GIWA is an Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain built on the OP Stack, with ETH as the gas token. Built by Upbit, it aims to serve as a bridge connecting more users, data, and liquidity to the broader Web3 ecosystem.
Odaily report: DyorSwap has officially announced that the so-called "GIWA mainnet" previously identified by the team was actually a fake chain set up by scammers. The fake network used the correct GIWA chain ID (9134), making it appear legitimate during the initial verification stage. The team also identified several suspicious messages and individuals in the related community who may be connected to this incident. The announcement stated that significant losses have already been caused through this fraudulent cross-chain bridge.DyorSwap stated that it is immediately taking three measures: first, contacting a professional security team to conduct further on-chain tracing and investigate the addresses, transactions, and fund flows involved; second, preserving all relevant evidence, including chat records, RPC information, cross-chain bridge addresses, and on-chain transactions; third, preparing to use treasury funds to compensate affected users, with eligibility criteria, loss verification procedures, compensation scope, and a detailed plan to be announced after the investigation and verification process is completed.DyorSwap emphasized that until further notice, users should not use any unofficial GIWA mainnet RPCs, cross-chain bridges, or contracts, and should not send funds to any related addresses. The official team deeply apologizes to every user affected by this incident and stated that further updates will be released as soon as possible.
Ethereum Layer 2 infrastructure Optimism has officially announced a tripartite strategic collaboration, joining forces with Upbit operator Dunamu, fintech platform Toss, and DB Securities to comprehensively expand into the Korean market. On the cooperation front with Dunamu, both parties will upgrade the GIWA public chain based on the OP Stack and promote its global development. A three-month technical verification will be conducted with Toss to build a compliant Korean won digital financial infrastructure. Optimism and DB Securities are focusing on the STO and RWA sectors, planning to transform Jeju Island's smart agriculture, livestock assets, and Korean intellectual property into tokenized securities and real-world asset products. This will facilitate the phased on-chain commercialization of local physical assets, with the entire cooperation framework tailored to align with Korea's financial regulatory framework.
DYORSWAP has released an "Official Statement Regarding the Fake GIWA Mainnet 9134 Incident," stating that the incident was not a DYOR contract vulnerability, but rather was caused by a fraudulent network impersonating GIWA Chain 9134. This network had a bridge and batcher similar to OP Stack, deployed on September 27, 2026, at 02:10:59 (UTC+8). Approximately 8.5 hours before deployment, the address received about 0.045 ETH from a ChangeHero-related address. Data shows that a total of 1,335 addresses bridged approximately 767.65 ETH to it, of which about 766.25 ETH was ultimately transferred out from the cross-chain bridge.DYORSWAP stated that it has already used its own funds to compensate affected users with over 200 ETH. Additionally, the team is still tracking the cross-chain bridge deployer, the source of funds, early test wallets, and the subsequent flow of the transferred funds.

Odaily News: GIWA posted on X to remind the community that the mainnet has not yet launched, so there is no possibility of a so-called "RPC leak" connecting to GIWA mainnet network interfaces/node addresses. GIWA emphasized that any content claiming to have GIWA mainnet RPC information is untrue, and reminded users to verify relevant contract information before interacting with contracts, and to beware of FUD and scams.GIWA is an Ethereum Layer 2 launched by South Korean cryptocurrency exchange Upbit, built on OP Stack. The chain is currently live on testnet, with the mainnet to follow.
The official GIWA account (@GIWA_by_Upbit) issued a clarification stating that the project's mainnet has not yet launched and no RPC has ever been deployed, meaning there is no risk of any RPC leak. Users were reminded to conduct their own research (DYOR) and remain vigilant against FUD and fraudulent information. GIWA is an Ethereum L2 project developed by Upbit’s parent company, Dunamu, based on the OP Stack. Aiming for 1-second block times and EVM compatibility, the project is currently still in the testnet phase.
