Hyperliquid and Phantom jointly recommend that CFTC update DeFi regulations

On 10 July, Hyperliquid submitted a joint submission with the non-hosting wallet Phantom to the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) calling for an update of the regulatory rules for chain-based trading infrastructure. It was considered that the existing CFTC rules were designed for a traditional financial system that relied on centralized intermediaries and did not apply to DeFi, and it was suggested that it should be made clear that the development chain trading protocol software did not need to be registered as an exchange or a clearing house, and that the non-trust wallet front end did not need to be registered as an introduction broker, while allowing the regulated agency to use block chains for trading and clearing operations. Previously, in June, CFTC and the US SEC had jointly published a consultation draft for industry on regulatory rules affecting financial innovation。

Immunefi: The number of hacking incidents in the encryption industry was high in the first half of 2026, with a loss of approximately $972 million Dollar

On 10 July, the Immunefi report showed that the encryption project had accumulated losses of approximately $972 million in the first half of 2026 as a result of 207 hacker attacks. Although the number of attacks had reached an all-time high, the total loss remained below $1 billion and less than half the scale of the damage in the first half of 2025. The report states that the loss from attacks in the DeFi area has fallen by 74 per cent from the peak of US$ 26.62 billion in 2022 to about US$ 680.3 million, and by 75 per cent over the same period in the medium to single losses. Immunefi argues that this decline is related to continued security coverage, the leakage reward scheme, the audit competition and the early detection of loopholes by more researchers. In addition, the source of risk is shifting from simple smart contracting loopholes to infrastructure failures, private key leaks, cross-chain configuration errors and privileged access to weak points。

Ethereum Foundation tested the ETH network using AI proxy red team and discovered real loopholes

On July 10th, Etheum Foundation Production Security team researchers stated in Thursday's blog article that a series of AI agents had been deployed to test the software on which Etheum relied, searching for loopholes in encryption systems, protocol codes and smart contracts. A lacuna discovered by AI included the point-to-point point-to-point problem in libp2p Gossipsub, which could be remotely triggered, which had been repaired and disclosed in Github as CVE-2026-34219. According to the researchers, AI agents were organized as specialized roles in reconnaissance, search, filling and validation for potential attack paths, recovery failures and verification of their applicability to production codes. According to Egypt Foundation, AI did not replace the Security Fellow, but changed the way it works, allowing teams to cover far more than manual reviews, but required researchers to make a more careful judgement of the many seemingly credible findings。

Trump's recommence of his concern over Iran's anti-RDR stalling mid-term elections

On 10 July, according to Politico, the ceasefire was terminated because Iran continued to attack vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. Subsequently, United States forces attacked at least 170 Iranian military targets within 48 hours, while Iran responded to United States military bases. Some Republican parliamentarians feared that the escalation of the conflict would push up oil prices, increase economic pressure and affect the mid-year elections this year. A Republican member of the House of Representatives put it bluntly: “He is pushing us towards political destruction”. According to the parliamentarian, Trump was more concerned about Iran than about the Republican electoral situation. Republican Eagles supported the continuation of military operations. Congressman Don Bacon stated that the United States should continue to respond strongly to Iran until it sought peace. Some Republicans, however, warned that rising oil prices could weaken voter support and make it difficult for Republicans to respond to the most important price concerns of the population. At the same time, Congress has asked the Government to indicate plans for the use of $67 billion in additional war funds。
