SecondFi users are reporting successful recoveries after the June 2026 Yoroi wallet exploit, with the recovery process transferring 100 million ADA and 22 million NIGHT to verified destination addresses. This episode explains what happened, how EMURGO is making affected users whole and why the recovery tool is a significant outcome after a serious wallet compromise.
Peter also walks through the recovery flow, the computer requirements for generating an ownership proof, the limits around NIGHT allocations, NFTs, staking rewards and external DeFi positions, plus the security checks every affected user should follow. Never reuse a compromised wallet, never respond to recovery DMs and verify that you are on the official SecondFi website before entering a recovery phrase.

What you'll learn: - About 374 wallets were linked to the malicious drain, while a separate white-hat recovery secured additional affected assets. - EMURGO committed reserves to make users affected by the malicious 16 million ADA drain whole. - The SecondFi recovery process had transferred 100 million ADA and 22 million NIGHT to verified destination addresses at the time of recording. - Affected users should create a new destination wallet and must not reuse or transact from the compromised wallet. - SecondFi will not send recovery instructions by DM or ask users to transfer assets to a verification wallet. - The recovery proof requires a desktop-class computer, at least 2 GB of available memory and a reliable internet connection. - NIGHT allocations and some external DeFi positions may require separate handling and should not be pursued through unverified third-party tools.
