‘No Evidence of Compromise on Our Signers’ Machines’

Wazirx, a prominent cryptocurrency exchange in India, has continued to provide an update regarding a recent cyberattack that resulted in the theft of over $230 million from its platform. On Thursday, the exchange announced on the social media platform X:

In light of the recent cyber attack on Wazirx, our preliminary investigation reveals no evidence of compromise on our signers’ machines. We are continuing to explore all possible sources of the breach.

Wazirx has claimed that the hacked wallet “was operated utilizing the services of Liminal’s digital asset custody and wallet infrastructure.” However, Liminal has refuted this, stating that the breach involved a wallet created outside of its ecosystem. Liminal maintains that its platform remains secure. Wazirx has also stated that INR funds were not affected by the breach.
