Following an eleven-day suspension of services, Ethereum Layer 2 network Taiko has brought its bridge back online. The restoration comes after developers successfully patched the vulnerability that led to a $1.7 million loss earlier this month.
The protocol team confirmed that all liquidity has been fully replenished, ensuring that every user impacted by the security incident has been made whole. The team prioritized asset backing before authorizing the resumption of cross-chain transfers.
Taiko’s bridge protocol was temporarily halted while developers conducted an exhaustive audit of the smart contracts involved. This measure was essential to prevent further unauthorized outflows and to restore confidence in the network's architectural integrity.
The project continues to monitor the platform closely as bridge activity scales back to normal operations. Users are encouraged to verify their balances through the official dashboard, which is now fully operational.
