Hyperbridge Exploit: 1B Bridged DOT Minted, $237K Extracted

Hyperbridge suffered a critical exploit allowing an attacker to mint 1 billion bridged DOT tokens on Ethereum, extracting $237K in value. The breach triggered a 6% price decline in native Polkadot (DOT) and generated 4.7x above-average news volume within 3 hours. Cross-chain bridge vulnerabilities remain a material risk vector for ecosystem-connected assets.
