Timeline of Fantom, Multichain

Circle, the official issuer of USDC, the second largest stablecoin by circulating supply, has frozen $63 million from the Multichain hack. Compiled Etherscan data on July 7 shows that the stablecoin issuer froze $27.65 million, $30.1 million, and $5.5 million in three transactions, hampering the hacker's cash-out efforts.

Cross-Chain Router Protocol Multichain has issued an urgent warning to its users after approximately $126 million worth of cryptocurrencies were drained from its platform. The service has suspended operations, with all bridge transactions currently stuck on the source chains.

Fantom (FTM) price has been experiencing a dip in the past few days. This fall appears to have worsened in the last 24 hours due to FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) spreading amongst investors.

Key Points: Fantom Foundation has provided reassurance to FTM token holders, addressing concerns related to Multichain's issues. The foundation stated that FTM tokens, including those on wFTM, FTM ERC-20, and Opera, have never been released or managed by Multichain, ensuring their immunity from any potential impact.

On Thursday, July 6, the multichain bridge witnessed abnormally large outflows in what seems to be a multi-million dollar exploit of the platform. A few hours later, Multichain protocol announced that they have suspended the operations.

LayerZero Labs introduces USDC, USDT, WETH, and WBTC to Fantom with support from the ecosystem, bringing stability and longevity for projects, bridging available via Stargate Finance.

Binance, the leading cryptocurrency exchange, recently temporarily stopped processing withdrawals and deposits for several Multichain-bridged assets. In a Twitter post, the platform stated that these restrictions would take effect from the 7th of this month and remain in place for the foreseeable future.

Binance, the largest crypto exchange by volume, withdrew support for eight Multichain bridge tokens, effective July 7, 2023. The decision comes after the previous suspension in May due to a partial pause in the functioning of cross-chain routes in the Multichain (MULTI) protocol.

LunarCrush named Fantom [FTM] as the coin of the day based on its social and market performance. However, traders may still need to stay cautious despite all indicators in favor of the altcoin.

As the crypto market enters a new phase, the stage is set for a potential bull run driven by the increasing wave of institutional adoption. The recent surge in interest from major financial players has infused a renewed sense of optimism among crypto enthusiasts.
