Ignored Warning Led to ZetaChain’s $334K Crypto Exploit

Crypto　　Ignored Warning Led to ZetaChains $334K Crypto Exploit　　The vulnerability had reportedly been submitted earlier through the projects bug bounty program but was dismissed as intended behavior. In its post-mortem, ZetaChain said the attacker combined multiple design flaws, including unrestricted cross-chain instructions, overly broad contract execution permissions, and leftover unlimited token approvals from previous wallet interactions. The attacker also allegedly prepared in advance by funding wallets through Tornado Cash.　　ZetaChain Hack Raises New Questions　　ZetaChain recently suffered that resulted in losses of approximately $334,000. The attackers drained protocol-controlled funds across multiple blockchain networks including Ethereum, , Base, and BNB Smart Chain. Importantly, no user funds were impacted.　　The incident attracted a lot of attention because the vulnerability behind the attack had reportedly been identified earlier through ZetaChains bug bounty program, but was dismissed by the team as intended.　　After the exploit, ZetaChain released a explaining that the breach was not caused by a single catastrophic flaw, but rather by several smaller design weaknesses that became dangerous when combined. According to the report, the protocols gateway contract allowed anyone to submit arbitrary cross-chain instructions without sufficient restrictions. Once those instructions reached their destination chain, the gateway could execute commands on nearly any smart contract. Although a

GBP/USD: Iran shock risk for UK – BNY

Finance　　GBP/USD: Iran shock risk for UK – BNY　　BNYs Bob Savage relays National Institute of Economic and Social Research (NIESR) analysis that an escalation of the Iran conflict and prolonged Strait of Hormuz closure could severely hit the United Kingdom (UK) economy. Under an adverse scenario, Oil could reach $140, pushing inflation above 5% and forcing the Bank of England (BoE) to hike up to 150 bp. Even with a ceasefire, growth is downgraded and inflation stays elevated before slowly normalizing.　　Energy shock threatens UK outlook　　“The UK faces rising recession risks if the Iran conflict escalates, with the National Institute of Economic and Social Research warning that renewed hostilities and a prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz could trigger a severe economic shock.”　　“The UK economy is seen as particularly vulnerable given its reliance on energy imports.”　　“Under this adverse scenario, oil prices could surge to around $140/barrel, pushing UK inflation above 5% and forcing the Bank of England to raise interest rates by up to 150bp, reversing recent easing.”　　“Even under a benign scenario with a sustained ceasefire, growth forecasts have been downgraded, while inflation is expected to remain elevated before gradually returning to target.”　　“The fog of war is heavier today, and investors

DXY: Fed guidance and cuts repricing in focus – Deutsche Bank

Finance　　DXY: Fed guidance and cuts repricing in focus – Deutsche Bank　　Deutsche Bank economists expect the Federal Reserve (Fed) to keep rates on hold, with markets focused on forward guidance and any shift toward more two‑sided language. They note that the probability of a Fed cut by December has fallen sharply as consumer confidence surprises to the upside and Treasury yields edge higher, supporting the Dollar outlook.　　Fed decision and cuts repricing　　“Looking ahead to today, the main highlight will be the Federal Reserve‘s latest policy decision. They’re widely expected to keep rates on hold, so the focus will be on their forward guidance for what theyre thinking about future policy.”　　“Our US economists think the key question is whether they formally adopt two-sided language about the policy outlook in the statement, and whether Chair Powell indicates a more balanced risk assessment in the press conference.”　　“Their base case is that the Fed will wait until June for meaningful changes in guidance, but the risk is that communications skew hawkish.”　　“In fact, the probability of a cut by December was down to just 24% by the close, having been at 35% on Monday, so its seen as an increasingly unlikely prospect.”　　“This backdrop saw the 2yr Treasury

XRP Price Prediction for May 2026: Can Bulls Trigger a Rally Near $2?

Tech　　XRP Price Prediction for May 2026: Can Bulls Trigger a Rally Near $2？　　XRP price hovers near $1.40 in late April 2026 as traders weigh a daily cup-and-handle pattern targeting $1.70, while a sharp on-chain warning could derail the breakout. What is the latest XRP price prediction from May 2026？　　The token has moved sideways since February 2026, but compressing volume and a slowly turning weekly MACD suggest a bigger move is brewing as May begins.　　NVT Ratio Spike Flags Overheated XRP Network　　The Network Value to Transactions (NVT) ratio for XRP surged to 1,076 on April 29. That marks the highest reading on the chart since October 2025. Earlier spikes during the same window stayed mostly below the 700 mark.　　However, a high NVT reading indicates that the price has risen faster than actual on-chain activity. Historically, similar extremes have preceded short-term price corrections, since the rally was not supported by transactional volume.　　NVT Ratio for XRP / Source: Santiment　　Meanwhile, exchange inflows and whale transaction counts above $100,000 have remained stable since February 2026. No fresh spikes are visible in the Santiment data, mirroring the structural concerns flagged in previous BeInCrypto coverage.　　For the bearish signal to fade, the NVT ratio must drop below 300 while

Google-Pentagon AI deal boosts confidence in Gemini model quality

Tech　　Google-Pentagon AI deal boosts confidence in Gemini model quality　　The Google-Pentagon AI deal has moved odds on Google having the best AI model by end of May to 15% YES, up from 0% before the deal was announced.　　Traders in the May 31 market are reading the deployment of Google‘s Gemini on classified DoD networks as a direct endorsement of its model quality. With 32 days left until resolution, the question is whether a government contract translates into the kind of benchmark performance that determines this market’s outcome, where Google is measured against OpenAI and Anthropic.　　The news has no bearing on the military action against Iran by April 30 market, but it does signal a shift in government trust toward commercial AI providers, which could affect how future AI-related markets resolve. The deal may change how traders evaluate government adoption as a proxy for model quality. That said, trading volume in the AI market remains absent, suggesting traders want more data before committing.　　No recent trades have been recorded, and real USDC traded sits at zero. Sentiment moved the odds, but nobody is putting money behind it yet. If Googles models outperform on upcoming benchmarks, the odds could climb further. For now, this

BitGorilla Launches Cross-Chain Execution Platform to Close the Swap Quality Gap

Built on solver-based routing infrastructure, BitGorilla helps traders, builders, and autonomous agents access more consistent cross-chain execution.　　Every crypto trader has a theory about what makes a good trade: pick the right asset, time the entry, read the chart. But according to @_capfree, founder of BitGorilla, most traders are optimising the wrong variable entirely. Execution differences between identical swaps can vary by 0.5%–2% depending on routing depth, solver competition, and mempool exposure.　　That gap is the execution gap. And it sits beneath almost every swap interface in crypto today.　　The fee that isnt called a fee　　The problem starts with a misconception: free trading is not actually free. The cost has simply moved somewhere the user cannot easily see it.　　On cross-chain routes, every intermediate hop introduces its own spread, pool fee, and extraction surface. Most users never see the breakdown — only the estimate before the swap and the result after it settles.　　Fragmentation, sandwiching, and the auction nobody told you about　　The deeper problem is structural. Crypto liquidity is scattered across hundreds of chains, thousands of pools, dozens of aggregators, and a growing network of professional solvers bidding on order flow through private auctions.　　The route your swap takes through that landscape determines the outcome more
