forklog.media Retail Investors Drive USDT0 Turnover

The omnichain token USDT0, backed by the stablecoin USDT at a 1:1 ratio, is primarily popular among retail users. According to a report by Everdawn Labs for The Block, 99.2% of users hold less than $1,000 in their wallets. Balances ranging from $100,000 to $1 million are held by 1,200 users, while only 35 addresses hold over $10 million. Developers believe this audience structure indicates genuine demand from ordinary people, not just institutions. USDT0 was launched at the beginning of 2025 with the support of LayerZero and Tether. The protocol operates across 23 blockchains, including the Tempo network by Stripe. The total trading volume to date has reached $86.7 billion. In terms of USDT held, the protocol ranks third after the Binance and OKX exchanges. Use Cases Users primarily employ the token in the DeFi sector. In April, the trading volume of derivatives using USDT0 reached $80 million. The token is also used for moving capital between networks. Data from the cross-chain gateway confirms retail dominance: the median transfer amount is $902, while the average is about $90,000. Transactions exceeding $1 million account for only 1.8% of the total number, yet they constitute 68.8% of the overall volume. USDT0 has changed hands nearly 22 times with a supply volume of $4 billion. Project co-founder Lorenzo Romagnoli stated that in 2026, the team will focus on integrating with new ecosystems and simplifying gateways for deposits and withdrawals. The project does not claim revenue from Tether's reserves. According to Romagnoli, the main goal of USDT0 is to unify liquidity and eliminate market barriers. The team covers operational expenses through partnerships with blockchains. Back in April, Tether's investment division proposed merging three companies to create a leading public entity in the Bitcoin industry.

forklog.media Elon Musk Labels Most Cryptocurrencies as Scams

During a court hearing against OpenAI, Elon Musk, the head of Tesla and SpaceX, stated that he considers most cryptocurrencies to be fraudulent projects. This was reported by Fortune, citing the session in Oakland. The billionaire's comment came in response to a request to clarify his stance on digital assets—a question that arose in the context of discussing the AI company's plans for an ICO in 2018. At that time, the firm was considering issuing its own token to raise funds. “Some [cryptocurrencies] have value, but most are just scams,” said Musk. A Change in Stance Previously, the entrepreneur was considered a supporter of digital assets. In 2021, Tesla became one of the first public companies to add Bitcoin to its corporate reserves, although Musk himself described the $1.5 billion investment as risky. In the spring of the same year, the firm began selling electric cars for digital gold. Musk suggested that one day it might be possible to purchase a car with the meme coin Dogecoin, which he also repeatedly endorsed. A few months later, Tesla suspended the option to pay with Bitcoin due to concerns about the environmental impact of mining the coin. The company still holds over 11,000 BTC worth $886 million. Source: Arkham. SpaceX also holds 8,285 BTC valued at $638 million, according to Arkham. Community Reaction Users criticized Musk for hypocrisy. A user with the nickname Marcus recalled the sharp rise in DOGE prices every time the billionaire mentioned the coin. The man who pumped Dogecoin to a $90 billion market cap calling crypto scams 🤦🏾‍♂️The audacity has no ceiling…— M̲̅A̲̅R̲̅C̲̅U̲̅S̲̅ 🥷 (@freshesmarcus) April 30, 2026 “The man who pumped Dogecoin to a $90 billion market cap calling crypto scams. The audacity has no ceiling,” he wrote. Musk's social network X also actively promotes digital assets. In mid-April, the platform launched the Cashtags feature to track cryptocurrency rates. Earlier, the entrepreneur announced the launch of X Money—a digital wallet for P2P transfers and payments. Some community members agreed with Musk's opinion. In their view, only Bitcoin, Ethereum, and a few major altcoins have real value. Lol did you really need Elon musk to tell you this?I'd say anyone with a 90 IQ can see that.Bitcoin, Eth, and a handful of other crypto have use cases and will survive and thrive.Most are garbage 99.9%— Dwayne Bennett (@DwayneNHL) May 1, 2026 “Did you really need Elon Musk to tell you this? I'd say anyone with an IQ around 90 would say the same,” wrote one user. Back in late March, the billionaire hired a former designer from Base and Aave to work on X.

forklog.media Arbitrum DAO to Vote on $71 Million Transfer to DeFi United Fund

The governance of the L2 network Arbitrum has initiated a vote on transferring 30,766 ETH (~$71 million) to the DeFi United fund, established to aid the sector's recovery following the Kelp hack.  The project's security council had previously frozen these assets at the hacker's address and moved them to an "interim frozen wallet."  The discussion will continue until May 7. At the time of publication, the community had cast 34 million ARB in support of the proposal. Source: snapshot.org.  The Arbitrum security council's decision to freeze the perpetrator's funds has divided the community. Some participants criticized the possibility of manual intervention in the network's state, while others deemed the actions justified given the scale of the damage. Largest Contribution to DeFi United As of May 1, DeFi United had raised over $314 million—enough to fully cover the $290 million damage from the Kelp hack.  Source: defiunited.world.  If the vote concludes with approval, the Arbitrum DAO will become the largest donor to the initiative. For comparison:  ConsenSys and Joseph Lubin jointly allocated 30,000 ETH; Mantle provided a loan of 30,000 ETH; The Aave DAO is considering transferring 25,000 ETH, in addition to 5,000 ETH from protocol founder Stani Kulechov; LayerZero directed 5,000 ETH and placed another 5,000 ETH in Aave; Kelp contributed 2,000 ETH. April was one of the most productive months for hackers. The industry's losses reached $651 million, noted CertiK specialists. This is the highest figure since March 2022, when the sector lost $715 million. #CertiKStatsAlert 🚨Combining all the incidents in April we’ve confirmed ~$651M lost to exploits with~$3.5M of the total attributed to phishing.April has had the highest losses recorded since March 2022 (~$715M), excluding Feb 2025 (Bybit).More details below 👇 pic.twitter.com/x9uAbLbtMz— CertiK Alert (@CertiKAlert) April 30, 2026 The main damage was caused by two incidents: Drift at the beginning of the month lost $285 million, followed by the Kelp hack.

The attack caused issues with "bad debts" in the lending protocol Aave, forcing the community to seek emergency loans and donations. The second largest was the breach of Drift Protocol on the Solana platform, with damages exceeding $280 million. Project representatives stated that the attack was not due to a code bug. According to them, it was a planned operation prepared over six months using social engineering techniques. Another notable case was the hack of the Hyperbridge protocol on the Polkadot network: the project lost $2.5 million due to forged cross-chain messages. The perpetrator issued about 1 billion DOT tokens and sold them. At the end of the month, an expert known as Wazz reported the hacking of hundreds of wallets on the Ethereum network, many of which had been inactive for more than seven years.

On April 28, the Ethereum infrastructure project Syndicate was hacked. Cybersecurity experts estimated the losses at $330,000. At the same time, attackers breached the Aftermath Finance exchange in the Sui ecosystem, extracting about $900,000 in USDC. A day earlier, the L1 network ZetaChain was affected. Developers stated that the incident only impacted the team's internal wallets. The damage amounted to $333,868.
