April DeFi Exploits - $634M stolen across 31 incidents April 2026 was a brutal month for DeFi security, 31 separate hacks drained over $634M from protocols, exchanges, and wallets - making it one of the worst months for crypto exploits in history. Bridge exploits remain the deadliest category in DeFi — KelpDAO's $292M drain alone outweighs everything else combined. The oracle manipulation + fake token combo also struck twice, hitting Drift and Rhea for a combined $303M and proving price feed vulnerabilities are still DeFi's weakest seam. If 2025 set the record at $3.4B+ stolen, 2026 is on pace to challenge it - with $1.4B+ already gone in just 4 months. Top 7 Ecosystem:Alpha| X | Aggregator

Robinhood vs Hyperliquid: HYPE earns more per user, per dollar of volume, per everything The clean apples-to-apples comparison between the world's biggest retail brokerage and the biggest Perp DEX. Hyperliquid's crypto revenue ($179M) just flipped Robinhood's ($134M) for the first time. Even crazier - Hyperliquid's 1.19M users generated $192M in net income, while Robinhood needed 23x more users to do $346M. The discount-to-TradFi narrative is starting to crack. With RWA now >30% of Hyperliquid's volume, HIP-4 adding binary outcomes, and revenue volatility tracking Robinhood's, $HYPE at $38.5B circulating mcap looks extraordinarily cheap against $HOOD at $74B.
