Software supply-chain security firm Socket found 40 Firefox add-on identities with confirmed malicious behavior, including draining crypto, including nine that had previously distributed sports-score tools under the same IDs.Anyone whose recovery phrase, private key, or wallet keyring reached one of the malicious versions must treat that wallet as compromised because uninstalling the add-on cannot revoke an exposed secret.The Aug. 19 report linked 77 identities to what Socket provisionally calls the “Offside Wallet Theft Factory,” with 40 containing confirmed malicious behavior. The other 37 were deceptive or suspicious sports-score shells whose analyzed versions contained no confirmed theft payload.The campaign operated from…

Phantom will remove Sui from its wallet interface on Sept. 24, one month after announcing that it and Sui had decided to end the integration. After the transition, Phantom will no longer display Sui balances, support Sui sends or swaps, or connect to decentralized applications.The assets will remain on the Sui blockchain, tied to the credentials that authorize the account. Phantom’s transition guide says users can restore access through a compatible wallet even after the cutoff. Sept. 24 ends access through Phantom; it does not end ownership or later access to the funds.That separation turns a product sunset into a…

Cardano’s vote to seat four elected Constitutional Committee members is now in its final week, and both voter groups remain far from the required marks.

The warrants do not dilute existing holders unless they are exercised. Under the restructuring agreement, full discharge also remains conditional on delivery of the cash component and issuance of the warrants. The filing confirms the warrant issuance and related waivers, but does not separately document every…
Ethereum is considering a change that would let compounding validators set how much ETH should remain on a validator before excess rewards enter the network’s automatic withdrawal sweep.An Aug. 20 edit to draft EIP-8148 lowered the proposal’s minimum custom threshold from 33 ETH to 32 ETH and added a way to set the initial threshold when a new validator is created. If activated, the proposal would let 0x02 validators select a level between 32 ETH and the current 2,048 ETH default. The change would affect reward-sweep timing while Ethereum’s existing exit rules continue to govern principal withdrawals.Ethereum’s 32 ETH change…
