Just sold 50% of my #BTC and having cursor over full exit button, will see how #ETH do before sell. This dump is too harsh!

🚨 New paper alert 🚨 No Place to Hide: An Analysis on Protected Order Flow Sandwich Attacks w/ Ozan Solmaz @boez95 @ChristofTorres Bots watch every pending trade in Ethereum's public mempool and sandwich the ones worth attacking. Hence the nickname: the dark forest. In response, Ethereum and other chains built protections, from private RPCs to mechanisms native to the chain, that shield trades from these bots. We call this protected order flow. How well are these users actually protected? We measured it in a three-year study of sandwich attacks by persistent bots against protected order flow on Ethereum, Solana, Tron, Base, Arbitrum, and Monad. The protections on these chains range from private RPCs on Ethereum and private submission to a centralized sequencer on Base and Arbitrum, to first-come-first-served ordering in Tron's public mempool and local mempools on Solana and Monad. Local mempools were never meant as a full front-running prevention, but they do limit who sees a trade before it lands. On four of the six chains, we observe protected order flow sandwich attacks: 28.0M attacks on Solana, 38,567 on Tron, 30,607 on Ethereum plus 2,576 more through reorged blocks, and 1,889 on Base. We trace each chain's exposure and find that it sits in various places along a transaction’s path. 🟠 Ethereum: OFAs can expose enough information to make private trades sandwichable, especially when the same transaction reaches multiple OFAs or when searchers receive full transaction details. Reorged blocks also expose private transactions. We find transactions that were private and untouched in a block that got reorged, and then sandwiched on the canonical chain. 🟠 Solana: transactions are sent to the upcoming leaders, and early on we find that a few leaders carry far more attacks in their blocks than their share of blocks, i.e., they are likely the exposure source for these transactions. From 2025 that fades, but we see that victims concentrate around a few apps. 🟠 Tron: we presume that bots win latency races in the public mempool, so the first-come-first-served ordering in block building does not fully prevent sandwiches. 🟠 Base: we see two different kind of exposure. One lines up with a documented RPC bug that exposed pending transactions. The other has attackers preying on victims who trade on a predictable schedule, if the vicim does the same trade every couple of blocks, the attacker can front-run them without observing the pending trade. Protected order flow sandwiches look very different from public mempool sandwiches. The attacker's transactions often land in a different block than the victim's, and unlike in the public mempool, their success is not guaranteed. These attackers simply don't act with the same certainty. The dark forest may have shrunk, but we show there's an even darker corner of it, where users who think they're protected still get front-run. Protection has to hold at every layer, from the app to the RPC to the block producer. Encrypted mempools and TEE-based designs can help, by keeping transaction contents out of attackers' reach until inclusion. But even they might not be enough on their own without privacy, for example if the victim is too predictable. Link: arxiv.org/abs/2609.28115

Lets see if i get this right: @Strategy has acquired 3,000 BTC for $240M, increased USD Cash by $25M, and repurchased $165M of $STRC. As of 9/6/26, we hold 848,050 bitcoin:native and $6.74B of USD Assets, bringing Net Leverage to 0.0%. $MSTR

Is Michael sellor laundering funds? Who noticed that @saylor ALWAYS buy the pico top or since the 32 BTC sell ALWAYS sell the pico bottom. That cant be a coincide, we want to see the OTC sales, exact dates, premium, benefitor. What if saylor is buying from himself with huge premium and sell now to himself back with huge premium and the stock holder and creditor have to pay it. 850000 BTC money laundering?

The founder of ENS is about to vote himself control of a half billion dollar treasury ENS has a governance emergency and is voting to move the DAO treasury into the FOUNDATION The foundation is controlled by ENSLabs. Nick Johnson’s company The problem is NICK.ETH holds 3.3m voting power and there is no group on that board that can outvote him So when the vote comes, it passes. Not because the community agreed but because most of it left Five years ago Nick said ENS was Ethereum infrastructure and too important to sit with a single entity. That’s why it became a DAO Now the DAO is voting to undo that in public for half a billion dollars The craziest part is that it’s being signed this week and the vote has ONLY 20k views and 12 replies
DAOs are so dead that I see nobody noticed or discussed this proposal that @ENS_DAO essentially dissolves itself and transfers control of the entire treasury (almost half a billion in ENS + stables) to the ENS foundation.

the latest tornado cash proposal 67 is _malicious_: https://bafybeie5hxovqc4ifcnrnhvmjbefxgeix6oqvzaspyytdxiyscji22v5pu[.]ipfs[.]inbrowser[.]link/governance/67 decompilation of the proposal: app.dedaub.com/ethereum/addr… the try to set the governance address to a vanity address that looks almost like the governance address: - spoofed version: `0x5EFDa50f22D34F272c7077689d6ABc42F15E285f` - real governance address: `0x5efda50f22d34F262c29268506C5Fa42cB56A1Ce` same for the staking governance proxy: - spoofed version `0x2fc93484614a34f7dbf98d7f7e997f6424e54a32` - real staking address: `0x2FC93484614a34f26F7970CBB94615bA109BB4bf` furthermore, worth mentioning the function `nullifyBalance` checks against the spoofed governance address above; so whoever controls that vanity address can zero out any relayer's balance at will. this is a governance attack on Tornado Cash and i ask all TORN tokenholders to reject this proposal
1/ A suspicious DAO proposal on Tornado Cash was created ~8hrs ago. Summoning @pcaversaccio (and everyone else curious) for an independent opinion! Details in the thread below👇

It happend, jaredfromsubway.eth lost $7 million dollar in a hack and the reason is simple. For Uniswap pools you have to transfer the token to the contract and then call mint(). But RingSwap wants you to approve the pool and call mint(), it then calls transerFrom. The problem, since SELFDESTRUCT got nerfed you cant re-deploy a new contrct with CREATE2 anymore, thats what we used to update our Mev Bots. So Jared couldnt add checks to see if the allowance got consumed. His only option was to deploy a new contract but he decided to be sloppy and keep his 2 million transaction count on etherscan, over a protocol that gives him $100 net profit a day.

I thought about it and a simpel WETH.approve(0); as a last call would have avoid the 7 million exploit 🤣

Thats amazing
We made a fake repo with fake bounties, and the bots are applying fake PRs, so we know who is fake, and we can ban them from the Coolify repo. IQ over 1000

A year ago someone asked me what the best MEV strategy was. I said: “arb.” Today he messaged me saying he’s been studying really hard… then started talking to me in Arabic. Just realized autocorrect changed “arb” to “arab.” He didn’t find alpha, he found @duolingo.

My entire timeline is filled with Artemis II deniers „proof“, Ive never seen such a shitstorm when @elonmusk reaches new milestone, that have to be a bot farm approved by Elon to hate against @NASA to make @SpaceX look better.

Just imagine @saylor disappears with the 815000 $BTC and he start sending every day a few more to OTC and other exchanges. He could destroy the entire Crypto market for YEARS, it would be even worse than Satoshi wallets start moving.
