DeFi was supposed to be the revolution. A financial system with none of Wall Street’s puppet strings attached, open as the sky to everyone, transparent as the sky, and, most importantly, decentralized as the sky. Yet somehow, at some point, that story became the opposite. Today, we are being led...

Is DeFi finally ready for my mom? That ever since I got my knowledge of Blockchains Finance, I’ve been wanting to know, deep implanted question. Their new, multi-chain, yield optimization platform really has me excited! For years, DeFi has had the feeling of an exclusive secret club, open only to...

DeFi. It’s the one place you’re meant to get away with murder in finance, right? Unregulated, untamed, and… well, risky. What happens when that risk actually nips? We’ve witnessed the rug pulls, the exploits, the slow fades into oblivion as project teams vanish with user funds. It’s enough to make...

Blockchains Finance is making bold claims. Their new multi-chain platform promises DeFi nirvana: scalability, optimized yields, and a user experience so simple your grandmother could navigate it. Let's pump the brakes, shall we? We've heard these promises before, haven't we? Remember 2017 and ICO mania? This feels… familiar.Cross-Chain: A Bridge...

The token is not related to Loopscale, a decentralized finance (DeFi) lending protocol on Solana which paused its lending markets after a $5.8 million exploit. It’s official — the platform that could change everything for cities and states today launched, after a six-month closed beta. It has already pulled in...

Loopscale, a lending market constructed on Solana, suffered a critical exploit. The hack has resulted in a loss of $5.8 million, which represents 12% of the platform’s total value locked (TVL). The exploit was aimed specifically at RateX-based collateral pricing, one element in Loopscale’s lending ecosystem.The breach happened less than...

$5.8 million vanished. Poof. Gone. Just like that, Loopscale, a Solana-based lending platform, became the most recent casualty in DeFi’s continual exploit drama. What’s truly gut-wrenching? They had been audited. Twice, actually. Once by OShield, who went so far as to patch critical vulnerabilities themselves, and a second audit, still...
