Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think CryptoBridge was hacked. Some users (not clear how many) were trading on the DEX with compromised private keys. It looks like it was related to downloading a malware wallet, then using the compromised private keys to trade.

It just goes to show you: Trading on a DEX alone won't keep your funds safe. You need to exercise proper security for your private keys.
