Hindi malinaw kung ang Lazarus Group din ang nasa likod ng pag-atake, o kung mayroong anumang uri ng kaugnayan sa organisasyon at sa entity na nagsamantala sa Euler Finance.

Ang Idinagdag ng U.S. Department of the Treasury ang Lazarus Group, sa listahan nito ng mga itinalagang entity noong Abril. Noong Enero, sinabi ng Federal Bureau of Investigation na ang Lazarus Group, kasama ang kapwa North Korean hacking squad na APT38, ay responsable sa pagnanakaw ng $100 milyon sa mga asset ng Crypto mula sa Horizon Bridge. Ang Lazarus Group ay isang cybercrime organization na pinamamahalaan ng North Korean government.

Sa kabuuan, Euler Finance ay pinagsamantalahan para sa halos $200 milyon sa Crypto na higit sa lahat ay denominasyon sa DAI, Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), staked ether (sETH) at USDC.

Ang umaatake sa likod ng pagsasamantala ay T kinakailangang "hack" ito, o sirain ang code nito upang makapasok sa loob, ngunit sa halip ay manipulahin ang mga panloob Markets sa pamamagitan ng isang flash loan upang maubos ang treasury nito.

Noong nakaraang Oktubre, isang katulad na pamamaraan ang ginamit manipulahin ang Solana-based na protocol na Mango Markets upang maubos ang kaban nito. Ang indibidwal sa likod ng pagsasamantala, si Avraham Eisenberg, ay naaresto sa Puerto Rico sa huling bahagi ng Disyembre.

Ang presyo ng token ni Euler, ang EUL, ay kamakailang nakalakal sa $1.85, ayon sa CoinGecko. Bumaba ito ng halos 74% sa nakalipas na linggo.

Pudgy Penguins: A New Blueprint for Tokenized Culture

Pudgy Title Image

Pudgy Penguins is building a multi-vertical consumer IP platform — combining phygital products, games, NFTs and PENGU to monetize culture at scale.

What to know:

Pudgy Penguins is emerging as one of the strongest NFT-native brands of this cycle, shifting from speculative “digital luxury goods” into a multi-vertical consumer IP platform. Its strategy is to acquire users through mainstream channels first; toys, retail partnerships and viral media, then onboard them into Web3 through games, NFTs and the PENGU token.

The ecosystem now spans phygital products (> $13M retail sales and >1M units sold), games and experiences (Pudgy Party surpassed 500k downloads in two weeks), and a widely distributed token (airdropped to 6M+ wallets). While the market is currently pricing Pudgy at a premium relative to traditional IP peers, sustained success depends on execution across retail expansion, gaming adoption and deeper token utility.

Circle’s biggest bear just threw in the towel, but warns the stock is still a crypto roller coaster

Circle’s rising correlation with ether and DeFi exposure drives the re-rating, despite valuation and competition concerns.

What to know:

  • Compass Point’s Ed Engel upgraded Circle (CRCL) to Neutral from Sell and cut his price target to $60, arguing the stock now trades more as a proxy for crypto markets than as a standalone fintech.
  • Engel notes that CRCL’s performance is increasingly tied to the ether and broader crypto cycles, with more than 75% of USDC supply used in DeFi or on exchanges, and the stock is still trading at a rich premium.
  • Potential catalysts such as the CLARITY Act and tokenization of U.S. assets could support USDC growth, but Circle faces mounting competition from new stablecoins and bank-issued “deposit coins,” and its revenue may remain closely linked to speculative crypto activity for years.
