MonoSwap Suffers Hack, Urges Users To Withdraw Funds
MonoSwap, a yield farming protocol, has suffered a significant hack after a fake venture capitalist installed malware on a developer’s tech.
The yield-driven decentralized exchange urged users not to add liquidity or stake in its pools until further notice. Those with staked funds should withdraw immediately to avoid potential losses.
The breach occurred after a MonoSwap developer installed a malicious application during a call with a scammer posing as a venture capitalist.
This phishing app allowed attackers to access MonoSwap-related wallets and contracts, resulting in the withdrawal of most staked liquidity.
The team is currently investigating the incident and will provide updates soon.
“We are planning the refund options. The team will try its best to recover the hacked funds,” the company posted on X.
MonoSwap is a DEX and Launchpad integrated into the robust Blast framework.
The MonoSwap platform is known for its highly efficient and customizable protocol, which offers unique capabilities for builders and users and fosters adaptable liquidity. Compared to traditional DEX designs, MonoSwap prioritizes composability, thus redefining decentralized financial solutions.
