The Sandbox halted bridging on Aug 22 after an exploit minted a nominal $49B in unbacked SAND -- but only ~$675K actually left reserves.
The news: an attacker hijacked LayerZero delegate permissions on SAND's omnichain bridge via approveAndCall, minting unbacked SAND on Base and BNB Smart Chain that Blockaid flagged at a face value near $49B across 400+ transactions -- almost entirely phantom, since it's illegitimate mint volume times SAND's market price, not real money. The Sandbox disabled bridging on both chains and confirmed only ~14.75M SAND (~$675K) actually left reserves before containment, under 0.01% of supply. Ethereum and Polygon are unaffected, no wallets compromised, and Bithumb/Upbit suspended SAND deposits as a precaution.
The catch: Base and BNB Chain SAND markets are now frozen indefinitely with no restoration timeline -- a liquidity and reputational hit disproportionate to the dollar loss. Two Korean exchanges pausing deposits signals lingering doubt, and LP compensation is only "planned," not executed. This is also a LayerZero OFT-standard delegate-permission compromise, a bridge type used across dozens of major projects.
Our read: a contained exploit in dollar terms, but a real structural bridge-security question that isn't closed yet. Falsifiable watch-point: does bridging actually restore cleanly, and does LP compensation get executed, or does this drag on?
Does a $675K real loss dressed up as a "$49B exploit" headline change how you read bridge security risk, or does the actual number matter more than the scary one?
Not financial advice. DYOR.

🚨 BREAKING: THE SANDBOX (SAND) HIT BY SUSPECTED INFINITE-MINT FLAW
SAND is facing a major security incident on Base and BNB Smart Chain (BSC).
On-chain researchers initially flagged an apparent minting vulnerability that allowed attackers to create more than 500 million SAND. Later on-chain monitoring reported even larger amounts across attacker addresses.
🔴 What happened?
• Unauthorized $SAND was reportedly minted through the cross-chain bridge
• Base & BSC were affected
• The Sandbox disabled bridging to isolate the affected tokens
• The project says the impact is less than 0.01% of total SAND supply
• Ethereum and Polygon SAND were reported unaffected
• No user wallets were compromised, according to The Sandbox’s update
📉 Why it matters:
A sudden increase in token supply can create heavy selling pressure and extreme volatility. Traders should be especially careful with SAND on the affected networks while the investigation continues.
👀 WATCH: Can SAND stabilize after the bridge exploit?

🚨 THE SANDBOX JUST GOT HIT.
The Sandbox has been hacked, with two wallet addresses starting with 0xAbE0 and 0x638C allegedly minting a total of 14.9 billion SAND.
Previously, Bithumb and Upbit temporarily halted SAND deposits/withdrawals.
If the 14.9B SAND figure is confirmed, this is no longer a small exploit.
14.9 BILLION SAND.
Bro really printed his own money. 💀
I’ll pay special attention to The Sandbox’s next move and the exchanges’ actions, because freezing deposits/withdrawals is often the first step to limit how much of the exploited tokens continue to move.
Do you think SAND will dump hard when liquidity returns?

SAND Suspected Infinite Minting Vulnerability Encountered: Security Warning Rings Again in the Crypto Market
#SAND Is Back in the Spotlight Today.
According to on-chain data, The Sandbox’s SAND cross-chain related mechanisms appear to have a security vulnerability. The attacker reportedly used the flaw to mint unsupported SAND, triggering market concerns about “infinite minting.” Subsequently, The Sandbox officially confirmed that the cross-chain bridge on Base and BNB Chain has a vulnerability, and paused the related cross-chain functionality while addressing the issue. (KuCoin)
Why has “infinite minting” attracted such high market attention?
Because in the Crypto world, the token supply mechanism is an important foundation of the value system.
If an attacker can bypass permission restrictions to mint large amounts of tokens, it could lead to:
🔹 A sudden increase in market supply
🔹 Erosion of holders’ confidence
🔹 Volatility in liquidity and price
However, the extent of the impact still needs to await the official full investigation report, and we cannot simply conclude that the project itself has failed.
This incident also serves as another reminder to all crypto users:
Security is always the first lesson.
Whether it’s a popular project, a large ecosystem, or an emerging protocol, it’s essential to keep monitoring:
✅ Smart contract security
✅ Cross-chain bridge risks
✅ Updates to official announcements
✅ Asset management approaches
The development of crypto is not only about price increases—it’s also about the industry continuously improving its security systems.
What do you think about this SAND incident?
Is this just a short-term security accident,
Or will it push the industry to further strengthen security measures?

🚨Emergency Update: Cross-chain bridge vulnerability attack targeting $SAND leads to abnormal minting of over 5 million tokens
According to official updates, the SAND in The Sandbox ecosystem was attacked due to a vulnerability in a cross-chain bridge, resulting in an abnormal minting of approximately 5 million SAND tokens appearing on the network, raising community concerns about liquidity and the token price.
So far, the project team has not disclosed the full details of the attack or the flow of funds, nor has it stated whether it will take any measures to recover the abnormally minted tokens. Cross-chain bridges have long been a high-frequency target for attacks in the crypto asset space; previously, several well-known bridge protocols suffered massive asset losses due to security vulnerabilities.
Reminder to all $SAND holders: please monitor official announcements in the near term, manage risk carefully, don’t blindly buy the dip or add positions, and wait for the situation to become clearer.

$SAND official just updated the cross-chain bridge vulnerability incident progress: the team has identified and fully contained the issue that occurred on Base and BNB Chain, and the situation is now under control.
According to the official disclosure, the impact of this vulnerability is extremely small—less than 0.01% of the total SAND supply. SAND on Ethereum and Polygon is not affected. User wallets were not compromised either, so holders and liquidity providers on these two networks do not need to take any action.
Specifically, in this incident, the attacker minted SAND on Base and BNB Chain that is not backed by Ethereum assets. Currently, The Sandbox has disabled cross-chain functionality between these two networks. SAND on Base and BNB Chain has been isolated and cannot be transferred or redeemed.
At present, the official team is conducting a pre-incident snapshot and will develop a compensation plan for affected liquidity providers. Affected users can contact official support at contact@sandbox.game.
