April 2026 made that brutally clear: $635 million lost 28 separate incidents 30 days That's not “volatility.” That's not “just the cost of innovation.” That's not “users should have known better.” That's a system-wide failure to build, require, and enforce basic safety controls before real people are exposed to real losses. The reported April incidents included: Apr 1 — Drift — $285M Apr 3 — Silo V2 —...]]></description><link>https://www.blockchainunmasked.com/post/crypto-is-a-car-with-no-brakes</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69f388ba90b4365cb85da63b</guid><pubDate>Thu, 30 Apr 2026 16:54:45 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/1205ac_7843f0804112424a80658aab7e6886aa~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_628,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Blockchain Unmasked</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[THORChain’s “Neutrality” Defense Fails on Its Own Terms]]></title><description><![CDATA[More on the “can we” vs. “should we” interdict topic.

Neutrality is the absence of meaningful discretion. And that is exactly where THORChain’s public defense starts to fall apart. After the $1.5 billion Bybit theft, the FBI did not treat DeFi infrastructure as powerless bystanders.

A lot of people are saying "Aave broke" but precision matters...]]></description><link>https://www.blockchainunmasked.com/post/kelp-dao-hack-aave-the-assumption-stack-broke</link><guid
