WazirX Hack: Founder Nischal Shetty Reveals $230 Million Recovery Strategy by August 3

Considering the fact that it recently suffered a massive cyberattack that led to the loss of about $230 million, wazirx plans to take a community-driven approach to recovery. As stated by founder Nischal Shetty and the team, a detailed plan was unveiled where the losses are socialized across the users’ crypto portfolio with no tampering with the INR wallet balances. 

WazirX will decide to use the 55/45 model to speed up the reopening of the platform. This strategy enables the users to have direct access to 55 percent of their digital currencies for trading or withdrawal while 45 percent will be surrendered in order to transform it into equivalent USDT tokens which will be locked. 

It entails the possibility of having quicker access to funds than through the more conventional recovery proceedings, which have a tendency to subject users to protracted suspense. 

This partial lock is geared towards very fast accessibility of the funds while at the same time providing for the occasion where some of the users might wish to wait for their investments to build as their value and thus possible returns are likely to be higher than those for short term investments, which are most common. 

Shetty was insistent that allowing the distribution of losses is honest and prevents the platform from concentrating all chances of instability on one area of usage. 

The value of all the unlocked portfolios shall be calculated on the average prices from CoinMarketCap and from the selected global exchanges by July 21, 2024. 

When operations are resumed, another step is termed the long-term recovery, which starts after disaster recovery phase two. The plans involve the recovery of stolen assets, partnerships and external help, new token use cases and airdrops, and employing future earnings from the exchange to partly offset the losses as shown below. 

The WazirX team has set up a poll to engage the users to decide what should be done with their leftover assets. The advisory vote will be taken into account when making a final verdict on the recovery approach depending on ongoing investigations, the state of the platform’s liquidity, and other occurrences. The due date for the response is August 3, 2024.
