How a Swiss Fintech Just Made Crypto Transactions Easier Than Choosing a Netflix Show!

In a press release that was probably written while sipping overpriced coffee-because that’s how all fintech companies roll-on Sept. 2, they announced that TransAct aims to make distributed ledger technology (that’s DLT for the cool kids) accessible to enterprises and government clients. It’s like bringing a fancy restaurant experience to your boring cafeteria but with a side of automated invoicing in good ol’ US dollars. 💵

When Bunnies Go Boom: $8.4M Vanishes in DeFi Debacle 🐇💸

Picture this: a hacker, armed not with brute force but with mathematical precision, exploited Bunni’s custom LDF system. This mechanism, designed to shower liquidity providers with returns, was tricked into miscalculating ownership stakes.

Crypto Chaos: When Markets Act Like a Soap Opera 🎭💸

Take Ethereum (ETH), for example. The second-largest cryptocurrency on the block-basically the Robin to Bitcoin’s Batman-is currently nursing a modest 0.18% loss over the last 24 hours. A hero’s journey, no doubt, complete with drama: it started strong at $4,417, took a nosedive during the Asian session, then staged a mini comeback to trade at $4,376.25. And let’s not forget its trading volume hitting $37.52 billion while boasting a market cap of $524.85 billion. Honestly, it sounds exhausting just typing that out. 😅
