CoinDCX<\/strong>, one of India’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, has fallen victim to a new attack method<\/strong>, resulting in a loss of $44 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The India-based cryptocurrency exchange CoinDCX<\/strong> has confirmed it suffered a major cyberattack. The attack, which occurred last weekend, led to approximately $44 million<\/strong> worth of crypto assets being stolen from the exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ZachXBT<\/strong> reported that 1 ETH<\/strong> was sent to the attacker’s wallet via Tornado Cash<\/strong>, and some of the stolen funds were transferred from Solana to Ethereum<\/a><\/em><\/strong>. In short, complex methods were used to conceal tracks<\/strong> during the attack. CoinDCX<\/strong> will cover the $44 million loss<\/strong> from its own funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CoinDCX CEO Sumit Gupta<\/strong> promptly acknowledged the attack. While it was explained that the attack stemmed from a server vulnerability<\/strong> in the company’s internal systems used for liquidity provision, it was stated that user assets were not affected<\/strong>, and the damage incurred would be covered by CoinDCX’s own budget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company is currently collaborating with its partners to freeze and recover the stolen assets<\/strong>. Additionally, a bug bounty program<\/strong> is expected to be launched soon. Through this, the company aims to prevent similar scenarios, like the one that just occurred, from happening in the future. Another noteworthy point regarding this attack is its timing, precisely one year after another Indian exchange, WazirX<\/strong>, was hacked. The WazirX<\/strong> case was linked to the North Korea-affiliated Lazarus Group<\/strong> at the time, but no group has claimed responsibility for the current CoinDCX<\/strong> attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
