Bitget CEO: The stolen funds have been adjusted to US$387.5 million, and a withdrawal plan will be announced on September 26

PANews reported on September 25 that Bitget CEO Gray Chen issued a statement stating that after the security incident on September 24 (UTC), on-chain tracking confirmed that the attacker's address received a total of US$387.5 million in assets, an increase from the previously announced US$351.6 million. The revised amount included previously incomplete statistics of Zcash and TRON assets, and was not newly stolen funds. There were no further unauthorized transfers after the incident, and the incident is still under control.

Gray Chen said that Bitget has launched the Recovery Bounty Program, providing a 5% bounty to participants who voluntarily assist in freezing the attacker's funds or recovering funds, and has launched a real-time tracking panel, an information submission portal and an attacker's address API, and also supports the submission of reports through Bybit's Lazarus Bounty platform. We are fully preparing to resume withdrawals, and the specific withdrawal plan will be announced before 4:00 (UTC) on September 26.
