Berachain confirmed today on its official X account that HONEY minting and BEX liquidity pools have been temporarily suspended due to a vulnerability related to a Balancer V2 exploit affecting the ecosystem. The foundation emphasized the move is preventative to safeguard usersā funds.
The network validators have coordinated a planned halt of the Berachain network, allowing the core team to perform an emergency hard fork to address the exploit. The incident primarily impacted the Ethena/Honey tripool, involving complex smart contract transactions with non-native assets, which required a more extensive rollback/rollforward process than a standard hard fork. Users of BEX and HONEY tokens may experience temporary restrictions until all affected funds are fully recovered.
The Berachain validators have coordinated to purposefully halt the Berachain network as the core team performs an emergency hard fork to address Balancer V2 related exploits on the BEX.
This halt has been executed purposefully, and the network will be operational shortly uponā¦

The foundation indicated that operations will resume shortly once the security measures and fund recoveries are complete. Continuous updates and a full post-mortem report are expected to provide transparency on the situation.
