Сообщение ChainCatcher, DeFi кредитный протокол Venus Protocol запустил Liquidity Hub, который предназначен для создания единого уровня распределения средств для экосистемы Venus. Пользователи просто должны внести один вид актива, чтобы получить соответствующий Hub Token. Liquidity Hub будет автоматически искать более оптимальные комбинации APY в зависимости от возможностей дохода на различных рынках и распределять средства между продуктами, такими как Core, Flux, Fixed-Rate Vaults, без необходимости ручного управления позициями пользователями между несколькими продуктами.Liquidity Hub не является новым кредитным рынком, а представляет собой единый вход в ликвидность, построенный на существующих продуктах Venus. Распределение средств, ребалансировка и потоки базовых активов записываются в блокчейне, что обеспечивает открытость, прозрачность и возможность проверки. В настоящее время Liquidity Hub v1 развернут на BNB Chain, в будущем он также подключит больше кредитных рынков, институциональных продуктов доходности и новых источников дохода.

Сообщение ChainCatcher, что Venus Protocol объявляет о запуске функции залога и кредитования токенизированных акций (bStocks) на BNB Chain. Теперь пользователи могут вносить такие активы, как TSLAB, NVDAB, SPCXB, в Venus Core Pool в качестве залога, заимствуя активы, такие как USDT и USDC, не продавая свои позиции, при этом сохраняя экспозицию к ценам акций. Это первый случай, когда Venus поддерживает токенизированные акции в качестве залоговых активов.С запуском bStocks токенизированные акции официально присоединяются к рынку ликвидности на блокчейне, которым делятся Venus с BTC, ETH, BNB и стейблкоинами. После токенизированных активов, таких как XAUm, Venus дополнительно расширяет диапазон залоговых активов на блокчейне до акций, способствуя глубокой интеграции RWA и DeFi.

Согласно сообщениям ChainCatcher, по данным аналитика на блокчейне Ю Цзиня, в марте атакующий, участвовавший в ликвидации залога THE на Venus, продал 1912 ETH за 3,26 миллиона USDT за час до этого, чтобы погасить свой заем на Aave. Эти займы были взяты для манипуляции ликвидацией залога THE на Venus в марте. В настоящее время у него все еще есть непогашенные 6,78 миллиона USDT на Aave.

According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi's monitoring, the Venus attacker transferred 2,301 ETH (approximately 5.32 million USD) to address 0xa21...23A7f, and then gradually transferred it into Tornado Cash for laundering. Currently, there is still 17.45 million USD worth of ETH on-chain.

Venus Protocol posted on platform X regarding the Kelp incident, stating that the platform has zero exposure to rsETH, has not incurred any bad debts, and user funds are safe.As a precaution, based on the recommendations of the risk management party Allezlabs, the platform has temporarily adjusted the collateral factors for the following six types of assets to 0: USDe, sUSDe, SolvBTC, xSolvBTC, USD1, XAUM. Users can still directly repay and withdraw the above assets through the Venus UI, and updates will be released once the collateral rates return to normal.

Venus Protocol announced on the X platform that the isolated pools on Venus have now stopped operating, all pools have been suspended, but user funds are safe, and withdrawals remain open. Users can choose to migrate or withdraw based on whether their assets are on Venus Core.

According to tracking data from the Web3 asset data platform RootData X, in the past 7 days, the decentralized lending platform Venus has been the project that X (Twitter) top figures have unfollowed the most. The new influential figures on X who have unfollowed this project include cryptocurrency trader Loomdart (@loomdart), crypto KOL Yuyue (@yuyue_chris), and Chinese Web3 KOL Calman (@CalmanBTC).

Cysic officially announced the open-source Graph-First zkVM proof framework Venus. Venus is built on top of ZisK, abandoning the traditional HAL model that treats the proof process as a series of isolated backend functions, and encoding the entire ZK proof process into a global computation graph, decoupling logic from hardware execution.Tests show that Venus improves end-to-end proof time by over 9% compared to the existing ZisK 0.16.1, significantly reduces CPU-GPU synchronization overhead, and is compatible with GPU, FPGA, and even ASIC.Cysic has been listed as an integration partner of Ethproofs and will directly operate as an Ethereum zkEVM node. The ZisK zkVM that Venus is based on uses a custom instruction set and is one of the five major zkVMs explicitly listed as candidates in the official discussion of the Ethereum EIP-8025 upgrade, allowing Cysic to directly enter the core track of the Ethereum L1 proof market.

According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi (@ai_9684xtpa), the Venus flash loan attacker transferred 1,743 ETH (approximately 3.78 million USD) to an address starting with 0x7a7 fifty minutes ago.

According to on-chain analyst Yu Jin's monitoring, the Venus attacker has exchanged 2,178 BNB, 20 BTC, and 1.466 million CAKE for 2,257.3 ETH, worth 4.72 million dollars. From an on-chain perspective, he used 9.92 million U to execute this attack, which has currently returned about 5 million dollars in ETH. It is still unclear whether there were any long or short trades of THE in CEX to profit from this attack.

According to PeckShieldAlert monitoring, the THE market on Venus was attacked, resulting in approximately $2.15 million in bad debt.A month ago, the attacker withdrew 7,400 ETH from Tornado Cash and borrowed $9.9 million to buy THE. The attacker then directly donated 36.1 million THE to the vTHE contract, bypassing the supply limit and pushing the exchange rate up by 3.81 times. Justin Sun (Top 5 XVS holder) deposited 621,000 XVS worth $1.95 million into HTX after the attack occurred. BNB Bridge Exploiter (Top 16 XVS holder) currently still holds 135,000 XVS, worth approximately $421,000.

Venus Protocol released a statement regarding the THE market event, stating that this incident was not a flash loan attack, but rather a result of the attacker exploiting a supply cap vulnerability in the old code of the protocol. The team indicated that the attacker had been accumulating THE tokens for about 9 months, gradually establishing a dominant supply position on Venus.The announcement pointed out that the attacker bypassed the normal deposit process by directly transferring THE tokens into the protocol contract, thereby breaking through the supply cap limit of 14.5 million THE. They manipulated DEX prices by taking advantage of the low on-chain liquidity. As the external price was gradually reflected by the TWAP oracle, the attacker borrowed assets (such as CAKE, BNB, etc.) against the inflated collateral value, then bought more THE to drive up the price, and continuously transferred THE into the vTHE market to increase the collateral value. This cycle once pushed the price from about $0.27 to about $0.53, ultimately leaving bad debt in the protocol after the positions were liquidated.Venus stated that it has currently suspended the THE market, reduced its collateral factor to 0, and suspended withdrawals. Additionally, as a precautionary measure, the collateral factors for 8 markets including BCH, LTC, AAVE, POL, FIL, TWT, UNI, and lisUSD have also been reduced to 0. The team and security partners are continuing to investigate and will release a complete post-analysis report in the future.

According to market news, Sun Yuchen withdrew 621,071 XVS from Binance at an average price of $12.21 two years ago, worth $7.58 million. After holding for more than two years, this address has transferred all tokens to a new address for the first time, and the recipient address is currently unknown.During the holding period, the price of XVS dropped nearly 75%, and its current value is only about $1.95 million.

A wallet address that received 7,447 ETH (approximately $16.29 million) from Tornado Cash, "0x7a7," is suspected to be behind the CAKE/THE liquidation cascade event on Venus Protocol.The attacker borrowed $9.92 million in stablecoins using ETH as collateral on Aave, then hoarded a large amount of THE and allegedly manipulated the price upwards on centralized exchanges, subsequently depositing 36.1 million THE into Venus to borrow assets like BTC, BNB, and CAKE.About 40 minutes later, the price of THE collapsed, triggering a series of liquidations, resulting in $2.15 million in bad debts for Venus. The attacker extracted approximately $5.07 million in assets, with actual profits potentially being higher—mainly from short positions on centralized exchanges during the crash.

Venus Protocol releases updates on the abnormal activity in the THE liquidity pool. In addition to previously suspending THE borrowing and withdrawals, the collateral factors (CF) for 7 markets have now been reduced to 0 as a precautionary measure against markets where a single user holds an excessively high proportion of collateral. The 7 markets are BCH, LTC, UNI, AAVE, FIL, TWT, and lisUSD, while all other markets remain unaffected and continue to operate normally.The preliminary assessment of the attack method indicates that the attacker began accumulating THE tokens slowly through normal deposit processes starting in June 2025, ultimately holding 84% of the cap (approximately 12.2 million THE). Yesterday, the hacker directly transferred THE tokens into the protocol contract, instantly increasing the supply and creating a massive amount of collateral. They then engaged in recursive price manipulation, taking advantage of the extremely low on-chain liquidity of THE combined with the TWAP oracle delay. The hacker initiated a loop: depositing THE, borrowing other assets, using the borrowed assets to buy more THE on-chain, and waiting for the TWAP oracle to update and drive up the price. Venus stated that it is committed to transparency and will release a complete report after the investigation concludes.

Venus Protocol announced on the X platform that, in light of the ongoing investigation into the abnormal activities in the THE fund pool, precautionary measures have been taken to immediately suspend all THE borrowing and withdrawals to prevent any further abuse. This measure will remain in effect until the investigation is concluded. All other markets are unaffected and will continue to operate normally.

According to on-chain analyst @ai_9684xtpa, a certain whale built a position of 3.667 million THE at an average price of $0.2693 one month ago. After the attacker launched a flash loan attack on Venus, causing the token price to surge, all tokens were transferred to Binance, and if sold, would yield a profit of $729,000.

Venus Protocol posted on platform X that there is unusual activity in the THE liquidity pool and is actively investigating. Currently, it seems that only the THE and CAKE markets are affected.
