Abstract Chen said that recently an exploitation was a separate incident that was tied to Cardex, a blockchain fantasy game.
The essence chain, an atherium layer -2 network produced by Iglu Ink, the same unit behind the pudy penguin, confirmed the investigation of the wallet drain reports shared by users on Tuesday, 18 February.
Many users flooded the discarded server of the abstraction with complaints, reporting lost money and demanded refund. Some individuals claimed that Ether (ETH) lost more than $ 100,000. Stress increased due to delay in the abstraction reaction in the case.
However, the team said that an investigation was going on and assured users that the issue was separated from the on-chain fantasy game Cardex. 0xbeans, a member of an abstract team, stated that the core abstract global wallet was unaffected and said that the issue stems from Cardex “Missionling” important wallet credentials. Once the conclusion is available, the person promised updates.
“This issue seems isolated from an app (Cardex seems, please do not interact for time). We are working to go to the bottom of it,” Oxybins Tweeted On X.
Cardex was launched on the L2 series last week, allowing players to interact with the digital trading card on-chain. After the incident, users accused Cardex of pulling a rug on the project’s official Telegram channel. 0xbeans advised users to avoid interacting with Cardex until the next notice and withdraw a resolution pending assets.
In January, the team of Pudi Penguins released by Iglu Inc., the essence team created L2 using ZKSYNC’s zero-knowledge-powered developer toolkit. Investors, including the Founders Fund of Peter Theal, supported the project with a total of $ 11 million in July last July.
