NFT game Munchables, which is on recently launched Ethereum Layer 2 Blast, lost $62 million last night in an exploit. But early this morning the team had good news for its community: “All funds are safe.”
Very early this morning, the Munchables team said on Twitter that a developer attached to the project had “agreed to share the keys for the full Munchables funds without any condition.” The wording in the team’s message and another by Blur and Blast founder, Tieshun Roquerre, seems to confirm that the exploit was carried out by an insider who worked on the game.
Within an hour of the tepidly good news, the Munchables account said the developer had “shared all private keys involved to assist in recovering the user funds. Specifically, the key which holds $62,535,441.24 USD, the key which holds 73 WETH, and the owner key which contains the rest of the funds.”
