PeckShield data shows that in August 2026, the cryptocurrency industry experienced 50 major hacking attacks, an increase of 67% compared to July; losses decreased to $136.3 million, a drop of 49.5%. Among them, Tectonicfi lost approximately $74 million, and after Cronos suspended its network, only about $6 million was transferred out.Digital asset security company AEREDIUM launched AERSeal, which aims to replace the single private key controlling privileged smart contract functions with a multi-party authorized threshold signature. This product stores key shares in hardware-certified secure isolated environments and supports Ethereum Virtual Machine and compatible chains. AERSeal does not reconstruct the complete private key but generates signatures through the CGGMP24 threshold signature protocol. AEREDIUM founder and CEO Albert Dadon stated that the product can delegate permissions for minting, upgrading, and other functions to the threshold key, and confirm the transfer completion through on-chain verification; customers can also independently verify the allocated threshold key.

According to a report by Malwarebytes, scammers are using the hype around "GTA 6" to set up phishing websites, claiming to sell leaked versions of the game for $50 or 1 SOL, luring visitors to connect their wallets and sign malicious transactions. The website contains approximately 2.4 MB of malicious scripts that can identify wallet assets on seven chains: Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Chain, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Base, and Fantom, and immediately transfer assets or gain permissions for subsequent transfers of tokens and NFTs based on the permissions signed by the victims.Before triggering, the script checks the visitor's IP to evade ten countries, including Armenia and Russia. Malwarebytes advises users to be cautious of any websites claiming to sell leaked versions of GTA 6, to carefully verify the authorization content before signing transactions, and to refuse operations that transfer the entire balance or request token access permissions.

According to a research report published by RootData Research, the total trading volume of mainstream cryptocurrency exchanges in the TradFi sector surpassed $1.3 trillion in the first half of 2026, nearly a tenfold increase compared to the entire year of 2025, with TradFi derivatives accounting for over 98%, becoming the core engine driving the explosive growth of the sector.The exchange landscape is shifting from "unipolar concentration" to multipolar competition. Binance, while maintaining a leading position in the TradFi sector with a cumulative share of 68.3%, saw its monthly trading volume share decline from 78.8% at the beginning of the year to 58.2% in August. Meanwhile, second-tier exchanges such as OKX, Gate, and Hyperliquid are rapidly expanding, with market shares of 18.2%, 10.7%, and 9.9% respectively in August.In the core submarket of stock derivatives, entering August, Binance still dominated with an average daily trading volume of $14.927 billion; OKX established an advantage in trading costs with the industry's lowest spread of 0.0091%, achieving a comprehensive score tied for second with Gate. Gate has recently shown independent growth, recording four consecutive months of triple-digit month-on-month growth from May to August, and in mid-August, its ±2% weighted depth ranked first in the industry for 11 consecutive trading days. The competitive logic of the TradFi sector may be shifting from a battle for traffic to a competition across comprehensive dimensions such as position size, market depth, trading costs, and variety coverage.

US President Trump stated on social media that Iran has officially become a failed state. It is "dead"! They have no navy, no air force, no currency, they cannot afford to pay soldiers and police, the inflation rate is as high as 300%, and their leadership is completely chaotic, unable to properly represent the country.The only things they have are "fake news" from the United States, the willingness to kill protesters (over 100,000 have died so far. They must be tried for crimes against humanity!), and a set of nice "nonsense."

According to Slow Mist monitoring, Float Protocol suffered a flash loan attack, resulting in a loss of approximately $28,000 (10.71 ETH). The attacker manipulated the Uniswap V3 spot price (slot0) through a flash loan, leading to incorrect pricing of LP shares in the Hypervisor contract, with key functions lacking TWAP/oracle verification and slippage protection mechanisms.The attacker distorted the values of currentTick() and getTotalAmounts() by making large trades in the V3 liquidity pool, then repeatedly deposited and withdrew the inflated share value to arbitrage.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China has launched a special action to cultivate artificial intelligence application service providers, encouraging various regions to increase the procurement of large models, intelligent agents, and Token services through first purchase and first use, risk compensation, and other methods, while using tools such as "computing power vouchers" to reduce computing power costs.The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will also establish a national resource pool for AI application service providers, aiming to exceed 2,000 by the end of 2026 and no less than 3,000 by the end of 2027. These service providers mainly help enterprises implement AI projects, with services ranging from early consulting, program design, to system development, integration delivery, and then to subsequent operation and maintenance and security governance.This policy also specifically names FDE. The Ministry encourages service providers to form FDE teams to directly address project implementation issues on-site with users. Various regions are also required to open real business scenarios, organize supply and demand matching, and turn high-frequency, essential business needs into standardized AI products that can be delivered repeatedly.

Polygon disclosed multiple previously undisclosed security vulnerabilities recently fixed through two hard forks, Austin and Kyoto, which could affect its proof-of-stake network. The vulnerabilities involve Polygon's Bor and Heimdall clients, including denial-of-service risks, validator resource exhaustion, and defects affecting checkpoint and milestone processing.Polygon stated that the fixes were privately tested before being deployed to the mainnet and publicly disclosed. The most severe issue involved Heimdall, where carefully crafted transactions could force validators to perform excessive processing work, disrupting the network. The Austin hard fork also fixed two denial-of-service risks in Bor that could slow down block processing or cause node crashes. Polygon indicated that these vulnerabilities were not exploited on the mainnet, and the fixes were proactively completed before the details of the vulnerabilities were made public.

Cosmos Labs released a technical report, admitting that it previously misjudged an integer underflow vulnerability in the Cosmos EVM, which led to attacks on six blockchain networks between August 20 and 25, resulting in a total theft of approximately $5.7 million in tokens. The attacker exploited the vulnerability to underflow account balances to the maximum value of 2^256-1, then performed a reverse operation to transfer the inflated balance out, thereby stealing tokens from the target accounts without creating tokens out of thin air.The report shows that researchers submitted the defect through a bug bounty program on April 25, but testers were unable to reproduce it on the existing Cosmos chain configuration, so Cosmos Labs silently patched it in May. Independent researchers confirmed in early August that the vulnerability affected all Cosmos EVM chains, and Cosmos Labs released a patch on August 19, but the first attack occurred about 20 hours later.In terms of specific losses, MANTRA lost 720.9 million tokens (approximately $3.6 million), TAC lost nearly 3 billion TAC, and KiiChain lost about 148 million KII. Both MANTRA and KiiChain criticized Cosmos Labs for not notifying the affected chains in advance and suggesting a shutdown, with KiiChain stating that the patch would take several days to deploy while a shutdown would only take a few minutes. Cosmos Labs stated that it has coordinated responses with 40 chains and assisted 13 chains in completing repairs or shutdowns before being attacked.
