đč ETH moved above $2,500, while exchange balances were reported to be at relatively low levels.
đč SOL was the standout among major cryptocurrencies, rising around +11.8%, amid attention around a proposal to accelerate the pace of supply contraction.
đš Security Alert: Realio Network suffered a multi-chain attack, with approximately $10.43 million worth of RIO tokens reportedly stolen.
đïž A U.S. government wallet linked to assets previously seized from FTX and Alameda was also observed transferring 24.41 BTC. The amount is relatively small compared with the overall BTC market, but the movement is being closely monitored.
đ Institutional activity remains strong, with public reports indicating positive net inflows into crypto investment products during the August 27 session, including Bitcoin-related products.
Overall: Market sentiment was positive yesterday, supported by momentum in BTC and ETH, while SOL clearly outperformed. However, security incidents and intraday price movements show that volatility remains elevated.
