Syndicate Labs suffered a private key leak attack, approximately 18.5 million SYND were transferred, and they promised full compensation to users

According to official news, Syndicate Labs disclosed that its cross-chain bridge contract was maliciously upgraded on two chains due to a private key leak. The attacker transferred and sold approximately 18.5 million SYND (about $330,000) and around $50,000 worth of user tokens. The incident only affected specific chains, while others were not impacted.Syndicate Labs stated that this attack involved multi-stage reconnaissance, infrastructure mapping, and careful execution, demonstrating a high level of technical complexity, and ruled out the involvement of internal personnel. The root cause was that the private key was stored in a password management tool without an additional layer of encryption, and the upgrade process did not utilize multi-signature or hardware signature mechanisms, nor did it have early warning and circuit breaker measures for contract upgrades.Syndicate Labs announced that it will fully compensate all affected users, including returning 18.5 million SYND and providing additional compensation, while also fully compensating affected application chain clients. The company has initiated security upgrade measures, including strengthening private key encryption, tightening access permissions, and plans to introduce hardware or multi-signature mechanisms and upgrade path monitoring to prevent similar incidents from occurring again.

Gate founder and CEO Dr. Han: AI and Web3 accelerate product iteration, driving continuous upgrades in user experience

Gate founder and CEO Dr. Han recently stated in an interview with The Block that the integration of AI and Web3 is accelerating efficiency improvements in the industry. The company has fully opened AI enterprise accounts for team members and is widely applying them in scenarios such as coding and development, significantly enhancing overall productivity.On this basis, the product iteration pace has been drastically compressed from "updates every few weeks" to "daily updates." Meanwhile, Web3 provides AI agents with automated payment capabilities, achieving low-cost and high-efficiency fund settlement through on-chain protocols. AI has also become an important tool for dealing with vast on-chain assets, capable of quickly completing liquidity screening and trading path optimization based on instructions.When discussing compliance and industry competition, Dr. Han pointed out that current crypto trading platforms have become homogenized in terms of product experience, but intense competition continues to drive overall service level improvements. Gate has currently achieved regulatory coverage in 81 jurisdictions worldwide, with compliant operations covering 46 states in the United States, and has obtained the European MiCA license, which covers 29 European markets, while also obtaining relevant licenses in Dubai, Japan, and Australia. Blockchain is gradually evolving from a single cryptocurrency carrier to an infrastructure that supports diverse assets.Dr. Han believes that with the ongoing integration of AI and Web3, Gate is continuously optimizing user experience and extending the platform into broader everyday use scenarios.
