The BNB Chain has released its weekly ecosystem report, detailing key metrics and developments from December 4 to 10, 2025. As part of its ongoing effort to maintain transparency and community engagement, the report highlights significant progress across various segments including DeFi, AI, and decentralized social networks.

BNB Chain Key Data Highlights

According to the report, BNB Chain’s Binance Smart Chain (BSC) reported an average of 2,442,565 daily active users (DAU), while opBNB recorded 1,698,500 DAU during the specified week. In terms of transactions, BSC facilitated 100,221,954 transactions, whereas opBNB managed 22,396,495 transactions. The total trading volume across the ecosystem reached $33.2 billion, with the total value locked (TVL) standing at $11 billion as of December 10.

Ecosystem Updates

During the Binance Blockchain Week, BNB Chain’s booth attracted numerous community members and partners, including PancakeSwap and Venus, fostering discussions and offering exclusive merchandise. Additionally, the BNB Hack event in Abu Dhabi witnessed participation from over 44 builder teams focusing on DeFi, AI, and other blockchain applications.

BNB Chain also introduced an upgraded Telegram support bot to enhance community interaction, with plans for Discord integration. The 0 Fee Carnival for USD1 and USDC transfers has been extended until December 31, allowing free transactions on supported platforms like Trust Wallet and Binance Web3 Wallet.

Developers are advised to transition from BSCScan to BSCTrace APIs via MegaNode due to the deprecation of BSCScan API support. Furthermore, the Block Access List (BAL) is now live on BSC, promising reduced execution latency and improved processing speed.

Node operators are encouraged to migrate from Erigon to Reth or Geth by December 31 to ensure seamless operation. Meanwhile, the community is invited to vote on the BEP-341 proposal aimed at reducing TurnLength from 16 to 8, which is expected to enhance network stability.

Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO

Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO

The post Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Aave DAO is gearing up for a significant overhaul by shutting down over 50% of underperforming L2 instances. It is also restructuring its governance framework and deploying over $100 million to boost GHO. This could be a pivotal moment that propels Aave back to the forefront of on-chain lending or sparks unprecedented controversy within the DeFi community. Sponsored Sponsored ACI Proposes Shutting Down 50% of L2s The “State of the Union” report by the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI) paints a candid picture. After a turbulent period in the DeFi market and internal challenges, Aave (AAVE) now leads in key metrics: TVL, revenue, market share, and borrowing volume. Aave’s annual revenue of $130 million surpasses the combined cash reserves of its competitors. Tokenomics improvements and the AAVE token buyback program have also contributed to the ecosystem’s growth. Aave global metrics. Source: Aave However, the ACI’s report also highlights several pain points. First, regarding the Layer-2 (L2) strategy. While Aave’s L2 strategy was once a key driver of success, it is no longer fit for purpose. Over half of Aave’s instances on L2s and alt-L1s are not economically viable. Based on year-to-date data, over 86.6% of Aave’s revenue comes from the mainnet, indicating that everything else is a side quest. On this basis, ACI proposes closing underperforming networks. The DAO should invest in key networks with significant differentiators. Second, ACI is pushing for a complete overhaul of the “friendly fork” framework, as most have been unimpressive regarding TVL and revenue. In some cases, attackers have exploited them to Aave’s detriment, as seen with Spark.

Third, the instance model, once a smart…

Shytoshi Kusama Addresses $2.4 Million Shibarium Bridge Exploit

Shytoshi Kusama Addresses $2.4 Million Shibarium Bridge Exploit

The post Shytoshi Kusama Addresses $2.4 Million Shibarium Bridge Exploit appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The lead developer of Shiba Inu, Shytoshi Kusama, has publicly addressed the Shibarium bridge exploit that occurred recently, draining $2.4 million from the network. After days of speculation about his involvement in managing the crisis, the project leader broke his silence. Kusama emphasized that a special “war room” has been set up to restore stolen finances and enhance network security. The statement is his first official words since the bridge compromise occurred. “Although I am focusing on AI initiatives to benefit all our tokens, I remain with the developers and leadership in the war room,” Kusama posted on social media platform X. He dismissed claims that he had distanced himself from the project as “utterly preposterous.” The developer said that the reason behind his silence at first was strategic. Before he could make any statements publicly, he must have taken time to evaluate what he termed a complex and deep situation properly. Kusama also vowed to provide further updates in the official Shiba Inu channels as the team comes up with long-term solutions. As highlighted in our previous article, targeted Shibarium’s bridge infrastructure through a sophisticated attack vector. Hackers gained unauthorized access to validator signing keys, compromising the network’s security framework. The hackers executed a flash loan to acquire 4.6 million BONE ShibaSwap tokens. The validator power on the network was majority held by them after this purchase. They were able to transfer assets out of Shibarium with this control. The response of Shibarium developers was timely to limit the breach. They instantly halted all validator functions in order to avoid additional exploitation. The team proceeded to deposit the assets under staking in a multisig hardware wallet that is secure. External security companies were involved in the investigation effort. Hexens, Seal 911, and PeckShield are collaborating with internal developers to…
