🚨 $RUNE is under pressure after a 10 ETH refund bug forced THORChain to halt swaps across 10 networks
The trigger wasn't a massive hack
It was a one-block Ethereum reorganization
THORChain credited a 10 ETH deposit that later disappeared from Ethereum's accepted chain history
When the swap failed, the protocol refunded funds its vault had never actually received
$ETH
⚠️ The automatic solvency checker caught the shortfall and triggered an emergency halt
The extra 10 ETH has since been returned
But recovering the money doesn't fix the underlying vulnerability
🔍 Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and seven other THORChain routes were paused as developers investigated
The underlying blockchains themselves were not shut down
$RUNE
📉 RUNE is down roughly 13% over 24 hours on Binance, while coin-denominated Futures OI has risen nearly 30%
That doesn't prove which side is driving the move
📌 Watch verified fixes, restored swap routes and actual protocol volume before assuming recovery
Restored funds ≠ restored security
