“I’m excited to see Multichain choose to integrate RSK as its first Bitcoin layer 2. RSK is home to the fastest-growing DeFi for Bitcoin ecosystem with protocols that are built to last and provide real solutions to the issues users face in centralized finance. This is a huge step forward in interoperability for RSK that means thousands of new users can access these DeFi services.”
- Multichain secured $60 million in December in a seed funding round led by Binance Labs.
- A month later, the cross-chain protocol suffered a major hack after attackers managed to exploit a vulnerability.
- As a result, $3 million in cryptocurrency was drained during the process.
- However, one white hacker reportedly returned approximately $813,000 worth of ETH.
