These markets are run by automated news-feed software released by validators as part of routine on-chain operations. Validators vote on the deployment and settlement of compliant markets based on multiple factors, including the clarity and correctness of market rules and subjective quality, among others.

The contract with the vulnerability was verified on Basescan under the name “SquidRouterModule,” but it was not built, deployed, or operated by the cross-chain protocol Squid. Squid emphasized that its core protocol and the contract architecture (including the routing contract 0xce16F6…D666) are different and were not touched, and Squid users’ funds, permissions, and integrations were not affected.

Phyrex Ni (@Phyrex_Ni): “This time I really feel it’s about done. Iran has started saying that after 30 days following the agreement, normal passage through the Strait of Hormuz will resume, and these 30 days are for clearing mines. Trump has also publicly said that negotiations with Iran are going very smoothly. As I said beforeI'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
