Taiko said on July 2, 2026, through its official X account that bridge operations had resumed after a $1.7 million attack. The team also said users were made whole, making bridge recovery and user compensation the central update.
Step 4 is done. The bridge is open.
You can move funds to and from Taiko again. Our response is complete: the network is fully restored and every user is whole. Any limits in place won't affect normal use.

The update affects users who rely on Taiko’s bridge for asset movement across networks. While the bridge is back online, the incident still leaves a clear operational question: how the exploit happened, what controls were changed and whether reopened infrastructure now carries stronger safeguards.
The next point to watch is whether Taiko publishes a fuller postmortem or additional security review. For now, the official message marks a restart of service rather than the end of scrutiny, so technical transparency becomes the immediate follow-up test.
