The Sui community launched a seven-day onchain vote on May 27 to authorize recovery of $223 million in funds frozen after the Cetus protocol exploit. With 54 out of 56 validators voting in favor, the proposal has achieved the required thresholds for approval. If passed, the funds will be transferred to a secure multi-signature wallet controlled by six independent signers, including Cetus representatives, ecosystem stakeholders, and OtterSec. Cetus has committed to full user reimbursement and secured necessary capital including a loan facility from the Sui Foundation. The recovery plan includes independent verification of user claims by OtterSec before fund disbursement.
