Hack Turns $GAIN Into Pain, Griffin AI Token Crashes 84%
The culprit? A hacker, or perhaps more accurately, a digital Houdini. CertiK, a blockchain security firm, confirmed that the attacker tricked Ethereum into believing a counterfeit LayerZero Peer was legitimate. This deception allowed the hacker to mint a whopping 5 billion fake GAIN tokens. And what did they do with this newfound wealth? They bridged those tokens to Binance Smart Chain (BSC), of course, and sold them for almost $3 million. Money laundering? Oh, don’t worry, that part was neatly handled via Tornado Cash. Classy.
