The post New York Judge Pushes Back Hearing for Aave’s Bid to Unfreeze $71M in ETH appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A New York judge has delayed a decision on Aave’s emergency bid to unfreeze $71 million worth of crypto tied to victims of the $293 million Kelp DAO hack, asking for additional information ahead of a new hearing in June.  Aave has sought to use $71 million in ETH that Arbitrum froze to assist with recovery efforts following the Kelp DAO hack, one of the worst DeFi hacks this year. However, US law firm Gerstein Harrow LLP filed a restraining notice at the start of May, arguing its clients have a claim to the funds. Aave then filed an emergency motion to get the funds unlocked, arguing that user liquidations and potential DeFi market destabilization could occur if the funds are not unlocked soon.    According to documents filed Wednesday in the Southern District of New York, Judge Margaret M.

The post Why the Future of DeFi Will Look More Like Robinhood Than MetaMask appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.  The hardest thing about using DeFi today is not understanding it. Most users get the basic idea quickly: tokens move on a blockchain, you control your own keys, you can swap or lend or stake. The hard part is the workflow. A typical crypto workflow in 2026 still resembles a patchwork of disconnected applications. A user might swap on one interface, bridge through another, deposit into a vault somewhere else, and track positions across multiple wallets and chains, all while managing different gas tokens, approvals, browser tabs, and transaction states. The primitives are powerful. The workflow remains fragmented. This has been the user experience of crypto for most of a decade. The specific tools have improved. The structural fragmentation has not. There is a parallel here the industry has been slow to acknowledge. Outside of crypto, consumer finance has spent the last fifte

The post Solana perps volume hits $2.5B, highest in 24 weeks appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Solana’s perpetual futures trading volume just hit $2.5 billion in a single 24-hour window, a level the network hasn’t seen in nearly six months. That’s 24 weeks of comparatively quiet on-chain derivatives activity, followed by a sudden spike that suggests traders are once again reaching for leverage on Solana’s native platforms. The number matters because perpetual futures, or “perps,” are the backbone of crypto speculation. They let traders bet on price movements with leverage and no expiration date. When perps volume surges, it typically means one of two things: traders are aggressively speculating on directional moves, or they’re scrambling to hedge existing positions. Phoenix rises as the volume king A significant chunk of that $2.5 billion flowed through Phoenix, a Solana-native perpetual trading venue. Phoenix alone reported $1.27 billion in 24-hour trading volume, meaning it captur
