THORChain officials said the investigation into the incident is ongoing but explained that one of their six vaults was compromised, leading to a loss of about $10.7 million.
Cryptocurrency platform THORChain said more than $10 million was stolen during a security incident on Friday morning.
The cyberattack was first identified by blockchain security firm Peckshield and cryptocurrency investigator Zachary Wolk, who goes by the online alias ZachXBT. Around 6 am EST, both reported that more than 36 Bitcoin, worth about $3 million, and another $7 million in other coins was siphoned from THORChain.
THORChain published its own statement shortly after confirming the incident.
