Osmosis says maintenance phase is ending and active development will resume with three OSMO proposals

Osmosis, a decentralized exchange protocol in the Cosmos ecosystem, said its maintenance mode over the past several months is about to end and active development will restart. The team said its first step will be to simplify the core product, with work focused on streamlining tokenomics, narrowing treasury deployment, and making the network faster to act when needed. As part of that plan, Osmosis outlined three OSMO changes that will all be submitted to on-chain governance. The proposals include cutting inflation further to reduce newly issued OSMO entering circulation, ending the flow of newly minted OSMO into the community pool, and shifting the network to rely more on real revenue. The team also proposed burning most of the OSMO held in the community pool, along with OSMO previously distributed from that pool, and limiting treasury liquidity provision to core liquidity pools, with a full list to be released before the changes take effect. In addition, Osmosis said it plans to reduce the active validator set to 30, arguing that a smaller set would help with security incident response and chain upgrade coordination while fitting a lower-inflation model.

Ondo Finance to Stop Minting USDY on Aptos and Noble Starting Sept. 8

Ondo Finance said it will stop minting USDY on the Aptos and Noble networks starting Sept. 8, while USDY on other supported networks will remain unaffected. The change also reaches holders on Osmosis and Mantra because USDY on those networks is bridged from Noble through IBC. According to the announcement, USDY will remain fully backed throughout the process, and all affected holders will have either a migration route or an exit option. Holders with 1,000 USDY or more can bridge to another supported network or redeem directly with Ondo at net asset value, with that window open until Sept. 8, 2027. Holders with less than 1,000 USDY can exit through third-party open-market liquidity during a 90-day transition period that runs until Dec. 7, 2026. For users on Osmosis and Mantra, Ondo said they can first bridge their USDY back to Noble through IBC and then follow the same rules, or exit directly on Osmosis through third-party liquidity.

Cardano and Injective connect on testnet through IBC

The Cardano Foundation said in a post on X that Cardano and Injective have established a connection on testnet through IBC, the Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol. The update indicates that the link has been completed in a testnet environment rather than on mainnet. According to the statement, ADA will be able to move into the Injective ecosystem, while INJ will also be able to enter the Cardano ecosystem. The two assets are expected to be usable across the two ecosystems under this testnet connection. The announcement came directly from the Cardano Foundation. No additional rollout details, timing beyond the testnet milestone, or production deployment information were disclosed in the source post.

Axelar Says $4.67M Secret Bridge Exploit Stemmed From Forked Contract

Axelar said the $4.67 million Secret Network exploit did not compromise Axelar or IBC itself. The issue was traced to a forked Secret-side contract that removed key minting checks, letting attackers mint unbacked assets and redeem them through legitimate bridge channels.
