Term Labs Governance Exploit

Term Labs has confirmed a governance exploit affecting its lending vaults, while security investigators estimate that approximately $8.5 million in cryptocurrency was removed. The final loss, affected contracts and reimbursement position remain unconfirmed.

Also covered: European Union transaction bans taking effect against 11 named crypto platforms, stablecoins emerging as the leading payment method for artificial-intelligence agents, Hyperliquid outperforming the largest cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin continuing to test the strength of its breakout below $80,000.

Listener question: Does a governance exploit worry you more than a smart-contract bug because the attacker can make malicious actions appear authorized?
