Scroll announced that it received a vulnerability bounty report on November 3, indicating that there was a vulnerability in the bundle proof validator deployed on the Ethereum mainnet, and it registered a fixed validator for batch version 10 on November 10. Scroll stated that it has confirmed that the vulnerability was not exploited on the mainnet.According to the report, the vulnerability could allow old valid proofs to be accepted for new public inputs, thereby allowing the final confirmation of any state root and withdrawal root. Exploiting this vulnerability requires having a permissioned prover role or enabling the forced batch mode after 7 days without final confirmation.Scroll stated that the forced mode was never enabled, and all 748 final confirmations during the period of the vulnerability used normal proofs, with previous versions of the validator unaffected.

According to Bloomberg, over the past two years, the cryptocurrency industry has enjoyed a rare political advantage in Washington: the U.S. President has prioritized digital assets as a national priority, regulators have paved the way for it, and the Republican-controlled Congress has been sympathetic to its agenda. With the Democratic Party's significant victory in the midterm elections and control of Congress, the cryptocurrency industry is facing stricter rules and closer scrutiny of Trump's cryptocurrency business, and its political advantage is waning.The Democratic Party has indicated plans to impose stricter ethical constraints, stronger consumer protections, and to give the SEC a greater role in regulating digital assets. Cryptocurrency critics Maxine Waters and Elizabeth Warren are expected to wield greater influence in the House Financial Services Committee and the Senate Banking Committee, respectively. However, many of the cryptocurrency industry's achievements are difficult to reverse, such as the stablecoin bill which requires new legislation to be repealed.

Some observers of the Federal Reserve believe that Trump's strong opposition from voters in the midterm elections may alleviate the political pressure faced by Federal Reserve Chair Waller, allowing him to reduce political interference and focus on controlling inflation. Voters have listed the cost of living as one of their top concerns, fundamentally changing the political landscape surrounding the Federal Reserve.Since Trump's re-election in 2024, he has been exerting pressure on the Federal Reserve and its interest rate decisions, repeatedly calling for rate cuts, supporting an unprecedented criminal investigation into the renovation of the Federal Reserve's office building, and attempting to remove a sitting Federal Reserve governor. Against this backdrop, Trump chose Waller to lead the Federal Reserve in May of this year, after Waller had unusually shifted to support rate cuts. This has raised concerns among Democrats, who fear that the new chair may have agreed to adjust monetary policy according to the president's wishes.Claudia Sahm, Chief Economist at New Century Advisors, stated that in fact, if the election results prompt Trump to end the conflict with Iran and abandon further tariff increases, the Federal Reserve may not need to raise interest rates again at all.

According to CryptoBriefing, the Ethereum Economic Zone (EEZ), jointly initiated by Gnosis and Zisk and funded by the Ethereum Foundation, launched the Rollup X development testnet (devnet) at Devcon 8 to demonstrate synchronous composability. The EEZ aims to connect applications on dedicated chains through Ethereum's neutral infrastructure, enabling atomic cross-chain execution, allowing one EEZ rollup or a contract on the Ethereum mainnet to call another contract in a single transaction, with ETH as the default gas token, without introducing new tokens.The EEZ is governed by a Swiss non-profit organization, with alliance members including Aave, Safe, and Centrifuge. Gnosis Chain plans to migrate to the EEZ rollup in the spring of 2027, becoming the first major active network to test this framework. The report notes that its risks lie in the high technical difficulty, and multi-system atomic execution may expand the attack surface.
