Reports emerged earlier today indicating that the team behind MetaSwap – a protocol enabling NFT swaps over Ethereum, Binance, and Polygon – has stolen 1,100 BNB. Shortly after, the native token tanked.
The blockchain security and data analytics resource – PeckShield – detected suspicious behavior coming from the MetaSwap team and suggested a soft-rug pull.
More precisely, the company said the team behind the NFT swapping platform had stolen 1,100 BNB (worth appr. $605,000) and transferred it to TornadoCash – an Ethereum-based tool developed to break the on-chain link between the recipient and destination addresses.
PeckShield also said the MetaSwap’s native token – MGAS – had dumped by nearly 50%.
