🚨 $35 million disappeared in just six hours—but the blockchain wasn't hacked 👀
The losses weren't caused by Bitcoin or Ethereum.
Instead, they stemmed from compromised admin keys and smart contract vulnerabilities
📌 Reported losses
🔴 $AFX : ~$24M
🔴 Verus–Ethereum Bridge: ~$7.5M
(The same vulnerability was reportedly exploited again after a previous incident)
🔴 B² Network: ~$3.9M
(Admin upgrade key compromised)
The common thread?
❌ No Bitcoin exploit.
❌ No Ethereum protocol failure
The damage came from poor key management and vulnerable smart contracts
Unfortunately, markets rarely make that distinction.
Once headlines read "DeFi hacked," sentiment often turns negative before the technical details are understood
📌 The biggest loss may not be $35 million—
It may be trust
As institutional capital continues entering crypto, security audits and bug bounty programs are becoming essential—not optional
