Fake Bitcoin Minting Leaves Bridge Paused and Liquidity Providers Unpaid

Hackers reportedly minted trillions of fake Bitcoin, while only 15 BTC was recovered through the affected bridge, according to CryptoSlate. The native bridge remains paused as the project completes its final accounting. A 20% bounty window is scheduled to close on September 13, adding a deadline to the ongoing recovery process. Despite the recovered Bitcoin, liquidity providers remain unpaid. The status of the bridge and the final distribution of funds are therefore still unresolved. CryptoSlate reported that the recovery and accounting process continues, with no indication in the supplied information that the bridge has resumed operations or that liquidity providers have received compensation.
