Tornado Cash DAO Attacked, TORN Token Slumps.

Tornado Cash's TORN token has surged by 10% after an attacker submitted a proposal to reverse the malicious changes made during a recent attack on the DAO's governance state. The attacker is reverting the TORN tokens they gave themselves, which gave them a controlling share of the governance votes, back to zero. The proposal is expected to pass when voting closes on May 26, and the governance of Tornado Cash's DAO will go back to token holders. However, there are concerns that this might be a "gigatroll" to depress the token's price and increase the attacker's holdings at a discount.

The community is proposing solutions such as reverting changes made to the code or creating a new contract and airdropping new tokens to holders.

Blockbuster's Possible Comeback Sparks Fan Speculation

The Blockbuster website is active with a message saying "We are working on rewinding your movie," leading fans to speculate about a possible comeback. The company ceased most of its operations in 2014, but a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) called Rewind was created in 2021 with the goal of acquiring Blockbuster from DISH. The DAO had 13 meetings with DISH about the acquisition, but it was shut down. The last remaining Blockbuster location in Bend, Oregon, is now an attraction that sells merchandise rather than renting movies.
