Polygon is thinking about this hard fork move to snag back around 70.49 million POL that got yoinked in those wild security slips from polymarket and binance, then shove it straight into the recovery wallets the platforms picked out 🖤
The Fresh Hard Fork Scheme 🦇
The whole idea wants polygon pos validators to greenlight this synced network upgrade that zeros out five sketchy attacker addresses and pumps the exact same bags into verified recovery spots. Those funds are stuck rn but the current block list just can’t send em home to the real owners fr. The drama kicked off on october 29 and 30 with about 23.86 million pol tied to polymarket and 46.63 million more linked to binance. Validators slapped the dodgy addresses onto their bor block lists as a quick fix tho it ain’t permanent at all. Those lists only load on startup so every tweak needs a full deploy and restart which feels kinda clunky.
Locked Tokens Left Out 🌑
This fork only touches native pol in those five addresses while everything else stays safe from the drama lol. Binance already got their stolen usdt frozen by tether so the upgrade skips that mess entirely. Polygon is straight up calling this an extreme step that shouldn’t turn into some normal tool for grabbing user funds. It still has to clear governance first then test on amoy before validators vote it live.
