Bunni DEX Exploited for $2.3M After Liquidity Rebalancing Flaw

Bunni DEX Exploited for $2.3M After Liquidity Rebalancing Flaw

The post Bunni DEX Exploited for $2.3M After Liquidity Rebalancing Flaw appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Decentralized exchange Bunni fell victim to an exploit, losing about $2.4 million in stablecoins after attackers manipulated the platform’s liquidity calculations, according to onchain data by multiple Web3 security firms. “The Bunni app has been affected by a security exploit,” its team confirmed on X on Tuesday. “As a precaution, we have paused all smart contract functions on all networks. Our team is actively investigating and will provide updates soon,” the team added. The attack targeted Bunni’s Ethereum-based smart contracts. Funds were drained to an address holding $1.33 million in USDC (USDC) and $1.04 million in USDt (USDT). Bunni core contributor @Psaul26ix asked users to withdraw funds from the platform as soon as possible. “If you have money on Bunni, remove it ASAP,” they wrote on X. Bunni channels liquidity through Euler Finance, a decentralized lending platform that enables users to borrow, lend and design structured crypto products. In light of the exploit, Euler co-founder and CEO Michael Bentley clarified that the protocol itself remains unaffected by the exploit. Experts ask Bunni users to remove funds. Source: Michael Bentley Cointelegraph reached out to Bunni and Euler for comment, but had not received a response by publication. Related: Indian court sentences 14 to life in Bitcoin extortion case How Bunni fell victim to the hack While a technical post-mortem remains incomplete, early analysis from developers and researchers points to a flaw in how Bunni handles liquidity rebalancing. Bunni, built on top of Uniswap v4, uses a custom mechanism called Liquidity Distribution Function (LDF) instead of Uniswap’s default logic. This mechanism allows Bunni to optimize liquidity allocation across price ranges, aiming to increase returns for liquidity providers. According to Victor Tran, co-founder of KyberNetwork, the attacker was able to manipulate the LDF curve by executing trades of specific sizes that triggered faulty…

Why Analysts Rank Ozak AI, Cardano, and TRX as the Best Low-Cap Bets of 2025

Why Analysts Rank Ozak AI, Cardano, and TRX as the Best Low-Cap Bets of 2025

The post Why Analysts Rank Ozak AI, Cardano, and TRX as the Best Low-Cap Bets of 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto investors seeking high-upside opportunities are increasingly turning to low-cap coins with strong growth potential. Analysts have highlighted Ozak AI, Cardano (ADA), and TRX as standout bets for 2025, citing a combination of innovation, adoption, and presale or market momentum. These projects offer unique use cases, active ecosystems, and potential for significant returns, making them attractive options for early investment ahead of the next bull cycle. Ozak AI – AI-Powered High-Upside Presale Ozak AI, currently in its 5th OZ presale stage at $0.01, has already raised over $2.5 million and sold more than 830 million tokens. The project combines blockchain technology with AI-powered prediction agents, enabling faster and smarter trading decisions, portfolio optimization, and on-chain intelligence. Analysts are optimistic that early presale investors could see up to 100x returns, making Ozak AI one of the most talked-about presale projects of 2025. Security and credibility are reinforced through CertiK and inner audits, while listings on CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko enhance market visibility. Strategic partnerships with Dex3, HIVE, and SINT similarly make bigger Ozak AI’s surroundings, providing real-world global application and adoption capacity. Its tokenomics encompass a one-month cliff accompanied by six-month linear vesting, ensuring long-term price retention and investor confidence. Cardano—A Low-Cap Leader with Strong Fundamentals Cardano (ADA), presently trading at $0.813, remains one of the most respected low-cap tasks due to its peer-reviewed blockchain development and cognizance of scalability, sustainability, and interoperability.  Analysts factor in Cardano’s developing ecosystem of smart contracts, DeFi applications, and NFT projects as key drivers of long-term increase. Its sluggish-but-regular adoption technique may not promise immediately explosive returns; however, ADA’s stability and institutional interest make it a strong low-cap funding for 2025. TRX—High-Speed Blockchain with Growing Adoption TRX (Tron), trading at $0.336, is another low-cap coin that analysts view favorably for 2025. The Tron network is known…

Stock market news for Sep 2, 2025

The post Stock market news for Sep 2, 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. US stock markets closed lower on Friday, following some profit-taking on technology bigwigs. Market participants were also weighing in sticky inflation and the probability of an interest rate cut by the Fed in September. All three major stock indexes ended in negative territory.  For the week as a whole, these indexes also finished in the red. However, for August, the three major stock indexes closed in positive territory. Wall Street remained closed on Monday due to Labor Day. How did the benchmarks perform? The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) fell 0.2% to close at 45,544.88. Notably, 16 components of the 30-stock index ended in negative territory and 14 finished in positive territory. At the intraday low, the blue-chip index was down nearly 260 points. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite finished at 21,455.55, sliding 1.2% or 249.61 points due to the weak performance of technology stocks.

Strategy announces BTC purchase unusually late this week

Strategy announces BTC purchase unusually late this week

The post Strategy announces BTC purchase unusually late this week appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Strategy announced its routine weekly purchase a day later on Tuesday, leaving the market guessing for 24 hours. However, Strategy is back to making bigger tranches of BTC purchases to its reserves after several smaller buys.  Strategy kept stacking despite the unusually late announcement of the last BTC purchase. The company acquired 4,048 BTC for the period of August 26 to September 1. The relatively larger amount of BTC follows a few weeks where the firm showed weakness in its fundraising and shifted its rules on using new MSTR common stock issues to acquire BTC and cover operational costs.  Strategy has acquired 4,048 BTC for ~$449.3 million at ~$110,981 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 25.7% YTD 2025. As of 9/1/2025, we hodl 636,505 $BTC acquired for ~$46.95 billion at ~$73,765 per bitcoin. $MSTR $STRC $STRK $STRF $STRDhttps://t.co/kR8Fw9AQkl — Strategy (@Strategy) September 2, 2025 The announcement followed the usual social media message from the company’s executive chairman Michael Saylor on Tuesday. This week’s delay followed Strategy’s waiting period for a decision on being included in the S&P 500 index. Strategy showed readiness to fulfill all requirements for a S&P 500 company, though the new round of announcements will be on September 5.  Strategy’s financing hinged on STRK, STRD, and MSTR To fulfill its latest BTC purchase, Strategy issued MSTR common stock, as well as STRK and STRD preferred shares. This time, STRC and STRF facilities skipped a week.  $425.3M came from MSTR issuance, as the company’s portfolio and BTC price fulfilled the conditions for adding more common stock. Only $20M came from STRK and STRD, and without the common stock issue, Strategy would have another week with a minimal BTC purchase.  The big MSTR issuance follows the decision to still sell common stock even at a lower ratio…

Is SKY’s 10% surge a bull trap in disguise? Marking major levels

Is SKY’s 10% surge a bull trap in disguise? Marking major levels

The post Is SKY’s 10% surge a bull trap in disguise? Marking major levels appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Takeaways SKY’s rally in the past day comes as Open Interest hits a new all-time high. Spot and technical indicators point to a potential decline ahead as liquidity weakens. In the past day, Sky [SKY] led market gains, recording a 10% surge within the period. Analysis shows that the drive behind SKY likely came from the derivatives market. However, opposing liquidity pressures could force the asset’s price lower. SKY hits record high The rally in the past day coincided with the token reaching a record high in the derivatives segment. In the past 24 hours, the governance token saw Open Interest rise to $2.33 million, a 27% growth from the previous day. This heightened flow of liquidity was accompanied by a surge in derivatives trading volume. At press time, CoinGlass data showed the long-to-short ratio rising significantly, with a reading of 1.14. Typically, a reading above 1 for the Taker Buy-Sell Ratio implies that buying volume outweighed selling volume in the market during this period. AMBCrypto, however, found that while the derivatives market appears to be tightening, liquidity in other fronts is being withdrawn. Liquidity steps back from the market Market analysis shows a shift in liquidity away from SKY over the past day. For instance, spot market data revealed five consecutive days of outflows, totaling $1.67 million in sales. That’s not all. In fact, technical indicators are flashing warning signs of a potential drop in the coming days. The Relative Strength Index (RSI), for example, has crossed into the overbought region with a reading above 70. The Money Flow Index (MFI), on the other hand, shows it is extending toward the overbought region above 80 but has not reached it yet. The setup suggests that while the RSI has flagged a potential drop in price, the MFI crossing…

September seasonality in play? – ING

September seasonality in play? – ING

The post September seasonality in play? – ING appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The dollar is drifting higher in quiet conditions. Weekend news about US tariffs being ruled illegal has not had much impact so far. US Treasury yields have been marked a couple of basis points higher, and US equity futures are slightly lower, ING’s FX analyst Chris Turner notes. 97.50 DXY support appears to be holding “The focus this week is on US labour market data, with the next important input being tomorrow’s JOLTS job opening data. First up, though, we get an update on the manufacturing sector today. Expectations are for a modest rise in ISM business confidence to 49.0, but still weak. There will be some latent interest in both the prices paid and the employment component, but we doubt this data will be a major determinant of dollar direction this week.” “The second factor could be seasonal dollar strength. US corporates have a big tax date on 15 September, where dollar payments occasionally cause ripples in US money markets. This was the case in 2019. We note as well that the DXY dollar index has rallied in seven of the last 10 Septembers. In short, it may not be one-way traffic to a lower dollar this September despite the prospect of softer employment figures and the looming Fed rate cut.” “97.50 DXY support appears to be holding, and more range trading may be the order of the day.” Source: https://www.fxstreet.com/news/usd-september-seasonality-in-play-ing-202509020935

Is XRP A Meme Coin? Analyst Reveals How Whales Are Playing The Game

Is XRP A Meme Coin? Analyst Reveals How Whales Are Playing The Game

XRP is trading below $3 after repeated rejections above $2.8 in the past 24 hours. A new chart analysis from crypto MadWhale shows the pressure building inside a descending channel that might push the XRP price down to $2.4. However, what stands out in his analysis is not just the price target; it’s the bigger question of whether XRP is starting to behave like a meme coin that is being controlled by crowd psychology and whale activity. XRP’s Psychological Cycle That Resembles Meme Coins In his analysis, which was posted on the TradingView platform, crypto analyst MadWhale outlined the repeating psychological cycle that often dominates meme coin markets and suggested that XRP may not be immune from it.  Related Reading: Analyst Says XRP Price Is Yet To Hit Its First Bearish Target – Details The cycle begins with excitement, where social media buzz generates hype, followed by greed as traders rush in without much thought. This stage then shifts into social proof, when influencers amplify the golden opportunity narrative to pull in new investors at peak prices. It is at this very moment that whales begin quietly offloading their positions and cause the meme coin to enter a sharp correction. The result is panic selling by small traders, culminating in a capitulation where whales buy back cheap, restarting the cycle all over again.  According to MadWhale, this trend is not limited to meme coins alone, but XRP’s current trading behavior is showing signs of fitting the same mold. MadWhale described whales as “masters of illusion,” capable of buying large chunks to pump the price, spread optimism, and then sell into the frenzy.  This strategy is starting to create a cycle of retail fear and greed in XRP, where smaller traders are often left holding losses while whales re-enter the market at bargain prices. He noted that technical tools like Volume Profile, RSI, and the Fear and Greed Index can expose these plays. For instance, heavy volume accumulation at specific levels combined with overbought RSI readings and extreme greed sentiment show the perfect moment when whales start selling.  Descending Channel Points To $2.40 Target According to MadWhale’s chart, XRP is trading within a well-defined descending channel that has shaped its price action since July 19. The repeated rejections around the $3 price zone have caused lower highs that have made it increasingly difficult for bulls to mount a sustained breakout. The most recent rejection was at $3, and the ensuing selling pressure has caused XRP to create successive 12-hour bearish candlesticks. Related Reading: XRP Price Gets $20 Target: The 2 Scenarios That Could Play Out From Here The analyst’s projection on the chart shows a possible 14% decline to another major support resting around $2.40. This zone has been identified as the main daily support area, and reaching it would mark the latest stage of XRP’s corrective move inside the channel. On the other hand, any rebound attempts would first need to clear the $3 resistance. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.80, up by 1.4% in the past 24 hours.

Tesla lands on the chopping block as India mulls hefty tax on luxury EVs

Tesla lands on the chopping block as India mulls hefty tax on luxury EVs

A tax panel in India has called for a sharp increase in consumer levies on high end electric vehicles that may have a bearing on sales for automakers like Tesla, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and BYD, according to a government document. The steep levies target vehicles priced above $46,000, according to the document, which comes as the government is pushing for Indians to buy domestic products as the US imposed high tariffs strain trade relations between the two countries. The panel’s proposals align with India’s PM The directive comes as Prime Minister Narendra Modi is looking at reforming the country’s tax system. Currently, India taxes all electric cars at 5%. Now, the Indian government has recommended hefty cuts in goods and services tax (GST) that could make everything from shampoos to electronics cheaper. A key panel that has been tasked with coming up with rate suggestions to the country’s GST Council is in support of sweeping cuts to many items in line with the Prime Minister’s overhaul. The document that details the recommendations however shows that the panel has called for raising taxes on electric vehicles. According to the document, the panel has proposed raising GST rate to 18% from the current 5% on electric vehicles that are priced at between 2 million and 4 million rupees which is equivalent to $23,000 to $46,000. For cars that are above $46,000, the panel has also proposed raising the tax to 28% arguing that these vehicles are for the “upper segment” of the society and largely imported and not manufactured locally. According to a government source familiar with discussions and cited by Reuters, the government has decided to do away with the 28% tax rate, leaving the GST Council with two options. The first is to increase the tax on electric vehicles to 18% while the second option is to put them in a newly planned 40% category that was created for certain high-end goods. Foreign automakers will feel the pinch in India The GST Council is expected to review the proposal at a meeting scheduled for September 3 to 4. The council is led by the federal finance minister and has members from all Indian states. Meanwhile, in response to the Reuters article, the Nifty Auto index went down as much as 0.05% as local automakers Mahindra and Mahindra fell 3%. Tata Motors dropped 1.2%. While the EV market in India is still small, accounting for 5% of total cars sold in April to July this year, its growth has been rapid. EV sales in the country surged 93% to 15,500 units during that same period. “The uptake of electric vehicles is increasing, and while the low rate of 5% is to incentivise faster adoption of electric vehicles, it is also important to signal that higher-priced EVs can be taxed at higher rates,” said the document, detailing the tax panel’s recommendations. With the latest proposal in the pipeline, domestic electric vehicle makers like Mahindra and Tata Motors may be affected, although their offerings above the 2-million-rupee range are limited. However, foreign electric vehicle makers that have luxury offerings will be hit the hardest. For instance, Tesla recently launched its Model Y in India with a base price of $65,000, while Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and BYD also offer high end electric vehicles. For Tesla, which entered the Indian market in July, it has already received fewer orders than it anticipated. The firm has recorded orders just above 600 since its launch in India. The company plans to deliver 300-500 units from its Shanghai plant in 2025, with the first batch expected this month, targeting cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, and Gurugram. In July, Tata Motors led Indian EV market commanding about 40% market share while Mahindra followed at 18%. BYD holds 3% while BMW and Mercedes account for a combined 2%. Don’t just read crypto news.
