Proposal overview
Governance Proposal: CLD Accelerated Recovery – Allocate 30M ONE to the CLD Recovery Platform for Hacked User Compensation
- Introduction
In the wake of the Harmony Horizon Bridge exploit in June 2022, the Harmony ecosystem has been committed to restoring trust, supporting affected users, and ensuring long-term sustainability. The CLD Recovery Platform, developed in collaboration with security and recovery experts, represents a transparent, fair, and technically robust mechanism to compensate verified victims of the hack.
This proposal seeks to allocate 30 million ONE tokens from the RMC Multisig wallet to fund the CLD Recovery Platform. These funds will be used exclusively to compensate pre-hack wallet holders who suffered direct losses, with redemption rates scaled by loss tier to maximize impact while preserving capital efficiency.
- CLD Recovery Platform Overview
The CLD Recovery Platform is a permissionless-yet-verified system designed to:
Restrict participation to wallets that held assets before the hack block and were compromised during the incident.
Snapshot user balances at the moment of the hack to determine eligible loss amounts.
Apply tiered redemption rates based on loss size to prioritize smaller retail victims while still offering partial recovery to larger stakeholders.
Charge a 1% operational fee to CLD to cover platform maintenance, verification, and administrative costs.
Redemption Tiers & Rates
Tier
Loss Range (USD)
Redemption Rate
1
$0 – $100
20%
2
$100 – $50,000
20%
3
$50,000 – $100,000
8.65%
4
$100,000 – $250,000
8.65%
5
$250,000
5.5%
Note: This excludes liquidity pool positions and tokens locked in protocols like Aave, Curve, Tranchess, and Frax, as those require separate legal and technical resolution paths.
- Funding Goal & Impact
Total remaining compensation needed to achieve full recovery at hack-time values: $21.35M USD
Proposed allocation: 30M ONE (valued at ~$300,000 USD at current market rates, assuming $0.01/ONE)
Expected impact:
Clear up to $12M USD of the $21.35M outstanding liability
Enable up to 98% of pre-hack affected wallets to receive compensation
Restore confidence in Harmony’s commitment to user protection
This allocation strategically targets the most vulnerable users (Tiers 1–2), who represent the majority of affected accounts, while still providing meaningful recovery for larger stakeholders.
- Economic Breakdown of 30M ONE Allocation
Assuming a conservative ONE price of $0.01, 30M ONE = $300,000 USD.
The platform will prioritize lower tiers first to maximize user coverage. Based on actual user distribution it may unlock up to:
Tier

5

Moreover, the 30M ONE may achieve up to ~98% wallet clearance (~65k wallets with up to 1K$ debt).
This approach ensures maximum social impact with limited capital.
- Mechanics & Safeguards
Eligibility Verification:
Only wallets with a non-zero balance before the hack (block #28130370) and a non-zero balance at 9 September 2025, 22:00 UTC (block #78292334) may register. The redeemable amount will be the minimum of the pre-hack amount and the amount on 9 September.
Token Distribution:
The users will have to use the CLD Recovery Platform to exchange their tokens
Exchanged tokens will be burned or sent to a dead wallet (0x0000…dead) to prevent misuse.
Transparency:
All claims, verifications, and distributions will be on-chain and publicly auditable.
CLD Fee:
A 1% fee will be deducted to sustain platform operations on each swap.
- Request
We propose that the Harmony Community approves the transfer of 30,000,000 ONE tokens from the Harmony RMC multisig to the CLD Recovery Platform Smart Contract (0x6C7F225b585F589bBa78eAF289E9025dD2d677aD) on the condition that the funds be used exclusively for user redemptions in accordance with the tiered redemption structure.
