TRX Polymarket halts trading and pauses relayer after security breach
Polymarket suspended trading and paused relayer actions after a third-party provider was breached and users reported funds leaving their accounts, according to CoinDesk, Decrypt and The Defiant. Decrypt reported, citing Arkham data, that a suspected attacker wallet holds about $2.65 million in POL. The Defiant reported that existing orders can still be canceled while new buy and sell orders are blocked, and that a trader reported an $800,000 account drain.
