Sui's Biggest Liquidity Provider Hacked for $223M, Causing Sui-Based Tokens to Plummet
Cetus Protocol, the largest decentralized exchange (DEX) and liquidity provider on the Sui network, has been drained of $223 million worth of tokens in an apparent hack, according to Cetus Protocol on X. The protocol added that $162 million of the stolen funds had been "paused" and it is working with the Sui Foundation to recover the remainder of the funds. The wallet tied to the Cetus Protocol exploit — 0xe28b50 — currently holds over 12.9 million SUI, valued at approximately $54 million at current prices. On-chain data shows the address has a net worth exceeding 32.9 million SUI (approximately $137 million), suggesting the attacker may have already bridged or swapped funds through multiple paths. The wallet remains active at the time of publishing and is likely in the process of obfuscating funds. This confirms the scale of the exploit and further pressures Sui's DeFi infrastructure, as major token pools and pairs remain drained. The Cetus team has paused the smart contracts and is actively investigating, it said in an X post. According to early analysis, the attacker used spoof tokens like BULLA to exploit broken price curves and reserve calculations. They then added near-zero liquidity to manipulate internal LP state and repeatedly removed real assets like SUI and USDC without depositing anything meaningful. Cetus confirmed the incident on X, saying the contract has been paused 'for safety' and that a detailed statement will follow. Binance founder CZ said the exchange's team has reached out to Sui to offer help,. CETUS is down 40% in the past few hours, while Sui-based memecoins like BULLA and MOJO have dropped over 90%. UPDATE (May 22, 12:00 UTC): Updates headline and story with additional (May 22, 12:13 UTC): Adds further details and CZ tweet. UPDATE (May 22, 16:40 UTC): Adds response from Cetus Network and updates headline to reflect $223 million figure. Sign in to access your portfolio

My adventures in experimental music
David Keenan acquired his craft as a music writer, he says, from reading the crème de la crème of critics who milked rock music for all it was worth during the 1970s – Lester Bangs, Griel Marcus, Paul Morley, Biba Kopf – before deciding that rock criticism was not his bag. In the preface to this weighty collection of his music journalism, he says he considered himself more of a 'rock evangelist'. The pieces originally appeared between 1998, when Keenan was writing for hardcore music magazines such as Melody Maker, MOJO and the Wire, and 2015, after which he checked out of regular reviewing duties to pursue his career as a novelist. Luckily for him, his debut novel This Is Memorial Device proved a smash hit. He dedicates Volcanic Tongue to ur-rocker Lou Reed, but the point is pressed that stylistic labels barely compute to Keenan, and there are lengthy and insightful pieces about free jazz, folk and modern composition too. Concerned not so much with the technical nuts and bolts driving music forwards, or re-examining existing mythomanias, Keenan is instead motivated to capture 'the first rush of hearing' and the attitudes behind – even forming – the sounds. Rock, he says, tends towards collapsing into nostalgia. But tracing what he terms the rock and roll 'urge' elsewhere has taken him far beyond rock – towards other music unafraid to work itself out in the moment of playing. Keenan's interview with the free-improviser guitarist Derek Bailey, when it was published in the Wire in 2004, made me grasp the extent to which Bailey's inquisitive, nigglingly provocative music was an extension of his acerbic wit.

Brian May reveals one of Freddie Mercury's grand ideas that got vetoed by the rest of Queen
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Queen guitarist Brian May shares his memories of his late friend and bandmate Freddie Mercury in a new interview, and reveals that not every idea that the flamboyant frontman had was golden. "Deep down Freddie was one of the shyest people I've ever met," May tells Queen biographer Mark Blake in the current issue of MOJO magazine, "but he was so full of bluster, you'd forget. Freddie would always be excited, and his excitement would take over. He'd be so full of excitement he could hard speak. "Freddie's ideas were off the wall and cheeky and different — and we tended to encourage them. Sometimes the idea he brought in was brilliant, and sometimes not brilliant."As an example of one of those less-than-brilliant ideas, May recalls an alternate reality where Queen's 1989 album The Miracle could simply have been called Good, had Mercury got his way. 'He came in one day and announced, 'I've got this amazing idea. You know Michael Jackson has just put out this album called Bad? Well, listen… What do you think about us calling our next album Good?' "We all looked at each other and said, 'Well, maybe we should think about it, Freddie'," the guitarist recalls. "It wasn't one of his world-shattering ideas, but looking back, maybe we were wrong..." In the interview, May also confesses that, during Queen's career, he would be nervous about presenting his song ideas to his bandmates, who were all also songwriters in their own right. "Every time I brought a new song to the boys I'd be as nervous as hell, thinking, They're gonna say it's rubbish, they're gonna hate it...' he recalls. 'I'd always be embarrassed and apologising. That never ever went away.'Such nerves notwithstanding, May also reiterated that the idea of new Queen music isn't beyond the realms of possibility. "I think it could happen,' he tells Blake. "Both Roger [Taylor] and I are constantly writing and coming up with ideas and doing things in our studios. "I could have the beginnings of a Queen song right there in front of me now. It's just whether the idea reaches maturity or not. It's whether that seed can grow.'
