Incident Overview
GNUS.ai posted on Twitter: “Due to a recent exploit, a hacker was able to mint fake GNUS tokens on Fantom, transfer them via Axelar Bridge to Ethereum and Polygon, and sell them into existing liquidity pools. We will be conducting a snapshot at the block preceding the exploit. To ensure fairness, please refrain from purchasing GNUS tokens post-exploit, as we'll be issuing a new token.”
