Key Takeaways

Ethereum (ETH) developers have activated the Merge on the Sepolia testnet. This exercise was essentially a dry run for activating the Merge on the main network, which is currently scheduled for later this year.
Two months on from the Terra (LUNC) collapse, around 50 projects formerly on the network have begun to migrate to Polygon (MATIC).
It has been revealed that the hack in which four out of nine Ronin validators were taken over by an attacker was conducted using a fake job advertisement. The attack on Axie Infinity’s sidechain resulted in US$540M in losses in March this year.
Cronos (CRO) has completed 50.01 million transactions since its launch, an increase of +1.52% from last week.
