Binance and Polymarket propose a Polygon hard fork to recover approximately 70.49 million stolen POL, worth about $6.8 million.
Odaily, citing Cointelegraph, reports that addresses associated with Polymarket account for 23.86 million tokens, while Binance-associated addresses account for 46.63 million. The tokens would be transferred from five attacker-controlled addresses to verified recovery wallets designated by the two platforms, with the total POL supply remaining unchanged. Block producers have blocked transactions from the affected addresses, but this is only a temporary measure and cannot return the funds to their owners.
· The proposal requires governance approval and will first be tested on the Polygon Amoy testnet. It will be discussed on November 5; the mainnet hard fork date has not been set.
· Whether the hard fork can proceed depends on the governance vote.
Would you check the governance vote progress or the testnet results first?
