On October 31, an Ethereum one-block reorganization caused THORChain to mistakenly pay out 10 ETH that was never actually received by its vault. The protocol's automatic solvency checker detected the shortfall and halted ETH swaps, while node operators paused all chain activities as a precaution. The user who received the 10 ETH returned the funds, restoring the vault's solvency. Trading continues on some chains like AVAX and RUNE, but remains halted on others until fixes are implemented and safety is assured by node votes.
