Coin-making out of thin air—40 billion? Harmony suffers a “money-printing machine”-style vulnerability hijack. How should retail investors avoid getting scammed?
Another major disaster for the public chain Harmony ($ONE )! Hackers exploited an empty-blocks vulnerability to mint approximately 4,000,000,000 $ONE (directly accounting for 26% of the total supply) out of thin air, without authorization!
Even worse, the hackers immediately dumped 2.8 billion of those tokens into major exchanges, crushing the market in one blow. Now the project team is scrambling around the world to coordinate with exchanges to freeze the funds, and they’re even researching “blockchain rollback” as an ultimate life-saving option. $ONE
