CEX

CEXs are platforms managed by centralized organizations that facilitate the trading of cryptocurrencies, offering high liquidity and user-friendly fiat on-ramps. Leaders like Binance, OKX, and Coinbase serve as the primary gateways for institutional and retail entry. In 2026, the industry focus is on Proof of Reserves (PoR), enhanced regulatory compliance, and hybrid models that offer self-custody options.

Solana Wallet Hack Exposes $3M Loss Through Phishing Attack

Solana Wallet Hack Exposes $3M Loss Through Phishing Attack

The post Solana Wallet Hack Exposes $3M Loss Through Phishing Attack appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A recent security case has renewed concerns within the Solana ecosystem after a user lost more than $3 million in a sophisticated phishing incident. The breach exposed a little-known risk within Solana’s account structure and showed how attackers can alter wallet permissions without showing any visible change during signing.  How Attackers Exploit Solana’s Permission Framework SlowMist reported that the attacker gained control of the wallet by modifying its Owner permission through a deceptive signature request. The transaction showed no balance movement, which lowered suspicion.  Moreover, many Solana users assume their account ownership works like Ethereum’s EOAs. Hence, they do not expect ownership to change with a single signature. This misunderstanding creates room for attackers who design transactions that appear harmless while delivering high-risk operations. Additionally, experts note that Solana uses several account types, including normal accounts and PDAs. Token accounts operate under rules enforced by their token program.  These structures improve efficiency but introduce more areas for attackers to target. Significantly, the recent case involved several layers of permission manipulation, which allowed the attacker to route funds through multiple platforms and addresses. Complex Laundering Routes Show Evolving Phishing Methods Investigators at MistTrack traced the attacker’s movements and found rapid, multi-platform fund rotations. The route included cross-chain cycles, CEX deposits, and the reuse of DeFi assets.  Moreover, two major wallet hubs handled most of the transfers, showing a pattern seen in other advanced laundering schemes. The victim also had another $2 million locked in DeFi platforms. Relevant protocol teams helped recover those assets, showing the value of quick reporting. How Solana Users Can Reduce Risk Security firms emphasize caution. Users should verify URLs, confirm transaction details, and avoid interacting with unknown links. Additionally, they should maintain separate wallets for high-risk activities and store valuable assets offline. Moreover, they should avoid unlimited…

USPD stablecoin protocol hacked for $1 million so far

USPD stablecoin protocol hacked for $1 million so far

The post USPD stablecoin protocol hacked for $1 million so far appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Decentralized finance protocol US Permissionless Dollar suffered a security breach resulting in unauthorized minting of its stablecoin and the draining of more than $1 million in liquidity.  According to an incident report from the USPD team’s official X account, the attacker deposited roughly 3,122 ETH as collateral and exploited a bug that allowed them to mint approximately 98 million USPD tokens in a single transaction.  The process created ten times the amount of tokens against the initial deposit and enabled the hacker to drain an additional 237 stETH collateral. The stolen stablecoins were subsequently converted into about $300,000 worth of USDC through decentralized exchange Curve. The USPD protocol developers and several cybersecurity accounts, like PeckShield Alert, issued a warning to users immediately after identifying the breach, saying:  “We have confirmed a critical exploit of the USPD protocol resulting in unauthorized minting and liquidity draining. Please DO NOT buy USPD. Revoke all approvals immediately.” USPD hacker took advantage of proxies to trick protocol into minting  The DeFi protocol’s report mentioned that the breach exploited a complex attack vector named “CPIMP,” short for Clandestine Proxy In the Middle of Proxy. USPD explained the attacker front-ran the proxy initialization on September 16 during deployment using a Multicall3 transaction.  2/ This was not a flaw in our smart contract logic. The USPD protocol underwent rigorous security audits by top-tier firms @NethermindEth and Resonance. Our code is fully unit-tested and adheres to strict industry standards. The logic itself remains secure. — USPD.IO | The Dollar of the Decentralized Nation (@USPD_io) December 4, 2025 The hacker used CPIMP to seize administrative rights silently before the protocol’s scripts were fully executed, waiting for months to start minting coins without authorization. They implemented a “shadow” contract that forwarded calls to USPD’s audited code, then subtly implemented an event…

Next Crypto to Explode as Solana Hits $140 Ceiling

Next Crypto to Explode as Solana Hits $140 Ceiling

What to Know: Solana stalls near $140 and ETF flows reshape liquidity as DEX volumes cool off. Money starts to rotate into projects with real narratives or structural links to Bitcoin’s liquidity base. Bitcoin Hyper brings SVM-powered smart contracts and ultra-fast execution to Bitcoin, aiming to unlock DeFi and dApps for BTC holders. Maxi Doge channels trader culture into a meme token with competitions, dynamic staking, and a growing presale-backed war chest. Solana’s the talk of the town. $SOL has been grinding against the $140 ceiling as spot altcoin ETFs soak up liquidity and DEX volumes cool off. Perps funding has normalized, leverage is bleeding out, and the easy ‘buy-any-SOL-ecosystem-name’ trade looks tired for now. When that happens, the hot money usually rotates. You start to see flows move away from the obvious beta plays and into projects with real narratives, cleaner tokenomics, or structural links to Bitcoin’s liquidity base. In 2021, it was EVM sidechains. In 2024, it was Solana DeFi. This post-SOL catch-up phase feels different. Regulated ETFs pulling in capital make it harder for pure meme beta to sustain parabolic runs without substance. Traders are suddenly asking annoying questions again: what does this chain actually do; what’s the throughput, where does yield come from; why does this token need to exist? That backdrop is exactly where three very different plays stand out as the next crypto to explode: 1. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) as a high-throughput Bitcoin Layer 2. 2. Maxi Doge ($MAXI) as a leverage-obsessed meme. 3. Dogwifhat ($WIF) as Solana’s culture coin that already proved it can run when conditions align. 1. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER): SVM Powered Bitcoin Layer 2 Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is bridging the gap between Bitcoin’s security and Solana’s speed. By using Solana Virtual Machine technology to run a Layer 2 on top of Bitcoin. It delivers the holy grail of crypto: sub-second transaction times and penny fees, all secured by the Bitcoin network. Why it matters: $BTC Deployed: It turns ‘store of value’ Bitcoin into programmable money for DeFi, NFTs, and Gaming. Dev-Ready: Uses familiar Rust-based tools, inviting the vast Solana developer community to build on Bitcoin. We break down the project in more detail in our ‘What is Bitcoin Hyper’ guide, but this magic stems from the use of a canonical bridge to ensure your wrapped $BTC is transferred safely between layers. The market is taking notice. The presale has already smashed past $29M. Even more telling? On-chain sleuths have spotted heavy whale activity, with one buy hitting $500K. Liquidity is loading up, and smart money is getting in early. Our experts see $HYPER potentially hitting $0.08625 by the end of 2026, which could mean an ROI of 544% if you invested at today’s price. And with 40% staking rewards for those in get in early, there are even more ways to potentially see a return. Buy your $HYPER today for $0.013375. 2. Maxi Doge ($MAXI): Meme Play for the 1000x Leverage Mindset Maxi Doge ($MAXI) is built around one idea: never skip leg day, never skip a pump. The project leans hard into a ‘240-lb canine juggernaut’ persona, channeling the 1000x leverage mentality that still defines a big slice of crypto trading culture. Maxi Doge’s future could be gamified speculation. Holder-only trading competitions, leaderboards, and rewards will create a meta-game where traders flex their PnL and grind for status. The ‘Leverage King Culture’ branding turns what many people already do, degenerate trading, into a community sport instead of an isolated experience on a sterile exchange screen. Want in? We’ve got you covered, ‘bro’, with our ‘How to Buy Maxi Doge’ guide. Under the hood, the Maxi Fund treasury is designed to support liquidity and partnerships, giving the team ammunition for CEX listings, marketing pushes, and cross-ecosystem collabs if momentum builds. That matters in a meme cycle where visibility and depth can make or break a token once the initial hype fades. The Maxi Doge presale has raised over $4.2M with tokens currently available at $0.0002715, putting it firmly in micro-cap territory where even modest inflows can move the needle. Staking offers a dynamic APY currently at 72%, rewarding early believers willing to lock in and help stabilize the base. If you want meme exposure aligned with trader culture rather than pure randomness, check out the $MAXI presale. 3. Dogwifhat ($WIF): Solana’s Culture Coin With Robinhood Reach Dogwifhat ($WIF) is already a proven name in the Solana meme sector, less about utility and more about culture, branding, and community. It’s a meme coin that doesn’t pretend to solve DeFi fragmentation or reinvent infrastructure; it leans fully into being a digital totem for Solana’s fun side. It couldn’t be simpler. It’s a dog… ’wif’ a hat. Built on Solana, $WIF benefits from high-speed, low-fee transactions, making it easy for retail traders to rotate in and out without worrying about gas overhead on smaller tickets. That’s critical in meme rotations, where traders often ladder in with many small buys and social sentiment moves fast. The project’s ecosystem is driven heavily by its community, with fun tools like ‘WIF Hat Generators’ helping push the brand into every corner of Crypto Twitter and beyond. Significant whale and retail interest have translated into deep liquidity and high trading volumes during peak cycles, proving that culture plus liquidity is still a powerful combination. A major inflection point came in May 2025, when Robinhood listed $WIF, triggering a sharp price spike and cementing it among the leading Solana meme coins. Today, $WIF is frequently cited as a top contender for traders who still want Solana exposure but prefer pure meme beta over infrastructure narratives. Get your $WIF on top exchanges like Binance. Recap: With Solana pinned near $140 and altcoin ETFs soaking up attention, traders are rotating into clearer narratives. Bitcoin Hyper, Maxi Doge, and Dogwifhat each target different slices of that demand. Remember, this isn’t intended as financial advice, and you should always do your own research before investing.
