WazirX, India's largest cryptocurrency exchange, confirmed that its laptops were not compromised during a recent $230 million cyberattack, according to a third-party forensic report by Mandiant, a subsidiary of Google. The exchange and its wallet provider, Liminal Custody, have denied any breach of their IT systems while attributing the attack to Liminal Custody. Following the incident, WazirX has taken steps to restore investor balances and has canceled all open orders on its platform. The exchange plans to resume Indian rupee (INR) withdrawals in phases starting August 26, 2024, while crypto withdrawals will remain suspended. This decision comes after significant backlash over their recovery plan and aims to address ongoing issues with balances related to the hack.
