ASI Alliance confirms FET converter exploit: about $1.56 million taken

ASI Alliance confirmed on September 20, 2026 that an exploit affected the architecture used for token conversion and migration. An unauthorized party reportedly withdrew about $1.56 million worth of FET, while the organization said it was working with security partners on the investigation.

What is known

According to the Alliance's statement, treasury and exchange wallets were not involved. FET held directly by users or through exchanges was also described as unaffected, and no specific action was requested from holders at the time of the announcement.

What is not yet known

The complete root cause has not been made public. It is important to separate the facts confirmed by ASI Alliance from later technical reconstructions by third parties. The Alliance said that a full report would follow after the investigation.

Why it matters

Bridges, converters and migration systems can concentrate technical and operational risk because they connect different token standards and networks. The incident is a reminder to evaluate these transition layers separately from the security of the underlying token or exchange.
