Cybersecurity experts from Peckshield reported a possible hack of the ZB decentralized cryptocurrency exchange, which claimed to be the most secure in the world.
According to Peckshield experts, hackers managed to withdraw digital assets worth about $4.8 million from wallets. At the same time, on August 2, the crypto exchange announced a temporary suspension of deposits and withdrawals due to “an unexpected failure of some of the main applications.”
During the suspension, the hackers managed to transfer more than 20 tokens from the site’s hot wallet. The tokens went to various decentralized exchanges and were sold for 2,224 ETH ($3.6 million). At the same time, assets worth about $1 million still remain on the purse of the attackers.
To date, there has been no confirmation of a hack by ZB representatives.
On the same day, August 2, the gateway of the Nomad decentralized finance project was attacked by hackers. The attackers managed to withdraw assets worth more than $190 million.
