PANews reported on November 17th that Yala, a Bitcoin liquidity and native stablecoin project, released an update on the X platform regarding the recent liquidity issue of its YU token: On September 14th, 2025, an attacker used a temporary deployment key to create an unauthorized cross-chain bridge and withdrew 7.64 million USDC (approximately 1636 ETH), causing YU to temporarily become unpegged. However, no core protocol vulnerabilities were compromised, and there was no loss of Bitcoin reserves. The team injected $5.5 million of its own funds and supplemented liquidity through the Euler platform. By September 23rd, YU had fully recovered, and the Yala protocol had returned to normal. On October 29th, Bangkok law enforcement arrested the attacker, and most of the recovered funds are pending legal review. Some funds were converted to Ethereum in advance, and the price has fallen. Additionally, the attacker had already spent some funds, reducing the actual value recovered. More detailed information will be provided when legally permissible. Recent retail investor withdrawals from DeFi have exacerbated market panic and liquidity shortages, impacting Euler and restricting some of its previously stabilized YU positions and liquidity. Yala is not integrated with Kamino's lending products, and wallet addresses starting with AyCJS5 are unrelated to Yala and its team. The team is focused on protecting user interests and Yala's long-term operation, and is assessing its funding needs and raising funds with law enforcement and funding partners. Due to the tight liquidity of the protocol and assets, this process will take time, and a clear solution, including a fund recovery path and next operational measures, is planned for release by December 15th.PANews reported on November 17th that Yala, a Bitcoin liquidity and native stablecoin project, released an update on the X platform regarding the recent liquidity issue of its YU token: On September 14th, 2025, an attacker used a temporary deployment key to create an unauthorized cross-chain bridge and withdrew 7.64 million USDC (approximately 1636 ETH), causing YU to temporarily become unpegged.

Yala released a report analyzing the liquidity incident involving its YU token and plans to determine a clear recovery path and other solutions by December 15th.

Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

The post Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto assets send conflicting signals ahead of the Federal Reserve’s September rate decision. On-chain data reveals a clear decrease in Bitcoin and Ethereum flowing into centralized exchanges, but a sharp increase in altcoin inflows. The findings come from a Tuesday report by CryptoQuant, an on-chain data platform. The firm’s data shows a stark divergence in coin volume, which has been observed in movements onto centralized exchanges over the past few weeks. Bitcoin and Ethereum Inflows Drop to Multi-Month Lows Sponsored Sponsored Bitcoin has seen a dramatic drop in exchange inflows, with the 7-day moving average plummeting to 25,000 BTC, its lowest level in over a year. The average deposit per transaction has fallen to 0.57 BTC as of September. This suggests that smaller retail investors, rather than large-scale whales, are responsible for the recent cash-outs. Ethereum is showing a similar trend, with its daily exchange inflows decreasing to a two-month low. CryptoQuant reported that the 7-day moving average for ETH deposits on exchanges is around 783,000 ETH, the lowest in two months. Other Altcoins See Renewed Selling Pressure In contrast, other altcoin deposit activity on exchanges has surged. The number of altcoin deposit transactions on centralized exchanges was quite steady in May and June of this year, maintaining a 7-day moving average of about 20,000 to 30,000. Recently, however, that figure has jumped to 55,000 transactions. Altcoins: Exchange Inflow Transaction Count. Source: CryptoQuant CryptoQuant projects that altcoins, given their increased inflow activity, could face relatively higher selling pressure compared to BTC and ETH. Meanwhile, the balance of stablecoins on exchanges—a key indicator of potential buying pressure—has increased significantly. The report notes that the exchange USDT balance, around $273 million in April, grew to $379 million by August 31, marking a new yearly high. CryptoQuant interprets this surge as a reflection of…
