Bitget revises its September 24 hack estimate to $387.5 million in affected assets. The increase does not mean that an additional $35.9 million was stolen. Bitget says the revised figure comes from a more complete reconciliation of transactions linked to the original attack, including crypto assets on Zcash and TRON that were not included in its first estimate.
