The Flow Foundation officially announced the progress of the security incident resolution, confirming the permanent destruction of 87.4 billion counterfeit FLOW tokens, marking the complete technical resolution of the security incident.

The related destruction operations were executed on-chain by the community governance committee, and all seized counterfeit assets have been completely withdrawn from circulation, in accordance with the independent recovery plan disclosed in the previous technical review. Currently, the validation nodes completed the deployment of security patches within 24 hours after the incident, and the network has continued to operate normally since then, with additional security measures introduced at the protocol level. Furthermore, network operation data shows that Flow has returned to a fully healthy state, processing over 3 million transactions in the past week, with all core DeFi protocols operating normally. With the completion of all security repairs, future efforts will focus on ecosystem expansion and product development. Previously, it was reported that Flow suffered a loss of $3.9 million due to a hacker attack, but user deposits were unaffected. In mid-January, its community governance committee completed the final recovery of unliquidated counterfeit FLOW tokens from centralized exchanges, including Binance and HTX.
