THORChain (RUNE) is restarting. The decentralized cross-chain DEX, paused since May 15 after a $10.7M exploit drained one of its vaults, is rolling out v3.19, its official restart release, with mainnet adoption targeted for the first week of June.

A cursed teenager dreams of escape in Thanasis Neofotistos’ folkloric debut feature, The Boy with the Light-Blue Eyes.

The landscape is vital…
