Triple-A confirms treasury-wallet breach after losses reach $11.8M

Breach Timeline and Client Funds

Stablecoin payments firm Triple-A confirmed that unauthorized access to its treasury wallets resulted in the loss of company-owned digital assets. On Monday, the Singapore-based company said it detected the unauthorized access on Saturday and temporarily placed certain services into maintenance mode for about three hours while it secured the affected infrastructure.

Triple-A said client funds were not affected because it does not custody digital assets on behalf of customers and keeps client funds separately in trust accounts with safeguarding institutions.

Financial Impact

Triple-A did not disclose the amount lost or explain how the wallets were compromised. Onchain investigator Specter previously estimated the losses at about $11.8 million. The company said the financial impact was limited to specific operational accounts and would be absorbed through its treasury reserves. It added that all services had been restored and transactions and settlements were processing normally.

Investigation and Response

Triple-A said it was working with cybersecurity specialists, blockchain forensics firms and authorities, including the Singapore Police Force, to investigate the incident, trace the assets and support recovery efforts.
