Another attack targeting a virtual machine layer. The losses aren’t huge, but the direction of the attack is striking.

Initia has disclosed details of an attack exploiting a MoveVM-related vulnerability, resulting in losses of approximately $2.7 million. The team emphasized that the supply of INIT tokens was unaffected and that no additional tokens were minted.

For holders and ecosystem users, the short-term outlook is bearish: the market will first worry about fund outflows and the protocol’s credibility, putting pressure on the price of INIT and on-chain TVL. Investors are more likely to wait and see than to chase a rally. What will really determine the trend next is whether the team can quickly provide a patch, a compensation or asset recovery plan, and whether the bridge and contracts have any similar exposure. If the response lacks transparency, any rebound may not last.

Scenario 1: If a patch and compensation plan are put in place quickly, market sentiment may stabilize for now. Scenario 2: If similar exposure remains unclear, cautious sentiment will likely persist. Are you more focused on support for INIT during a pullback, or on whether funds return to the ecosystem?
