Gate News message, April 23 — Bunq, a European neobank, has surpassed €100 million in crypto trading volume within the first year of launching its digital asset offering in April 2025, across approximately 500,000 trades. The platform recorded a 41% increase in total signups in 2026, reflecting steady demand for integrated banking and investment services among retail users.
The bank introduced Stock Baskets, allowing users to group equities and exchange-traded funds into themed portfolios such as technology, sustainability, or widely held stocks. Users can customize baskets and fund them through regular contributions, simplifying portfolio construction without manual stock selection. Joe Wilson, Chief Evangelist at bunq, stated, “The place where your money grows should feel safe, understandable, and familiar. Investing shouldn’t feel like a leap into the unknown, so we’re equipping users with clarity and control.”
Bunq also expanded its Safety Shield feature to cover payments, stocks, and crypto, enabling users to cancel suspicious transactions within a 24-hour window before completion. The company emphasized that crypto trading, stock baskets, and security tools are combined within a single platform to enhance user engagement and risk management across multiple asset classes.

Sui DeFi lending protocol Scallop is hacked, with a vulnerability in the old contract leading to 150k SUI stolen
Scallop was attacked on the Sui chain, and the side contract involved led to the sSUI rewards pool being exploited. Approximately 150k SUI were stolen. The core contract is secure, and deposits and withdrawals have been restored. The official statement applies only to the deprecated rewards contract; users’ funds were not affected. Former NEAR developer Vadim said the vulnerability originated from an outdated V2 package from 17 months ago, where not initializing last_index caused rewards to accumulate starting in 2023. The fix requires adding a version field to the shared object and strengthening version checks to prevent risks caused by outdated packages.
