📊 5. DeFi: Protocol Hacks and Synthetic Stablecoin DepeggingThis week saw a hack of Balancer, one of the oldest DeFi protocols, followed by problems with Moonwell, and then a chain of events with synthetic stablecoins: xUSD, deUSD, USDX. xUSD from Stream Finance collapsed from $1.25 to $0.12 due to issues in delta-neutral strategies. Curators created risky looping strategies with LTV above 90%, and some vaults had fixed oracles, causing liquidators to fail.➡️ This reminds us of the importance of diversification and understanding risks in DeFi: high APR is not a free bonus but compensation for increased risks.🔗 DeFi protocol hacks analysis 🔗 DeFi synthetic stablecoin depegging analysis🛍 6.

🪐 Global Crypto Market⛏ 1. Bitcoin Falls Below $100,000: Whales Dump $45B in AssetsBTC price dropped 7.4%, falling below $100,000 for the first time since June — more than 20% below last month's record. Unlike previous crashes, the current decline is caused by spot market sell-offs rather than futures liquidations. According to 10x Research, long-term holders sold approximately 400,000 BTC ($45B), causing market imbalance. Analysts from market maker Wintermute noted a break in the usual four-year cycles and crypto lagging behind other instruments.➡️ Long-term Bitcoin whales are transferring coins to ETFs for tax optimization, and Bitcoin's annual growth rate is declining — it's no longer a high-yield instrument and is used as a hedge against failures in traditional financial systems.TON Insights
