Another real-world business accepting #Kaspa!
Seeing B THE BARBER in Tórshavn, Faroe Islands, accepting $KAS is exactly the kind of adoption we need to see more of. This is what makes a cryptocurrency more than just a number on a chart. Real businesses, real people and real payments. Everyone talks about adoption, but it starts with individual business owners willing to give new technology a chance. Every barber, shop or restaurant that accepts Kaspa helps show people that crypto can have a purpose beyond speculation. We don't need to convince the whole world overnight. We need more small steps like this, more businesses giving Kaspa a chance and more people actually using it. The price will go up and down, but real-world adoption is something worth paying attention to in the long run. Big respect to B THE BARBER for being part of this journey. Let's keep building, keep spreading the word and show people what Kaspa can do. The future of Kaspa won't be built by holding coins alone, but by putting them to use.

Shallow $BTC correction this cycle kept Long-term holders in profit. As per Glassnode
$BTC Bitcoin exchange traded funds now hold over $100 billion in assets, with recent data placing their combined AUM around $110 billion.
US spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen strong inflows, lifting net assets into the $100–110 billion range and reversing earlier 2026 outflows.
This scale of ETF ownership makes #Bitcoin a mainstream institutional asset, tying BTC more closely to traditional portfolios, macro flows and regulatory decisions.
The key signals to watch next are daily ETF flows, macro data and custody rules, which will determine whether this AUM level is stable or just a cyclical peak.

#BTC
September 12, 2017.
Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan:
“Bitcoin is a fraud.”
“Worse than tulip bulbs.”
“It will eventually blow up.”
“If any of our traders are trading it, I would fire them in a second… they are stupid.”
Bitcoin was around $4,000.
He also said it could go to $20,000 before it died.
It did.
Then it went much further.
The quote survived.
The prediction did not.
Case file: Dimon, Sept 2017.
A $3.17M #BarnBridge mystery just resurfaced on Ethereum.
One wallet was sitting on 3,171,993 USDT but the danger wasn't obvious.
The problem?
An old BarnBridge approval was still exposing the funds to a potential attack involving Proposal #15.
Then someone noticed.
A whitehat researcher, onechesss, identified the wallet as the largest at-risk address and escalated the warning through SEAL 911.
The owner apparently received the warning.
The funds were moved.
$3.17M potentially saved.
But here's where the story gets interesting.
There was no bounty agreement.
So 34 days later, the researcher left an onchain message asking for voluntary recognition/reward.
And today, August 24, another message appeared:
“this is one final follow-up”
Same wallet.
Same story.
Same $3.17M.
The blockchain doesn't forget.
We can see the warning.
We can see the timeline.
We can see the wallet.
And we can see the researcher asking:
Was saving $3.17M worth a bounty?
Case file: BarnBridge Proposal #15.
The money survived.
Now we're waiting to see how the story ends. 🕵️♂️

🚨 $550K GONE IN A FLASH! 😱
Someone just got absolutely wrecked on Arbitrum…
They signed a sneaky phishing “increaseAllowance” / infinite USDC approval… and boom — $549,744+ USDC drained straight out of their wallet in seconds.
Victim: 0xa707d3d5d174f59d2c2b81491bdc5650e55f065b
The brutal multicall drain is right there in the screenshot 👇
One wrong click. One signature. Half a million gone forever.
Stay sharp out there. Never sign random approvals.
🚨 Minimalist USD ($USM) drained $136K
2026-08-09 | #Ethereum
Attack Type: Flash-loan oracle / sliding-price manipulation
Attacker flash-loaned 11,580 $WETH from Balancer → spammed USM.defund() 65 times, burning the entire ~62M $FUM position against the ETH pool.
Each defund call twisted the internal bidAskAdjustment (_defundFum → ls.bidAskAdjustment.wadMulDown), chunking the exit so the effective FUM sell price got inflated to ~$7.1M while the real oracle sat at ~$1,921.
Result: every burn extracted far more $ETH than fair value. Loan repaid, net ~70.83 ETH profit straight out of the USM ETH reserve.
TX: etherscan.io/tx/0xfae5e751b8…
Classic “manipulate the adjustment curve, exit above mark” play. Another reminder that internal sliding prices + flash loans still print.
Historically #Bitcoin has hit the absolute bear market bottom at exactly 23 months after the ATH in the previous cycle, will it happen again ? bitcoin:native
‼️ Ostium exploiter just sent another 2,000 ETH to Tornado Cash ~$3.9M in $ETH still sitting across the remaining wallets almost certainly heading the same way. 0xC92f36EcDF2c2a9f83F5f806634e4144Fc4728d4

$501K lost due to phishing drain on Morpho/Steakhouse (#Base)
Attacker drained ~501K USDC from a Morpho position via phishing contract.
Immediately swapped $USDC → $WETH on Uniswap V4 (no slippage), got sandwiched by #MEV bot. MEV extracted ~$370K, attacker left with only ~67.9 WETH (~$129K).
Attacker: 0x920d3b63541eAFe13E05dc4f3453904102c39708
Victim: 0x920d3b63541eAFe13E05dc4f3453904102c39708
$BTC has historically traded above the median cost basis of long-term holders essentially what experienced investors paid for their coins. That level now sits around $63k, and price recently dipped below it for the first time since the 2020 Covid crash and the 2018/19 bear market low, then bounced almost exactly there. when even patient long-term #Bitcoin holders are at a loss, the market is usually near a bottom and $63k acted as that floor.
$BTC has reached the $64K cost basis of coins accumulated over the past year.
This means the average buyer from the last 12 months is now roughly at break-even. With the market trading at its consensus entry price, neither bulls nor bears have a clear advantage, making this a critical #Bitcoin level to watch for the next major move.
