Munchables Recovers $62M Stolen in Ethereum Exploit, Linked to Rogue North Korean

By: Isha Das

The popular NFT game Munchables has successfully reclaimed $62 million in ether, previously stolen during an exploit. The scrutiny has recently increased on a rogue North Korean team member who is associated with the fraudulent act.

The broader crypto community had previously made calls for a controversial chain rollback as a measure to recover the stolen funds. Following the chain rollback, the exploiter returned the private keys to the prominent Web 3 firm.

Blast's founder Tieshun Roquerre has issued a warning for other protocols connected to Blast, such as Juice Finance, stating that they have also been affected by the incident.
