Matter Labs CEO: The suspension of Linea blockchain after Velocore's attack highlights the slow progress of Ethereum L2 decentralization
Matter Labs CEO Alex Gluchowski stated that after Ethereum Layer2 blockchain Linea was hacked on Velocore, it decided to halt block production, highlighting the need for Layer2 companies to prioritize decentralization as early as possible. Gluchowski said: "Decentralized sorters are not optional. Everyone committed to the L2 stack must strive to achieve this first."
Declan Fox, product manager of Linea, agreed with this view. He also believes that decentralization is necessary but emphasized that the network is moving towards decentralization "solidly" and in a much shorter time window than many competitors. Declan Fox wrote: "Considering many Rollup frameworks appeared two years earlier than us have not made more progress than us, I am quite satisfied with our progress."
Previously, Linea explained in an X post that on June 2nd, after hackers exploited the decentralized exchange Velocore based on Linea, over $2.6 million worth of ETH was transferred out from Linea. Afterward, Linea resumed block production but decided to stop zkEVM blockchain.

Crude oil is "coming back", but refined oil is "not coming back"; the global refining gap is widening.
According to Goldman Sachs, global refined oil exports have declined by about 6 million barrels per day year-on-year, with the Gulf region and Russia contributing three-quarters of the decrease. Unlike crude oil, which can be rerouted, damaged refineries cannot be relocated, and the Gulf region's refined oil exports have only recovered to 40% of pre-war levels. Goldman Sachs expects global refinery utilization rates to recover only by the second half of 2027; based on this, it has more than doubled its forecast for diesel profit margins in 2027.
