Multichain Bridge Breakdown
Users first reported abnormal activity and stuck transactions on May 21, prompting exits from investors like Haskey and ecosystem stakeholders like Fantom in the following days. Uncertainty surrounding the cross-chain protocol reached a fever pitch after the team claimed a “Force Majeure” was the cause for delayed transactions.
The team also went silent amid rumors that CEO Zhaojun was arrested in Chain although the news was never confirmed. MULTI’s market value fell 60% during this period and exchanges like Binance halted deposits/withdrawals for Multichain-bridged tokens
On May 31, the Multichain (formerly Anyswap) team suspended service to 11 cross-chain bridges. The notice said that Zhaojun was still unreachable at the time and could not approve server access needed for protocol maintenance.
The team has done everything possible to maintain the protocol running, but we are currently unable to contact CEO Zhaojun and obtain the necessary server access for maintenance.
