Taiko cross-chain bridge suffers from hacker attack, losing 1.7 million USD
Hackers exploited the Raiko SGX key leak (discovered on GitHub) to breach Taiko's chain state verification mechanism, forging bridge message proofs to withdraw funds from L1. Taiko has suspended the bridge, requesting CEX to halt TAIKO deposits. DeFi developer Andre Cronje also announced his resignation from the Sonic Labs board, and the S token has dropped 97% from historical highs.
Hot Debate: Security researchers question "was it an operational mistake or truly hacked?" The act of directly posting keys on GitHub has led to collective complaints from the industry.

Today's Dark Line
Identity verification, key leaks, sanctions list—today's news revolves around one term: the cost of trust. Claude requires a passport to allow usage, Taiko gets hacked after throwing keys on GitHub, and HTX ends up on the blacklist for helping Russia transfer money. The more advanced the technology, the more fatal human errors and motivations become. Meanwhile, the Strait of Hormuz is "closed but not closed," and in the chip supercycle, "the bottleneck is the money printer"—the rules of the game in 2026 have changed, where it’s not about who runs faster, but who can hold steady and who can choke the necks.
