OpenSea says systems unaffected by Limit Break exploit

September 25, 2026

OpenSea, via its official account, retweeted CTO Chris Maddern's update on the Limit Break / Magic Eden incident response, emphasizing that no OpenSea systems or contracts are affected. The clarification came amid concerns after an exploit in Limit Break's Payment Processor V2, the NFT trading protocol Magic Eden used for EVM settlements in 2024 before discontinuing it.

The incident stems from legacy wallet approvals tied to Magic Eden's former EVM marketplace, not OpenSea infrastructure.
OpenSea's statement was aimed at reassuring users that Marketplace and its contracts were not involved.
