🐞 SushiSwap: The $3M Mistake!

SushiSwap had a bug in its smart contract that resulted in over $3 million in losses on April 9.

The bug only affected users who had swapped on the protocol over the past four days.

That’s some serious bad timing for those guys! πŸ˜•

Sushi's head developer (Jared Grey) has urged users to revoke permissions for all contracts on the protocol. A list of contracts requiring revocation was even created on GitHub to help resolve the issue.

But thankfully, a large portion of the affected funds was recovered through a white hat security process.

🩸 Ethereum staking deposits plummet

Ethereum staking deposit is taking a dive.

Ethereum staking deposits have decreased in recent weeks due to increased regulatory pressure and the upcoming Shanghai hard fork scheduled for April 12th.

The long-awaited upgrade will enable Eth staking withdrawals.

It's no wonder people are hesitant to jump in. It's like they're waiting for Eth's price will react.

Nobody wants to be caught with their pants down. πŸ˜€

According to the Ethereum metrics tracking platform Ultrasound Money, there are currently 18.1 million ETH staked in total currently valued at around $33.7 billion.

That represents 15% of the entire supply. Once that upgrade hits, it's going to be like the grand prison break of the century! 🀣
