant experimental code has been ported to the recent Bitcoin Knots codebase, but the BIP-110 minority chain has still not resumed block production.
Odaily News: The BIP-110-supporting Bitcoin minority fork chain split at block height 961,632, and stalled after mining only 2 blocks in approximately 8 hours. It is now over 80 blocks behind the Bitcoin mainnet. The fork chain inherited Bitcoin's current difficulty, but only approximately 2.53% of recent blocks signaled support for BIP-110, far below the 55% activation threshold required to avoid a fork. Bitcoin only adjusts difficulty every 2,016 blocks, and based on current hash rate, it is estimated that this chain would need approximately 350 days to complete its next adjustment. BIP-110 proposes to temporarily prohibit the inscription of non-financial data such as images and text in Bitcoin transactions. Michael Saylor stated that approximately 99.85% of Bitcoin's hash power remains on the mainnet; since both chains accept identical transactions, transactions on the minority chain could potentially be replayed onto the Bitcoin mainnet.
Odaily News: The Bitcoin network has experienced a fork due to the BIP-110 proposal. Nodes supporting the proposal rejected blocks at height 961,632 that did not contain a signal of support. As of now, the Bitcoin main chain has advanced to block 961,651, while the BIP-110 fork chain has only reached block 961,633, trailing the main chain by 18 blocks.BIP-110 is a one-year rule adjustment aimed at limiting non-financial data writes in Bitcoin transactions, including uses such as Ordinals inscriptions. The proposal requires that within a roughly two-week period of 2,016 blocks, at least 1,109 blocks (55%) signal support to activate, but the previous period only saw support from 51 blocks, accounting for 2.53%.Currently, the BIP-110 chain still needs more miner support to continue advancing. According to the rules, the chain must reach block 963,648 to lock in the rules, and will begin formally enforcing the restrictions at block 965,664, lasting approximately one year. (The Block)
Odaily News – Robinhood Chain has surpassed $800 million in total value locked and processed over 200 million transactions within a little over a month since its launch. Johann Kerbrat, head of crypto at financial services firm Robinhood, stated that the team chose an Ethereum Layer 2 network to leverage existing security and decentralization capabilities while focusing resources on product development. Robinhood Chain is part of Robinhood's push to bring brokerage services on-chain, allowing users to trade approximately 200 tokenized stocks, buy and sell real-world assets, lend and borrow stablecoins, and trade perpetual contracts on the network. Kerbrat noted that developer activity is also a key metric for assessing network adoption. Kerbrat said Robinhood Chain caters to financial products such as tokenized stocks and derivatives, while also supporting Meme coins to meet user demand and provide liquidity. Robinhood aims to attract users who have never used cryptocurrency before, rather than competing with other blockchains for existing users.

Odaily News - Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) announced that it has submitted a policy statement regarding the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Agricultural Advisory Committee meeting, supporting U.S. users' participation in the on-chain derivatives market and calling on regulators to adopt a gradual path to promote the development of innovative products such as Perpetual Futures.HPC stated that the U.S. derivatives market originated in agriculture. In the 19th century, grain exchanges in the U.S. Midwest used futures contracts to help farmers and traders discover prices and manage future delivery risks. Since 1922, the U.S. futures market had been regulated under the Department of Agriculture for a long period, until Congress established the CFTC in 1974, placing oversight of the agency under the jurisdiction of the Senate and House Agriculture Committees. Modern derivatives regulation should still revolve around the actual users of the market. Agricultural producers and processors have always been important constituents served by the CFTC, and market participants' needs for product choice, risk management tools, and market innovation should also serve as important references for the evolution of regulatory policy.HPC noted that perpetual futures are now becoming an important innovative derivative in the digital asset era. The committee's discussions on product choice, risk management gaps, and market modernization are highly relevant to current regulatory efforts to explore a regulatory framework for on-chain derivatives. In the submitted statement, HPC put forward three key points:1. Market choice is crucial for risk management. Users in agricultural and other derivatives markets need more tool options. Past experience with restricting innovative products suggests that closing off market choices without adequate evaluation can impose costs.2. A phased approach by the CFTC to regulating perpetual futures is a reasonable direction. HPC stated that the development of new derivatives should be driven by end-user demand rather than relying solely on regulatory presuppositions.3. Public blockchains can enhance the efficiency of financial infrastructure. HPC believes that blockchain technology can modernize clearing and settlement systems, improve collateral liquidity, while continuing to comply with the Commodity Exchange Act's requirements regarding market integrity and risk protection.

: World Chain will launch full block access lists on mainnet on August 17, enabling the feature via a runtime flag without requiring a coordinated network-wide hard fork. The network stated that it will become the first production L2 network to stream EIP-7928 access list data within every flashblock. The feature transmits access list data every 200 milliseconds, allowing validators to verify transactions in parallel during block construction. World Chain stated that the upgrade aims to achieve throughput of up to 1 gigagas per second without raising validator hardware requirements. EIP-7928 is an Ethereum improvement proposal that introduces block-level access lists, used to record accounts and storage slots touched during block execution. World Chain's internal testing shows that validation latency remains stable when throughput rises to 1 gigagas per second on standard cloud infrastructure.

According to monitoring by blockchain security company SlowMist (@SlowMist_Team), its threat intelligence system MistEye detected a large-scale npm supply chain attack targeting the Keyv/Cacheable ecosystem. The attackers published over 2,000 malicious package versions in total, involving core components such as [email protected]. As a widely used key-value storage abstraction library, Keyv supports multiple backends including Redis, SQLite, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB, with weekly downloads reaching approximately 127 million, posing significant downstream supply chain exposure risks. This attack method is highly similar to the previous Shai-Hulud npm worm activity, characterized by high automation and scale. Potential risks include credential theft, environment variable leakage, CI/CD key leakage, remote payload delivery, and lateral penetration. SlowMist recommends security teams immediately investigate and remove affected package versions, upgrade to verified secure versions, review dependency lock files and build logs, monitor suspicious outbound connections, rotate exposed credentials, and rebuild relevant environments from trusted sources if intrusion is suspected.
