By: theblockbeats.news|2026/02/02 09:00:42

BlockBeats News, February 2nd, according to official sources, CrossCurve announced that its cross-chain bridge has been attacked, with the attacker exploiting a smart contract vulnerability. The project team has requested users to immediately pause all interactions with CrossCurve until the investigation is complete and will continue to update the community on the incident through official channels.

The project team later confirmed that some addresses received token funds due to the smart contract vulnerability that should have belonged to other users. CrossCurve emphasized that no subjective malicious behavior has been found in the related addresses at the moment and urged the address owners to cooperate in returning the mistakenly transferred funds. According to its Safe Harbor Responsible Disclosure Policy, if a white-hat hacker assists in fund recovery, they may retain up to 10% as a bounty.

CrossCurve stated that if funds are not returned within 72 hours from Ethereum block height 24,364,392 or if no effective communication is established, the project team will escalate the response as needed, including initiating criminal and civil proceedings, collaborating with exchanges, stablecoin issuers, and on-chain analytics firms to freeze or trace the assets in question. The project team urged all parties involved to contact them promptly or return the funds directly to prevent further escalation of the situation.
