Browser Extension Incident - Short Update (Dec 28)

Here’s where we are with the investigation of the Browser Extension v2.68 incident.

1/ First of all, I want to say we truly recognise the impact this incident has had on our users and the victims, and we appreciate the patience shown as our team continues to investigate and execute the compensation process.

2/ We’re prioritising accuracy over speed to protect affected users, and we aim to share further work-in-progress details as soon as we can, likely tomorrow.

So far, we’ve identified 2,596 affected wallet addresses. From this group, we’ve received around 5,000 claims which indicates a significant number of false or duplicate submissions attempting to access victims’ reimbursements.

Because of this, accurate verification of wallet ownership is critical to ensure funds are returned to the right people.

3/ Our team is working diligently to verify claims; combining multiple data points to distinguish legitimate victims from malicious actors.

This process is ongoing today and is being carried out alongside the broader forensic investigation.

While some data is still being finalised, we already have strong working hypotheses for a portion of the cases.

4/ This investigation and the compensation process remain our top priorities as a company and all team members are actively focusing on this.

Thank you again for your understanding, support and feedback. I have been reading them all and value your input.
