An important address to the crypto community. We need your support.
On the night of February 1–2, a serious incident occurred: the CrossCurve bridge was hacked.
According to information published by CrossCurve’s official account, the exploit resulted in the theft of funds totaling more than $1.44 million.
CrossCurve is a cross-chain bridge that allows users to move assets between different blockchains. Such systems are a critically important part of the DeFi ecosystem, because liquidity, capital availability and the operation of many projects depend on them.
Scale of the damage
According to the official CrossCurve report:
Total amount of stolen funds: $1,441,892
Of this amount:
$110,000+ - funds from CrossCurve pools
$1,331,000+ - funds from the Units blockchain
Key point:
Approximately $700,000 of the stolen funds belong to our project, Puzzle Network and to the personal funds of Vladimir, the founder and head of the project. These funds are crucial for the future development of the project. An important point that must be mentioned as well..
After the hack, one of the users checked the contract using an AI audit, relying only on publicly available code, without any internal data. At the very beginning of the analysis, an error was immediately found in the address-verification logic, which directly led to this hack.
Address to the CrossCurve team
We want to address the CrossCurve team directly - openly and without accusations.
Yes, this hack occurred.
Yes, it was a third-party attack.
But it is precisely a team’s response to such events that shows what values stand behind a project.
After the incident, Vladimir publicly reached out in the CrossCurve project chat to understand the situation and called for actions based on the same principles he himself had repeatedly followed as a founder - but he was blocked.
Throughout the entire existence of Puzzle Network, Vladimir, its founder, has repeatedly returned funds to users in situations where problems happened, including his own money. He always chose the path of responsibility and honesty, because he realised that user trust is more important than anything else.
This is about the responsibility of an infrastructure project to the ecosystem.
Is the CrossCurve team ready to be honest with its users and partners in the same way that Vladimir has always been?
Are you ready to take a step forward and return the stolen funds in order to preserve trust in the project and in the ecosystem as a whole?
Address to the community
If you are a developer, investor, DeFi participant, or an ordinary person for whom these principles of openness and honesty matter. Please, do not stay on the sidelines: help spread this information, raise the issue publicly and express your own position in favor of a responsible resolution of the situation.
