Why It Happened

The SecondFi wallet, a rebranded version of Yoroi developed by Emurgo, had a vulnerability that exposed seed phrases, allowing attackers to drain funds. The incident was detected and partially mitigated through a white hat intervention.

Outcome So Far

Approximately 129M ADA was rescued and is being returned to affected users via a claims process. The remaining 16M ADA is considered lost. Investigations are ongoing.
