Polymarket temporarily suspended trading on Thursday after an external service provider was compromised, although the provider was not named. Several traders reported losing up to $1.4 million in total, an amount that has not yet been independently verified. The platform says it has identified and fixed the issue, notified the relevant authorities and will fully reimburse affected users. The number of victims and the total amount stolen remain unknown, while trading was expected to resume that evening. In June, a similar attack resulted in the theft of about $3 million in pUSD from fewer than 15 accounts without compromising Polymarket’s smart contracts.
