Traders drove prices higher despite a hotter-than-expected March CPI report showing inflation jumped to 3.3% year-over-year, mainly due to a sharp rise in gasoline prices amid the conflict in Iran. The core inflation reading remained tame, calming markets and supporting the rally. Ethereum climbed to $2,250 while the total crypto market cap reached $2.55 trillion. [AAVE Slides Below $90 as Contributor Departures Weigh on DeFi's Largest Lender](https://thedefiant.io/news/defi/aave-slides-below-usd90-as-contributor-departures-weigh-on-defi-s-largest-lender) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AAVE slid below $90 this week, dropping as low as $85 before recovering slightly to around $88. The token has now lost roughly 75% of its value since its peak near $356 in August 2025. The sharp decline comes as three key contributors, Chaos Labs, BGD Labs, and the Aave Chan Initiative, exited the protocol amid a growing governance crisis. Chaos Labs cited disagreements over risk management and insufficient funding, while the others pointed to increasing centralization around Aave Labs.

The partners also introduced incentives and reward gauges to bootstrap liquidity. They aim to bring transparent pricing and instant settlement to the massive $6.6 trillion daily global FX market. [Secret Claude model ‘better than all but the most skilled humans’ at hacking](https://protos.com/secret-claude-model-better-than-all-but-the-most-skilled-humans-at-hacking/) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Anthropic has developed a powerful new AI model called Mythos that excels at finding software vulnerabilities, reportedly better than all but the most skilled human hackers. The company quietly gave early access to this unreleased model through its Glasswing cybersecurity program to big names like JPMorgan Chase, Apple, and Microsoft, along with $4 million in free AI credits. Crypto companies were notably excluded from the list. Anthropic claims Mythos is highly autonomous and has already discovered thousands of high-severity bugs, including flaws in major operating systems and web browsers. **_WAGMI!_** ============ --- *Originally published on [Probably Nothing](https://pn.developerdao.com/issue-216)*
