Wasabi Protocol has been hit by a multi-chain exploit worth more than $5 million, according to blockchain security firms. The attack affected Ethereum, Base, Berachain, and Blast.Wasabi Protocol was exploited for over $5 million across Ethereum, Base, Berachain, and Blast.Security firms said a compromised admin key allowed attackers to upgrade contracts and drain funds.Wasabi told users not to interact with its contracts while the team investigates the exploit.　　PeckShield said the exploit targeted Wasabi Protocol across several networks. The affected chains included Ethereum, Base, Berachain, and Blast.　　Security firms said the attack drained more than $5 million from the DeFi derivatives platform. The incident adds to a sharp rise in DeFi exploits reported this month.　　Compromised admin key linked to attack　　Blockaid and CertiK said the attacker used a compromised admin key. The key allowed privileged access through the Wasabi deployer wallet.　　The attacker then upgraded core contracts and drained funds. BlockSec said early traces show Tornado Cash-funded accounts received admin-linked roles.　　Blockaid warned, “All Wasabi/Spicy LP-share tokens minted by these vaults should be treated as COMPROMISED.”　　Cyvers said the attacker extracted several assets, including WETH, PEPE, MOG, USDC, ZYN, REKT, cbBTC, AERO, and VIRTUAL.　　The security firm said the stolen funds were consolidated into ETH.

Australia payments draft eyes stablecoin interoperability

Australias future payment rails may need to support stablecoins and tokenized fiat money. A new draft vision says account-to-account systems could adapt as tokenized money moves closer to mainstream use.Australias draft payments vision identifies stablecoins as a future force in A2A payment systems.The draft says payment rails may need to connect bank money with tokenized fiat.Australia is also testing tokenized settlement through Project Acacia and wider digital asset rules.　　The draft was co-developed by the Account-to-Account Payments Roundtable. Members include AusPayNet, Australian Payments Plus, the Reserve Bank of Australia, and the Commonwealth Treasury.　　The document lists digital assets among the outside forces that could shape Australias future payment systems. It says tokenized money could change how payments are settled and automated.　　Stablecoins move into payments planning　　The draft said, “Tokenised forms of money, such as stablecoins and tokenised liabilities, are moving from experimentation to adoption.”　　It added that programmable, ledger-based value could support new settlement models. These systems may also allow payments to run with wider availability and more automation.　　Moreover, the document said account-to-account systems “may need to support secure interoperability between account-based money and tokenised representations of fiat currency.”　　This would allow funds to move between bank-based money and tokenized versions of fiat currency.

Olympus Director Daniel Bara Explains Why DeFi Needs Reserve-Backed Money Design

Introduction　　In the DeFi space, many protocols are built to grow fast, Olympus was built to last. In the modern world, where token emissions and inflationary rewards have long been the default playbook, the Olympus Association is making a case for something fundamentally different. The Olympus Association supports a decentralized monetary system backed by real reserves, governed by code, and designed to hold up precisely when everything else is falling apart.　　In an exclusive interview session of BlockchainReporter, we sat with Daniel Bara, the Director of Olympus, to dig into the mechanics behind Olympus‘s Yield Repurchase Facility and its proactive treasury design. He explained why the protocol’s strongest moments have come not during bull markets, but during the depths of a crash.　　Interview SectionWhat made Olympus quit the widely used inflationary token framework in DeFi？　　The inflationary model was solving the wrong problem. Most of DeFi treated token emissions as a growth tool, paying users in new supply to bootstrap usage and liquidity. But emissions paid in new supply are really a cost borne by existing holders, a forward dilution paid out as a reward. The model worked until it didnt, because the moment emissions slow or the market turns, the capital that arrived

Wasabi Protocol $5 Million Exploit Accelerates AI-Driven DeFi Hacker Theory

Wasabi Protocol suffered an admin-key compromise that drained over $5 million from its perpetuals vaults and LongPool across Ethereum, Base, Berachain, and Blast, on-chain security firms Blockaid and PeckShield reported.　　The attacker gained ADMIN_ROLE through the protocols deployer wallet, then upgraded the vaults to a malicious implementation that siphoned user balances. About $4.55 million had been extracted at last count, and the investigation remains active.　　Single-Key Failure Behind the Breach　　Blockaid traced the root cause to wasabideployer.eth, the only address holding ADMIN_ROLE in Wasabis PerpManager AccessManager.　　The attacker called grantRole on the deployer EOA with zero delay, instantly turning their orchestrator contract into an admin.　　“Were aware of an issue and are actively investigating. As a precaution, please do not interact with Wasabi contracts until further notice,” Wasabi Protocol urged users.　　From there, the attacker UUPS-upgraded perpetual vaults and the LongPool to a malicious implementation that drained balances.　　The deployer key remains live. Wasabi and Spicy LP-share tokens from affected vaults are flagged as compromised, with redemption value approaching zero.　　Blockaid noted the same attacker, orchestrator, and strategy bytecode tie this incident to earlier activity targeting Wasabi.　　The pattern echoes prior admin-key incidents and reflects single-EOA admin setups without timelocks or multisigs. PeckShield put the total losses past the
