All users are recommended to stop using Multichain services and revoke all contract approvals.
Multichain is a multi-party computation (MPC) bridge network that mints derivative assets on the second chain after verifying that assets have been locked on the first chain. The network asserts that the cryptographic keys controlling this procedure are divided into numerous shards and distributed around the system, prohibiting any one individual or entity from making unauthorized withdrawals.
Nevertheless, during the past few weeks, the platform has been dealing with unidentified technical issues, resulting in slow transaction processing and Binance pausing withdrawals of various Multichain derivative tokens.
