Humanity releases incident update: affecting both Ethereum and BSC blockchains; stolen amount confirmed to exceed $36 million

Humanity released an incident update stating that its H token was subject to a coordinated attack on Ethereum and BSC on the evening of June 8, resulting in approximately $36 million worth of tokens stolen and dumped across both chains. The project disclosed that the attack originated from a compromised employee laptop, which led to the leakage of multiple owner keys for the Gnosis Safe controlling the Hyperlane bridge ProxyAdmin. On Ethereum, the attacker seized ownership of the ProxyAdmin and upgraded the contract to a malicious implementation, transferring approximately 141.2 million H tokens in a single transaction. On BSC, after similarly gaining control of the ProxyAdmin, the attacker deployed a malicious implementation with infinite minting capabilities, minting 200 million H tokens in two transactions and continuously dumping them. Humanity has suspended deposits and withdrawals on the affected cross-chain bridge and is cooperating with exchanges and law enforcement to investigate the incident and seek partial recovery of the stolen funds.

Humility Security Incident Update: $36 Million Stolen, Police Investigation Launched to Recover Funds

Humility Protocol released a security incident update on the X platform, stating that its H token suffered a coordinated attack on the Ethereum and BSC chains yesterday, with confirmed losses exceeding $36 million in stolen and dumped assets.Preliminary investigations indicate the incident originated from a compromised employee computer, which led to the leakage of private keys for the multi-signature wallet controlling the Hyperlane Bridge ProxyAdmin. Specifically, the attacker obtained 3 out of 6 private keys of the Gnosis Safe wallet on the Ethereum chain, transferred ownership of the ProxyAdmin to a wallet under their control, upgraded the bridge contract to a malicious implementation, and subsequently transferred approximately 141.2 million H tokens in a single transaction.Simultaneously, the attacker also gained control of 3 out of 5 private keys of the Safe wallet on the BSC chain, took over the ProxyAdmin using the same method, deployed a malicious contract with unlimited minting functionality, and minted 200 million H tokens in two separate transactions to their own wallet.Humility stated that it has suspended all deposit and withdrawal operations on the affected bridge services and is collaborating with partners such as exchanges to mitigate losses. Meanwhile, it is cooperating with the police investigation and attempting to recover part of the stolen funds.

Humanity hacker has minted 300 million H and cashed out $34 million

According to monitoring by on-chain analyst Ember, the "private key leak" has allowed the minting and dumping of H to continue for 13 hours. The so-called "hacker" is still able to mint H on the BSC chain and sell it off, draining every last cent from the pools. The "hacker" has minted 300 million H and sold a total of approximately 450 million H, cashing out $34 million (ETH+BNB). The H pool on BSC has been drained to just $13 in liquidity, and the price of H has plummeted 99.9% to $0.0009. Meanwhile, the perpetual contract price on CEX stands at $0.09, a 100x difference. In essence, they have de-pegged into two unrelated tokens.

Arthur Hayes: Rising Oil Prices, AI-Related IPOs, and Trump's Anti-AI Rhetoric Could Pop the AI Bubble and Drag Down the Crypto Market

Odaily News, June 9th — BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes stated in his latest article "Reality Test" that if oil prices continue to rise due to the US-Iran conflict, it could trigger a collapse of the AI stock bubble and drag the entire crypto market down.Hayes said that if traffic restrictions in the Strait of Hormuz persist deep into the second quarter, spot prices for hydrocarbons and other key commodities could rise in the third quarter. If oil prices continue to climb and inflationary pressures impact the US midterm elections, Trump might pivot to a tough stance targeting data center construction, AI regulation, and taxation. Hayes believes the market could anticipate Trump limiting AI capital expenditure and taxing AI companies, thereby triggering the burst of the AI stock bubble.Hayes also noted that since November 2022, the scale of AI-related debt issuance has been approximately $1.5 trillion, and US M2 has increased by roughly the same amount during the same period. He believes the three factors that could pop the AI bubble include rising energy costs, the market's inability to absorb three major AI-related IPOs — namely SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI — and Trump's shift to opposing AI. In terms of portfolio, Hayes stated that Maelstrom's stock portfolio holds significant positions in US-listed energy producers; he has sold AI-related stocks and offloaded non-core crypto assets, having dumped HYPE, NEAR, and WLD last week, as well as selling ZEC due to the Orchard Pool vulnerability. He still holds Bitcoin and ETH and will execute tactical short trades via derivatives.

Aave Founder Calls Protocol "Resilient" Despite $8.45 Billion Deposit Run Exposing Risks

in April this year, KelpDAO's LayerZero bridge was exploited in a $292 million vulnerability attack, triggering an $8.45 billion deposit run on Aave within 48 hours, marking the largest capital outflow event in decentralized finance (DeFi) history. Aave founder Stani Kulechov stated that the design of Aave V3 withstood the market test, demonstrating the network's "resilience." However, independent data indicates that Aave's survival primarily relied on $300 million in emergency rescue, including a 25,000 ETH guarantee from the Aave DAO and a personal injection of 5,000 ETH (approximately $8.4 million) by Kulechov.Kulechov attributed the vulnerability to third-party infrastructure rather than core smart contracts. However, analysts pointed out that this incident exposed deficiencies in Aave's risk architecture and insurance mechanisms, leading the platform to incur significant bad debt (approximately $123.7 million in wETH). To prevent future bridge failures from triggering systemic bank runs, Aave V4 will adopt a modular "hub-and-spoke" architecture, enabling local risk auto-adjustment and collateral freezing.

BIT: Last week, the crypto market continued its weakness; BTC rebounded preliminarily after approaching the critical support level of $60K.

According to BIT’s official Chinese-language account (@BITofficial_CN) market recap, the crypto market as a whole faced pressure last week. BTC declined from approximately $73,400 on June 1 to around $63,100 on Monday this week, with an intraday low of $61,400; ETH also fell in tandem to roughly $1,680. On the funding front, BTC spot ETFs recorded net outflows for 13 consecutive trading days, totaling approximately $4.4 billion in outflows. Compounded by whale selling and concerns over Mt. Gox wallet transfers, short-term selling pressure continued to intensify. As BTC approaches the critical support level of $60,000, the market posted an initial rebound within the past 24 hours. Going forward, key factors to monitor include whether ETF inflows resume, whether the $60,000 support level holds, and how this week’s CPI data impacts risk sentiment.
