Alex Protocol, identified a self-listing verification bug, leading to the drain of several digital assets. The Alex Lab Foundation promptly announced a reimbursement plan. They aim to restore user trust by fully compensating asset holders.
Affected assets include 8.4 million Stacks (STX), 21.85 Stacks Bitcoin (sBTC), and 149,850 USDC among others. Reimbursements, coordinated by the Foundation, use the average on-chain exchange rates from a four-hour window on June 6. Payments in USDC will occur within seven business days of claim verification.
