According to BlockSec Phalcon monitoring, an unknown USDC-OCA liquidity pool on the BSC chain was attacked, resulting in approximately 422,000 USDC being withdrawn.The attacker exploited a deflationary sellOCA() logic vulnerability of the OCA token, which allowed them to remove an equivalent amount of OCA from the liquidity pool each time they called the swap OCA token, artificially raising the token price within the pool.The attack was completed through three transactions: the first executed the attack operation, while the latter two were mainly used to pay additional block builder bribes. The attacker paid a total of approximately 43 BNB plus 69 BNB to 48club-puissant-builder, with an estimated profit of around $340,000. Another transaction in the same block failed at position 52, suspected to have been front-run by the attacker.

According to Reuters, Morgan Stanley expects U.S. stocks to outperform global markets in 2026 and is optimistic about the performance of global equities relative to credit and government bonds, supported by the growth of capital expenditures related to artificial intelligence and an improved policy environment."Driven by micro fundamentals, accelerated AI capital expenditures, and favorable policies, risk assets are well-prepared for a strong performance in 2026," the Wall Street investment bank noted in a series of global economic and strategic outlook reports released on Monday. Although the fluctuating tariff policies of the Trump administration have led to ongoing turbulence in global financial markets this year, most trade uncertainties are gradually dissipating as 2026 approaches.The bank predicts that 2026 will see "moderate" global economic growth alongside deflation, but emphasizes that "uncertainty remains high, and the range of outcomes could be extremely divergent," with "the U.S. being a key variable."Additionally, Morgan Stanley forecasts that the S&P 500 index will reach 7,800 points by the end of 2026, representing about a 16% upside from current levels, primarily driven by robust corporate earnings growth and AI-driven efficiency improvements. Under the influence of the Federal Reserve's dovish policies, U.S. small-cap stocks are expected to outperform large-cap stocks, and cyclical sectors will outperform defensive sectors. The dollar index is expected to drop to 94 in the first half of the year, before rebounding to 99 by the end of 2026.The bank also predicts that gold prices will reach $4,500 per ounce in 2026.

Sonic Labs CEO Mitchell Demeter announced that the company will launch a brand new Fee Monetization (FeeM) system to implement a deflationary model for its native token S. This system establishes a tiered reward mechanism for ecosystem builders, with reward ratios ranging from 15% to 90% based on network usage. Validators will receive a fixed 10% of the fee distribution, while the remaining portion will be burned. Transaction fees on the Sonic chain are paid in S tokens.Demeter stated that this move aims to strengthen long-term value through token burns while incentivizing developers and validators. He pointed out, "Our goal is to increase deflationary intensity and enhance long-term value synergy." The system will be officially implemented through on-chain governance voting. Additionally, Demeter revealed that Sonic is about to enter a "new phase," including a U.S. expansion plan approved by governance and the introduction of certain Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) along with proprietary Sonic Improvement Proposals (SIPs) to enhance developer usability and interoperability.
