Latest Market News Today, October 5

Discord Hack News: Discord revealed that hackers breached a third-party customer support vendor, exposing data of users who contacted Support or Trust & Safety. Names, emails, chat transcripts, IPs, and partial billing info were accessed, but no passwords or full card numbers. Discord cut access, launched investigations, and is notifying affected users.

MetaMask Rewards News : MetaMask readied a new “Ways to Earn” feature, quietly confirmed through a merged GitHub update. Users will collect reward points based on trading volume — 80 per $100 spot, 10 per $100 perpetuals, 250 per $1,250 past trades — with LINEA network activity earning double. Loyalty now pays.

Solana Privacy Update: Voidify shook Solana by partnering with Tornado Cash under Proposal 64, bringing Ethereum-grade privacy to the chain with full UI support. Its Ø token powers relayers, stakers, miners, and DAO voters, while fee pools fuel rewards. Excitement surged across crypto circles, hinting at Zcash-style volume spikes.

FTX Latest News : Sam Bankman-Fried, now serving 25 years in prison, says his biggest mistake during FTX’s $8.9B collapse was handing control to John J. Ray III. Minutes later, a rescue deal surfaced—but bankruptcy had already been filed. Law firm Sullivan & Cromwell earned $171M, while creditors still await full repayment.

ETH Upgrade: Institutions quietly amassed ETH, swelling the Digital Asset Trust (DAT) to $135 billion. But while stakers thrived, non-stakers faced dilution.
