: Harmony has released an update on the exchange reconciliation progress following the August 11 incident. It has verified on-chain deposits/withdrawals and cross-platform fund flows with Binance, Gate, KuCoin, MEXC, OKX, and Binance.US, prioritizing the coordination of restoring ONE deposits, withdrawals, and trading, with specific timelines to be announced separately by each exchange.Harmony stated that after matching 295 cross-exchange transfers totaling approximately 3.493 billion ONE and adjusting for circular transfers and returned funds, the preliminary shortage has been reduced from approximately 10.234 billion ONE to 6.581 billion ONE, a decrease of about 3.653 billion ONE. This change reflects an adjustment in reconciliation methodology and does not equate to newly recovered funds.Among these, Binance's data remains a preliminary upper-bound estimate, while some data from Gate and OKX are still pending final verification. Exchange teams have already frozen significant ONE balances and hacker proceeds. These efforts will be coordinated with the ONE migration and validator transition proposal, and validators may cease operations starting 22:00 Beijing time on September 10.
According to an official post from Midnight Foundation (@midnightfdn), the Wanchain Cardano<>BNB cross-chain bridge suffered a security attack. Currently, multiple major exchanges including KuCoin, Kraken, Binance, Bybit, OKX, and MEXC have responded rapidly, taking preventive measures to restrict the flow of stolen assets, including freezing relevant accounts and addresses, blacklisting the attacker's wallets, and suspending NIGHT token deposit and withdrawal services. The exchanges confirmed that this incident is an isolated third-party bridge vulnerability and is unrelated to the Midnight Network mainnet and the NIGHT asset itself.
the Midnight Foundation has provided an update on the handling of the cross-chain bridge attack event involving Wanchain Cardano and BNB. Multiple exchanges including KuCoin, Kraken, Binance, Bybit, OKX, Gate, and MEXC have coordinated risk control actions, temporarily freezing the involved accounts and associated addresses, adding the hacker wallet to a blacklist, and pausing NIGHT token deposits and withdrawals as needed to curb the transfer and cashing out of stolen assets.The Foundation specifically noted that this security incident is an isolated incident related to a third-party cross-chain bridge, and the Midnight mainnet and native NIGHT assets have not been affected. The project team continues to collaborate with major exchanges and ecosystem partners to advance traceability investigations, reminding the community to rely on official disclosures for information and to be cautious of misinformation.
According to Lookonchain, the Humanity Protocol attacker has converted part of the stolen funds into USDC and deposited them into KuCoin.
According to The Block, U.S. musician Garrett Dutton (stage name G. Love) lost 5.9 BTC—worth approximately $420,000—after downloading and using a counterfeit Ledger wallet app from the App Store and entering his recovery phrase. On-chain analyst ZachXBT discovered that the attacker laundered the stolen Bitcoin via the KuCoin platform. This incident once again exposes the security risks posed by fake wallet apps, reminding users to exercise heightened caution when downloading and using cryptocurrency-related applications, and to avoid entering sensitive information through unofficial channels.
According to ZachXBT, BitcoinDepot filed an 8-K on April 6, 2026, stating that it discovered the theft of 50.9 BTC on March 23; on-chain tracking shows that 19 high-confidence theft addresses had already transferred a total of 54.45 BTC as early as March 20—3.55 BTC more than disclosed—and the funds ultimately flowed into KuCoin, indicating the company may have detected the anomaly three days late.
