Aztec Network Hacked Again: $2M in Assets Stolen via Private Bridge

Aztec Network has fallen victim to its second hack in seven days, with thieves exploiting the company's private routing bridge to steal over $2 million in digital assets.

The attackers targeted the network's private bridge, which is used for transferring funds between different blockchains. The stolen assets included 1,158 ETH, 150,000 DAI, and 0.47 renBTC.

This incident highlights ongoing security challenges in the crypto sector, particularly for blockchain bridges and DeFi protocols, which are frequent targets due to their liquidity.
