Roll back a $6.3B hack or not? ARK and critics take sides
The Defiant is putting a hot question on the table: should a chain be able to rewind after a $6.3B Binance hack? ARK Invest's Lorenzo argues neutrality is worthless if you get drained, while @malekanoms calls the rollback button a fresh vulnerability no institution would touch. They've agreed to debate it out at 4:45pm ET.

Lorenzo of ARK Invest has no patience for blockchain purity. His argument, posted ahead of the debate: neutrality doesn't matter if the money is gone — his line was that neutrality isn't a product, not getting drained is. He wants chains to keep a rollback option on the table in the wake of a $6.3B Binance hack.
@malekanoms came back swinging from the other side. In that view, the rollback button isn't a safety net — it's a brand-new vulnerability baked into the chain itself, and no institution would want to build on infrastructure that can be rewound at will.
The two agreed to settle it in a live debate, hosted by The Defiant at 4:45pm ET. The number hanging over the whole thing is the $6.3B figure tied to the Binance hack — the kind of loss that turns an abstract governance question into a very concrete one.
