BadgerDAO heist

Hackers Steal $119M From ‘Web3’ Crypto Project With Old School Attack

In a Tweet on Wednesday, BadgerDAO (decentralized autonomous organization) wrote that it received “reports of unauthorized withdrawals of user funds.” According to blockchain security company PeckShield, the hackers stole around 2100 BTC ($118,500,000) and 151 ETH ($679,000) worth of cryptocurrency tokens. 

I like that the hacker can take control of the web infrastructure of a decentralized autonomous organization. Like these words don't mean what one might think they mean.
