Zilliqa has taken proactive measures to safeguard its network following reports of a security breach involving an unnamed exchange partner. The blockchain project officially requested that centralized trading platforms temporarily disable both deposits and withdrawals of ZIL tokens.
The incident stems from a suspected exploit of the partner's cold wallet infrastructure. While the exact value of the compromised assets remains undisclosed, the team is working closely with investigators to assess the total exposure and prevent further unauthorized outflows.
Security Response
- Immediate suspension of ZIL trading pairs.
- Coordinated audit of exchange wallet custody.
- Active monitoring of suspicious on-chain movements.
Users are encouraged to remain cautious and follow official channels for updates. Zilliqa developers emphasized that their own core protocol remains secure, and the current issue is isolated to the affected exchange's infrastructure.
