Decentralized exchange dYdX plans to compensate traders affected by an 8-hour chain halt during last month’s market crash. The governance community will vote on giving up to $462,000 from the insurance fund to affected traders. The outage was caused by a misordered code process and delays in validators restarting their services.

Binance faced challenges during October’s market crash, losing about $19 billion in positions. Traders criticized the exchange for technical glitches, including tokens showing prices below zero and Ethena’s USDe depeg. Binance announced a $400 million relief initiative for affected traders, offering $300 million in token vouchers and $100 million for ecosystem participants.

In response to the market turmoil, Binance launched a $45 million BNB token airdrop to memecoin traders who suffered losses during the crash. The exchange pledged a total of $728 million to assist affected traders. EU’s privacy-killing Chat Control bill is delayed, but the fight isn’t over.
