Taiko has fully recovered from a $1.7 million exploit on its Ethereum Layer 2 cross-chain bridge that occurred on June 21. The breach was caused by a compromised SGX signing key mistakenly posted on GitHub, allowing attackers to forge withdrawal proofs and steal funds. Taiko halted operations, patched the vulnerability, replenished bridge reserves to ensure 1:1 asset backing, and conducted an independent security review before reopening the bridge under controlled quotas. No user funds were lost, and the network is now fully operational again, highlighting ongoing security challenges with cross-chain bridges in crypto.
