Stablecoins were built on the premise that removing intermediaries between sender and recipient would erode the relevance of legacy payment networks, but the fastest-growing consumer stablecoin product depends entirely on one.Data reported by The Kobeissi Letter shows crypto-card spending reached roughly $600 million per month, with $7.2 billion in cumulative on-chain card volume across 24 million transactions and 1.36 million wallets.Approximately 90% of those transactions were processed through Visa, with USDT accounting for 62.5% of settled volume. Jupiter Global, whose USDC-backed card runs on Visa rails, grew 660% month-over-month in the same dataset.An infographic showing Visa processes approximately 90% of…
Automated yield protocols built DeFi’s most persuasive retail pitch that depositing into a vault was all a user needed to do, with the protocol handling everything else.For users wanting exposure to Curve’s boosted yields without manually managing CRV locks, vote power, wrappers, gauges, and incentives, Stake DAO offered a product that packaged the full stack behind a simple interface and, in doing so, also packaged what could break.According to Blockaid, an attacker minted over 5.4 trillion vsdCRV on Arbitrum through a suspected compromise of a deployer key and began swapping tokens for ETH.The attacker altered LayerZero-related peer configuration to forge…
Bitcoin (BTC) is down to around $73K amid ETF outflows and geopolitical tension. Over $2B in ETF outflows and $900M liquidations added selling pressure. The key support sits at $72,650 with RSI near oversold levels at 34.82.

The decline has extended a multi-week decline that has already erased more than 8% over the…
Manuel Aráoz warned AI-powered coding agents are making DeFi increasingly vulnerable to exploits and difficult to secure. Rising hack losses and faster AI-driven vulnerability discovery are intensifying concerns around smart contract security. OpenZeppelin rejected Aráoz’s assessment, arguing AI-assisted monitoring remains the best defence against emerging threats. Manuel Aráoz, OpenZeppelin’s co-founder and former chief technology officer, has warned that developments in artificial intelligence (AI) are undermining the security foundations of decentralised finance (DeFi), claiming that “all” of DeFi is now unsafe. Aráoz said AI coding agents have become exceptionally effective at identifying weaknesses in publicly available smart contract code, creating what…
OpenAI Foundation is allocating AU$350 million toward programs addressing labour disruption linked to AI adoption.

The funding will support grants, partnerships and operational programs run directly by the organisation. The foundation said the spending will…
Bitcoin slipped below $75,000 for the second time in May, touching an intraday low near $74,200 as the market’s recovery from spring lows lost momentum again.The first break came on May 23, when spot ETF outflows and forced liquidations pulled BTC to below $75,000. Then, amid a sell-off in Asian markets, Bitcoin has dipped to $73,600 as of press time, with a low of $72,600.Glassnode’s May 27 report frames both moves as symptoms of Bitcoin stabilizing above its deeper-cycle support, but the market’s $75,000-$78,000 band has become a bottleneck, with spot demand, ETF flows, and options positioning all retreating too…

David Hoffman, co-founder of Bankless, confirmed he sold his entire remaining Ether position the prior Thursday and disclosed the move publicly on May 27. Hoffman characterised Ethereum as “a giver, not a taker,” arguing layer-2 networks and roughly US$163 billion in stablecoins on Ethereum now absorb most of the value the base token once expected to capture. ETH currently trades near US$2,000, about 60% below its August peak near US$5,000. David Hoffman, co-founder of crypto media company Bankless and one of Ethereum’s most visible long-term advocates, disclosed on May 27 that he had sold his entire remaining Ether position the…
Hut 8 is pushing even further into AI infrastructure than most other Bitcoin miners are. Its latest disclosures show a company using power access, data center leases, project debt, and BTC-backed liquidity to build the financing stack for that move.The company’s latest disclosures put numbers around that transition. Hut 8 reported $16.8 billion in triple-net, take-or-pay contracted lease revenue across two hyperscale AI campuses, then separately refinanced a $200 million Bitcoin-backed credit facility with FalconX.The new facility cut the fixed rate to 7.0% from 9.0% and unencumbered roughly 3,300 BTC from the prior collateral package.
