Celý článek

An admin wallet for layer-2 blockchain ZKsync was compromised on Tuesday with the hacker taking off with $5 million worth of ZK tokens.

The stolen funds were the "remaining unclaimed tokens from the ZKsync airdrop," ZKsync wrote on Twitter, before saying that "necessary security measures are being taken."

The protocol's ZK token has dropped almost 14% over the past 24 hours. Volume has increased by 96% to $71 million in the same period.

ZKsync said the attack was an isolated incident and that it is confined to the token airdrop contract.
