A compromised contract tied to the WEMIX$ token let an attacker drain 724,198 USDC.e from the protocol.

WEMIX's response was immediate and wide: bridges suspended, liquidity-pool trading halted, several other services taken offline. The dollar figure is modest by the standards of major DeFi exploits.

The scope of the shutdown is not. What broke and what moved The attacker's entry point was a contract linked to WEMIX$. Once inside, roughly 724,000 USDC.e moved out.

WEMIX did not, in its public account of events, specify how the contract was compromised or whether the funds remain with the attacker.
