anchored·582bLM…wA4wSummary
Bedrock Protocol is a multi-asset liquid restaking protocol developed by RockX, offering synthetic Bitcoin (uniBTC), liquid-staked ETH (uniETH), and IoTeX staking (uniIOTX). On September 27, 2024, the protocol suffered a critical smart contract exploit in which a flawed minting function allowed an attacker to mint uniBTC tokens at a 1:1 ETH-to-BTC ratio, draining approximately $2 million from DEX liquidity pools. Subsequent investigation by security firm Fuzzland, disclosed in June 2025, alleged that a former Fuzzland employee planted a supply-chain backdoor to execute the attack; Fuzzland stated it compensated Bedrock for losses and reported the matter to law enforcement.
