HEMI’s security incident has reached the exchange’s top-up (recharge) entry. Whether the rebound can continue depends on whether trading convenience and trust can be restored.
According to a report by Gate News on September 9, Bithumb has listed HEMI as a trading caution asset and paused deposits, citing issues involving vulnerabilities in the reward distribution contract and information disclosure problems.
I think, in the next one or two days, how the restrictions are lifted will be more explanatory than an hour-by-hour price rebound. The incident’s impact still needs further handling to converge.
This new development is the exchange’s restriction. The attack occurred on September 7, so you can’t treat an old vulnerability as a new attack today.
In a report on September 8, Crypto Economy said that the Genesis Drop contract was exploited, causing approximately 124.5 million unclaimed tokens to be lost. This makes what to do with the affected balances a practical issue.
As of 12:20 Beijing time on September 9, $HEMI was at 0.0077 USDT, down 12.1% over the past 24 hours. This indicates that the price pressure inside the intraday rolling window is still there.
Minute-level data has also shown hour-scale rebounds, but the two windows differ—so you can’t use that to create a narrative that divorces news from price, nor can you infer that the risk has already been fully absorbed.
One plausible explanation is that the attack has already happened; after the price adjusts, it can be moved on from. But there’s no evidence yet that this is the market consensus.
Adding deposit restrictions creates another layer of problem: because the channel for external tokens entering Bithumb is limited, cross-platform transfers face another constraint.
If this kind of constraint persists, the efficiency for platforms to repair the price gap may decline, which could amplify volatility in HEMI’s local quotes. Prices on Binance could also be affected through sentiment transmission.
However, pausing deposits in itself doesn’t prove that liquidity across all platforms is worsening, nor can it directly lead to a single price direction.
Another path comes from the quality of disclosure. If the exchange still needs to assess the project’s response, participants will find it harder to judge the handling timeline, and may therefore demand a larger price discount.
Evidence supporting the opposite explanation should also be considered: Crypto Economy, citing the project’s recap, says that the other underlying infrastructure was unaffected, and that the affected contract balances have been zeroed out.
If the impact is truly limited to this contract, the scope for technical risk to spread may be limited, and even a short-term rebound could include a reassessment of the boundary.
But a narrower technical impact range, along with appropriate handling of deposit recovery and the damaged balances, are still different progress.
So I’m more concerned with trust repair during the period when restrictions remain. Relying only on a price rebound is not enough to support the explanation that the incident is over.
If Bithumb clearly restores deposits, and the project simultaneously discloses an actionable plan for handling balances, the view that short-term pressure remains dominant would be significantly weakened. If the restriction continues and explanations remain incomplete for a long time, HEMI will still have to bear uncertainty about the resolution.
