- 9,400 SOL Stolen from Bot Wallets via Copied Key Exploit — this brief
Hackers have stolen 9,400 SOL, worth approximately $915,000, from outdated bot wallets by exploiting copied owner-key signatures. The attack was not due to a direct private-key compromise, according to BloomTrading, which denied any such breach.
The incident highlights the risks associated with automated trading systems and the potential vulnerabilities in service controls. The attack targeted older bot wallets, suggesting that outdated security measures may have played a role.
The broader market context shows a decline in the overall crypto market, with
Bitcoin down 2.25% in the past 24 hours and the Fear & Greed Index at 30, indicating a 'Fear' sentiment.
Solana's price has also been affected, dropping 2.67% in the same period.
This incident underscores the importance of maintaining robust security measures, especially for automated trading systems and services that handle significant amounts of cryptocurrency. The Solana network and similar platforms will need to address these vulnerabilities to prevent future attacks.
Looking ahead, investors and users will likely scrutinize the security practices of automated trading services more closely. The incident may also prompt broader discussions about the security of blockchain-based applications and the measures needed to protect user assets.

The chart plots SOL's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from Token Times's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 SOL ≈ ₹10,095.96 (about $97.17), down 2.9% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 9.0% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
