Now, the Sui community is <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/sui.scan.space\/vote\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">currently voting<\/a> on a proposal that enables a special transaction to return those frozen assets from two attacker addresses back to Cetus.<\/p>\n<p>If passed, the vote would approve a one-time authentication of two special transactions hard-coded with the two attacker addresses, stolen asset objects, and their destination.<\/p>\n<p>The votes are weighted by validator stake, but the Sui Foundation\u2019s stake is excluded to maintain neutrality. The vote passes if more than 50% of the total stake participates and there are more \u201cyes\u201d votes than \u201cno\u201d votes.<\/p>\n<p>The voting period ends next week, but early passing could happen as early as Thursday if the remaining unvoted stake cannot change the outcome. That appears poised to happen, with 71% of the validators having already voted \u201cyes\u201d at time of writing, compared to 0.3% for \u201cno,\u201d 1.5% abstaining and 27.2% who had yet to vote.<\/p>\n<p>Cetus also <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CetusProtocol\/status\/1927434763125531045\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">announced<\/a> this week that it is in a position to fully cover the remaining losses via cash, token treasuries and a loan from the Sui Foundation, pending the vote\u2019s passage.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cBecause full recovery is dependent upon the results of the community vote, we humbly ask for the Sui community\u2019s full support to recover the funds via the upcoming vote.
