Neutral
Di effect na dem mainly dey for ETH price. De exploit dem talk say e contain: Aethir cut off di affected bridge contracts and talk say im ATH supply for Ethereum still intact, so e limit immediate contagion risk to Ethereum exposure. But di early vs revised loss estimates (round $400K down to under $90K) fit still trigger short-term sentiment swings around cross-chain infrastructure and bridge-related liquidity/hedging flows. For longer term, di planned compensation details and fast wallet blacklisting by major exchanges (plus ongoing monitoring) suppose reduce perceived tail risk, keeping di net effect on ETH price more balanced than clearly bullish or bearish.
