BlockBeats news, on December 2, the DeBox official announced that due to the leakage of the private key of the personal EOA wallet of the operational account, 31.03 ETH and 4.879 million BOX were stolen. The official emphasized that this incident is unrelated to the asset security of platform users, and the community can rest assured. The countermeasures announced by DeBox include:
1. Stable Fund Repurchase: 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, with specific uses to be decided by community vote.
3. Account Security Upgrade: Once the DeBox App supports multi-signature login, the operation account will migrate to a multi-signature wallet.
4. Tracking and Accountability: A professional security company has been commissioned to conduct investigations and asset tracking, and progress will be updated regularly. 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.
