Venus Protocol hit by THE token price exploit, leaving about $2.15 million in bad debt
On Sunday, lending platform Venus Protocol on BNB Chain suffered a price manipulation exploit involving Thena's low-liquidity THE token, leaving an estimated $2.15 million in bad debt. The attacker allegedly used a donation-based workaround to bypass the protocol's supply cap and repeatedly inflated THE's oracle price before liquidation. On-chain analysts reported that the operation was funded via Tornado Cash and may have generated little or no direct on-chain profit for the attacker.

SEC Ends BitClout Fraud Case With Prejudicial Dismissal on 12 March 2026
On 12 March 2026, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission moved to dismiss its civil fraud lawsuit against BitClout and DeSo founder Nader Al-Naji with prejudice, eliminating the possibility of refiling the same claims. The complaint had alleged $257M in unregistered token sales and $7M in investor funds spent on personal items, yet the case concluded with no penalties and no admission of wrongdoing. The outcome aligns with a broader pattern of the SEC scaling back several prominent crypto enforcement actions since 2025.
