TechFlow news — Ethereum on-chain researcher bartek.eth discovered that a Multichain's Ethereum custody address, used for bridging assets to Fantom, holds 74 million DAI. However, the total amount of DAI currently minted by Multichain on Fantom exceeds 100 million, creating a discrepancy between the two chains.
Under the cross-chain bridge's "Lock-Mint" mechanism, every unit of asset minted on the destination chain should correspond to an equivalent amount locked on the source chain. The exact reason behind this current DAI discrepancy remains unclear.
According to bartek, if the excess bridged DAI is eventually redeemed properly, regular users' custodied assets could be at risk.Original link
