According to cybersecurity firm CertiK, losses from digital asset scams and cybersecurity exploits topped $129 million in October.
Online casino platform MetaWin suffered an exploit on November 3, leaving the platform drained of approximately $4 million in funds, which the CEO says have been “topped off” since the attack.
According to MetaWin CEO Skel, the attacker hacked MetaWin’s hot wallets via the platform’s frictionless withdrawal system — prompting the platform to halt withdrawals. However, the CEO also said that withdrawals were restored for 95% of the platform’s customers at the time of writing.
Onchain sleuth ZackXBT also revealed that the attacker moved the stolen funds to Kucoin and a HitBTC nested service. The detective also identified more than 115 addresses associated with the malicious actor.
