Casper Network, a prominent blockchain platform, has announced the containment of a “significant security breach” that occurred recently. The team is actively working to resolve the issue, and operations have been temporarily suspended.
Casper Network Suspends Operations
On July 28, the Casper Network team informed the community about the security breach through an official post. The blockchain’s official account assured users that the breach has been contained and that a solution is being developed. Further updates are expected within the day.
#CasperFam, Casper Association, Casper Labs, and the Validators/community are actively working to resolve the issue. The network has been halted and the security breach is contained. The work on a solution is progressing. Further updates will be provided today.
On July 27, Casper Network, which has a market capitalization exceeding $230 million, notified its community about the breach and the subsequent network halt. The aim was to minimize the breach’s impact and work on a patch with the validators.
🚨 Dear Community, We discovered a significant security breach on the Casper Network. In order to minimize the effects of this security breach, we have worked with the validators to halt the network until this security breach has been patched. We will have further updates as we progress.
Despite the suspension of network operations, trading of CSPR, Casper Network’s native cryptocurrency, continues on various exchanges. However, CSPR has seen a decline of over 15% in the past week.
