Taiko Releases Security Incident Update: Launches Fix Testing, Full Collateral for Bridged Assets to Be Restored Before Reopening

Odaily Odaily reports that Ethereum Layer 2 project Taiko has released the latest update on a security incident, stating that this incident will not result in any user fund losses. Currently, bridged assets are under-collateralized, and the team will complete supplementary collateral for all assets before reopening the bridge, ensuring that each user's balance is supported on a 1:1 basis, identical to the state before the incident. Since the security incident occurred, cautious measures have been taken, including controlling the scope of impact, determining the root cause, and collaborating with the board to develop a plan to protect user assets.

Furthermore, the CEO of Taiko has submitted a formal report to relevant authorities in Singapore, and the team will fully cooperate in tracing the responsible parties. Users are currently not required to take any action. The completed fix is now being tested, and Taiko will reopen the chain and bridge services as soon as it is deemed safe. Meanwhile, users are reminded to be vigilant against scams. The Taiko team will not proactively message users, and there are no claim or refund websites. Any links offering such services are fraudulent.
