Cross-chain protocol hit again! THORChain reportedly suffered a hack on one of its Asgard vaults today, with estimated losses of $10.7 million. The team has urgently halted network-wide trading. Fortunately, the network's automatic detection system intercepted abnormal signatures in time, successfully preventing further losses. Initial reports from the team indicate that user funds remain safe, with only protocol-owned funds affected. Investigation and remediation work is currently underway, and the relevant nodes have been subjected to Slashing penalties. (Background: THORChain hit by multi-chain simultaneous hack! $10.8M evaporated, all trading halted, RUNE plunges 12%) (Context: THORChain suddenly disconnects and shuts down! Team cites potential risks, community mocks: decentralized?) Cross-chain liquidity protocol THORChain today released an emergency announcement, declaring that its network trading has been fully suspended, primarily due to the detection of a vault being compromised by hackers. According to the team's preliminary investigation, the network automatically detected abnormal behavior earlier today and immediately activated a mechanism to halt signing activities, successfully blocking potential subsequent outbound transactions. Estimated losses of $10.7 million, user funds temporarily unaffected THORChain detailed the current damage situation in its announcement: - Scope of breach: Out of six Asgard vaults across the network, one appears to have been compromised. - Asset losses: Current preliminary estimates place the loss at approximately $10.7 million. - Fund ownership: Initial indications suggest that the affected funds are primarily "protocol-owned funds." Individual user assets are currently safe, and no user Swap transactions have been impacted. To safeguard network security, THORChain has imposed severe penalties on the nodes guarding the affected vault, with their staked RUNE subjected to Slashing. Additionally, node Churn activities have also been suspended. Any new chain additions and operations requiring Churn will be postponed until the network's stability is confirmed to be restored. Call to node operators: Immediately inspect infrastructure The THORChain contributor team is currently actively investigating the root cause of the vulnerability and proactively handling remediation work. The team has simultaneously issued a call to the global community, requesting all Node Operators to immediately execute the following actions: - Thoroughly inspect their own infrastructure, server hosts, Key Management Systems (KMS), and Operational Security (OpSec). - Operators of the affected vaults must securely provide Bifrost logs to the development team for analysis. - If any suspicious signs are discovered, they should be immediately reported on the official Discord channel. At the time of writing, affected by the hacker attack, THORChain's token RUNE has fallen below $0.50.
