🐻 The Sandbox has contained a cross-chain bridge vulnerability that allowed unbacked $SAND to be minted on Base and $BNB Smart Chain. The project disabled bridging on both networks, said user wallets were not compromised and reported an impact below 0.01% of SAND’s total supply. An independent Crypto.news analysis found the distorted face-value mint was not the real loss: roughly 14.75 million SAND left the Ethereum adapter, with about 80 $ETH extracted. Why it matters: cross-chain permissions can create systemic supply risk even when the underlying wallets and canonical token remain secure.

🚀 Crypto is holding most of last week's breakout as markets turn to Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's first Jackson Hole address. $BTC stayed above 77,100 after gaining more than 21% in seven days; $ETH traded near 2,442 with an almost 28% weekly rise; $SOL held near 94 after climbing 24%. CoinDesk reported the Monday consolidation, while CryptoPotato independently recorded the same broad rally and Treasury-driven liquidity catalyst. Why it matters: the three majors remain elevated, but the next macro signal could reset rate expectations and risk appetite.

🐻 BounceBit will permanently retire its standalone Layer 1 after an authorization flaw let an attacker move about 286.5 million $BB , worth roughly $3 million, from nine accounts.
BounceBit says no private keys, signatures, wallets or exchange accounts were compromised. The project will reissue BB as a BEP-20 token on $BNB Chain from a pre-attack snapshot that excludes the unauthorized transfers. Because the network was built around Bitcoin restaking and dual-token staking secured by $BTC and BB, this is a major infrastructure reset, not routine maintenance.

🚀 Decentralized exchanges captured a record 19.5% of combined crypto spot volume in July—even though their own volume fell 9.82% to $176 billion—because centralized spot activity dropped faster, down 31.2% to $727 billion.
CoinDesk Research and CryptoSlate report the same record share. On-chain activity was led by Solana, followed by BNB Chain and Ethereum, making $SOL, $BNB and $ETH the networks most directly tied to the shift. Why it matters: liquidity is moving closer to on-chain price discovery, but the record reflects relative resilience rather than growth in absolute DEX trading.
