Analysis covering the 90 days before and after the December 3 Ethereum Fusaka upgrade shows a sharp rise in address poisoning scams and dust transfers, especially in stablecoins. USDT transfers under $0.01 jumped 612% to 29.9 million, while USDC, ETH, and DAI dust activity also climbed, enabling large-scale attacks that have already caused tens of millions of dollars in losses. Researchers say lower fees now allow attackers to bombard high-value wallets with spoofed transactions, and recommend always checking full addresses instead of copying from history.

Evernorth data shows XRP Ledger daily transactions have climbed to almost 3 million in March 2026, roughly three times the around 1 million per day recorded in mid-2025. Average monthly activity rose from about 800,000 transactions in May 2025 to roughly 1.3 million in February 2026, even as XRP's price trades near $1.4 and has yet to mirror the network's usage spike.

On March 12, a user swapped about $50.4 million in aEthUSDT for roughly $36,000 in aEthAAVE via Aave's interface using a CoW Swap-powered widget. Aave later attributed the loss to extreme illiquidity and introduced a new "Aave Shield" protection, while CoW Swap detailed a chain of infrastructure failures and a suspected private mempool leak. On-chain data also shows major MEV extraction from the transaction and has revived questions about Aave's 25-basis-point swap fee flows.
