aelf resumes operations after week-long halt over malicious contracts

  • Block production on AELF MainChain and tDVV was halted for about a week
  • The investigation identified 155 transactions: 127 on AELF and 28 on tDVV
  • Staking rewards for the week of downtime were not accrued and will not be paid
  • Bithumb resumed ELF deposits/withdrawals on September 14, MEXC on September 5, INDODAX remains closed
Why it matters: The incident highlights security risks for L1 networks and deprives stakers of a week's income; a full report on the causes has not yet been published.
