According to ChainCatcher, as disclosed by Slow Mist's Yu Xin, the incident of 5 million dollars worth of ZK tokens being stolen due to an administrator's private key leak has been resolved, with all stolen funds recovered. It is reported that during the event handling process, Matter Labs, the maintenance party of ZKSync's sole sequencer, intervened in the hacker's address and successfully restricted the transfer of 70% of the stolen funds. Matter Labs stated that the intervention was because the stolen ZK tokens were directly related to protocol governance.

Yu Xin said: "I understand, but I feel a bit of regret about some previous theft incidents on ZKSync that were not 'major events'."
