Abracadabra loses $1.8 million in protocol's third major DeFi hack since 2024 In the attack, which occurred late Saturday night, an unknown threat actor leveraged a smart contract vulnerability to bypass solvency checks, allowing them to extract 1.79 million MIM from the protocol, according to security firm BlockSec Phalcon. The attack wallet's initial funding came from mixing protocol Tornado Cash; following the attack, the attacker swapped the tokens for ETH and sent it back to Tornado. "A potential attack vector was identified today in some deprecated contracts. The issue has been mitigated and closed," DAO contributor 0xMerlin wrote on the protocol's Discord server. "The affected MIM (although minimal) was bought back from the market using the DAO treasury and is currently awaiting repayment to the DAO treasury in ETH...No user funds have been affected." https://www.theblock.co/post/373453/abracadabra-loses-1-8-million-in-protocols-third-major-defi-hack-since-2024

Morning Minute: OpenSea Makes Big Moves in Final Sprint to $SEA OpenSea saw arguably the most bullish series of announcements in its existence, and $SEA is now on the horizon. Morning Minute is a daily newsletter written by Tyler Warner. The analysis and opinions expressed are his own and do not necessarily reflect those of Decrypt.

OpenSea is clearly trying to be more than “just an NFT marketplace.” And yesterday’s reveal pushed it toward an on-chain trading superapp with AI at the core, a seven-figure cultural fund, and a gamified final rewards push ahead of the $SEA token event. https://decrypt.co/338615/morning-minute-opensea-makes-big-moves-in-final-sprint-to-sea

Dogecoin (DOGE) Price Prediction For January 9 Let’s dive into what’s happening with Dogecoin (DOGE) right now. Currently, Dogecoin is trading at around $0.33, which is slightly down from where it was earlier. It had a bit of a range today, hitting a high of $0.35 and dipping as low as $0.32. So, it’s been moving, but not in a particularly dramatic way. If we zoom out and look at the bigger picture, Dogecoin has had a rough month, dropping about 28% in market capitalization. That’s a pretty big pullback, and you can feel the bearish sentiment in the air. Even social media chatter around Dogecoin seems to have quieted down, which often reflects a cooling off in hype-driven momentum. https://blockchainreporter.net/daily-prediction/dogecoin-doge-price-for-january-9/

Bitcoin Tumble Triggered $1.4 Billion in Liquidations Altcoins have felt the sting, too. Ethereum was down 16% over a 24-hour period at one point, with XRP plunging 18% and Dogecoin 26%.
