AI visual analysis: A Discord screenshot shows a user named "jack" (verified Discord staff) exchanging messages with "Darth," who is attempting to swap XRP for BTC on THORChain. The thread is humorously accompanied by an image of Kim Jong-un, suggesting the "Darth" account is actually a North Korean state hacker seeking support for a stolen transaction (ID ending in 377F69) on thorchain.net/tx/.
· 2026-09-28T13:45:27+00:00Re: the Bitget hack, DFINITY wishes them well, plus, networks like THORChain should help freeze stolen funds. On the Internet Computer, I would support NNS (Network Nervous System) proposals that froze significant stolen funds. If networks work together, there will be less theft.
· 2026-09-28T15:27:33+00:00"designed to protect the protocol." yup. that's it right there. @THORChain at risk? emergency powers. someone else's stolen funds? permissionless. same system. different beneficiaries.

AI visual analysis: A tweet from @THORChain (@THORChain) clarifies that its network halt is an emergency security mechanism, not a selective fund freeze, noting that attackers in a May 2026 $10.7M exploit were never blacklisted from swapping. The embedded quote from @mperklin argues that "all tools in existence are inherently neutral by nature," supporting THORChain's permissionless stance. This directly addresses the accompanying post's critique that THORChain uses emergency powers selectively—protecting its own protocol while remaining permissionless for others' stolen funds, despite claiming a single neutral system.
· 2026-09-28T21:05:45+00:00"If your response to this hack is to just throw your hands up and be like whatever, we're going to collect some fees, quite frankly, you should be blacklisted from this industry by everybody," @austincampbell on the Bitget hack and THORChain debacle.

· 2026-09-28T11:38:18+00:00THORChain does not feel pressure to censor swaps, because quite simply, it was built and operates in a way that avoids any single person to be coerced to do something by someone else. And that is true decentralisation.

· 2026-09-28T04:30:17+00:00Your highway analogy is the point. THORChain closes the highway when its own gate is broken. When someone else’s stolen car is on it, the road stays open and collects the toll. That’s the product.
