The Sandbox confirms SAND cross-chain bridge vulnerability, cross-chain functionality on Base and BSC networks suspended
The Sandbox has officially confirmed and fully secured the recent SAND cross-chain bridge vulnerability affecting the Base and BNB Smart Chain (BSC) networks. Attackers exploited the flaw to mint uncollateralized SAND tokens across both networks, but the impact remains limited, accounting for less than 0.01% of the total SAND supply. SAND on Ethereum and Polygon, along with user wallets, remain unaffected. The Sandbox has since disabled cross-chain functionality on both networks. SAND on Base and BSC has been isolated and is temporarily non-transferable and non-redeemable. The official team advises users to avoid buying, selling, or trading SAND on the aforementioned networks.
