<ul data-eligibleForWebStory="true">Hackers stole over $1 million from Pepe NFT projects by hijacking smart contracts tied to ChainSaw studio and Matt Furie.The attacks targeted multiple collections, draining funds and minting new tokens to crash floor prices across projects like Peplicator and Hedz.Evidence suggests the breach came through freelance developers, with suspicious ties to North Korea and poor internal security practices.A related exploit hit the Favrr NFT project for $680,000, following the same laundering path, raising fears of a broader vulnerability.
