forklog.media Cardano Foundation Cancels 2026 Summit After Funding Vote Fails

The non-profit Cardano Foundation has canceled the Cardano Summit 2026 in Singapore after a proposal for treasury funding failed to gain the necessary support in an on-chain vote. Governance requires not only participation, but also a commitment to accept collective decisions. The Cardano community has spoken and we respect the outcome.Following the outcome of the Treasury proposal votes, the Cardano Foundation's proposed Cardano Summit 2026, will not…— Cardano Foundation (@Cardano_CF) May 30, 2026 The final initiative proposed allocating 7.8 million ADA — approximately $2 million — for the two-day event. This was a revised version of the proposal following community criticism. The Cardano Foundation stated that they reduced the budget by 22% and emphasized the ecosystem impact of the summit. Initially, the foundation, in collaboration with EMURGO, requested 14,076,539 ADA, or about $3.66 million, to host the Cardano Summit 2026 and for title sponsorship of the TOKEN2049 conference in Singapore, scheduled for October 5-8. The Cardano Summit and participation in TOKEN2049 were intended to strengthen the ecosystem's institutional presence in Asia. Singapore was chosen due to its status as a global financial hub. The Cardano Foundation warned that if the proposal was rejected, the summit would not take place, and the organization would focus on other, more limited initiatives for the corporate and institutional segments. After the vote concluded, the foundation confirmed this scenario. Approval for treasury fund withdrawal required about 66.67% of active DRep votes. According to publications on the voting process and its results, the proposal received around 65% support, falling short of the required threshold. Meanwhile, EMURGO's initiative for sponsoring TOKEN2049 was approved. The Cardano Summit website states that the foundation respects the community's decision, and EMURGO's proposal for participation in the October 7-8 conference passed the vote. Hours before the deadline, the Cardano Foundation and Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson urged DRep to support the revised proposal. However, this was insufficient for its approval.

forklog.media White Hat Hacker Unlocks $2 Million in 2016 Smart Contract

Nearly nine years after the failed ICO of the HongCoin project, a white hat hacker known as Florent unlocked 1,003.62 ETH (approximately $2 million). First white-hat exploit on Ethereum: I unlocked 1,003.62 Ξ ($2,000,000) trapped in a 2016 ICO smart contract for 9 years. The 48 original investors can now claim their funds. pic.twitter.com/lyh5iyaDu7— 0xflorent.eth (@0xFlorent_) May 31, 2026 The funds were stuck in the HONG smart contract, deployed on August 29, 2016. The sale did not reach its minimum target, and Ethereum was supposed to be automatically returned to investors. However, due to a critical error in the refund function, the coins were frozen. The mechanism rejected user requests if their balance exceeded the value of the global counter. Florent discovered a vulnerability in the administrative function of the contract, written in Solidity v0.3.5. Older versions of the language lacked protection against integer overflow. The hacker found that a specific function call allows the balance of an address to be reset, after which the function check passes successfully. Since access to the admin function was restricted by the HongCoin team's multisig, the researcher contacted the developers. Together, they conducted 41 transactions to unlock the addresses of 48 investors. Two investors have already withdrawn 96.5 ETH and voluntarily sent a reward to the hacker. HongCoin was positioned as “venture capital for everyone.” The ICO lasted from August 29 to October 28, 2016. All 1,003.62 ETH were sent to this contract and remained there until now. Florent has previously helped recover access to assets in other outdated protocols, including a failed 2018 ICO and Liquality atomic swaps. He says he uses proprietary software and AI tools for initial code analysis to find vulnerable contracts with balances exceeding 100 ETH. In April, a record number of hacks in the crypto industry was recorded for a month. As a result of more than 20 incidents, the damage amounted to $651 million.

forklog.media Sui Developers Explain Causes of Three Network Halts

The Sui Foundation team released a report detailing the causes of three mainnet halts that occurred on May 28 and 29. The incidents were linked to vulnerabilities that emerged following the software upgrade to version 1.72. The first network halt lasted approximately six and a half hours. According to the developers, it was triggered by a bug in the new Address Balances feature, which caused failures in the gas deduction mechanism. Transactions were canceled due to insufficient funds, yet the network continued to spend them, creating negative balances. This led to a failure during the validators' account reconciliation stage. The second disruption occurred due to the implementation of an interim fix for the first error. The team acknowledged that they were aware of the "low probability" of a halt due to the patch but consciously took this risk for the quick restoration of the blockchain's operation. The third halt was caused by a completely different, previously unknown issue. When restarting nodes to install the final fix, a hidden bug related to saving random number generation settings between epochs was triggered. Due to the error, validators were unable to record the necessary data and close the epoch, paralyzing the network for the third time. The Sui Foundation emphasized that user funds remained completely secure, and confirmed transactions were not rolled back after the network was restored. All errors have now been fixed, and the network is operating normally. Project representatives also noted that they successfully used AI agents to expedite diagnostics and collect metrics from validator logs during the incidents. Back in January, Sui also experienced a six-hour outage.
