Across Protocol warns users to suspend use of the application, as multiple users report their wallets have been stolen

On Tuesday, the cross-chain bridge protocol Across Protocol issued a warning on platform X, stating that it is investigating a potential security incident and reminding users not to access its applications or connect wallets temporarily, nor to sign transactions or authorize. The protocol did not specify the exact nature of the incident and did not confirm whether its website had been compromised. Across is a cross-chain bridge protocol that allows users to transfer digital assets between Ethereum and other blockchain networks.

Multiple users reported financial losses on X. One user claimed to have lost 9,000 USDC, while another user reported losing 7,053 USDT through seven transactions on the Plasma network. A third user stated that their wallet was emptied after multiple uses of the cross-chain bridge and claimed that the website had been compromised. Across has requested transaction details from these users to conduct an investigation.
