The @Humanityprot hack all started with a fake email. Here's a play-by-play of what actually happened ↓ 1️⃣ A Humanity Protocol director received an email pretending to be from @BithumbOfficial about a circulating supply lockup schedule. It looked like normal exchange stuff. 2️⃣ The email included a malicious ZIP attachment. The director opened it. 3️⃣ According to @Quantstamp, this happened on June 5 at 02:00 UTC. The malware gave the attacker remote access to the computer. 4️⃣ Basically, the hacker got control of the device without needing to attack the smart contract directly. 5️⃣ From there, they stole wallet data and private keys. This is the important part. 6️⃣ The attacker didn't even need to break Humanity's contracts from the outside because they got access to keys that already had control over critical parts of the setup. 7️⃣ On June 8, the attacker used those stolen keys onchain. On @Ethereum, they moved about 141M $H tokens. On @BNBCHAIN they used stolen signer keys to take over admin permissions and mint more $H. 8️⃣ Then they dumped the stolen/minted $H through @Uniswap and @PancakeSwap over roughly 8 hours. 9️⃣ The market got nuked. $H crashed hard because the attacker was dumping a massive amount of supply into public liquidity. 🔟 Quantstamp said the attack had signs of DPRK-linked activity. The malware setup and intrusion pattern looked similar to previous North Korea-linked cyber campaigns. Conclusion: This is exactly why human misjudgment and carelessness are still some of the biggest reasons crypto feels unsafe, and I don’t think that even quantum computers can fix that.#YenCarryAlarm72Hr #ETHSmartMoneyRush #MuskFirstTrillionaire
