Welcome to Finance Redefined, your weekly dose of essential decentralized finance (DeFi) insights — a newsletter crafted to bring you significant developments over the last week.

The second week of November could have been a bullish week, as consumer price index data released on Nov. 10 indicate lower-than-expected inflation. This resulted in a significant rally for traditional stocks, but the crypto ecosystem is currently fighting its own demon.

The FTX turmoil has not just tanked the price of the native token FTX Token (FTT), but any token associated with Sam Bankman-Fried or his associate company. Solana, a top-10 cryptocurrency and one of Bankman-Fried’s biggest investments, lost 32% of its market cap over the past couple of days.

Chainlink Lab said it would offer proof-of-reserve services for embattled exchanges. The new concept came to light after the collapse of the FTX exchange as a measure that can restore trust in crypto exchanges through greater transparency.

The DeFi ecosystem also faced criticism for denying user access based on wallet content. Entrepreneur Brad Mills criticized the so-called decentralized ecosystem and said DeFi rebuilt everything wrong with Wall Street on a blockchain.

It was a bloodbath on the crypto street this past week, with the majority of the top 100 DeFi tokens trading in red in the wake of FTX turmoil.

DeFi faces criticism for denying user access based on wallet content

While DeFi is expected to be an upgrade to traditional finance mechanisms, some believe that denying users access to decentralized exchanges based on their wallets is a backward move.

In a tweet, entrepreneur Brad Mills criticized DeFi for denying users access to decentralized exchanges (DEXs) due to various factors such as location and wallet content. Because of this, Mills described the future of Web3 as a “surveillance panopticon” and said that it has rebuilt everything wrong with Wall Street but on a blockchain. Within the tweet, Mills also shared an image of a pop-up message from 1inch Network’s decentralized application (DApp) restricting access because of the wallet address used.

Report: GALA token exploit resulted from public leak of private key on GitHub

According to a new post by blockchain security firm SlowMist on Nov. 7, it appears that the last week’s token exploits affecting the GameFi project Gala Games resulted from a public leak of applicable security keys on GitHub. As told by SlowMist, pNetwork, the cross-chain interoperability bridge used by Gala Games on the BNB Smart Chain, had three privileged roles in its smart contract pGALA.

SlowMist went on to explain that both the DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE and MINTER_ROLE roles were controlled by pNetwork during initialization. Meanwhile, the proxy admin contract was an externally owned address responsible for upgrading the pGALA contract. However, the firm posted a screenshot alleging that the plaintext private key for the proxy admin owner address was exposed and publicly viewable on GitHub.
