According to Cointelegraph, Radiant Capital has suspended its lending markets following a significant cybersecurity breach that resulted in losses exceeding $50 million on the BNB Chain and Arbitrum. The breach was confirmed by Radiant and two cybersecurity firms, De.Fi Antivirus and Ancilia Inc.
De.Fi Antivirus reported that the exploit targeted Radiant Capital contracts on the BSC and ARB chains using the 'transferFrom' function, which allowed the attacker to drain users' funds, including USDC, WBNB, and ETH. The firm estimated the losses at approximately $58 million, while Ancilia Inc. provided a similar estimate of around $50 million.
Radiant acknowledged the issue in a post on the X platform, stating that they are collaborating with SEAL911, Hypernative, ZeroShadow, and Chainalysis to address the situation. The lending markets on Base and Mainnet have been paused until further notice.
The breach involved the compromise of a multisignature wallet, or 'multisig,' which is used to control Radiant. The attacker reportedly gained control of several signers' private keys, allowing them to seize control of multiple smart contracts. Pop Punk, the pseudonymous co-founder of token launch platform g8keep, described the incident as akin to a school bully stealing lunch money, emphasizing the severity of the breach and advising users to revoke all approvals.
Cybersecurity company Hacken reported that access control mechanism exploits accounted for $316 million, or nearly 70% of the total funds stolen in crypto hacks during the third quarter of 2024. Multisigs, while a dominant means of securing Web3 protocols, can create centralized fail-points that are vulnerable to attackers.
Sreeram Kannan, founder of restaking protocol EigenLayer, highlighted the limitations of multisigs in an interview with Cointelegraph, stating that many contracts rely on multisigs, which are far from decentralized. He emphasized the need for more robust security measures to provide the trust that blockchain technology is supposed to offer.#RadiantCapital #Cybersecurity #BNBChain #Arbitrum #CryptoBreach #USDC #WBNB #ETH #SmartContracts #Multisig #BlockchainSecurity #DeFi #Hack #CryptoHacks #UserSafety #TrustInTech #ARB

🚀 Worldcoin Transfers 60 Million WLD Tokens to Multisig Address
#Worldcoin #WLDtokens #cryptocurrency #multisig #marketmakers #liquidity #digitalassets #security #trading #marketdynamics
According to PANews, a significant transfer of 60 million WLD tokens, valued at approximately $135.9 million, has been detected by iChainfo. These tokens have been moved to a Worldcoin multisignature address. It is anticipated that the WLD tokens will soon be distributed to several market makers.
This transfer marks a notable movement within the cryptocurrency market, highlighting Worldcoin's strategic allocation of its digital assets. The involvement of market makers suggests an intention to enhance liquidity and facilitate trading activities for WLD tokens. Such actions are often aimed at stabilizing the token's market presence and ensuring efficient trading operations.
The transfer of a substantial volume of tokens to a multisignature address underscores the importance of security and control in managing digital assets. Multisignature addresses require multiple approvals for transactions, providing an added layer of security against unauthorized access. This approach is commonly adopted by organizations to safeguard their holdings and maintain operational integrity.
As the cryptocurrency market continues to evolve, the movement of large volumes of tokens can have significant implications for market dynamics. The anticipated distribution of WLD tokens to market makers is likely to influence trading patterns and potentially impact the token's value. Market participants will be closely monitoring these developments to assess their effects on the broader cryptocurrency landscape.#Worldcoin #WLDtokens #cryptocurrency #multisig #marketmakers #liquidity #digitalassets #security #trading #marketdynamics

🚀 🔥 Bybit Hack: SlowMist Unveils Technical Details Behind Bybit’s $1.4 Billion Hack 🔥
#Bybit #hack #SlowMist #Ethereum #blockchainsecurity #smartcontracts #multisig #cryptocurrency #coldwallet #cybersecurity #cryptoexchange #decentralizedfinance #ERC20 #digitalassets #securitymeasures #ETH
Blockchain security firm SlowMist has disclosed a detailed breakdown of the attack that led to Bybit’s massive Ethereum (ETH) breach, revealing how the hackers manipulated smart contract logic to gain control over the exchange’s cold wallet.According to SlowMist’s investigation, the exploit began with the deployment of a malicious implementation contract on February 19, 2025, at 7:15:23 UTC (0xbDd077f651EBe7f7b3cE16fe5F2b025BE2969516). The attacker strategically leveraged multisig ownership, using three owner signatures to replace the legitimate Safe implementation contract with the malicious one at 14:13:35 UTC on February 21, 2025 (0x46deef0f52e3a983b67abf4714448a41dd7ffd6d32d32da69d62081c68ad7882).The core of the attack relied on embedding malicious upgrade logic into STORAGE via DELEGATECALL[0x0] (0x96221423681A6d52E184D440a8eFCEbB105C7242). This backdoor allowed the hacker to execute sweepETH and sweepERC20 functions, effectively draining the targeted wallet’s ETH and ERC-20 token holdings.Bybit has assured users that its other cold wallets remain unaffected and that withdrawals are operating normally. However, industry leaders—including Binance executives Yi He and former CEO CZ—have stepped in, offering support in tracking the stolen funds and strengthening security measures.The incident underscores the persistent vulnerabilities in crypto exchange security and the growing sophistication of attacks targeting digital asset custodians.#Bybit #hack #SlowMist #Ethereum #blockchainsecurity #smartcontracts #multisig #cryptocurrency #coldwallet #cybersecurity #cryptoexchange #decentralizedfinance #ERC20 #digitalassets #securitymeasures #ETH

Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) are collectively managing over $25 billion in treasury assets. According to NS3.AI, despite this significant asset management, less than 1% of token holders control approximately 90% of the voting power within these organizations. Voter participation in DAOs generally ranges from 5% to 15%, highlighting a disparity between asset control and active involvement. Additionally, many DAOs continue to utilize 3-of-5 multisignature wallets for executing treasury operations, indicating a reliance on traditional security measures.#DAOs #DeFi #Blockchain #CryptoAssets #Governance #VotingPower #TreasuryManagement #TokenHolders #Multisig #Decentralization

Drift has revealed that its recent $270 million exploit was the result of a six-month campaign involving fake identities, in-person meetings, and cultivated trust, rather than a flaw in smart contracts. According to NS3.AI, security leaders from ENS Labs, SVRN, Jupiter, dYdX Labs, and Jito Labs have emphasized the need for DeFi teams to consider contributors, multisigs, and operational security as critical attack surfaces. This incident highlights the importance of robust security measures in the decentralized finance sector to prevent similar breaches.#DeFi #Security #Blockchain #Crypto #Exploits #OperationalSecurity #DecentralizedFinance #Multisig #Cybersecurity #DYDX #JTO #JUP
🚀 Monad Foundation Offers Subsidies for Secure Signing Devices
#MonadFoundation #Subsidy #SecureSigning #Cryptocurrency #Blockchain #Multisig #VaultManagement #Cybersecurity #KYC #ProtocolSecurity
Monad Foundation has announced plans to subsidize the cost of dedicated signing laptops for teams whose protocols achieve or exceed a total value locked (TVL) of $2.5 million. According to Foresight News, these laptops are intended for use in multi-signature operations, vault management, and other critical tasks. Eligible teams can apply to the Monad Foundation for this subsidy, which may require additional security training and standard KYC procedures. Monad emphasizes that these signing devices must not be used for everyday activities such as web browsing, coding, or meetings.
Previously, Monad co-founder Keone Hon advised protocol teams to immediately adopt dedicated signing computers for multi-signature operations instead of using regular computers. He highlighted the vulnerability of everyday computers to hacking, which could compromise the signing process even when connected to a hardware wallet, posing significant security risks. The Monad Foundation may introduce incentives to encourage teams to adopt this secure method in the future.#MonadFoundation #Subsidy #SecureSigning #Cryptocurrency #Blockchain #Multisig #VaultManagement #Cybersecurity #KYC #ProtocolSecurity
