Solana-Based Step Finance Collapses Following Major Treasury HackStep Finance, one of the best-known portfolio management platforms on the Solana network, has officially ceased operations following a massive security breach and unsuccessful attempts to secure emergency funding. Key Takeaways Step Finance shut down after a January 31 hack that drained over 261,000 SOL from its treasury.Losses were estimated between $27M and nearly $40M, and recovery funding efforts failed.The closure includes SolanaFloor and Remora Markets.The STEP token collapsed more than 96%, with buyback and redemption plans now in development.

Security Breach Triggered Collapse According to the team, the incident occurred on January 31, 2026, when hackers executed what was described as a sophisticated attack targeting senior staff devices. The breach allowed unauthorized access to treasury and fee wallets. Roughly 261,854 SOL was stolen in the attack. Initial loss estimates ranged between $27 million and $30 million, but some reports later placed total damage closer to $40 million as market conditions fluctuated. Despite the setback, the team spent nearly four weeks pursuing emergency liquidity solutions, including bridge financing and potential acquisition talks.

Step Finance is shutting down — and the way it happened is more instructive than the headline number. On January 31, 2026, during APAC hours, attackers compromised devices belonging to members of Step Finance's executive team. There was no smart contract exploit. No code vulnerability. No on-chain flaw. The breach was entirely operational — compromised endpoints gave attackers access to treasury and fee wallets, from which they unstaked and transferred roughly 261,854 $SOL . At the time of the attack, that was worth somewhere between $27M and $30M. A later full review placed total losses closer to $40M after accounting for cascading impacts. The team spent the following three weeks exploring every recovery path — bridge financing, acquisition offers, partnership structures. They recovered approximately $4.7M working with security partners and using protections built into Solana's newer token standards. The gap was still too wide. On February 23rd, Step Finance announced the immediate wind-down of all operations, including SolanaFloor — one of the most consistently useful Solana ecosystem media outlets — and Remora Markets, its tokenized equity trading platform. STEP token collapsed more than 96% to $0.00057 after the hack, then dropped another 36% on the shutdown announcement. A pre-incident snapshot buyback program for STEP holders is in development. Remora rToken holders can redeem 1:1 for $USDC through a separate process. SolanaFloor's archive stays online. What I keep coming back to is the nature of the attack. Solana's smart contract layer was never touched. The vulnerability was entirely in the human and device infrastructure surrounding a team managing tens of millions in treasury assets. That's not a Solana problem — it's a DeFi operations problem that exists across every chain and never shows up in a security audit. #solana #StepFinance #defi #CryptoSecurity #Hack

🚨🚨Balancer DeFi Protocol Hit by Suspected $70M Hacker Attack🚨🚨 Today, Balancer, a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol, has reportedly suffered a significant suspected hacker attack resulting in asset losses exceeding $70 million. On-chain data and monitoring by blockchain analytics firms indicate that over $70 million worth of assets were transferred from Balancer's vault to new addresses. The stolen assets include large quantities of WETH, Staked ETH (stETH), and wrapped stETH (wstETH), among other ERC-20 tokens. The exact nature and method of the attack remain under investigation, but it aligns with a broader trend of sophisticated DeFi exploits involving flash loans and manipulation of protocol vulnerabilities. Additionally, the attack on Balancer appears to be ongoing or evolving, with some reports putting total losses across Balancer and its multiple forked protocols at around $83 to $88 million, including other chains such as Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, and Sonic. This incident highlights the increasing security challenges faced by DeFi platforms, where smart contract vulnerabilities and complex on-chain mechanisms are exploited by attackers, often via flash loan attacks that allow temporary liquidity to orchestrate exploits without upfront capital. Such high-profile attacks underline the critical need for improved security measures in DeFi, including robust smart contract audits, better real-time monitoring, and more secure oracle systems to prevent price manipulation. Balancer has not yet issued an official statement but investigations and further security reviews are expected as the community works to understand the full scope and impact of the attack. #Hack $ETH

Shibarium Bridge Hack: $2.3M Stolen — SHIB Dev Dares Hacker to Take the Cash! 🔥 Shibarium Bridge Hack: $2.3M Stolen — SHIB Dev Dares Hacker to Take the Cash! 🔥 📰 Summary The $2.3 million Shibarium Bridge hack has taken a dramatic twist! Developer Kaal Dhairya sarcastically challenged the hacker who drained millions through a flash loan exploit, saying: > “Yo, Shibarium bridge attacker, wake up — grab free cash before the offer expires this time and do something right.” 😏 Meanwhile, K9 Finance, Shibarium’s staking partner, raised its bounty from 5 ETH to 20 ETH if the hacker returns 248 billion stolen KNINE tokens, which are now worthless after being blacklisted on-chain. --- 💡 What is a Flash Loan Exploit? A flash loan lets users borrow massive amounts of crypto instantly — as long as they repay it within the same transaction. Hackers exploit this feature by manipulating system logic or token prices to trick protocols into sending them funds. In this case, the attacker gained control of 10 out of 12 validator keys, fooling the bridge into withdrawing $2.3M in $ETH , SHIB, ROAR, and KNINE tokens. --- {future}(ETHUSDT) ⚙️ What Happened Next To protect the network and investors, the Shibarium team introduced new security measures, including: 🚫 Suspicious wallet blocking to stop blacklisted tokens from moving ⏳ 7-day withdrawal delay for BONE tokens 🤝 Partnership with dRPC.org for secure and reliable RPC systems 🧩 Incident response template to handle future attacks quickly K9 Finance also increased its bounty to 20 ETH, hoping to recover the stolen tokens. --- 📉 Market Impact The hack caused short-term volatility in the SHIB ecosystem. Prices dipped briefly as panic selling hit, but quick action and better security restored investor confidence.

Shibarium Bridge Hack: $2.3M Stolen — SHIB Dev Dares Hacker to Take the Cash! 🔥


Shibarium Bridge Hack: $2.3M Stolen — SHIB Dev Dares Hacker to Take the Cash! 🔥
📰 Summary
The $2.3 million Shibarium Bridge hack has taken a dramatic twist!
Developer Kaal Dhairya sarcastically challenged the hacker who drained millions through a flash loan exploit, saying:
> “Yo, Shibarium bridge attacker, wake up — grab free cash before the offer expires this time and do something right.” 😏
Meanwhile, K9 Finance, Shibarium’s staking partner, raised its bounty from 5 ETH to 20 ETH if the hacker returns 248 billion stolen KNINE tokens, which are now worthless after being blacklisted on-chain.

💡 What is a Flash Loan Exploit?
A flash loan lets users borrow massive amounts of crypto instantly — as long as they repay it within the same transaction.
Hackers exploit this feature by manipulating system logic or token prices to trick protocols into sending them funds.
In this case, the attacker gained control of 10 out of 12 validator keys, fooling the bridge into withdrawing $2.3M in $ETH , SHIB, ROAR, and KNINE tokens.

⚙️ What Happened Next
To protect the network and investors, the Shibarium team introduced new security measures, including:
🚫 Suspicious wallet blocking to stop blacklisted tokens from moving
⏳ 7-day withdrawal delay for BONE tokens
🤝 Partnership with dRPC.org for secure and reliable RPC systems
🧩 Incident response template to handle future attacks quickly
K9 Finance also increased its bounty to 20 ETH, hoping to recover the stolen tokens.

📉 Market Impact
The hack caused short-term volatility in the SHIB ecosystem.
Prices dipped briefly as panic selling hit, but quick action and better security restored investor confidence.
Analysts believe that if the hacker returns the KNINE tokens or accepts the bounty, it could improve sentiment and spark a mild price recovery for SHIB.
