"We will openly publish the specifics of the postmortem and all lessons learned on how to adopt more cutting-edge security measures to shore up these weaknesses." Cross-chain bridges have emerged as the most frequent target of ultra-high value hacks in recent years, in part because they constantly hold enormous quantities of cryptocurrency tokens.

We have asked all validators to temporarily suspend BSC. The issue is contained now. Your funds are safe. We apologize for the inconvenience and will provide further updates accordingly.
