Due to internal behavioral issues, Munchables, a non-fungible token (nft) game, recently experienced a loss of funds that was later recovered, prompting the platform to implement strict security measures. This essay explores the actions Munchables took to improve its security infrastructure and regain user trust after the theft of $68 million.
The security breach: loss and recovery
Following the theft, in which one of its developers fled with millions of Ether, Munchables reacted quickly. What could have been a significant financial loss for the platform was offset by the developer's subsequent return of the stolen money. Munchables, however, realized that complete protections were needed and took a number of measures to prevent similar events from occurring in the future.
Munchables has changed the way developers are hired, smart contract auditing, and multi-signature agreements in a bid to improve security. To improve control and accountability, the platform has added new signatories to its multi-signature wallets, including blockchain researcher ZachXBT, Selini Capital, and Manifold Trading.
Rebuild trust and support: strengthen community participation
Munchables recruited developers from Manifold Trading and Selini Capital to conduct extensive audits and make necessary updates to ensure the integrity of its smart contracts. Munchables' commitment to strong security procedures is confirmed by the fact that ethereum infrastructure company Nethermind plans to conduct additional audits before the platform resumes operations.
Munchables is committed to its network despite the event; continues to provide better incentives for returning players and provide funding to organizations helping with recovery. The platform highlights its direct refund process to consumers' wallets and has also published important tips on how to connect with authorized refund websites.
Industry Overview
The Munchables event serves as a window into the broader security issues facing the cryptocurrency industry.
