On January 13, Huobi HTX addressed the unilateral asset transfer by the Flow project due to a protocol vulnerability exploited on December 27, 2025, that led to illegal minting of FLOW tokens. Huobi HTX cooperated with Flow's team for risk control but criticized the project’s unilateral 'Isolated Recovery' plan to forcibly move and destroy assets—including those held by centralized exchanges and regular users—without proper communication. Huobi HTX called for respect of decentralization, user rights, transparent audits, and collaborative resolution instead of unilateral technical measures.
