🚨BREAKING: A $3,000 SERVER ALMOST EXPOSED A $70 BILLION CRYPTO NETWORK.
Two ethical hackers uncovered a critical flaw in Aptos' core consensus mechanism with a nearly 90% success rate.
The most shocking part?
The attack reportedly cost only a few hundred dollars to execute and required a server worth just $3,000.
Before the vulnerability was patched, the flaw could have theoretically placed up to $70 billion in network value at risk.
This is a powerful reminder that in crypto, security isn't measured by market cap.
One overlooked vulnerability can outweigh billions in value.
The good news is the issue was responsibly disclosed, patched before it could be exploited, and serves as another example of why white-hat hackers remain one of the industry's strongest lines of defense.
