Polymarket paused trading on its international site on Thursday, Oct. 29, after identifying an issue it said stemmed from a compromised third-party provider. Trading resumed about 27 minutes later, after Polymarket said it had fixed the issue. The company said it would fully reimburse affected traders; it did not say reimbursements had been completed.
The pseudonymous developer 0xngmi said they tracked approximately $2.7 million in losses attributed to the exploit and that users’ wallet seed phrases remained safe.
