A group claiming responsibility for the Liquid Network exploit has taken a bold step by posting demands directly on the Bitcoin blockchain. Using the OP_RETURN feature, the individuals behind the incident are asking for a 10 percent bounty in exchange for their cooperation.

The situation is intensifying as the group issued a warning to Liquid Network users. They claim that if their demands are not met, they could potentially trigger further losses for asset holders. This public ultimatum has put significant pressure on the Blockstream team to address the security breach quickly.

Traders and network participants are now watching closely to see how the company responds to these threats. The use of the blockchain to communicate such demands is a rare and aggressive move that highlights the ongoing risks in network security. Users should stay alert for official updates from Blockstream regarding the safety of their assets.
