dYdX Bridge Closes Leaving 45000 Investors $25M Lost

Over 45,000 Investors Locked Out of $25 Million in ethDYDX Tokens

  • More than 45,000 investors are unable to access $25 million worth of ethDYDX tokens.
  • The dYdX migration bridge was closed on June 13, leaving many token holders stranded.
  • The decision to shut down the bridge followed a community vote in December, leading to the end of support for the wethDYDX smart contract.
  • Over 41.6 million ethDYDX tokens are now permanently excluded from supply calculations.
  • The total supply of DYDX has been reduced to approximately 958.3 million tokens.

This situation highlights significant challenges for investors in decentralized finance (DeFi), particularly regarding governance and communication within blockchain projects. The inability to convert their assets has left many without options for trading or utilizing their holdings.

As a result of the bridge closure, over $25 million in ethDYDX tokens is effectively locked out from circulation, impacting more than 45,000 investors. (Source)
