CrediX confirmed that following successful negotiations, the hacker responsible for the $4.5M exploit will return the stolen funds within 24-48 hours, with affected users to receive airdropped shares despite a severe multisig wallet and bridge compromise.
CrediX announced on social media that after a six-day incident involving a multisig wallet breach and exploitation of bridge role privileges on the Sonic network, the hacker has agreed to return $4.5 million within 24-48 hours. The funds will be compensated entirely by the CrediX treasury, while affected users will receive airdropped asset shares. This development aligns with a broader trend of negotiated recoveries in the DeFi space amidst significant security losses in 2025.
