On Tuesday, the wallet of the ZKsync blockchain administrator was hacked, resulting in the hacker stealing $5 million worth of ZK tokens.
The stolen funds consisted of “unused tokens left over from the ZKsync airdrop,” the ZKsync team said on Twitter, adding that “necessary security measures are being implemented.”
The ZK protocol token has fallen nearly 14% in the last 24 hours. Trading volume has increased 96% to $71 million in the same period.
ZKsync stated that the attack was an isolated incident and only affected the token distribution contract.
