Noones CEO confirms platform was hacked, loss of about $8 million
Foresight News reported that Noones CEO Ray Youssef confirmed the platform was hacked, resulting in a loss of approximately $8 million. "The incident occurred on January 1, as our <Solana> cross-chain bridge was exploited. The team immediately took action and shut down the cross-chain bridge." The cross-chain bridge remains offline.
Foresight News previously reported that according to on-chain sleuth ZachXBT, Noones may have been drained of around $7.9 million on Ethereum, <TRON>, <SOL>, and BSC between January 1 and 2, as hundreds of suspicious fund outflows from its hot wallet were observed, each transaction being less than $7,000. Shortly after, the platform announced maintenance but did not issue any official statement regarding the security incident. The drained funds were cross-chained to Ethereum/BSC and then deposited into <Tornado Cash>.
