Harmony plans to shut down the mainnet and migrate ONE to Ethereum, shifting towards AI video remixing business

Harmony has released two proposals to comprehensively shut down the mainnet launched in 2019, migrate the native token ONE to Ethereum, and shift towards an AI video "mashup economy" business. The team stated that the threats posed by national-level attackers and AI entities are the reasons for proposing the network shutdown plan.The migration plan proposes to take a snapshot of user wallets, staking delegations, validator rewards, smart contracts, and tokens within centralized exchanges at the last block of the network, airdropping new ONE to the same wallet addresses on Ethereum, with holders not needing to actively claim; delegated stakes and unclaimed rewards will be airdropped to their respective governance vaults. The total supply of ONE and the issuance rate will remain unchanged, with newly issued tokens intended for the new business and feedback from governors being considered.Multi-signature wallets, liquidity pools, and on-chain applications cannot be migrated. The team urges users to exit all smart contracts by September 10, 2026, and plans to publicly disclose token contracts, snapshot calculations, and airdrop scripts for auditing. Validators can stop running nodes starting from September 10 at 22:00 Beijing time. The team plans to compensate for the difference in issuance rewards between node shutdown and the final block of the network, establishing a one-time compensation pool of $1.372 million, to be paid in four quarters to validators and their delegators who timely shut down, sign agreements, retain stakes, and serve as governors of the new project.The new business will open up prompts and materials for users to create secondary content, with AI entities expanding video stories, and will recruit operators responsible for video generation, distribution, and content review. Harmony plans to subsidize GPU hardware in the first year and promote demand for video generation, with operators required to stake tokens to earn rewards based on service online time. The team plans to help operators generate up to $1 million in total revenue in the first year, provided they meet staking and online rate requirements; promoters can initially earn a 30% ongoing commission from each $10 monthly subscription they recommend. Both proposals are non-binding and the plans may still be adjusted.

The head of Zondacrypto faces fraud charges and seeks a reduced sentence in exchange for testimony

Przemysław Kral, the head of the Polish cryptocurrency exchange Zondacrypto, is reportedly facing criminal charges for involvement in a large-scale fraud and has begun cooperating with Polish prosecutors. According to Polish media Onet, Kral is seeking a reduced sentence in exchange for testimony, which may involve Zondacrypto's funding of right-wing political figures.Prosecutors estimate that Zondacrypto customers have lost at least 2.4 billion Polish złoty (approximately 650 million USD). Investigators claim that the exchange only used a portion of customer funds to purchase cryptocurrencies, while the remaining funds were transferred to private accounts controlled by Zondacrypto's management. Kral has remained silent on X since mid-April when he publicly disclosed that Zondacrypto could not access a cold wallet holding approximately 4,500 bitcoins. He denies misappropriating funds, stating that the private keys for the wallet were supposed to be handed over by Zonda's founder and former CEO Sylwester Suszek, who has been missing since 2022.Reports also state that Zondacrypto was a major sponsor of the Polish CPAC conference, which took place before the second round of the presidential election, ultimately won by Karol Nawrocki. The exchange spent 37 million złoty on advertising with the broadcasting station Telewizja Republika in the last year, while Kral's company also made payments to foundations associated with politicians Zbigniew Ziobro and Przemysław Wipler.

Harmony Protocol confirms the first round of issuance of 4 billion ONE and prepares to roll back

Harmony Protocol released an event update stating that an unauthorized ONE minting incident occurred. Investigations show that the attacker exploited a cross-shard receipt replay vulnerability, allowing processed cross-shard receipts to be executed multiple times, and minted ONE in empty blocks.The team is currently verifying two sets of impact data: early analysis indicates that the first round of minting involved 4 billion ONE, while the latest on-chain reconstruction shows that approximately 3.01 trillion ONE were issued to four attacker wallets through six forged cross-shard transactions. Harmony Protocol confirmed the first round of minting of 4 billion ONE, generated through two empty block accounting transactions that produced 1 billion and 3 billion ONE respectively, of which 2.8 billion ONE were subsequently transferred to other attacker addresses.The team has fixed the cross-shard receipt verification and pre-staking committee quorum verification vulnerabilities and deployed Mainnet v2026.1.1. Bridge services have been suspended, and Harmony Protocol is coordinating with validators, trading platforms, and LayerZero to freeze related funds, preparing to roll back the network to block 92,730,034 before the attack occurred. Currently, Shard 0 has been paused at block 92,753,555, and the official RPC may return a 502 error as a result.
