Foresight News reports that Balancer announced that the white hat rescue fund application window for the Balancer V2 incident on November 3, 2025, opened today and will last for 180 days. Users can view their eligible amount, sign the relevant terms, and apply to recover the tokens. The fund distribution method follows BIP-892, with funds allocated only to liquidity providers of each pool, distributed proportionally based on BPT holdings at the snapshot block. All cash payments are in physical tokens. Affected users must apply within 180 days; assets not claimed by then will become dormant, and future distribution will be decided through governance proposals. The investigation is ongoing. Any recovered funds in the future may be allocated to affected users after passing Balancer’s governance process.
Foresight News previously reported that on November 3 at 15:46, Balancer V2 was attacked due to a vulnerability, resulting in losses of approximately $121.18 million. Due to coordinated responses from various parties, multiple security measures were deployed after discovering the issue, protecting or recovering about $45.7 million of user funds.
