Not always. In many cases, exploits target bridged or wrapped versions of tokens rather than the main network itself. For example, if a bridged version of DOT on another blockchain is hacked, it usually affects only that specific implementation—not the core Polkadot relay chain.</p>
<p dir="auto">However, these incidents still highlight risks in the broader ecosystem. While Polkadot’s core network is designed with strong security, users should be cautious when interacting with third-party bridges or wrapped assets, as those can introduce additional vulnerabilities.</p>
