On April 29, Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart noted that the first batch of PredictIt market exchange-traded funds (ETFs) could launch in the U.S. as early as next week. New York-based issuer Roundhill has filed an effective amendment with the SEC under Rule 485(b), setting the effective date for its six PredictIt market ETFs as May 5. The lineup includes a Republican/Democratic 2028 presidential election ETF, plus Senate and House ETFs tied to the November 2026 midterms.

Data from DeFiLlama shows that as of April 18, 12 security incidents in just 18 days have resulted in over $606 million in losses—3.7 times the total losses reported in the first quarter of 2026.

They then executed two transactions (one second apart) to transfer permissions and drain liquidity. On April 18, the LayerZero cross-chain bridge for Ethereum liquidity rehypothecation protocol KelpDAO was breached, with 116,500 rsETH tokens (worth ~$292 million) stolen. The attacker—linked to the North Korean Lazarus Group’s TraderTraitor subunit—deposited the s
