Fogo resumed its Layer 1 blockchain mainnet after halting operations due to a security breach that led to the theft of 400 million FOGO tokens. The project recovered and permanently removed 237 million of the stolen tokens from circulation, with efforts ongoing to recover the remaining 163 million through collaboration with centralized exchanges and law enforcement.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Crypto & Web3.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a reopened market with partial token recovery after a large theft paused a blockchain mainnet. Use this reset to approach exchanges and law enforcement partnerships to secure client assets and safeguard future operations.
