The team behind the layer-1 blockchain Harmony (ONE) has offered the Horizon Bridge hacker USD 1m in bounty for the return of some USD 100m in stolen funds.

Harmony first revealed the exploit in a tweet in the early hours of Friday morning, saying that they had "identified a theft occurring this morning on the Horizon bridge amounting to approx.
