Ostium DeFi exploit

July 15, Ostium suffered a $24M exploit via manipulated price data from an authorized oracle. Attackers used performUpkeep to submit future-timestamped data, triggering false profits and draining liquidity pools.

Short, Calm, & Contrarian

The charts look red, but the macro foundation hasn't changed a bit.

While retail panics over short term liquidations, long term spot buyers are licking their chops. We just retraced straight into a massive demand zone.

Blood in the streets is a buy signal. Load up, log off, and let the network do its thing.

Tensions Escalate as Iran Claims Retaliatory Strikes on US Assets in Jordan

The conflict between Washington and Tehran intensified today as Iran's Revolutionary Guards claimed responsibility for a drone and missile barrage targeting US aircraft and facilities in Jordan. Tehran described the operation as direct retaliation for recent overnight US airstrikes. While the IRGC claims to have heavily damaged US hangars and refueling aircraft, Jordan's armed forces have rejected the narrative, reporting that they successfully intercepted the majority of the incoming projectiles.

$NATGAS giving us a textbook reload opportunity. 🔥

We’ve pulled back directly into the previous consolidation breakout zone around $2.80. This is exactly where macro buyers love to step in to form a major higher low.

As long as this region holds, the macro uptrend is fully intact. Eyes on the reversal candle to target a run back to $3.39.

$TEL is coiling like a spring at the bottom of the range. ⚡


We are sitting right at the $0.00197 support level. Look at those historical wicks every single time sellers try to push TEL below $0.0020, aggressive limit buyers step in and absorb the supply instantly.


Technical Highlights:

• Clear rounding structure signaling the end of the markdown phase.

• MACD is deeply suppressed and practically begging for a bullish crossover.

• Selling volume has completely flatlined, meaning it takes very little buying pressure to send this higher.


Positioning yourself before the volume returns is how you catch the big moves.


🎯 Targets: $0.00238 & $0.00312

🛡️ Invalidation: Clean break below $0.00190

🥷 The ResolvLabs attacker is on the move again. After stealing ~$25.9M in March, they’ve resumed moving funds. In the past few hours alone, 580 $ETH (~$1.09M) has been transferred and is actively being routed through mixers. #hack

Heads up, everyone: I've deleted my last post. It turns out the 100% utilization was the result of an exploit, not a standard pool state. Please do not interact with it—protecting your funds is the priority.
