The Sui Foundation has cut ties with decentralized exchange MovEx due to a contract breach involving the illicit movement of SUI tokens. MovEx had received 2.5 million SUI tokens (around $1.6 million) for their work on the DeepBook exchange product, under an agreement involving a staged release of the tokens. MovEx, however, broke this agreement by making three transactions of 625,000 SUI to three different wallets without the Sui Foundation's consent or awareness. Following the breach, MovEx's total SUI allotment has been moved to a custodial wallet to ensure the release adheres to the contractual schedule.

FTX, the prominent cryptocurrency exchange, was recently embroiled in controversy when court documents revealed a plan devised by Gabriel, the younger brother of FTX's CEO, SBF. According to the documents, Gabriel aimed to utilize FTX clients' funds to purchase the entire country of Nauru. The idea was to transform Nauru into a post-apocalyptic sanctuary, complete with a highly secretive laboratory for conducting human genetics experiments and other projects. Who needs a private island when you can have a whole sovereign nation, right? The court documents further detailed instances of transactions involving the founder's family, including those that have been previously disclosed. While the idea of buying a nation for such purposes seems like something out of a sci-fi movie, it underscores the madness that was going on inside the FTX.
