Symbiosis recovers 15 BTC after Bitcoin Bridge exploit, no LP compensation announced

  • The exploit occurred on September 11 at 04:28 UTC, affecting only the Bitcoin Bridge
  • Approximately 2^62 syBTC was minted on BNB Chain, and the attacker sold 4.39 WBTC for ~$336,000
  • About 15 BTC recovered, funds held in the team's multisig
  • 20% bug bounty active until September 13, exact time not specified
Why it matters: Affected LPs remain without compensation, and the native bridge pause limits withdrawals and trust in the protocol.
