Twitter streets are whispering that DaoMaker has been hacked! And withdrew $ 7,000,000 in USDC!

We dunno! What kind of party-hard is that there? We watch and keep you informed. Investigation in progress!

UPDATE #1

The hacker gained access to one of the wallets with admin privileges and tested the exploit. First he stole $10,000. Then he made another 15 transactions.

He ended up taking about $7 mln. The hack affected 5251 users, that's an average of $1250 per user.

Users who had less than $900 were not affected.

The team transferred the untouched money to a new secure wallet. It's OK, the hacker will be punished, we hope.

UPDATE #2

Incrypted interviewed the CEO of DAO Maker.

Reddit: “We have been making a great deal of progress on all fronts — from hiring our first chief financial officer and building out a comprehensive finance function, to expanding internationally in the UK, Canada, Australia, and more countries to come. This year Reddit marked its first $100 million advertising revenue quarter (Q2 2021), representing a 192 percent increase compared to the same period last year. And, we are investing in our products and diversifying the Reddit experience to include new ways for communities to connect through video and audio.

We are optimistic and encouraged that not only are we resourced and capitalized to continue on our growth path, but also that our investors support our vision and want to deepen their stakes in our future. We will raise up to $700 million in Series F funding, led by Fidelity Management and Research Company LLC. and including other existing investors, at a post-money valuation of over $10 billion.”

So what?

Well, as they say, press F! But the meaning is different here, and thank the gods!
