🚨 UPDATE: Hackers behind the Liquid Network breach have returned 3,400 BTC (85%) to the Federation wallet, following on-chain negotiations with Blockstream.
Approximately 598 BTC (~$47M) was retained—likely as a self-awarded bounty.
This unprecedented dialogue unfolded directly on the blockchain, marking a rare instance of post-attack coordination between hackers and developers. While the returned funds mitigate the damage, the incident raises pressing questions about security and ethical gray zones in crypto.
The move stops short of full accountability, yet prevents total loss.
