According to Foresight News, the Bitcoin ecosystem project ALEX released an update on the theft, saying it will continue to work with exchanges to monitor and track the attacker's movements. Based on its findings and discussions with security partners, it seems unlikely that the attacker will negotiate.

Officials said that the current priority is to recover a total of 13.7 million STX and develop a financial grant plan to support affected users. Details of the plan will be announced soon.

Foresight News previously reported that the Bitcoin ecosystem project ALEX was hacked on May 16. According to CertiK monitoring, a total of approximately US$4.3 million worth of assets have been transferred to the address starting with 0x2705.
