Lending

Lending protocols form the backbone of the decentralized money market, allowing users to lend or borrow digital assets without intermediaries. Using smart contracts, platforms like Aave and Morpho automate interest rates based on supply and demand while requiring over-collateralization for security. The 2026 lending landscape features advanced permissionless vaults and institutional-grade credit lines. This tag covers the evolution of capital efficiency, liquidations, and the integration of diverse collateral types, including LSTs and tokenized RWAs.

$3.8B fund tokenized on BNB marks China’s boldest RWA move yet

$3.8B fund tokenized on BNB marks China’s boldest RWA move yet

The post $3.8B fund tokenized on BNB marks China’s boldest RWA move yet appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. CMB International Asset Management tokenized the CMB International USD Money Market Fund on BNB Chain through the CMBMINT and CMBIMINT tokens on Oct. 15. The fund manages over $3.8 billion and ranked first among Asia-Pacific money market peers in Bloomberg’s performance rankings as of October 2025. Launched in 2024, the fund invests at least 70% of its net asset value in US dollar-denominated short-term deposits and high-quality instruments issued by governments, quasi-governmental entities, and top-tier financial institutions. Through tokenization, accredited investors can subscribe using fiat or stablecoins and redeem their holdings in real-time via DigiFT’s liquidity management smart contracts, supported by infrastructure provider OnChain. Adam Bai, head of CMB International Asset Management, said BNB Chain’s infrastructure enables the firm to “securely and compliantly extend our money market strategies to a broader global investor base.” BNB Chain’s RWA ecosystem comprises issuance partners, including Franklin Templeton, Ondo, Securitize, Backed, OpenEden, and Asseto. Among the financial assets issued on the network are Circle’s USYC, VBill, Benji, and Cash+. The CMBMINT and CMBIMINT tokens will integrate with the Venus Protocol and ListaDAO, enabling investors to use them as collateral for lending or in yield strategies. Sarah, head of business development at BNB Chain, called the collaboration “another milestone in our RWA journey,” adding that it reinforces BNB Chain’s vision to become the tokenization layer for all assets. Regulatory context On Sept. 23, Reuters reported that China’s securities watchdog advised some local brokerages to pause their RWA tokenization business in Hong Kong. At least two leading brokerages received informal guidance from the China Securities Regulatory Commission to refrain from conducting RWA business outside China. Shares in top Chinese brokerages listed in Hong Kong, including Guotai Junan International and GF Securities, fell between 2% and 7.25% on the news. Hong Kong’s Financial Services, the Treasury Bureau,…

There is a $200K Bug Hunt for XRPL’s New Institutional Lending Protocol

There is a $200K Bug Hunt for XRPL’s New Institutional Lending Protocol

The post There is a $200K Bug Hunt for XRPL’s New Institutional Lending Protocol appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Fintech company Ripple is partnering with security platform Immunefi for an upcoming “Attackathon” event, designed to put a new decentralized finance protocol on the XRPL through rigorous testing. The event will offer $200,000 in rewards to participants who help identify vulnerabilities in the proposed XRPL Lending Protocol, a new system designed to bring fixed-term, uncollateralized loans to the XRP Ledger. Attackathon, which runs from Oct. 27 to Nov. 29, will invite white-hat hackers and security researchers to probe the codebase and report vulnerabilities before the protocol goes live. Ripple will offer full educational support through an “Attackathon Academy,” including walkthroughs and Devnet environments, to help researchers get familiar with XRPL’s architecture. The learning stage runs from Oct. 13 to Oct. 27. Following this, the bug hunting competition starts Oct. 27 and continues through November, giving researchers ample time to thoroughly examine the protocol. If a valid exploit is found, the entire reward pool unlocks. If not, $30,000 will be distributed to participants who contribute meaningful findings. The XRPL Lending Protocol, governed under XLS-66, takes a different path from typical DeFi models. There are no smart contracts, wrapped assets, or on-chain collateral. Instead, creditworthiness is assessed off-chain, which allows financial institutions to apply their own risk models, while funds and repayments are recorded directly on the ledger. It is an approach Ripple is pitching as a bridge between traditional credit markets and on-chain finance, offering transparency while keeping regulatory guardrails intact. Institutions that need collateralized structures can still manage those through licensed custodians or tri-party agreements, with the protocol acting as the execution layer. Researchers will focus on vulnerabilities that could threaten fund safety or protocol solvency. In-scope targets include vault logic, liquidation and interest calculations, and permissioned access controls. Bugs must be reproducible and come with working proof-of-concepts to qualify.…

Ethereum briefly hosts $300 trillion PYUSD mint blunder by Paxos

Ethereum briefly hosts $300 trillion PYUSD mint blunder by Paxos

The post Ethereum briefly hosts $300 trillion PYUSD mint blunder by Paxos appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. For a few surreal moments on Oct. 15, the Ethereum blockchain seemed to host the financial equivalent of a dream. Paxos, the issuer behind PayPal’s stablecoin PYUSD, accidentally minted $300 trillion worth of tokens, which is roughly 300 times the global GDP, before burning them just as fast. The minting, visible on Ethereum’s public ledger, sent analysts, traders, and bots into overdrive. Within minutes, Paxos confirmed the incident resulted from an internal operational error, not a hack. The firm said no user funds were impacted. Still, the sheer number involved in the mistake made “PYUSD” the most discussed coin in crypto for 24 hours straight. Blockchain analytics firm Santiment reported thousands of mentions per minute as social media reacted in disbelief. Paypal PYUSD Dominates Social Media Mentions (Source: Santiment) What happened? Blockchain security firm Quill Audits traced the mishap to the token’s contract structure. According to the security firm, the PYUSD contract gave one externally owned address (EOA) unrestricted minting and burning rights with no rate limits, amount caps, or multi-party approvals. It added that the single key executed three transactions in quick succession: minting $300 trillion PYUSD, burning it, and then minting another $300 billion. Considering this, Quill Audits concluded that: “This suggests a backend system bug or a catastrophic human error— or all two.” Meanwhile, Sam Ramirez, lead engineer at Argentum, suggested that Paxos initially meant to transfer 300 million PYUSD between wallets but mistakenly burned it. According to him, the attempt to restore those tokens allegedly resulted in the 300-trillion overmint. Paypal PYUSD Stablecoin Mints (Source: Ramirez/X) Lessons? The Paxos mistake might have been harmless, but its implications aren’t. Over $300 billion in stablecoins now circulate globally, moving billions daily across Ethereum, Solana, and Tron. At that scale, even a single automation error could cascade through decentralized…
