Polkadot
No enriched coverage for $DOT-USD in the last 7 days.
CertiK reported that a hacker exploited Hyperbridge, a Polkadot cross-chain bridge, minting 1 billion bridged DOT tokens on Ethereum. The attacker seized admin control via a forged message and cashed out about $237,000, capped at 108.2 ETH by pool liquidity. Hyperbridge paused operations and said only bridged DOT on Ethereum was affected.
Bitcoin rose about 3% to trade above $66K, with market cap up to $2.25T (+2.7% in 24 hours). CryptoQuant said large BTC whales have been accumulating while medium wallets sold. Analysts reported stablecoin withdrawals from Binance and Bybit of $2.3B over a month. FTX said $900M payouts are due July 31. Cardano activated the Van Rossem hard fork.
Bridged DOT token contract compromise raises counterparty and bridge-risk concerns for DOT holders using Hyperbridge, even if native DOT is unaffected.
