Bitget Updates Security Breach Report: $388M in Assets Affected
Crypto exchange Bitget has released an updated incident report on its security breach that occurred earlier this week. The report clarifies that approximately $388 million in assets were affected, not $352 million as previously reported.
The revised figure includes additional affected assets on Zcash and TRON that were not initially accounted for, bringing the total to $387.5 million transferred to attacker-controlled addresses. This is about $35 million more than the initial estimate.
Bitget has announced that it will continue to pause withdrawals following the security breach and has launched a bounty program to incentivize freezing or recovering the assets.
