Bitcoin bridge service Boltz indefinitely suspends exchange services due to uncontrolled AI attack speed

According to Decrypt, non-custodial Bitcoin exchange service provider Boltz announced an indefinite suspension of its Bitcoin exchange services, as the iteration speed of AI-assisted attacks has exceeded its team's vulnerability patching capability. Boltz stated that automated AI probing attacks have continued to increase over the past few months, and multiple vulnerability exploitation incidents have been handled, but recently the pace of attacks has significantly accelerated, and it is suspected that multiple well-resourced attack organizations are simultaneously launching attacks against its platform, rendering the team unable to operate safely during the patching period. Currently, Boltz's TVL is approximately $262,000. Since the platform adopts a non-custodial architecture, users retain custody of their funds throughout the process. The team confirmed that no user funds are at risk, and API refund channels and unilateral refund functions remain operational.
