The developer of interconnected blockchain network Cosmos (ATOM) is warning that the Liquid Staking Module (LSM) of the Cosmos Hub poses serious security risks. In a statement, Cosmos co-founder Jae Kwon says that when developer Zaki Manian began building the LSM in August 2021, Jun Kai and Sarawut Sanit, coders who were later linked to North Korea, wrote most of the module’s code.

Monochrome Asset Management To Launch Australia’s First Spot Ethereum ETF

Image
Australian asset manager Monochrome Asset Management is gearing up to launch the country’s first spot Ethereum ETF (exchange-traded fund).

Uniswap (UNI) Jumps 12% As Project Announces New Ethereum (ETH) Layer-2 Focused on DeFi

Uniswap’s native token, UNI, ignored a stagnant crypto market and surged by more than 12% on Thursday as the decentralized exchange (DEX) project announced a new Ethereum (ETH) layer-2 project. Uniswap Labs says the new project, called “Unichain,” aims to facilitate decentralized finance (DeFi) and liquidity across chains. “Unichain is designed to leverage and accelerate Ethereum’s scaling roadmap, moving execution to an L2. In practice, this means Unichain will lower transaction costs by ~95% compared to Ethereum L1 in the short term, and even more over time. Unichain will soon introduce a decentralized validation network that allows nodes to verify blocks. This adds an additional layer of finality and reduces the risk of conflicting or invalid blocks.” Hayden Adams, the chief executive of Uniswap Labs, says the new layer-2 is a result of “six years of designing and building in the DeFi space.” “Unichain is built on top of the Superchain – with a few new addit

Dogs Price Prediction: DOGS Drops 5% As Traders Pivot To This New Meme Coin Rival With 691% APY

Image
The Dogs price has plunged 6% in the last 24 hours to trade at $0.0006754 as of 00:31 a.m. EST on trading volume that surged 51% to $281 million. Dogs Price Aiming For A Breakout The Dogs price is in a downtrend, characterized by a series of lower highs and lower lows since early September. The falling wedge pattern drawn on the chart reinforces this downtrend. However, toward the right side of the chart, we see that the Dogs price is consolidating in a sideways range within the $0.000690 range, which could indicate the formation of a potential reversal pattern or accumulation phase, according to data from GeckoTerminal . The price of Dogs now trades above both the 50-day and 200-day Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), affirming the recent downtrend.

Moo Deng Price Prediction: MOODENG Soars 11% Amid Whale FOMO Frenzy Around Pepe Unchained ICO

Image
The Moo Deng price soared more than 11% in the last 24 hours to trade at $0.1654 as of 7:22 a.m. EST as investors rush to buy the meme coin. With the recent surge in the MOODENG price, the crypto has skyrocketed more than 377% over the past 30 days. The Moo Deng Price Approaching A Major Resistance 4-hour chart for MOODENG/USD (Source: GeckoTerminal ) A positive trend line has emerged on the 4-hour chart for Moo Deng, with the meme coin now attempting to flip the resistance level at $0.2290 into support. Should the crypto clear this technical barrier, it could have the foundation needed to keep climbing through the course of the next trading day. MOODENG might subsequently climb to as high as $0.3785 in the short term. On the other hand, the Moo Deng price failing to break above the $0.2290 obstacle within the next 24 hours could prevent a bullish move from happening. In this alternative case, traders might end up panicking and potentially dump their holdings in the meme coin.
