Earlier this week, Helius Medical Technologies dropped almost 34% after buying a chunky $175 million worth of Solana. Nice timing, guys. Can’t make this up. 😬
The culprit? A hacker, or perhaps more accurately, a digital Houdini. CertiK, a blockchain security firm, confirmed that the attacker tricked Ethereum into believing a counterfeit LayerZero Peer was legitimate.

In the last 48 hours, wallets brimming with 100 million to 1 billion DOGE tokens gorged on 2 billion coins, as if savoring a feast of digital caviar. This feast, orchestrated by the enigmatic Ali Martinez, was witnessed through Santiment’s spectral lens. The acquisition occurred during a fleeting dip to $0.245, a momentary sigh in the market’s grand opera.
As a long-time follower of One Piece, I’ve noticed that Eiichiro Oda really loves to think outside the box when designing Devil Fruit powers. Sometimes, though, those powers become so strange and complex that they’re hard to understand – even after hundreds of chapters and episodes, some still feel completely baffling!
