The Flow blockchain suffered an exploit in which an attacker was able to mint a large number of wrapped FLOW tokens, which they then swapped to tokens on other blockchains. Ultimately around $3.9 million was stolen, and the FLOW token dramatically plunged in price.

Some crypto exchanges, such as Upbit and Bithumb, halted withdrawals and deposits for FLOW after the exploit was discovered. Flow later confirmed the exploit, and said that validators "executed a coordinated halt" of the network to shut down the attack.
