WANCHAIN CARDANO BRIDGE EXPLOITED FOR $13M! Wanchain’s Cardano bridge was hit in an exploit, with ~515 million $NIGHT drained from the treasury, valued at ~$13M pre-exploit. Initial analysis suggests a flaw in the TreasuryCheck validator, potentially allowing signature reuse

Midnight DIDN'T get hacked! What the data is showing so far is that the Wanchain bridge-layer had an incident, not an issue with the Midnight network or the $NIGHT token itself. Around 515M $NIGHT (~97% of Wanchain’s bridged NIGHT reserves) was moved from Wanchain’s

None of Midnight's infrastructure has been hacked. It appears the hack is completely localized to Wanchain's infrastructure.

dori @dori_coin · 2026-07-21T05:14:50+00:00

This issue is not related to @MidnightNtwrk . It originated from the Wanchain bridge. Assets that rely on bridges always carry this kind of risk, so it's worth being extra cautious with other bridge assets that also depend on Wanchain. I think trust-minimized bridges like BitVM
