The Ronin Network bridge was exploited for roughly $12 million, due to a critical oversight in a contract upgrade.
For the Axie Infinity community and Ronin Network users, the words "bridge exploit" likely trigger PTSD.
After the monumental $624 million hack in March 2022, many hoped those days were behind them.
But on August 6, those old wounds were reopened as Ronin faced yet another attack.
This time the damage was significantly less, but the psychological impact resonates deeply.
It's as if the crypto world is watching a horror movie sequel, wondering if the protagonist has learned from past mistakes or if they're doomed to repeat them.
As Ronin stumbles yet again, we're left wondering, how many wake-up calls does a project need before it finally masters the basics of operational security?
