Berachain has published impacted addresses and balances from the recent exploit, with a claims page expected later this week excluding white-hat allocations.

Summary

Berachain disclosed the specific addresses and token balances affected by the recent Balancer v2/BEX exploit, including direct BEX deposits and vault provider deposits. The platform noted potential minor calculation differences in returning funds. A claims page is planned for later this week and will exclude allocations to white-hat participants involved in securing the platform.

Terms & Concepts
  • Balancer v2: A decentralized exchange protocol's second version, focused on capital efficiency and programmable liquidity pools.
  • BEX: Berachain's native exchange platform, affected by the recent exploit, with recovery pending contract unlock via hard fork.
  • Hard fork: A blockchain upgrade that changes protocol rules, potentially creating incompatibility with previous versions.
