  • dYdX has announced a security breach and has urged users to avoid the website.
  • The DYDX token has fallen more than 4% since the recent breach, reflecting market concerns.

On July 23, decentralized perpetual exchange dYdX announced on social media that it had suffered a security breach.

The incident comes shortly after Bloomberg reported that dYdX v3 was up for sale.

What happen?

dYdX issued a warning to its users and the broader cryptocurrency community, sharing the news on X to alert everyone to the potential risks, saying:

“Do not visit the website or click on any links until further notice. Updates will be provided as they become available.”

To reassure users, the dYdX team has confirmed that version 4.0 of Cosmos is safe and continues to operate without any issues.

“This message is not related to dYdX v4.”

Should users be concerned?

It is noteworthy that despite the reported breach, dYdX v3’s smart contracts are secure and unaffected.

However, as a precaution, users are advised not to withdraw funds from or interact with the dydx.exchange website until further updates are provided to prevent potential issues or exploits.

Exchange officials, concerned about the situation, commented:

“At least the funds are safe?”

Similar incidents

In fact, recently, WazirX, India’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, also suffered a massive hack. The exchange said that a security breach allowed hackers to steal $230 million worth of digital assets.

These incidents highlight how the growth of the cryptocurrency space comes with its own set of challenges. They also serve as a stark reminder of the importance of cybersecurity in the cryptocurrency world.

Impact on tokens

According to CoinGecko, dYdX’s governance token, ethDYDX, has fallen more than 4% in the past 24 hours following the incident.

Additionally, X user Carlitos pointed out that the price of $DYDX is expected to break below its previous low on the weekly chart.

Adding to the issue, Nick Cote, co-founder and CEO of Second Lane, summed up the situation succinctly when he said:
