TAC Sidechain Halts After Supply Exploit As TON Mainnet Remains Separate
TAC, a Cosmos-based EVM sidechain connected to the TON ecosystem, has halted block production after a supply-related exploit.
The incident occurred on August 22, according to public incident materials. TAC connects Ethereum-based applications with the TON network, but the exploit affected the TAC sidechain and its token supply, not the main TON blockchain.
That distinction is critical.
The TON mainnet should not be described as halted or compromised based on this incident. The affected network is TAC, an EVM sidechain connected to TON.
TL;DR
- TAC halted block production after a supply exploit.
- The incident affected the TAC sidechain and its token supply.
- TON mainnet was not the halted network.
Exploit Details
TAC halted block production after identifying a security exploit tied to token supply.
A halt is a serious operational step. It means the network stopped producing blocks while the team investigated or contained the issue. For users, that can affect transfers, applications, liquidity, and confidence until operations resume.
