Public chain Phantasma was hacked, and the attacker exploited a protocol vulnerability to mint a large number of additional $KCAL and $SOUL tokens on BNB Chain. The Phantasma team said in Discord that the exploit was discovered within 20 minutes and all cross chain swaps were disabled within 30 minutes of the incident to reduce the impact of the incident. At this time 500k $SOUL had been swapped from BNB Chain to Ethereum along with 20M $KCAL. The $SOUL has already been sold. The team reminds users that tokens in liquidity pools on Uniswap and PancakeSwap should be withdrawn to err on the side of caution until the investigation has concluded. And the team will snapshot the token shares before the attack and deploy new token contracts and associated airdrops to holders.
