LNDFi - Rekt
Admin keys leaked. Contracts tweaked. $1.18M gone. LNDfi blames North Korea, but the chain tells a simpler story - a quiet backdoor, a drained pool, and a protocol that trusted too much, too easily.
BrincFi - Rekt Cold Case
A backdoor function drained BrincFi’s staking contract in December 2021. They allege an ex-dev, still active in crypto, was behind it. The case drags on in court while users are left without answers. A cold case, still haunting the industry.
MobiusDAO - Rekt
67 cents minted 9.73 quadrillion MBU via a double-decimal bug, letting an attacker siphon $2.15 million, dump tokens, and vanish through Tornado Cash. MobiusDAO went from launch to zero in three days - undone by math nobody may have bothered to test.
Dystopian Diaries
Our ancestors fought wars for freedom, we surrendered ours for a user agreement we never read. What if the greatest technological threat isn't AI taking over, but humanity willingly stepping aside? This isn’t a story of machines rising against us, it’s a chronicle of how we sank into them.
All the Wrong Moves
Was Movement's community revolution an extraction scheme in disguise? Middlemen helped insiders dump 66M tokens for $38M profit before blaming market makers. Exchanges needed one look to delist. Is this the same liquidity extraction game with fancier packaging?
Loopscale - Rekt
Sixteen days after launch, Loopscale lost $5.8M to a basic oracle manipulation. Audits flagged the vulnerability, but they claimed all critical issues fixed. Users trusted them. All funds returned. Is this protocol built on solid code or just lucky negotiations?
Blockchain Slumlords
Crypto investors bought tokenized pieces of American homes. Tenants were left in the dark, living with black mold, broken plumbing, and neglect from their so-called landlords. RealT promised a real estate revolution - what they delivered was absentee slumlording on the blockchain.
Bitget's VOXEL Meltdown
A glitched market-making bot on Bitget bought high, sold low on repeat, turning VOXEL into an ATM for quick traders. $100M+ allegedly vanished before rollbacks and freezes hit. Ironic twist - CEO who slammed competitors for reversing trades now defends doing exactly that.
KiloEx - Rekt
Oracle manipulation 101 - check your damn validation. KiloEx lost almost $7.5 million when their MinimalForwarder contract accepted any forged signature without verification. The attack hit Base, BNB Chain, opBNB, Taiko, and Manta simultaneously.
Mantra of Misfortune
Dubai-licensed RWA darling Mantra plummeted 91%, vaporizing $5 billion. $227 million quietly moved to exchanges before the crash. When billions vanish in hours while wallets empty in days, is the real sleight of hand in the timing or in the explanation?
Sweet Betrayal
Millions in CAKE suddenly locked before a proposal to sunset veCAKE on PancakeSwap appears. Long-term builders face extinction while those newest to the kitchen might walk away with no commitment. When governance systems can be cooked and eaten in the same meal, who's left to trust the recipe?
Trade War Theater
Maybe the trade war isn’t really about tariffs- but a strategic move to create chaos and pave the way for a new digital economy. While retail investors panic, elites could be positioned to buy the dip and reshape the system. What if it’s the beginning of a reset?
