Makina Finance, a non-custodial DeFi execution platform, has suffered a serious attack resulting in the theft of approximately 1,299 ETH, equivalent to $4.2 million. The incident targeted the DUSD/USDC CurveStable pool, raising significant concerns about the safety of user assets.

According to blockchain security firm PeckShieldAlert, the attacker exploited a vulnerability in this pool and quickly converted all assets into ETH to take advantage of high liquidity and flexible movement. On-chain data shows ETH was transferred through an MEV builder to obscure transaction traces and hinder tracking.

Subsequently, the stolen ETH was split into two main wallets, holding 1,023 ETH and 276 ETH respectively. There are currently no signs that the assets have been transferred to centralized exchanges. To date, Makina Finance has not issued an official statement, leaving the community in continued concern as investigators are still monitoring the developments.

Less than a cent crashes liquidity of over $10,000,000; order attacks may drain Polymarket market makers

Author: Frank, PANews An on-chain transaction costing less than $0.1 can instantly wipe out market-making orders worth tens of thousands of dollars from Polymarket's order book. This is not a theoretical scenario; it is a current reality. In February 2026, a user revealed a new type of attack against Polymarket market makers on social media. Blogger BuBBliK described it as "elegant & brutal," because the attacker only needs to pay less than $0.1 in Gas fees on the Polygon network to complete an attack cycle in about 50 seconds, while victims—those market makers and automated trading bots placing genuine buy and sell orders on the order book—face order destruction or passive losses.
