Velocity says private test remains live as audits continue before public launch and DFX claims

Velocity, the decentralized perpetuals trading platform formerly known as Drift Protocol, said its private test version is still running as the team continues audits and risk-hardening work ahead of a wider release. The project said it is testing the product with market makers, professional trading firms and retail traders, while also refining the trading experience and preparing liquidity for launch. According to the update, the public launch and DFX claims will only open after security and risk-related work is completed. The statement ties the rollout timeline directly to the completion of those internal checks. Foresight News noted that after Drift Protocol suffered a large-scale hack on April 1, the team created a compensation mechanism for affected users. DFX is described as a recovery token issued specifically to impacted wallets, with 1 DFX representing $1 in verified losses.

Cap Labs unveils revised Stabledrop plan with $4.2 million in cUSD compensation for loss-making Frontier users

Cap Labs has released a new Stabledrop plan tied to its Frontier Program, setting aside $4.2 million in stablecoin compensation for eligible users. Under the updated terms, the payout will go to Frontier participants who held capped tokens and are currently at a loss, with funds sourced entirely from token sale proceeds. The compensation will be paid in cUSD and is intended to fully cover those losses. The revised Stabledrop will become redeemable on July 13, 2026, and users will have a three-month window to claim. Eligibility is limited: only Frontier participants whose losses came from buying Pendle YT can receive the compensation. Users who simply hold cUSD or provide liquidity to Pendle LP are excluded from the stablecoin distribution. The update narrows the scope of the program while clarifying both the source of funds and the redemption timeline.
