According to The Block, the T3 Financial Crime Unit (T3 FCU), jointly established by Tether, TRON, and TRM Labs, announced that since its establishment in 2024, it has frozen over $450 million in illegal crypto assets globally.The unit intercepted illegal proceeds in 2025, with a year-on-year increase of 43.9%, covering 23 jurisdictions including the United States, Spain, and Germany, and was recognized by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) as "an important resource for global law enforcement agencies."T3 FCU has participated in various criminal investigations, including exchange hacks, North Korea-related activities, terrorist financing, and violent crime cases, and assisted the Brazilian Federal Police in freezing over $5.989 billion in assets, including 4.3 million USDT.

U.S. Judge Margaret M. Garnett in New York postponed the ruling on Aave's emergency application on Wednesday, which aims to unfreeze $71 million in ETH related to the Kelp DAO hacking incident, and requested both parties to submit supplemental briefs before the hearing on June 5. Aave is attempting to reclaim the $71 million in ETH frozen on Arbitrum to assist in the asset recovery efforts from this hacking incident—Kelp DAO suffered losses of up to $293 million from the hack, making it one of the most severe security incidents in the DeFi space this year.However, the U.S. law firm Gerstein Harrow LLP submitted a restraining order to the court in early May, claiming that its client has rights to the aforementioned funds. Aave then filed an emergency motion to lift the freeze, warning that if the funds are not released in a timely manner, it could lead to user liquidations and potentially impact the entire DeFi market. Judge Garnett noted in her ruling that Aave failed to adequately explain how user funds would incur "compound losses" if the restraining order remained in place. She also acknowledged the complexity of the case, the risks faced by the victims, and requested both parties to provide supplemental statements on six key issues, including: whether the hacking transaction is subject to New York state sanctuary principles, the legal distinctions between fraud and theft and what rights the hacker has over the stolen assets, which laws apply to determine the priority of claims for frozen assets, whether constructive trusts are an appropriate remedy, and whether Aave or Arbitrum can identify individual victims and proportionally return assets. Both parties must submit supplemental briefs by May 22.Meanwhile, the overall compensation work for Kelp DAO is progressing. Kelp and Aave announced on Tuesday that the rsETH held by the hacker has been destroyed on Arbitrum, and approximately $278 million in loss tokens will be restored within the next two weeks through the funds of the Aave Recovery Guardian multi-signature wallet. Once the relevant smart contracts are reactivated, all functions of rsETH will return to normal.

Aave DAO has initiated a governance proposal to establish a dedicated Bitcoin Spoke driven by the Babylon protocol in Aave V4, allowing users to use native BTC as collateral for lending without relying on wrapped BTC or centralized custody solutions.The proposal has been published on the Aave governance forum, seeking DAO approval to advance the integration and incorporate Babylon's native BTC into the V4 lending protocol's collateral assets. The proposal points out that Bitcoin is the largest crypto collateral base, but currently, most on-chain BTC lending relies on wrapped BTC variants, custodial intermediaries, or fragmented BTCfi platforms. The Aave V4 architecture will leverage Babylon's staking and validation infrastructure to provide a more direct native Bitcoin lending mechanism, integrating fragmented Bitcoin collateral lending into a unified protocol.

According to FinanceFeeds, the victim's lawyer from North Korea attempted to redefine the rsETH attack incident that occurred on Aave as "fraud" rather than "theft" before a hearing at the Manhattan federal court, in order to maintain a freeze order on assets worth $71 million in ETH.The lawyer argued that the attacker borrowed assets using worthless collateral and did not repay, which constitutes a fraudulent loan transaction, aiming to use these frozen assets to pay for terrorism judgment compensation under the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act.Previously, hackers associated with the Lazarus Group minted unsecured rsETH through a cross-chain bridge vulnerability and borrowed approximately $230 million in assets from Aave, of which $71 million was intercepted by Arbitrum developers. The victim's lawyer also questioned Aave's standing, pointing out that its terms of service state it does not have control over user assets. Additionally, DeFi United has raised $327 million, exceeding the amount in dispute.

According to Cointelegraph, Coinbase has been sued in a federal court in California, with the case involving frozen funds related to a $55 million DAI phishing theft.The plaintiffs claim that a portion of the traceable stolen funds flowed into Coinbase retail user accounts after being mixed through Tornado Cash and are currently still frozen; Coinbase stated that the assets can only be released after a court ruling on ownership.The lawsuit also states that the theft is related to the malicious wallet theft platform Inferno Drainer, and the victims had commissioned Zero Shadow and Five Stones Intelligence to track the flow of funds.

According to official news, Aave LLC has submitted an emergency motion requesting the withdrawal of the asset freeze notice issued to Arbitrum DAO on May 1, 2026. This notice attempts to seize approximately $71 million worth of ETH, which belongs to the victims of the attack on April 18.Aave stated that attackers do not gain legal ownership of stolen property merely by stealing it, as the law clearly stipulates. The assets being recovered are intended to be returned to users affected by the attack on April 18, 2026. Freezing these assets harms the users that the recovery efforts are supposed to protect.Aave has requested the court to hold an emergency hearing and temporarily lift the freeze order, while continuing to work with the Arbitrum community and DeFi United to compensate the affected users.

According to Cointelegraph, the U.S. law firm Gerstein Harrow LLP has applied to the court for an injunction to prevent Arbitrum DAO from transferring frozen Ethereum assets related to the Kelp attack.The law firm claims that its clients have obtained default judgments in three cases against North Korea, totaling approximately $877 million (including punitive damages and interest), and assert a right to claim the related assets.Previously, Kelp DAO was attacked on April 18, resulting in losses of about $292 million, which is believed to be related to the North Korean hacker group Lazarus Group. Subsequently, the Arbitrum security committee urgently froze approximately 30,766 Ether (about $73 million).The incident has sparked controversy. Some community members believe that if the injunction takes effect, it will delay the return of funds to the victimized users and shift the North Korean-related debts onto secondary victims. Previously, Aave Labs had proposed to unfreeze the funds and inject them into a compensation fund to restore the damaged assets.It is worth noting that Gerstein Harrow has previously filed claims regarding assets stolen by North Korean-related hackers and frozen by cryptocurrency platforms, including the 2023 Heco Bridge incident. Industry analysts believe that this case may have a demonstrative impact on the disposal of DAO assets and the definition of cross-jurisdictional claims.

MegaETH executive PaperImperium disclosed on platform X that documents from the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York show that the U.S. court has issued an injunction to Arbitrum DAO, prohibiting it from transferring approximately $71 million in ETH assets that were frozen during the KelpDAO hacking incident. The plaintiffs are attempting to use these funds to enforce unpaid judgment compensation related to North Korea's involvement in terrorism, kidnapping, and other cases over the years, and have applied to issue legal notice to Arbitrum DAO through alternative service, treating it as a "partnership organization" that can be held accountable.The court documents also indicate that Arbitrum DAO has a Security Council governed by ARB holders, which has the ability to take action in emergencies. Therefore, if relevant members refuse to cooperate, they may face legal liabilities such as contempt of court. The market believes that this case may become an important precedent for the U.S. judicial system directly constraining DAO governance structures and further highlights the compliance pressure on DeFi protocols within the real legal framework.

Caixin published an article titled "SpaceX's $1.75 Trillion IPO is Coming: Who Can Buy and Is It Worth It?" which pointed out that Wall Street has never encountered an IPO of such a massive scale that is also so intricately linked to the U.S. government.Previously, Nasdaq had approved a new rule for "Fast Entry," allowing newly listed companies to be quickly included in the Nasdaq 100 if their market capitalization ranks in the top 40 of the Nasdaq 100 index within 15 trading days after listing. This rule will officially take effect on May 1, 2026, and is considered to be designed with the upcoming SpaceX listing in mind, while also paving the way for potential listings of OpenAI and Anthropic within 2026 or 2027.Assuming SpaceX lists with a valuation of $1.75 trillion and a free float ratio of 25% to 30%, the free float market capitalization on the first day of the IPO would be approximately between $440 billion and $530 billion. Based on the weight calculations for the Nasdaq 100, SpaceX would directly enter the top ten weighted stocks. Market news indicates that S&P 500 is also evaluating some form of "Fast Entry" plan, with details yet to be disclosed.
