Thorchain rejects Bitget CEO's plea to block $387.5M hack wallets, sparking debate on decentralization.

After hackers stole $387.5 million from Bitget, CEO Gracy Chen urged Thorchain to block the attackers' wallets. Thorchain refused, citing its decentralized, permissionless nature similar to Bitcoin and Ethereum, sparking debate among crypto leaders. OKX founder Star Xu criticized Thorchain's decentralization, while Dashpay's Joel Valenzuela defended it. This controversy recalls Thorchain's role in moving $1.2 billion stolen in Bybit's 2025 hack, raising questions about its selective intervention in hacks. The debate highlights tensions between decentralization principles and practical responses to crypto thefts.
