Bedrock

Staking platform Bedrock stated that their platform was affected by a bug involving uniBTC, where users were able to trade a uniBTC for an ETH token.
Bedrock informed on September 27 through an X post that they are aware of the security breach and the problem is “addressed” by its team.
They also comforted the users that the rest of the funds are secured, and they have plans to roll out a reimbursement model shortly; they estimated that they lost about $2 million worth of digital assets.
⚠️Important Announcement from the Bedrock TeamWe want to inform you that the Bedrock team is aware of a security exploit involving uniBTC. The issue has been handled and funds are SAFU.We want to reassure everyone that the underlying wrapped BTCs and BTCs in reserves are…— Bedrock | Bitcoin Restaking LIVE (@Bedrock_DeFi) 
Still, a user on the platform mentioned that the bug enabled him to swap his Bitcoin for Ethereum. This is because the security exploit was targeted at the platform’s uniBTC – a synthetic token of Bitcoin for decentralized finance.
According to a current price index, Bitcoin is being sold at $65,449 per token, and Ethereum at $2,659. Taking Responsibility for the Bug 
Bedrock took responsibility for most of the loss it took stating that it was from decentralized exchange liquidity pools adding that the wrapped Bitcoin tokens and standard Bitcoin that are stored in reserve are safe.&nbsp;
At present, there are no further actions from our community any more than is currently expected during the daily lives of our societies. The community can be assured that all the deposited uniBTC are still safe, said Bedrock while also announcing that the platform will be publishing an after-action report shortly.
For now, the protocol team has detected the source of the vulnerability and is actively cooperating with their audit teams to try and recover the stolen tokens.
Bedrock was launched in February of the year 2023 by a Singapore-based <a href="https://news.todayq.com/samsung-sony-came-together-unite-to-boost-blockchain/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">blockchain </a>firm known as RockX. It was hence developed in a way that would make liquid staking appealing to institutional investors by addressing the know-your-customer and anti-money laundering requirements.
