He also stated that user funds and market resolution systems remain secure despite the breach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chanal added that the team is actively investigating whether any additional internal credentials or secrets may have been exposed. As part of the response, Polymarket has also started rotating its backend services to strengthen security measures.#crypto#cryptpnews <a href=\"https:\/\/coinsignals.net\">https:\/\/coinsignals.net<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic\">https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blockchain investigator ZachXBT revealed earlier today that an administrator wallet linked to Polymarket may have been compromised on the Polygon network.
