According to PANews reports, DeBox's official announcement stated that due to the leak of the private key of the operational account's personal EOA wallet, 31.03 ETH and 4.879 million BOX were stolen. The official emphasized that this incident is unrelated to the security of platform user assets.
The response plan includes:
1. Stable Fund Buyback: Utilize the stable fund to repurchase stolen tokens from the exchange, expected to be completed within a week.
2. Token Distribution: The repurchased tokens will be injected into the BOX DAO asset pool, with specific usage decided by community vote.
3. Account Security Upgrade: After the DeBox App supports multi-signature login, the operational account will be migrated to a multi-signature wallet.
4. Tracking and Accountability: A professional security company has been commissioned to investigate and track assets, with progress to be updated regularly. Recovered assets will be managed through BOX DAO voting.
The DeBox team stated that they will continue to track the theft address and reserve the right to take legal action, committing to build an open, transparent, and sustainable ecosystem.
