Kula has announced that its native governance token, $KULA, is now listed on Kraken, one of the world’s most trusted and established digital asset exchanges. Trading begins today, marking a major milestone in expanding global access to Kula’s decentralised impact investment platform. The $KULA token underpins governance within the Kula DAO community, allowing token holders to vote on treasury management, capital allocation, and overall strategic direction.

Built on Avalanche, $KULA enables community-driven governance over global real-world initiatives. Kula has deployed capital into seven projects around the world representing more than $50 million in underlying asset value, including:

  • Development of a limestone concession in Zambia
  • Large-scale hydropower development in Nepal
  • Support for Enzi’s electric mobility platform across East Africa

“Kula was designed to make previously inaccessible assets investible while empowering communities to participate in the governance of the resources that shape their futures,” said Paul Jackson, CEO of Kula. “From agriculture and water at the community level to hydropower in Nepal and electric mobility infrastructure in East Africa, these are sectors traditional finance often overlooks. Kraken’s listing extends our model to a global audience and highlights the potential of decentralised stewardship in real-world applications.”

Kula combines blockchain-based governance with legally compliant operational entities to ensure scalability across emerging markets. Since inception, Kula has raised $25 million from aligned partners to support its mission. For communities, it restores governance over local assets and ensures that economic value stays with the people who generate it. For investors, it provides a transparent, decentralised framework for accessing high-impact opportunities in markets traditionally viewed as high-risk, supported by structured decision-making and on-chain accountability.

Kula’s listing on Kraken represents a significant step toward scaling community-driven investment models across global markets. By pairing blockchain governance with real-world assets, Kula aims to demonstrate how decentralised capital formation can support resilient, locally grounded economic growth.

Bitcoin Withdrawals Continue: 8 Years of Storage in a Coldcard Cold Wallet Ended in Zero

Coldcard Hardware Wallet Hacked: Losses Mount Due to Vulnerable Seed Generation A critical vulnerability in Coldcard hardware wallets has led to a continued wave of fund thefts. According to Galaxy Research, the total stolen has reached 1,367.05 BTC (approx. $88.6 million) from 4,585 addresses, a significant increase from the initial 594.5 BTC reported on July 30, 2026. Most of the stolen funds remain on the attackers' addresses. The issue is not with the current firmware, which Coinkite has updated, but with seed phrases generated on vulnerable devices between March 2021 and the release of fixed firmware versions. Due to a programmer error, devices switched from using a hardware random number generator to the software-based Yasmarang generator, which was initialized with publicly accessible data like the chip's serial number. This made the seed phrases predictable through offline brute-force attacks, meaning wallets remain at risk until funds are moved to a new wallet generated with the patched firmware. Affected devices include Mk2/Mk3 with firmware 4.0.1–4.1.9 (and up to 5.0.3), Mk4/Mk5 up to version 5.6.0, and Q models up to 1.5.0Q. The only exceptions are seeds created with a high-entropy method like at least 50 independent dice rolls or a strong unique BIP-39 passphrase. All other owners must generate a new seed on the fixed firmware and transfer their assets. A case highlighting the human impact involves a 39-year-old long-term investor who lost 2 BTC (approx. $130,000) in minutes. He had accumulated the Bitcoin over eight years through physical labor, viewing it as a financial lifeline and a retirement plan in a country suffering from hyperinflation. His story underscores that even conservative "buy and hold in cold storage" strategies can be compromised by such underlying technical flaws. From a technical perspective, this incident echoes historical failures where weak random number generators undermined cryptographic security, challenging the assumption that offline storage is automatically foolproof.
