The Bored Ape Yacht Club’s (BAYC) Discord server was hacked by cyber criminals and they successfully stole non-fungible tokens (NFTs) worth 200 Ethereum (ETH) on June 4, 2022.
The attacker hacked the Discord account of Boris Vagner, BAYC’s community manager, and posted several phishing links in the account, its related metaverse account ‘Otherside’ and on the NFT fantasy football club Spoiled Banana Society’s (SPS) Discord account, reported Coindesk.
The global crypto market capitalisation went up by 3.43 per cent to $1.27 trillion as of 8.50 am. The global crypto volume was up by 18.04 per cent to $51.24 billion, as per Coinmarketcap data.
Our Discord servers were briefly exploited today. The team caught and addressed it quickly. About 200 ETH worth of NFTs appear to have been impacted. We are still investigating, but if you were impacted, email us at discord@yugalabs.io.
