DeFi hub Wolf, operating under Byrrgis, has announced that more than 57% of its total WOLF token supply will be locked for two years, following recent incidents involving its Ethereum (ETH) bridge and an early token holder, as per the details shared with Finbold.

The measure, covering over 570 million tokens valued at around $13.2 million, aims to restore community confidence and demonstrate long-term commitment from major holders.

A framework that gives community full visibility into ownership and unlocks

The two-year lock, executed via Streamflow, will see tokens gradually vest after the holding period, with an option to re-lock thereafter. The measure follows two incidents in late September that temporarily affected WOLF’s token stability. 

In the first, a contractor retained administrator access to the project’s Ethereum bridge and minted unbacked ETH-WOLF tokens, draining over $600,000 in ETH-side liquidity. The second involved an early whale selling around 2% of the supply after declining to join the community lock framework.

Wolf said both events were contained, with the bridge and token infrastructure since reinforced to prevent similar occurrences. The lock is intended to reduce sell pressure, provide visibility into token ownership, and set a new standard of transparency for the platform’s DeFi community.

Robert Freeman, CTO of Byrrgis and Wolf, said that despite the bridge having undergone a full audit, access was misused by a contractor with administrator privileges, noting:

Amy Cooksey, CMO of Byrrgis and Wolf, added: 

According to Wolf, the measures reflect a broader goal to create an institutional-grade DeFi framework with clear accountability and resilience built into its design.

The post ABC Also Pulled Jimmy Kimmel’s Predecessor After Controversial Comments appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Jimmy Kimmel (Photo by Media Access Awards Presented By Easterseals/Getty Images for Easterseals) Getty Images for Easterseals The shock decision by ABC to pull Jimmy Kimmel Live! “indefinitely” after the late-night host’s remarks about the killing of Charlie Kirk has created a rare moment in modern TV media: A major show abruptly taken off the air, with its network forced into crisis-management mode. Rare, that is, but not unprecedented. What might go unnoticed by many people reacting to the news about Kimmel and his potential cancellation is that this is not the first time ABC has made such a move. In fact, a version of the same thing happened to Kimmel’s predecessor program — Bill Maher’s Politically Incorrect, which once had Kimmel’s slot and which ABC cancelled in the wake of a firestorm around comments Maher made in the immediate aftermath of the September 11 terrorist attacks. (Notice, by the way, that I said cancelled “in the wake of” and not “because of.” More on that in a moment.) Here’s what happened: Less than a week after 9/11, Maher and a panel were talking about then-President George W. Bush’s use of the word “cowards” to describe the hijackers. “We have been the cowards,” Maher interjected, referencing the practice of “lobbing cruise missiles from 2,000 miles away. That’s cowardly.” But Maher then went even farther over the line: Actually staying in an airplane as it hits a building? “Not cowardly.” You can read more about the ensuing uproar in this ABC news story from 2001, which includes a statement that Maher issued through his publicist: “In no way was I intending to say, nor have I ever thought, that the men and women who defend our nation in uniform are anything but courageous and valiant, and I offer my apologies to…
