Huobi And Gala Games To Compensate Victims Of PNetwork Hack With $50 Million
Huobi and Web3 gaming project Gala Games have announced that they will compensate victims of a hack on pNetwork that occurred last fall. The two companies have stated that they will be reimbursing victims with a total of $50 million in crypto and software licenses, with the compensation to be distributed within the next few weeks.
Huobi has pledged $25 million in compensation, consisting of $15 million in USDT and $10 million in equity. Gala Games has promised $25 million in node compensation. The reimbursement is intended for those who lost funds during the hack, which saw a large amount of GALA tokens dumped onto the market, causing the price to plummet.
The hack was eventually claimed by pNetwork, a cross-chain bridge project for the Binance Smart Chain. At the time, pNetwork had discovered a vulnerable pGALA pool on PancakeSwap and had taken it upon themselves to attack the vulnerability to prevent malicious actors from exploiting it. However, despite the attack being a โwhite hatโ one, the failure to communicate this to the community resulted in significant losses for GALA holders.
The compensation is just one of the measures that Huobi and Gala Games are taking to address the issue from last year. In March, Gala Games filed a lawsuit seeking $27.7 million in damages from pNetwork. Huobi has now also announced its participation in the lawsuit in order to โrecover losses, protect reputation, and benefit users.โ
It is important to note that this incident highlights the risks associated with investing in cryptocurrencies and decentralized finance projects, as they are still largely unregulated and susceptible to hacks and other security breaches. While the compensation offered by Huobi and Gala Games is a positive step towards remedying the losses suffered by victims of the pNetwork hack, it also serves as a reminder to investors to exercise caution when investing in this emerging and volatile market.

Gala Games Pursues $27.7 Million In Damages In Lawsuit Against pNetwork
Gala Games, a pioneer in Web3 entertainment, hasย filedย a lawsuit against pNetwork, a cross-chain bridge provider, for negligence and tortious interference with business expectancy.
The lawsuit alleges that pNetwork failed to address a misconfiguration in its code, which caused a false appearance of a $1 billion hack, leading to a disruption in the market for Galaโs native token, GALA. Gala claims that the incident required a substantial expenditure of over $25 million to address the aftermath of the breach and caused reputational harm due to the market disruption.
The lawsuit states that pNetwork admitted to mistakenly leaking a governance key when deploying the pGALA bridge, which was later used by an attacker to breach the pGALA contract on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC). The recovery plan presented and executed by pNetwork failed to recover the assets that were the subject of the attack, causing further harm. Gala alleges that pNetwork sought to increase the utilization of its platform by issuing pGALA and that pNetwork benefited from its association with Gala Games. Therefore, pNetwork owed Gala a duty of care to avoid causing harm to the company or tokens.
The GALA tokens are an essential component of Galaโs business, and pNetwork was aware of the prospective economic advantage in the value of GALA tokens as the entire function of pGALA is tied to the utility of GALA tokens itself. When pNetwork negligently and recklessly caused a security breach and intentionally carried out a failed recovery plan that caused further harm, it negatively impacted the marketโs perception of Gala and the GALA tokens, damaged Galaโs reputation, and caused harm to its relationships with exchanges.
Gala is seeking $27,671,934.80 for the out-of-pocket costs due to the breach, additional compensation for injuries, punitive damages, and other relief the court would deem just and equitable.
The breach occurred on November 3, 2022, when pNetwork informed Gala that the contract on the Binance Smart Chain had been breached due to pNetwork engineers mistakenly leaving a key in the public GitHub repository. pNetwork proposed a plan to deactivate the bridge and then emergency whitehat exploit their own contract. Gala and pNetwork contacted exchanges to alert them to the breach and immediately suspended deposits and withdrawals of the BEP-20 all pGALA. Following this, pNetwork initiated their whitehat attack, which was supposed to last for 2-3 minutes.
Gala Games is a Web3 games company that uses decentralization, player ownership, and reward economies to create a revolutionary new way of gaming. The company has dozens of games on the horizon and several already in various stages of presale or beta play. Gala Games is quickly becoming the world leaders in own-your-experience gaming.
