Berachain blocks compromised reward vaults and halts BGT rewards in response to Wasabi private key leak

Odaily Odaily reports that the Berachain Foundation has issued a warning on platform X, stating that the Wasabi Protocol suffered a cross-chain security incident due to a deployer's private key leak, which has impacted multiple blockchains including Berachain. To prevent the risk from spreading, Berachain has blocked and suspended all affected Wasabi Reward Vaults within its network, immediately halting the distribution of BGT staking rewards to the compromised contracts and blocking the flow of new BGT into these affected contracts.

The official team requires all users who have previously interacted with Wasabi on Berachain to immediately revoke token approvals for the specified contracts to prevent asset theft. Berachain also emphasized that the BGT reward funds within the native Reward Vaults remain secure and users can claim them as usual; this incident does not affect the core ecosystem rights and interests.
