125.5k BUSD lost in uHGT due to hack
![](data:image/svg+xml;utf-8,<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="1080" height="2400" />)
62,750,000,000 uHGT minted and stolen. I wonder how...
uHGT mining app was hacked. Hook token... Withdrawals of uHGT temporarily don't work.
A server storing information of several online hot wallets related to uHGT was compromised by a backdoor software. These hot wallets are only used to mint uHGT token & support gas costs for in-app Hooked Pickaxe NFT interactions.
So server was hacked... backdoor?! Was it inside job of sysadmin? Or did they installed some other crypto with backdoor or some npm package?!
A new token contract (uHGT_v2) will be deployed to replace the original uHGT token contract.
Why? Was contract affected?
Please be assured that the assets you’ve earned through in-app behaviors always belong to you.
On-chain transactions might be shortly paused for a few days during the re-deployment process and will be resumed immediately after completion.
I investigated hacker wallet
And it looks like hooked app actually uses blockchain and actual NFTs... I thought it will be just on server... And probably wallet address they give you in app is actually on BSC network... They spend too much in fees for minting...
