BounceBit permanently closed its independent Layer 1 blockchain following a security breach where an attacker exploited a protocol flaw to steal about 286.5 million BB tokens worth $3 million. The vulnerability was due to an authorization failure in the Evmos technology stack, but no private keys or user wallets were compromised. BounceBit halted the chain and decided against rebuilding, as Evmos was discontinued and user activity had shifted to BNB Chain. The BB token will be reissued as a BEP-20 token on BNB Chain, excluding stolen tokens, with balances restored via a snapshot before the exploit. This move aims to enhance security, liquidity, and user experience by fully integrating with the BNB Chain ecosystem.
