Genuine question because this has been bothering me for a while.

DeFi conquered crypto trading. We got DEX aggregators, perps, options, the whole nine yards. We got lending protocols that actually work. Everyone's obsessed with RWAs now (tokenized treasuries, real estate, bonds) but somehow commodities (the original real-world assets) are getting zero attention.

The $140 trillion commodities market (oil, natural gas, metals, agriculture, the stuff that literally runs civilization) is still operating on infrastructure from the 1980s. Settlements take 2-3 days. Margin requirements lock up insane amounts of capital. Operational costs eat 30-50% of potential efficiency. It's genuinely archaic.

Why hasn't crypto touched this? The tech exists. Sub-100ms execution is possible onchain. T+0 settlement. Collateral efficiency that blows traditional markets out of the water. So what's the holdup? Regulatory friction? Liquidity chicken-and-egg problem? Or does nobody care because tokenizing oil futures isn't as sexy as the next memecoin pump?

Curious if anyone's tracking projects building in this vertical or if I'm just shouting into the void here.

Something clearly broke overnight. The active staking minimum reportedly jumped from ~280 DOT to ~10,100 DOT, causing many users with hundreds or even thousands of DOT to suddenly become inactive and stop earning rewards. At the same time, funds remain locked for 28 days due to unbonding rules. Some users also reported that both direct nominations and pools were inactive, which points to a network-level issue rather than user error.

The core problem is not “small vs big holders”. The problem is that rewards can stop overnight without warning, while capital stays locked, and this risk is not clearly disclosed in wallets that prominently advertise APY. Whether this is caused by election mechanics, a low number of elected nominators, or an edge case/bug, the user impact is the same: no warning, no grace period, no exit without penalty.

This may be “by design” and fully on-chain, but it breaks basic risk assumptions for staking and is extremely hostile to retail users. At minimum, wallets should clearly warn that direct DOT staking has no guarantee of continuous rewards and that users can become inactive without notice while still locked for 28 days. Posting this so others are aware before staking, not after learning the hard way.

Original Title: Flow Blockchain exploited. Malicious actor bridged out $4M. Flow rolls back the chain after hacker bridged out (hacker keeps funds), new users bridge in (users lose funds) and didn’t communicate with major bridges. Flow is receiving a ton of criticism for their actions
