$142M lost in July alone. This week?
1️⃣ “No Crypto Taken, But $731K Still Lost.”
– SuperRare’s staking contract was exploited. No NFTs stolen, but 11.9M RARE tokens (~$730K) vanished through a lax authorization function. A critical reminder: staking is still vulnerable smart contract code.
2️⃣ WOO X Exchange Hack – $14M Lost
– Attackers phished an employee’s credential, compromising dev environment and draining $14M in user funds via withdrawals. Internal infrastructure remains the weak link.
3️⃣ New Malware Strain JSCEAL Targets Crypto Users
– Over 35,000 malicious ads in the EU pushed fake wallet/exchange installers bundling JSCEAL malware. This insidious JS payload steals private keys and credentials via PowerShell and Node.js completely evading traditional antivirus detection.
Yet another reminder that cold custody isn’t optional anymore. It’s foundational.
Stay cold 🧊
