Ben PerrinHOST
That's a long time to wait to be like, I wonder if we'll get that backing again.
Ben PerrinHOST
And part of me If it had quickly turned around and Blockstream was like, listen, all right, we're dealing with it.
Ben PerrinHOST
We're getting the funding in there.
Ben PerrinHOST
They got it in pretty quick.
6 MINS LATER
Ben PerrinHOST
So anyways...
Ben PerrinHOST
Yeah, it is what it is.
Ben PerrinHOST
One other thing in regards to Blockstream that I'll just quickly bring up here.
Ben PerrinHOST
Another update for Core LN.
Mike SchmidtHOST
Olex.
Oleksandr KurbatovGUEST
Hey, Olex, Blockstream Research.
Oleksandr KurbatovGUEST
The majority of my time I'm working on PQ stuff, but today it's like a different one.
Nishant BansalGUEST
Nishant.
David BennettHOST
The milestone follows the restoration of swaps between Bitcoin and LBTC at a one-to-one rate through participating providers several weeks ago, it said.
David BennettHOST
Blockstream CEO Adam Back, whose company develops the technology behind Liquid, posted a screenshot of the network's dashboard showing assets matching liabilities at 100% with a reserve deficit of 0.00 BTC.
David BennettHOST
Users running their own Liquid nodes can verify the Federation's reserves directly, the Federation said.
David BennettHOST
It did not say how the shortfall left by the hack was covered.
David BennettHOST
Launched by Blockstream in 2018.
David BennettHOST
Liquid is a Bitcoin sidechain, a separate blockchain, that runs alongside Bitcoin designed for faster and more private transfers.
David BennettHOST
Users lock up Bitcoin in a wallet controlled by the Federation, a group of exchanges and other crypto companies that run the network, and receive the same amount of LBTC in return.
David BennettHOST
He said then that the hacked funds remained under investigation, so essentially added back said nothing.
Gareth JenkinsonHOST
later today net outflows have cooled to 3.3 billion down more than half from their peak then some rare good news on the security front the liquid federation says bitcoin backing for lbtc is fully restored one to one again nearly two months after 320 million dollar exploit drained around 4000 btc the attacker returned most of that the next day but held back 600 bitcoin and demanded a 10% bounty.
Gareth JenkinsonHOST
Blockstream, led by Adam Back, refused.
Gareth JenkinsonHOST
Over the past week, board members Samson Mo tracked a series of deposits, 50, then 300, then 250 BTC, all sourced from Blockstream, closing the gap And Liquid says, no keys were compromised.
Gareth JenkinsonHOST
If you missed that, we did actually sit down with Samson Mo a couple of weeks ago while we were in Lugano for Plan B conference and the Future of Capital Markets Summit with Bitfinex Securities.
Gareth JenkinsonHOST
You can find that interview on the Blocks YouTube channel, or you can go and check out my ex-account at Gaza underscore Jenks.
CalleGUEST
Anything that locks up value will be targeted.
CalleGUEST
So anything that is a layer or is a side chain, as we've seen recently with Blockstream and Liquid, and anything that is complex, such as Lightning.
CalleGUEST
has way higher probability of having issues.
CalleGUEST
So I think those those will be the main targets.
Vlad CosteaHOST
We have seen what happened to it.
Vlad CosteaHOST
It had an inflation bug of its own and It's tragic, but also for many points of view, it's tragic because Blockstream were like the grown-ups in the room telling everyone that they're bad shitcoiners and bad actors.
Vlad CosteaHOST
And then they turned out to be incompetent once AI was able to look at their code.
Vlad CosteaHOST
And we also have like Fediments and all sorts of concepts which are basically banking reinvented.
CarlHOST
We're marching forward.
CarlHOST
We're going to keep helping Bitcoin companies because I really do think like the next Square or the next Strike, the next Blockstream, the next Unchain, the next Stacker News, the next ZapRite is out there.
CarlHOST
We're going to keep helping them because that's how you spur great competition in the ecosystem.
CarlHOST
You got to keep it moving.

We're marching forward.

Samson MowGUEST
Like what we had earlier with cold card, lightning...
Samson MowGUEST
What else? Liquid, everything.
Samson MowGUEST
It was kind of all attacking Bitcoin first because if you think about it, Bitcoin is this massive bug bounty.
Samson MowGUEST
If there's any vulnerability in any part of the surrounding ecosystem, then that's free Bitcoin, right? So that's why we saw it being hit so hard.
Samson MowGUEST
And I think...
Samson MowGUEST
Most of it is passed now, fingers crossed.
Samson MowGUEST
But at least for Liquid, we've been hardening the security of Liquid after the hack.
Samson MowGUEST
Everything was restored now.
