Ondo Finance, a leader in tokenizing real-world assets, today announced the launch of the Ondo Bridge in collaboration with LayerZero.

This bridging solution enables seamless cross-chain transfers of Ondo's tokenized stocks and ETFs, while allowing over 2,600 protocols, wallets, and applications integrated with LayerZero to easily add Ondo global market assets.

The Ondo Bridge is now live on Ethereum and BNB Chain, with plans to support additional EVM chains in the future. It is the largest tokenized securities bridge, supporting over 100 stocks and ETFs.

Cross-chain capabilities provide DeFi applications with broader liquidity and more flexible usage options, while maintaining the reliability and predictability expected of institutional-grade real-world assets.

Key Features:

Rapid Deployment to New Chains: The Ondo Bridge can connect to other EVM chains within weeks.
Single Path for All Assets: All Ondo global market assets can now be bridged across EVM networks through LayerZero's standardized framework.
Built for Scale: The architecture simplifies operations and is designed to support the flow of hundreds of assets across multiple chains.

"Now is the perfect time for Ondo Global Markets to rapidly expand within the multi-chain economy," said Ian De Bode, President of Ondo Finance. "We are accelerating the creation of advanced cross-chain use cases and embedding Ondo tokenized stocks as foundational DeFi assets."

"Tokenized assets are quickly becoming a better version of all existing assets in traditional markets: more transparent, more programmable, and capable of moving at internet speed and certainty," said Bryan Pellegrino, CEO of LayerZero Labs. "We are thrilled to support Ondo in bringing the next generation of financial assets on-chain and making them widely accessible within the global crypto economy."

Since its launch on Ethereum in September, Ondo Global Markets has become the world's largest tokenized securities platform, with a total value locked exceeding $400 million and trading volume surpassing $2 billion. The platform recently expanded to BNB Chain, providing the network's 3.4 million daily active users with access to on-chain securities.

$292 Million KelpDAO Cross-Chain Bridge Hack: Who Should Foot the Bill?

On April 18, 2026, an attacker stole 116,500 rsETH (worth ~$292M) from KelpDAO’s cross-chain bridge in 46 minutes—the largest DeFi exploit of 2026. The stolen assets were deposited into Aave V3 as collateral, causing $177–200M in bad debt and triggering a cascade of losses across nine DeFi protocols. Aave’s TVL dropped by ~$6B overnight. This legal analysis argues that KelpDAO and LayerZero Labs share concurrent liability, with fault apportioned 60%/40%. KelpDAO negligently configured its bridge with a 1-of-1 decentralized verifier network (DVN)—a single point of failure—despite LayerZero’s explicit recommendation of a 2-of-3 setup. LayerZero, which operated the compromised DVN, failed to secure its RPC infrastructure against a known poisoning attack vector. Both protocols’ terms of service cap liability at $200 (KelpDAO) or $50 (LayerZero), but these limits are likely unenforceable due to unconscionability, gross negligence exceptions, and potential securities law invalidation (if rsETH is deemed a security under the Howey test). Aave’s governance also faces fiduciary duty claims for raising rsETH’s loan-to-value ratio to 93%—far above competitors’ 72–75%—without adequately assessing bridge risks, amplifying the systemic fallout. Practical recovery targets include LayerZero Labs (a registered Canadian entity), KelpDAO’s founders, auditors, and identifiable Aave governance delegates. The incident underscores escalating legal risks for DeFi protocols, infrastructure providers, and governance participants.

Insider Trading in War: 5 People Involved, the Highest Earner Was Arrested

On April 24, the U.S. Department of Justice arrested U.S. Army Special Forces Staff Sergeant Gannon Ken Van Dyke for insider trading related to the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on January 3. Van Dyke allegedly profited over $400,000 by placing bets on a prediction market, Polymarket, using insider knowledge of the covert operation. According to the indictment, Van Dyke registered an account (0x31a5) on December 26 and made a series of bets predicting Maduro’s capture and U.S. military involvement in Venezuela. He withdrew most of his funds on the day of the operation and attempted to obscure his tracks by transferring assets through crypto and brokerage accounts. This case marks the first time the DOJ has prosecuted insider trading on Polymarket. PolyBeats had previously identified five suspicious accounts, including Van Dyke’s—the highest earner—in January. The other accounts, with profits ranging from $34,000 to $145,000, remain under unofficial scrutiny but have not been charged. Their lower profits, indirect access to information, and unclear legal boundaries may complicate prosecution. Polymarket has since strengthened its market integrity rules, explicitly prohibiting trading based on confidential or insider information. Van Dyke’s arrest, nearly four months after his trades, signals increased regulatory attention and the persistent traceability of blockchain-based transactions.

Bitcoin HODLing Intensifies: LTH Supply Jumps 303,000 BTC

Bitcoin long-term holders (LTHs), defined as investors holding coins for over 155 days, have significantly increased their supply by 303,500 BTC over the past month, indicating a shift toward HODLing behavior. This contrasts with the net distribution observed in late 2025. Meanwhile, short-term holders and spot ETFs have seen reduced supply. However, the recent price rally to around $77,600 is primarily driven by futures market demand, not spot buying—a pattern to January's short-lived surge. Analysts warn of potential corrections if profit-taking occurs amid weak spot demand.

Bitwise: Bullish on Bitcoin's Performance in the Second Half of the Year, AI and Regulation Will Spark a New Altcoin Season

Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan and Research Lead Ryan Rasmussen express strong bullish sentiment on Bitcoin's long-term prospects, suggesting that its $1 million price target may be too conservative. They argue Bitcoin serves a dual role: as digital gold and a potential global settlement asset, especially amid declining trust in traditional monetary systems. Despite a weak Q1 2026 where nearly all crypto assets and prices saw double-digit declines, the analysts remain optimistic due to strong forward-looking catalysts, including institutional adoption via Bitcoin ETFs from major firms like Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs. Geopolitical instability, such as Iran’s mention of using Bitcoin for international payments, increases the value of Bitcoin’s “out-of-the-money call option” as a non-political, global settlement currency. This enhances its appeal beyond a mere store of value. . Additionally, Hougan highlights that a clearer regulatory token framework under current SEC leadership, combined with AI efficiency gains and high-performance blockchains, could fuel a new “altseason” by late 2026. This may lead to a wave of legitimate, value-capturing token projects, unlike the earlier ICO boom. . Bitwise also announced an Avalanche ETF, citing its unique architecture and rapid growth in real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, which has surged 10x to nearly $30 billion in two years. The firm believes Layer 1 blockchains are still early in their growth cycle, with significant potential ahead.

Bitcoin Rally To Near $80K Fuels Sharp Sentiment Rebound Across Crypto Markets

Bitcoin's recent rally towards $80,000 has driven a significant rebound in crypto market sentiment, with the Fear & Greed Index jumping 14 points to 46—its highest level since January. Analysts note that over 300,000 BTC have shifted from short-term to long-term holders in the past month, signaling stronger investor conviction. However, the rally appears largely driven by perpetual futures speculation rather than spot market demand, raising concerns about sustainability. Retail participation also remains subdued, limiting further sentiment gains. While entities like Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) continue accumulating BTC, weak spot interest could lead to a price correction if profit-taking occurs.
