The post Huma Finance exploit Polygon: $101,000 loss from V1 pools appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A Huma Finance exploit Polygon incident has put a familiar DeFi problem back in the spotlight: old contracts can stay dangerous long after a protocol has moved on. Huma Finance said roughly $101,000 was drained from its deprecated V1 BaseCreditPool contracts on Polygon on May 11, but user deposits were not affected. The attacker pulled out 82,316 USDC and 19,075 USDC.e through unauthorized drawdowns, according to the protocol’s disclosure. Just as important for users, Huma said the losses were limited to pool owner fees and protocol fees, not customer funds. That distinction matters. In crypto, the words “exploit” and “drained” can quickly trigger fears of wider contagion. Here, Huma drew a sharp line between the older Polygon-based system that was hit and the parts of the project still running normally, including PayFi Strategy Token (PST) and Huma’s V2 deployment on Solana.

The post Circle’s Q1 USDC revenue, profit dip; ARC presale wins appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Homepage > News > Business > Circle’s Q1 USDC revenue, profit fall but ARC token presale a winner USDC stablecoin-issuer Circle (NASDAQ: CRCL) saw its Q1 profits slip but got a major boost from a nine-figure presale of its brand new Layer-1 network token.  Figures released Monday show Circle’s total ‘revenue and reserve’ income hitting $694 million in the first three months of 2026, one-fifth higher than the same period last year. However, it’s down from the $770 million reported in Q4 2025 and from $740 million in last year’s Q3. Circle’s revenue primarily comes from interest on the reserve assets backing USDC (mostly U.S. Treasuries), and while USDC’s market cap grew 28% year-on-year during Q1, the average 3.5% return on those T-bills was down by 66 basis points. Reserve income still managed to rise 17% to $653 million, while ‘other’ revenue from subscription & services and transactio

The post Solana News: Alpenglow Upgrade Activates for Live Validator Testing appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Solana’s Alpenglow upgrade entered community validator testing on May 11, with development firm Anza describing the activation as the largest consensus change in the network’s history, targeting block confirmation times of approximately 150 milliseconds and potentially as low as 100 milliseconds under favorable network conditions. This is huge news for Solana. The upgrade replaces TowerBFT and removes Proof of History from the network’s core process, a structural change significant enough that its success or failure will materially define Solana’s competitive position among high-throughput Layer-1 networks through the remainder of 2026. SOL traded near $97 following the announcement, with an intraday range between $94 and $98, suggesting a limited short-term market reaction to a development that remains well upstream of mainnet. The testing phase places Alpenglow on a commu
