b14g reports that roughly 68M of the withdrawn CORE remains on Core, while exchange partners have frozen approximately 9M CORE linked to the attacker. BTC staked through the platform was time-locked on Bitcoin and unaffected. The team says it paused the affected contracts immediately upon discovery and is coordinating with the Core team, security partners and exchanges to trace funds and pursue freezing and recovery. Two attacker addresses were published, and a detailed post-mortem on the technical cause and user next steps is promised.
