**Executive Summary:** Purported white‑hat actors exploited a caching vulnerability in Liquid Network's confidential-transaction verification to mint unbacked L‑BTC and withdraw ~4,000 BTC (~$320M); Blockstream patched the bug and recovered ~85% of the funds while roughly 600 BTC (~$47M) remained under actor control.
