A one-block Ethereum reorganization on Saturday triggered a double refund involving 10 ETH on Thorchain, setting off an emergency pause that disrupted cross-chain swaps across most of its supported networks.

The trouble began when Ethereum reorganized a single block , effectively replacing a previously accepted segment of its transaction history.
