In early August, the Nomad bridge appeared to have experienced a security exploit that allowed hackers to systematically drain the bridge’s funds over a long series of transactions. Nearly the entire $190.7 million in crypto has been removed from the bridge.

To date, a total of more than $30 million stolen has been recovered by Nomad, but it is still a small number compared to the amount that the platform suffered. The company promised that no legal action would be taken against individuals who returned the tokens to a designated return address, and Nomad made the announcement that it would pay a 10% reward to everyone who did so.

Previously, at the end of August, a transaction was detected on-chain that the attackers transferred $7.5 million worth of tokens (the value at the time) to an unknown wallet address.

Over 2 weeks ago, the Nomad Bridge was relaunched. The team has been putting a lot of effort into recovering funds and implementing the required adjustments to properly restart the Nomad Token Bridge ever since it was hacked. Holders of madAssets could be able to use the updated bridge to retrieve their recovered funds after the relaunch.
