Web3 asset data platform RootData released the progress data for the 2026 Q2 TGE. From the time distribution perspective, the crypto market is entering a concentrated release period for Q2 TGE, with market risk appetite and liquidity activity rebounding in sync. Among them, MegaETH has become the core anchor point of this window period. This project focuses on "ultra-high performance real-time execution" of EVM L2. After completing a $30 million financing, it officially TGE'd on April 30 and simultaneously launched on major exchanges such as Coinbase, Upbit, and Bithumb. According to the "Upcoming Issuance" section data from RootData's market, TGE is showing characteristics of a "short-term concentrated explosion": on April 29, Gensyn completed its TGE, on the 30th, MegaETH and Real Finance TGE'd simultaneously, and on May 1, Kuvi followed closely with its launch. Avant is expected to push forward its TGE in the latter part of Q2. At the same time, Polymarket data also provided forward-looking signals: before June, it may enter a peak issuance interval. Dreamcash (64%), Arc (46%), and Oro (40%) are in the first tier and may form the core of the next liquidity competition. Overall, this round of Q2 TGE is not a confirmation signal for the market but rather the starting point for liquidity redistribution. The subsequent market strength will depend on the absorption capacity of the new supply and the degree of support from the project's fundamentals for valuation.

MegaETH announced that the TGE will take place on April 30, and the probability of "MegaETH issuing tokens before April 30" on Polymarket is currently 95%, which may be related to the settlement rules.The market settlement rule states that if MegaETH officially launches the governance token before 11:59 PM Eastern Time on the specified date, the prediction market result will be determined as "yes"; otherwise, it will be determined as "no." Another key rule is "the token must be publicly transferable and tradable; merely issuing a related announcement does not meet the determination criteria," which may cause the probability to not reach 100%. Odaily Seer’s prophet channel continues to monitor the prediction market and sees changes before pricing.

The team promptly disconnected the affected contract and worked with major exchanges to blacklist the hacker's wallet, limiting the losses to under $90,000.Previously, blockchain security company PeckShield estimated the losses to be $400,000. The attacker exploited Aethir's cross-chain smart contract AethirOFTAdapter to transfer the stolen funds from the BNB Chain to Tron.Aethir stated that its Ethereum mainnet ATH token supply was unaffected and plans to announce a detailed compensation plan and incident analysis next week, collaborating with exchanges such as Binance, Upbit, and Bithumb to freeze funds.

Currently, all attacked contracts have been disconnected, and the vulnerability has been controlled; the total supply of ATH on the Ethereum mainnet has not been affected; the ETH-ARB cross-chain bridge on Squid has not been impacted; the actual amount affected for users is controlled within $90,000; the team will announce a complete compensation plan next week.Aethir is currently working with multiple law enforcement agencies and exchanges (Binance, Upbit, Bithumb, HTX, etc.) to freeze funds and track the attackers. Additionally, the team has published the addresses of the affected contracts, reminding users not to interact with them temporarily.
