Abstract generation in progress

While the hacking incidents in the crypto market seem to never end, another one was added today.

According to this, Cetus, a decentralized exchange (DEX) built on the SUI blockchain, has been hacked. The attacker only withdrew $11 million worth of SUI tokens from the SUI/USDC pool.

Following the hack, it was reported on DEX Screener that according to Cetus market data, many tokens have lost more than half of their value in the last 24 hours, and the liquidity pool is almost empty. According to DEX Screener data, some tokens, such as Lombard Staked, BTC (LBTC), and AXOLcoin (AXOL), have lost almost all of their value. The top 15 losing tokens lost more than three-quarters of their price.

According to the information received, the attacker stole many altcoins, including approximately $52 million worth of Sui (SUI), $4.9 million worth of Haedal Staked SUI (HASUI), more than $19.5 million worth of Toilet (TOILET), and approximately $19.5 million worth of wrapped USDt (USDT).

Chinese journalist Wu Blockchain stated that the hacker drained token liquidity from various Cetus pools and exchanged it for SUI.

The hacker currently possesses altcoins worth approximately 150 million dollars, including 12.989 million SUI (, which is about 52 million dollars ).

Wu then said that the hacker performed cross-chain transactions and exchanged them with Etheruem. Currently, the hacker has more than 9,200 ETH (yaklaşık $24 million in değerinde) and is still exchanging for ETH.

Cetus Protocol, which accepted the hack incident, stated that an event was detected in the protocol, the smart contract was paused for security reasons, and the incident is currently under investigation.

The token of Cetus Protocol, CETUS, has experienced a significant drop of up to 35% and is currently trading at $0.1665.

🚨Alert Announcement 🚨

There was an incident detected on our protocol and our smart contract has been paused temporarily for safety. The team is investigating the incident at the moment. A further investigation statement will be made soon. We are grateful for your patience.
