Solana DEX Stabble Urges Users to Temporarily Withdraw Liquidity

Stabble said the withdrawal request remains a precaution after suspected involvement by a North Korean IT worker, adding that no unauthorized outflow had been confirmed as of 00:55 on the 8th.

Fact Check
The claim has two key parts: (1) Stabble urged users/LPs to withdraw liquidity temporarily, and (2) Stabble said the request was precautionary after suspected involvement by a North Korean IT worker, with no unauthorized outflow confirmed as of 00:55 on April 8. CoinPost directly matches all of these elements, including the temporary withdrawal request, the precautionary framing, and the specific '00:55 on April 8' no-outflow statement. PANews independently corroborates the same substance, saying the alert followed discovery that a former employee appeared to be a North Korean developer and that no attack had yet occurred, making the warning preventive. The Block is the cited upstream report, but because it could not be fetched in this run, it remains unvalidated. Overall, the available evidence strongly supports the statement, though confidence is limited by inability to directly validate the X posts or The Block page.
