One more piece still needs dealing with after restart: a 168,990 ATOM refund on its way back to him. What's already on his address

AI visual analysis: A four-step infographic titled "How the refund was found" breaks down how 168,990 ATOM was queued in THORChain's outbound queue following the Neutron/Astroport exploit, showing that only 31,009.1 ATOM had actually swapped before the halt, with the remaining 168,990.898794 ATOM (from outbound ID 02DAB055...) still queued as an unsigned refund held by the GAIA halt, checked at 22 Sep 23:43 UTC.
· 2026-09-23T19:00:09+00:00The Cosmos Hub is stable and running normally. The funds secured during the restart came from the Neutron governance attack and were bridged to the Hub; there was no vulnerability on the Hub itself. They are now held in a community validator multisig. Hub validators, the

· 2026-09-23T11:06:07+00:00Cosmos has had a lot going on lately. Halts. Validator issues. Security problems. They’ve fixed the issues so far, but how many more incidents will we see this year? Still bullish on Cosmos and $ATOM . Just want to see some stability. @cosmos @cosmoshub

· 2026-09-23T08:09:55+00:00One detail on the Hub side that is not in the updates: the fix leaves no on-chain trace. A live node still returns null for cosmos/upgrade current_plan, so moving the attacker's 1,227,121 ATOM and blocking his address rest purely on validators coordinating off-chain.

· 2026-09-23T06:55:10+00:00thanks for the report. the kill switch was not used. validators running their own nodes can actually prove it with logs. everyone can do that. the kill switch actually was never finished. it was an idea in 2019, actually taken from Cosmos at that time, but we never finished

AI visual analysis: The image is a detailed technical breakdown addressing the non-functional "hardfork/trigger" legacy artifact in mx-chain-go, explaining it was an unfinished V1 protocol experiment from 2021 that never activated on Mainnet due to architectural divergence (Andromeda/Supernova) and network-level protections that close the API by default. The caption relates to the post by confirming the validator's claim that "the kill switch actually was never finished" — the post frames it as an unimplemented 2019 idea borrowed from Cosmos, while the image provides the technical reality showing it as dead legacy V1 code deliberately rendered inert through deprecation, incompatibility with newer protocol versions (HeaderV3, Supernova), and explicit gating.
