British wage growth showed signs of cooling, though not as sharply as analysts had anticipated, according to the latest data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS). Regular pay, which excludes bonuses, rose by 3.6% annually in the three months leading up to February. This figure came in slightly above economists’ expectations of 3.5%, but still marked a decline from the previous month’s 3.8%, signaling a gradual slowdown in earnings growth across the UK labor market.The softer pace of wage increases reflects a broader trend of weakening hiring activity that had already begun to concern the Bank of England (BoE) before geopolitical tensions escalated. Policymakers had been closely monitoring signs of economic fragility, particularly as businesses became more cautious about recruitment amid uncertain growth prospects.However, the economic landscape shifted following the outbreak of conflict in the Middle East at the end of February. The resulting surge in global energy prices has introduced fresh inflationary pressures, complicating the BoE’s monetary policy strategy. Rising energy costs are expected to feed into consumer prices, potentially prolonging the period of elevated inflation in the UK.As a result, many economists have revised their forecasts for interest rate cuts, pushing back expectations for when the central bank might begin easing borrowing costs. While weaker wage growth typically reduces inflationary risks, the external shock from energy markets has offset some of that effect.Bank of England officials have indicated that the subdued economic environment could limit workers’ ability to negotiate higher pay, even as inflation rises. This dynamic may further dampen consumer spending and economic momentum in the months ahead. Overall, the combination of slowing wage growth, persistent inflation, and geopolitical uncertainty presents a co

Now, consider this.

Per CryptoQuant, Whale to Exchange Transactions have spiked repeatedly. Flows recently jumped above 40,000 and, at past extremes, neared 60,000.

Those bursts came alongside price slides. Large holders may be moving tokens to exchanges to distribute.

All of this is stash that’s ready to sell, making rebounds more difficult. Furthermore, rallies frequently encounter resistance as large holders use their strength to exit positions.

Aave TVL Plunges $9B Within 48 Hours Amid KelpDAO’s Exploit
A sharp liquidity shock has hit the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem, with Aave alone losing nearly $9 billion in TVL in just 48 hours. 

The disruption, triggered by an exploit linked to KelpDAO, quickly cascaded across the ecosystem. As a result, total DeFi TVL plunged by more than $13 billion, falling from roughly $99.49 billion to $85.80 billion.

Key Points 

Aave lost nearly $9 billion in total value locked (TVL) within 48 hours following an exploit involving KelpDAO. 

Large investors and institutions, including MEXC and Abraxas Capital, were behind these withdrawals. 

Total DeFi TVL dropped by over $13 billion, falling from about $99.49 billion to $85.80 billion. 

AAVE’s price also reflected the decline, plunging 5% over the past week to $92.

North Korea’s crypto heist playbook is expanding and DeFi keeps getting hit


Less than three weeks after North Korea-linked hackers used social engineering to hit crypto trading firm Drift, hackers tied to the nation appear to have pulled off another major exploit with Kelp.

The attack on Kelp, a restaking protocol tied into LayerZero’s cross-chain infrastructure, suggests an evolution in how North Korea-linked hackers operate, not just looking for bugs or stolen credentials, but exploiting the basic assumptions built into decentralized systems.

Taken together, the two incidents point to something more organized than a string of one-off hacks, as North Korea continues to escalate its efforts to hijack funds from the crypto sector.

“This is not a series of incidents; it is a cadence,” said Alexander Urbelis, chief information security officer and general counsel at ENS Labs. “You cannot patch your way out of a procurement schedule.”

More than $500 million was siphoned across the Drift and Kelp exploits in just over two weeks.

How Kelp was breached

At its core, the Kelp exploit did not involve breaking encryption or cracking keys. The system actually worked the way it was designed to. Rather, attackers manipulated the data feeding into the system and forced it to rely on those compromised inputs, causing it to approve transactions that never actually occurred.

“The security failure is simple: a signed lie is still a lie,” Urbelis said. “Signatures guarantee authorship; they do not guarantee truth.”

In simpler terms, the system checked who sent the message, not whether the message itself was correct. For security experts, that makes this less about a clever new hack and more about exploiting how the system was set up.

“This attack wasn’t about breaking cryptography,” said David Schwed, COO of blockchain security firm SVRN. “It was about exploiti
