MasihGoogle Cloud adds 11 blockchains to data warehouse ‘BigQuery’
In 2018, Google launched a Bitcoin data set as part of the service, and later that year, it added Ethereum as well. It continued to expand its blockchain coverage in February 2019, adding Bitcoin Cash, Dash, Dogecoin, Ethereum Classic, Litecoin and Zcash. The Sept. 21 announcement means that BigQuery now carries data from a total of 19 blockchain networks. In addition to adding these new blockchains, Google has also implemented a new feature intended to make blockchain queries easier to execu...

The team behind Balancer, an Ethereum-based automated market maker, believes a social engineering attack on its DNS service provider led to its website’s front end being compromised on Sept. 19, leading to an estimated $238,000 in crypto stolen. “After investigation, it is clear that this was a social engineering attack on EuroDNS, the domain registrar used for .fi TLDs,” the firm explained in a Sept. 20 X (formerly Twitter) post. Approximately eight hours after the first warning of the attac...

Cypher announced that losses from its exploit will be distributed among users in an initial stage, then compensated through protocol revenue when the platform relaunches.
Crypto trading platform Cypher has published a plan to recover from its $1 million exploit, stating it will “socialize” losses across the platform in an initial stage of the recovery. In the first stage of the plan, the Solana-based trading platform will produce a “pro rata redemption package” of current assets it possesses, which will become withdrawable by users through a web interface. However, the platform does not currently have enough funds to pay back all depositors, so losses will be distributed across all accounts in this initial stage rather than being borne by any particular individual or group.
In the second stage of the recovery process, the protocol will raise funds through an initial DEX offering (IDO), and these funds will be used to pay for audits and further development. At the same time that the IDO is occurring, users will be issued a “debt token” representing the remaining assets they are owed by the protocol. This debt token will grant them the right to USD Coin
profits generated by Cypher in the future, allowing the protocol’s losses from the exploit to eventually be paid back to users.
“Our foremost priority is to direct funds towards impacted users, underscoring our dedication to rectify their financial losses,” the team stated. After these funds are paid back, the team will engage auditors OtterSec and Mad Shield to perform public audits on the patched version of Cypher in an attempt to discover any further bugs before they become a problem.
