The exchange covered the full shortfall, approximately $2 million, from its own treasury. In other words, the platform paid for its own mistake so customers wouldn’t have to. According to Arcus, the bug was identified on November 9 and patched within one hour of detection. The company says no user balances were affected, and trading and withdrawals are running normally.
