The crypto ecosystem has just suffered one of the most sophisticated attacks in its history. A "crypto-clipper" injected via compromised NPM modules quietly diverts wallet addresses during transactions. How did this breach escape security radars?
August was marked by two opposing signals in the crypto market. Ethereum reached an unprecedented peak of activity, confirming the growing interest of investors in its ecosystem. Conversely, Bitcoin suffered a brutal shock after the massive liquidation of 24,000 BTC by a single actor. This contrast is not just a technical divergence. It illustrates an ongoing rearrangement, between regulatory innovations, strategic repositioning of players, and the evolution of the balance of power between major assets.
Behind Bitcoin's apparent stability, an imbalance threatens the network's sustainability. Since April, transaction fees have dropped by more than 80%, shaking the remuneration model of mining companies. Amid the rise of ETFs and after a demanding halving, it is Bitcoin's internal economy that is faltering. Lower fees, fewer incentives, more risks to protocol security, the crisis is here, structural, and raises a question the ecosystem can no longer ignore.
Shibarium collapses. In ten days, the daily transactions of the Shiba Inu layer 2 blockchain dropped from 4.8 million to less than 10,000, a fall of 99.8%. This is not a slowdown, but a brutal stop. Launched a year ago as the engine of the SHIB ecosystem, the network is facing a spectacular loss of momentum. In a lethargic crypto market at this end of August, this plunge raises questions about the real adoption of this project, which is nevertheless highly exposed in the media.
While the market oscillates between technical consolidation and the return of institutional appetite, an extraordinary movement attracts all attention. An actor holding more than 5 billion dollars in bitcoin redirects a major part of its capital towards Ethereum. The scale of the amounts, the transparency of on-chain transactions, and the timing of the operation are striking. More than a simple arbitrage, this strategic repositioning seems to redraw the power relations between the two historical pillars of the crypto universe.
Bitcoin clears the space around it: small ones slip away, the big ones get richer. Meanwhile, the network coughs, fees drop, and ETFs flee.
Since touching a daily high of $24.74 on August 13, Chainlink’s (LINK) northward price movement has cooled, pushing the asset a few levels lower. Despite LINK’s upward trend stalling, large holders are still accumulating the coin. Generally, these whale buyers view this slip as a “buy the dip” window for a potential next leg higher. So, what are the current bets regarding LINK’s future trend?

When a giant stumbles, the entire crypto ecosystem holds its breath.
