CRVUSD

South Korean cryptocurrency exchange Upbit has temporarily halted deposits and withdrawals for Curve (CRYPTO: CRV) due to a significant security exploit. The attack on Curve Finance risked $100 million worth of digital assets and caused CRV's dollar-denominated price to drop by over 15%. The price drop threatened the liquidation of a significant borrowed position on Aave (CRYPTO: AAVE), raising the risk of market-wide contagion. However, an MEV bot operator managed to recover approximately $5.4 million and returned it to Curve Finance.

CVX

Goldman Sachs has upgraded Chevron Corp (NYSE:CVX) from Neutral to Buy and set a $187 price target. The upgrade is based on a cash flow inflection point that should set the company up for increased capital returns at a more attractive valuation. The Goldman analyst expects Chevron to add approximately $1.5 billion to earnings in 2026, driven by improving crude oil flows. Chevron has underperformed the broader energy sector over the last year, but the Goldman analyst expects that to change in the years ahead.
