\"THORChain<\/p>\n

THORChain has launched a recovery portal following a $10 million exploit, allowing affected users across four chains to revoke malicious approvals and claim refunds.<\/p>\n

THORChain has confirmed a $10 million exploit and launched a recovery portal, giving affected users a self-custodial path to revoke malicious token approvals and submit refund claims backed by a treasury-provisioned refund pool of equal size.<\/p>\n

In a Saturday post on X, THORChain Foundation introduced<\/a> the recovery portal, saying that \u201caffected users are now able to check what they will be paid as compensation following the exploit.\u201d<\/p>\n

The portal, citing a PeckShield post-mortem, claims that the attack was detected at 02:14 UTC on May 11, when node operators flagged anomalous outbound transactions. Trading and outbound signing were paused<\/a> within eight minutes. In total, attackers drained 36.75 BTC, worth around $3 million, and approximately $7 million in tokens across BNB Chain, Ethereum and Base, hitting 12,847 wallets across four chains.<\/p>\n
