   +SideSwap operates the Liquid peg-out service described in [[episodes/timmy-tether-guest-hosts-bugle-weekly|Timmy Tether Guest Hosts Bugle Weekly]]. [[characters/timmy-tether|Timmy Tether]] reports that AI-assisted hackers exploited the service to withdraw 4,000 bitcoin from the [[companies/blockstream|Blockstream]]-maintained sidechain.[^exploit]
   +
   +The later clanker recap explains the service as bridging software and makes its failure the episode’s example of AI-assisted actors outrunning human security institutions.[^recap]
