Details of the Exploit

On Monday evening, there was unauthorized access to the Gamee token’s contracts on Polygon. This led to the theft of 600 million GMEE tokens, which were subsequently liquidated for Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies. The exploit only affected the token contracts, not user wallets.

Impact on GMEE Price

The exploit and massive selloff caused GMEE’s price to plunge over 60% in minutes. It fell from around $0.0025 to below $0.001 per token. The price has recovered slightly since then but remains down sharply.

Response to the Exploit

In response, the Gamee team has halted decentralized exchange provisions for now, notified centralized exchanges, and is conducting a security review. They are also in touch with law enforcement regarding next steps.

Supporting Affected Users

While no community members’ wallets were impacted, the Gamee team says they will work to identify any affected users and explore ways to support the community during this difficult time.

Conclusion

The Gamee exploit serves as another reminder of the risks involved with blockchain projects. The team took swift action to secure contracts and is working to make users whole. However, major damage was already done to token prices. It remains to be seen how resilient the project and community will be after this breach of trust.
