PANews reported on November 5th that the Berachain Foundation announced early this morning that approximately $12.8 million in funds stolen from the BEX/Balancer V2 vulnerability has been fully recovered and returned to the foundation's deployed wallet. The team expressed gratitude to the white-hat hackers who assisted in recovering the funds and plans to remove the malicious label from their addresses, and is considering awarding a bounty as a token of appreciation. Currently, all BEX functions (including exchange, withdrawal, deposit, etc.) remain restricted, while the minting and redemption of HONEY have resumed. Due to the suspension of BGT and incentive distribution over the past 24 hours, on-chain APR displays may show anomalies. Regarding the allocation of affected funds, the Berachain core team is developing a system to attribute and distribute them to the original user addresses one by one. BEX deposits unaffected by the vulnerability are currently also inaccessible; the team stated this is out of an abundance of caution and they are closely monitoring Balancer's follow-up investigation to ensure all user funds are safely returned as soon as possible.PANews reported on November 5th that the Berachain Foundation announced early this morning that approximately $12.8 million in funds stolen from the BEX/Balancer V2 vulnerability has been fully recovered and returned to the foundation's deployed wallet.

U.S. Fed’s Miran Says Policy Needs to Adjust to Stablecoin Boom That Could Reach $3T
The post U.S. Fed’s Miran Says Policy Needs to Adjust to Stablecoin Boom That Could Reach $3T appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. U.S. Federal Reserve Governor Stephan Miran, the newest member of the board of governors after his recent confirmation, pointed a spotlight on stablecoins and the potential that their explosive growth — especially by foreign users — will have heavy consequences for monetary policy. “Stablecoins may become a multitrillion dollar elephant in the room for central bankers,” Miran said in a Friday speech in New York. He said that Fed staff projects “uptake reaching between $1 trillion and $3 trillion by the end of the decade.” “In total, under $7 trillion in Treasury bills are outstanding today,” he said. “If these forecasts prove accurate, the magnitude of additional demand from stablecoins will be too large to ignore. Miran, who was an economic official in President Donald Trump’s administration before he joined the Fed, said he thinks it’s unlikely that stablecoins will be the drain on U.S. bank deposits that the bankers are keenly concerned about, arguing that the new stablecoin law — the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins Act (GENIUS) Act — doesn’t directly allow for yield. “I therefore expect most demand for stablecoins to come from locales unable to access dollar-denominated saving instruments, boosting demand for dollar assets,” he said at the BCVC Summit 2025. “If a global stablecoin glut is driven by flows out of foreign currencies and into the U.S. dollar, it will, all else equal, make the dollar stronger,” Miran said. “Depending on the strength of this effect relative to other forces affecting the Fed’s price-stability and maximum-employment mandates, that might be something that monetary policy reacts to.” Stablecoins are the dollar-tied tokens that the crypto sector relies on as a steady component of trades and contracts, and their issuers — such as Tether with its USDT and Circle with its USDC — are…
