In a commendable move, Maestrobots, the cryptocurrency bot group on Telegram, swiftly responded to a security breach, refunding users a substantial sum of 610 ETH after a recent exploit.
This incident, which occurred on October 24, saw the Maestro team taking immediate action, ensuring none of their users suffered long-term losses. Here's how Maestro's efficient handling of the situation unfolded.
MaestroRouter on ETH mainnet, fell victim to an exploit, resulting in the siphoning of around 280 ETH in various tokens. Despite the sophisticated nature of the attack, Maestro's team detected the breach within 30 minutes and promptly removed the exploit. It is important to note that this attack was directed solely at the Router, and user wallets remained uncompromised throughout the incident.
Maestro responded with integrity, announcing on social media platform X that they would refund all affected users. The affected tokens included prominent ones like LMI, JOE, MOG, BANANA, OGGY, JIM, LP, BSC, and PROPHET, among others. Maestro utilized their own revenue, a total of 610 ETH, valued at over $1 million at that time, to reimburse users.
