Hello friends and welcome back to BlockThreat!
After a brief break from the newsletter, I will be slowly catching up to the current week. Expect not as rich but just as comprehensive editions in the meantime.
My prediction of increased hotwallet compromises toward the end of the year unfortunately came true. AscendEx (aka BitMax) lost almost $78M early in the week. Check out a curious hack of Pizza project on EOS as well as plenty of research articles from this week. On the tool side, Paradigm dropped an excellent Ethereum testing tool called Foundry while Coinbase published a well-tested cryptography library called Kryptology.
