• Merlin, a new DEX on zkSync Era, lost $1.82 due to a bug in its smart contracts or private key mismanagement.

• Some evidence points to an inside job by Merlin’s anonymous developers.

2023 has been one of the worst years for decentralized exchanges in terms of hacking incidents. Multiple DeFi projects on various blockchains have been exploited for millions of dollars.

DEX on zkSync Hacked for $1.82 Million

Merlin, a new decentralized exchange on ایتھرم پرت -2 zkSync Era, experienced a costly exploit on Wednesday. The exchange $1.82 ملین میں ہیک کیا گیا تھا۔.

The hack is especially interesting because of suspicious timing. Merlin received a code audit on Monday from تصدیق نامہ, one of the most reputable smart contract auditors.

In the audit, CertiK said it found no potential bugs that may lead to exploits. However, the firm did mention in the audit that there are certain centralization risks related to how Merlin is managing its private keys.

Reacting to the incident, CertiK said that the exploit is most likely related to a potential “private key management issue” rather than an “exploit as the root-cause.”

“While audits cannot prevent private key issues, we always highlight best practices to projects. Should any foul play be discovered, we will work with the appropriate authorities and share relevant info. Stay tuned for updates.”

Merlin itself has only acknowledged the incident and asked to “revoke connected site access on your wallets/sign permission” but hasn’t yet offered any more details.

And it’s possible that it won’t. Some users are pointing out that the Merlin hack was likely carried out by Merlin insiders due to a bug left out intentionally in the سمارٹ معاہدے.

On top of that, Merlin had just begun publicly selling its token, MAGE. Some users have also pointed out that the developers behind Merlin are anonymous.
