- 07:16Infini responds to the $50 million capital outflow incident: Lawsuit has been filed and asset freeze applied forInfini officially issued a statement regarding the previous loss of 50 million US dollars, stating that it has filed a lawsuit through the Hong Kong High Court and delivered court documents to the relevant address chain. The company has applied for the following legal measures: 1: Apply to the court for an asset freezing order, prohibiting the parties involved from transferring or disposing of related funds; 2: Requesting that those in control of relevant wallets disclose their identities so as to further track asset flows; 3: Applying for permission to serve outside jurisdiction in support of cross-jurisdictional legal actions. Infini stated that this outflow of funds was an abnormal transfer without multi-signature approval, with core reason being flaws in authority management. The company has restructured its contract authority architecture, introduced third-party audits and launched on-chain monitoring systems to strengthen governance mechanisms and ensure user asset safety. The platform emphasized that user funds were not affected; all deposit, withdrawal and payment card services are operating normally.
