Man, I just found out that Flow suffered a major hack at the end of December, diverting about 3.9 million dollars from the network. But the interesting part is that users' deposits remained intact, no one lost anything in their accounts.



The attack exploited a vulnerability in the execution layer, and the validators managed to stop it quickly before it got worse. The Flow Foundation team has already released a protocol fix, and now they are coordinating the upgrade on the nodes. Basically, they will revert to a point before the hack to clean up these unauthorized transactions.

It's like that scare that passes quickly, you know? Protocol compromised, but users safe. These Flow hacks show why security is everything in this industry. Did you follow this when it happened?
