Multichain's Fantom bridge was seemingly exploited for nearly $130 million. Stablecoin issuers have frozen the funds that were moved.

Multichain's Fantom bridge was seemingly exploited for nearly $130 million after an attack that siphoned assets from a number of bridges. That amounted to nearly the entirety of the project's wBTC, USDC, and USDT. Strangely, not all tokens in the bridge were taken and the assets weren't sold .

On Friday, the Fantom Foundation said that Circle had frozen three addresses containing $60 million worth of USDC on Ethereum.© 2023 The Block Crypto, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
