Bitget launches 5% bounty program after Circle and Tether freeze $318,000 USDT and USDC tied to Bitget Exploiter 8, with attacker addresses still holding over 63,000 ETH.

According to @PeckShieldAlert, approximately $2.4 million was recovered by burning the hacker’s $pxETH, with the same amount minted back to the Redacted Cartel multisig on Dec 1, 2025, source: @PeckShieldAlert. The burn removes attacker-held pxETH from circulation while the remint consolidates the recovered amount under the Redacted Cartel multisig for custody, source: @PeckShieldAlert. Traders can monitor the Redacted Cartel multisig for subsequent on-chain transfers related to pxETH to gauge post-recovery flows, source: @PeckShieldAlert.
