Bankr also published recovery guidance for affected users. The instructions tell them to stop sending funds to compromised addresses, generate fresh seed phrases on clean devices, cancel any open spend permissions, and scan personal devices for malware or rogue browser extensions.
In one exchange, the Bankr agent informed a user that their BNKR and USDC balances on Base were already at zero and noted that confirmed on-chain transactions cannot be reversed.
The incident lands during a punishing stretch for the industry. May has already recorded 14 separate hacks across decentralized finance protocols, according to data tracked by DefiLlama. Total stolen crypto in 2026 has now passed $800 million.
