Fogo Halts Mainnet After Massive Wallet Breach

Fogo's mainnet was halted as a precautionary measure after an unauthorized wallet breach resulted in the transfer of 400 million FOGO tokens. The incident occurred on August 29, 2026.

The Fogo Foundation announced the halt on social media platform X and stated that it had notified cryptocurrency exchanges about the breach. Law enforcement and forensic experts are also investigating the incident.
