"Purported white-hat hackers" withdrew around 4,000 of the 4,200 bitcoin held in its Liquid Federation wallet, Liquid Network said in a post on X.
"Liquid wallets will be impacted, and we're sorry for any inconvenience," Liquid Network said, adding that it has halted new transactions.
The funds were withdrawn via SideSwap, a settlement platform permitted to handle withdrawals from the network, though the key used in the process was not compromised, Liquid Network added.
