Gnosis Chain users affected by the Balancer v2 exploit in November can now claim their funds through a newly opened portal at gnosis-balancer-claim.eth.link. **Key Details:** - Claims process facilitated by Merkl - Portal addresses losses from November 2025 exploit - Follows temporary removal of third-party bridge liquidity that was implemented as a protective measure The redistribution represents a collaborative effort to restore funds to affected users following the security incident.

**Gnosis Chain node operators have until December 22, 16:00 CET** to implement a hard fork that could restore funds to victims of the Balancer exploit. The update releases are now available for download and execution. This hard fork represents a potential solution for recovering assets lost in the recent Balancer security incident. **Key details:** - Deadline: December 22, 16:00 CET - Purpose: Enable fund recovery for exploit victims - Action required: Node operators must update their systems The Balancer team previously attempted to contact the exploiter through on-chain messages, offering a path for voluntary fund return. This hard fork approach suggests the community is moving forward with a technical solution. Node operators can find additional information and participate in discussions through the official forum.
