According to ChainCatcher news, DeBox officials announced that due to the leak of the personal EOA wallet private key of the operational account, 31.03 ETH and 4.879 million BOX were stolen. The officials emphasized that this incident is unrelated to the asset security of platform users, and the community can rest assured.
The response plan includes:
1. Stable Fund Buyback: The stable fund will be used to repurchase stolen tokens from the exchange, expected to be completed within a week.
2. Token Distribution: All repurchased tokens will be injected into the BOX DAO asset pool, and specific uses will be determined by community voting.
3. Account Security Upgrade: Once 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 conduct investigations and asset tracking, with regular updates on progress. Any 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, while committing to continue building an open, transparent, and sustainable ecosystem.
