PANews reported on November 6th that Balancer released a preliminary incident report on the v2 vulnerability exploit, stating that Hypernative monitoring detected an exploit targeting Balancer V2 Composable Stable Pools at 15:46 (UTC+8) on Monday. Affected networks include Ethereum, Base, Avalanche, Gnosis, Berachain, Polygon, Sonic, Arbitrum, and Optimism. The initial root cause is an incorrect rounding direction in the `EXACT_OUT` function of the `batchSwap` and `upscale` functions, leading to manipulation of pool balances. CSP v6 has been automatically paused and Recovery Mode enabled ; CSP v5 is affected. Mitigation progress: StakeWise recovered approximately 5,041 osETH and 13,495 osGNO ; Base MEV and BitFinding recovered approximately $750,000; Monerium froze approximately 1.3 million Euros ; Berachain suspended its chain; and Sonic froze related addresses. The final losses are pending verification by multiple parties.PANews reported on November 6th that Balancer released a preliminary incident report on the v2 vulnerability exploit, stating that Hypernative monitoring detected an exploit targeting Balancer V2 Composable Stable Pools at 15:46 (UTC+8) on Monday.

Balancer: EXACT_OUT rounding error combined with batchSwap causes pool balance manipulation.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For
The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush. Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs. Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
