🚀 Orderly Network's IBXtrade Project Faces Rug Pull Allegations
#OrderlyNetwork #IBXtrade #DeFi #rugpull #cryptocurrency #presale #SOL #blockchain #scam #refund
According to Odaily, DeFi analyst Anon Vee reported on X that several users have raised concerns about a potential rug pull involving the Orderly Network ecosystem project, IBXtrade. The project launched a presale three days ago with the aim of raising 2,000 SOL (approximately $3.2 million) and promised to refund unselected presale participants. However, the presale ended up raising over 160,000 SOL ($24 million), leading participants to expect a refund of $21.8 million. Instead, the IBXtrade team created a poll on a website they control, asking whether to increase the presale cap. The poll passed, and IBXtrade claimed to have refunded 65,000 SOL ($9.7 million) to presale participants. However, users reported that the team merely transferred these SOL to multiple addresses they created, and no refunds were received.#OrderlyNetwork #IBXtrade #DeFi #rugpull #cryptocurrency #presale #SOL #blockchain #scam #refund

According to PANews, the now-defunct New Zealand cryptocurrency exchange Cryptopia has initiated the return of digital assets worth approximately 400 million New Zealand dollars (around 225 million USD) to 10,000 verified account holders. This marks the first significant reimbursement since the platform suffered a 15 million USD hack in 2019.
The liquidation team at Cryptopia has been working diligently to reconstruct the compromised exchange and verify the transaction records of nearly 960,000 users. As a result, they have commenced the distribution of assets, including Bitcoin and Dogecoin, to affected users. Additionally, a planned supplementary allocation will allow for the redistribution of 'unclaimed assets' from accounts that have not registered claims, potentially enabling account holders to receive up to 100% reimbursement of their holdings. Further user verifications and distribution plans are scheduled to continue into the next year.#Cryptopia #Cryptocurrency #Refund #DigitalAssets #Bitcoin #Dogecoin #HackedExchange #UserVerification #AssetDistribution #UnclaimedAssets #BTC #DOGE
🚀 Foundry USA Pool Returns Bitcoin Transaction Fee After Error
#FoundryUSA #Bitcoin #MiningPool #TransactionFee #Refund #Blockchain #Cryptocurrency #BTC #HashRate
According to Odaily, Foundry USA Pool, the leading Bitcoin mining pool by total hash rate, has refunded a mistakenly paid Bitcoin transaction fee valued at approximately $777,000 (8.18 BTC). On December 19, Foundry USA Pool mined Bitcoin block 875475, which included a transaction with an attached fee 91,127 times higher than necessary. On Friday, Foundry announced on social media that it had contacted the sender who 'unintentionally' paid the fee. The mining pool confirmed that after 'careful consideration,' it decided to return the transaction fee to the sender. Otherwise, the fee would have been distributed among the mining clients contributing hash power to Foundry. Foundry emphasized that this decision was made thoughtfully and stated it would continue to handle such cases individually. This incident is not the first time a major Bitcoin mining pool has refunded an unusually high transaction fee due to an error. In November 2023, Antpool returned a transaction fee of 83.6 BTC, valued at $3.1 million at the time. Currently, Foundry USA Pool's hash rate is approximately 280 EH/s, nearly double that of its closest competitor, Antpool.#FoundryUSA #Bitcoin #MiningPool #TransactionFee #Refund #Blockchain #Cryptocurrency #BTC #HashRate

🚀 Blockchain Developers Face Unexpected Costs with Google Cloud's BigQuery
#Blockchain #GoogleCloud #BigQuery #Solana #Pricing #BillingIssues #CloudCosts #Refund #NFT #WhaleTransactions #DataAnalytics #AI #SOL
According to Cointelegraph, blockchain developers are expressing concerns over unexpected high charges from Google Cloud's BigQuery service. A notable incident involved a developer who received a $15,000 bill for conducting three queries. BigQuery, a serverless data warehouse by Google Cloud, is designed for analyzing large datasets using SQL and includes AI capabilities.
A pseudonymous developer, whose experience was shared by Mikko Ohtamaa, co-founder of the decentralized algorithmic trading protocol Trading Strategy, described BigQuery as a potential financial risk. The developer typically incurs a few hundred dollars in monthly charges but was shocked to receive an $18,000 bill. The charges stemmed from three queries on Solana, each costing over $5,000. After raising the issue with Google support, the charges were reduced to $4,000 per query.
Other members of the crypto community have echoed these concerns, criticizing what they perceive as predatory pricing practices that prevent setting monthly spending limits. Ermin Nurovic, co-founder of the Flat Money synthetic dollar protocol, highlighted the lack of hard stops, noting that a stuck Google Cloud function could lead to exorbitant costs.
The integration of Solana with Google Cloud’s BigQuery in October 2023 was intended to facilitate access to Solana blockchain data, such as whale transactions and NFT sales. However, the billing issues have raised concerns among developers. Another developer reported a $5,000 charge for a single query that inadvertently scanned multiple terabytes of data. Fortunately, their company’s local connection to Google allowed them to escalate the issue and secure a refund.
These incidents have led developers to exercise caution when querying blockchain data on BigQuery, emphasizing the need to check data partitions beforehand. The pricing model has also raised doubts about the feasibility of using BigQuery for AI algorithms, given the potential for unexpected costs.#Blockchain #GoogleCloud #BigQuery #Solana #Pricing #BillingIssues #CloudCosts #Refund #NFT #WhaleTransactions #DataAnalytics #AI #SOL
🚀 Singapore Court Rejects Do Kwon's Claim for Orchard Road Penthouse Refund
#DoKwon #TerraformLabs #TerraUSD #Luna #OrchardRoad #SculpturaArdmore #SingaporeHighCourt #Refund #Forfeiture #Lawsuit #Crypto #Cryptocurrency #Singapore #LUNA
According to PANews, the Singapore High Court has dismissed a claim by Do Kwon, co-founder of the defunct blockchain company Terraform Labs, for a refund of approximately 50% of the purchase price for a penthouse on Orchard Road.
Do Kwon had set his sights on a 38.8 million SGD penthouse at Sculptura Ardmore five months before the collapse of his cryptocurrencies TerraUSD and Luna in 2022. The property in question was a 7,600-square-foot, four-bedroom duplex on the 19th floor, one of only three penthouses in the development. Kwon paid around 19.4 million SGD in option fees and subsequent payments, nearly half of the purchase price, but the transaction was not completed. The penthouse was eventually resold for 34.5 million SGD.
Despite claims that the developer had forfeited Kwon's payments, Kwon argued that the forfeiture was invalid and filed a lawsuit through his wife in the Singapore High Court. However, his application was rejected on July 26.#DoKwon #TerraformLabs #TerraUSD #Luna #OrchardRoad #SculpturaArdmore #SingaporeHighCourt #Refund #Forfeiture #Lawsuit #Crypto #Cryptocurrency #Singapore #LUNA

Paradex has released an investigation report on the incident that occurred on January 19. According to Foresight News, during a database upgrade and maintenance, a race condition during service restart led to data corruption, which was published to the Paradex Chain.

🚀 Paradex to Refund $650,000 After Maintenance Glitch Causes Liquidation
#Paradex #refund #maintenanceglitch #liquidation #databaseupgrade #racecondition #corruptdata #cloud #ParadexChain #markets #liquidations #rollback #blockchain #takeprofit #stoploss
Paradex has announced plans to refund $650,000 to 200 users following a maintenance glitch that led to liquidation events. According to PANews, the issue arose during a scheduled 30-minute database upgrade on January 19, when unexpected problems occurred. A race condition during critical data operations caused corrupted data to be saved to the cloud and published on the Paradex Chain. This resulted in some market funding indices being reset to zero, causing abnormal gains and losses and triggering liquidations across multiple markets.
In response, Paradex temporarily suspended platform access, canceled all open orders except for take-profit and stop-loss orders, and rolled back the blockchain to a snapshot taken before the maintenance window began. Previously, Paradex had been temporarily unavailable due to the rollback of the chain state during database maintenance.#Paradex #refund #maintenanceglitch #liquidation #databaseupgrade #racecondition #corruptdata #cloud #ParadexChain #markets #liquidations #rollback #blockchain #takeprofit #stoploss

On February 9, MetaDAO, a Solana ecosystem issuance platform, experienced its first ICO failure with the project Hurupay. According to BlockBeats, the project was launched on February 3, 2026, with a minimum fundraising goal of $3 million. However, it only managed to raise approximately $2,003,593, about 67% of the target.
