According to a report, over 80% of interviewed institutional investors plan to boost their crypto allocations in 2025.

A Coinbase and EY-Parthenon report revealed that 83% of institutional investors plan to increase their crypto allocations in 2025.
Almost 75% of institutions hold cryptocurrencies beyond BTC and ETH, with many planning to allocate at least 5% of their portfolios to crypto.
The report is based on 350 institutional investor interviews, and it pointed out that XRP and Solana as the most popular altcoins among large financial firms.

BNB Chain-based meme coin launch platform Four.Meme resumed operations after it was hit with a sandwich attack.

The platform reinstated its launch function on March 18 after addressing the security issue that led to the attack.
The Four.Meme team conducted a thorough security inspection, fixed the issue, and announced compensation for the affected users.
Web3 security firm ExVul reported that the exploit involved a sandwich attack, where the attacker manipulated the liquidity pool and bypassed token transfer restrictions.

The change to Vaulta is tentatively scheduled for the end of May and will include a new token and advisory group.

EOS Network was originally launched in 2018, and rebranded as Vaulta to focus to Web3 banking.
The EOS token will be replaced by the Vaulta Token, which will trade on nearly 140 exchanges, with a swap portal launching in May.
Vaulta inherits EOS Network’s infrastructure, including integration with Bitcoin-based banking solution exSat and partnerships with Ceffu, Spirit Blockchain, and Blockchain Insurance Inc.

An attacker exploited the dashboard of the AI-powered crypto bot aixbt, and transferred 55.5 ETH.

The operator of aixbt confirmed on March 18 that the AI bot itself was not compromised, but an attacker gained unauthorized access to its dashboard and issued fund transfer commands.
In response, the team migrated servers, changed access keys, paused dashboard functions for security upgrades, and reported the hacker’s addresses to exchanges.
Some people initially believed that the AI autonomously "tipped" the attacker, which was fueled by a post from Simulacrum AI suggesting that 55.5 ETH was sent to the now-suspended account “0xhungusman.”
