Tether is in the news today after the world’s largest stablecoin announced the release of $33.4 million in frozen funds. These funds were associated with the Poly Network hack that took place earlier this month.<\/p>\n

The Tether Treasury transferred the funds to the Poly Network Multisig address and the cost of the transaction was 0.0063233 Ether [$19.68].<\/p>\n

The transaction details can be found below,<\/p>\n

Tether announced the unfreezing of the funds on Twitter after working closely with Poly Network through strict protocols. The stablecoin project added<\/a>,<\/p>\n

“Freezing funds is not a matter we take lightly \u2013 in being the first to act, Tether demonstrated its commitment to security and continued vigilance in ensuring the community always comes first.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Poly Network also announced on Thursday that it has completed asset recovery worth $610 million following the hack. Its Poly Bridge “restored cross-chain functionality for a total of 59 assets” while “other advanced functions will be gradually restored,” it added.<\/p>\n

Not the first time<\/h4>\n

Now, despite the fact that the hack in question had a happy ending, it is still a major security concern. Back in February, for instance, a Yearn DAI v1 vault was the target of a hack. At the time, Tether had frozen 1.7 million USDT that were stolen.<\/p>\n

Curiously, however, as it released<\/a> the Poly Network funds, it also returned ~1.7 million USDT to Yearn. Developer @bantg replied to Tether CTO Paolo Ardoino stating<\/a>,<\/p>\n

“Really appreciate the quick reaction back in February and your assistance now.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The increasing number of hacks in the crypto and DeFi space has had a whole host of implications. Not only are exchanges toughening up, but different nation-states are also considering stricter laws.<\/p>\n

Consider Japan, for example. After the Liquid wallet hack that also took place a few days ago, the government has been planning to ramp up its regulations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
