Slow Mist Cosine: Verus Hack Likely Due to Forged Merkle Proof

Odaily reported that Slow Mist's Cosine posted on X platform, stating that the cause of the hack may be that the attacker constructed a forged Merkle proof, which passed the verification of the Verus Ethereum bridge (not open source), allowing them to successfully withdraw funds (ETH/tBTC/USDC) from it. Specific details require further verification.
