Decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol 0VIX has been the target of a recent attack, resulting in a loss of approximately $2 million. Web3 security auditor Hacken shared the details of the attack on Twitter, providing the transaction ID of the exploit. The stolen tokens include USDC, USDT, and GHST.

In response to the attack, 0VIX has paused its POS and zkEVM markets, including oToken transfers, minting, and liquidations. While only POS has been affected so far, zkEVM has been paused as a precaution and is expected to be enabled again soon. The protocol is working with its security partners to investigate the situation, and further communications will follow shortly.

  • Hyperliquid Policy Center Urges US SEC and CFTC to Adopt Unified Perpetual Contract Framework

    On August 25, the Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) submitted comments to the US SEC and CFTC, stating that the two agencies have been striving to find answers regarding the classification of perpetual contracts over the past year. HPC believes that perpetual contracts for stocks, which possess traditional features of futures contracts, can be classified as securities futures. HPC urges the US SEC and CFTC to establish a unified classification system for perpetual contracts, based on the characteristics of each contract and its trading methods, grouping similar products together regardless of whether they reference Bitcoin, crude oil, or individual securities. HPC calls for the US SEC and CFTC to take the following four actions: 1. Confirm that the definition of securities futures includes the established features of futures contracts, allowing cash-settled stock perpetual contracts with these features to be listed as securities futures. 2. Retain the flexibility that trading venues currently have in making product listing decisions. 3. Maintain consistency in classification between the two agencies so that perpetual contracts, regardless of the underlying asset, receive the same threshold classification. 4. Modernize the securities futures framework to revitalize the category and adapt to new product structures.
