b14g: Approximately 97 million CORE tokens withdrawn without authorization; related contracts paused

According to TechFlow, on November 1, b14g's official announcement stated that approximately 97 million CORE tokens staked through the protocol were withdrawn without authorization and transferred to an attacker-controlled address. After the project team detected the incident, the affected contracts were paused.

b14g said tracking data shows approximately 68 million CORE tokens remain on the Core chain, and exchange partners have frozen approximately 9 million CORE tokens associated with the attacker. BTC staked through b14g remains time-locked on the Bitcoin network and was not affected by this incident.

The project team is investigating and tracing funds together with the Core team, security partners, and exchanges, coordinating freezing and recovery efforts, and plans to publish an incident analysis report covering the technical cause, impact, and follow-up arrangements for affected users.
