According to ME News, on September 28 (UTC+8), DYORSWAP released an official statement regarding the fraudulent GIWA mainnet 9134 incident, clarifying that this event was not caused by a vulnerability in the DYOR contract, but rather by a fraudulent network impersonating GIWA Chain 9134. This network featured a bridge and batcher resembling OP Stack and was deployed on September 27, 2026, at 02:10:59 (UTC+8). Approximately 8.5 hours prior to deployment, the address received around 0.045 ETH from a ChangeHero-related address. Data shows that a total of 1,335 addresses deposited approximately 767.65 ETH into it, with about 766.25 ETH subsequently withdrawn via the cross-chain bridge. DYORSWAP stated that it has already compensated affected users with over 200 ETH from its own funds. Additionally, the team is currently tracking the bridge deployer, funding sources, early test wallets, and the subsequent movement of the stolen funds. (Source: ODAILY)
