According to him, after talks with authorities, the platform’s team \”narrowed the circle\” of those behind the attack.

\”In fact, at this particular moment, law enforcement has given us several hints about who, in their view, this could be,\” Zhao noted.

The head of the exchange added that cooperation with law enforcement is one way to \”make the space safer\”.

As reported on 6 October, the developers suspended the BNB Chain amid the BSC Token Hub bridge hack. The attacker managed to withdraw only $100 million of the stolen funds. The network was later restored.

The team announced a community vote on the next steps after the incident.

On 12 October, the BNB Chain developers announced a hard fork to restore the internal cross-chain infrastructure between the governance blockchain of the BNB Beacon Chain and the consensus layer of the BNB Smart Chain.
