THORChain's latest fee week runs 2.1 times its pre-surge level with no reported hack flows
THORChain took in about $404,600 in swap fees from October 5 to 11, more than double the week before its September surge. Cryptopolitan's count has that 82% below the hack week, and its "no exploit money" label rests on an absence of reports.
