Several blockchain networks recently faced price-manipulation attacks involving tokens such as TONIC, leading to emergency halts and, in one case, a chain rollback.

Bitquery reported net outflows of about $8.3 million on Ethereum and the discarding of 10,961 blocks, while project teams said they fully recovered 531,600 bnUSD and 1.366 million SODA and retrieved 82,430 USDC. Officials said user assets were not affected, but the incidents highlighted the limits of network halts once funds move across chains or into custodial venues.

JPMorgan estimates the move could trigger about $2.8 billion in passive-fund outflows. The consultation runs through Sept. 30, with a final decision expected around Oct. 16, covering six companies including Strategy.
