Blast-based Crypto Game Munchables Exploited for $63M

Munchables, a nonfungible token (NFT) game built on the Ethereum layer-2 blockchain Blast, has fallen victim to a significant exploit, resulting in a loss of $62 million. The game made the announcement of the breach in a post on X on March 26, stating that it was actively monitoring the exploiter's activities and attempting to halt the transactions. According to Solidity developer 0xQuit, the attack on Munchables was premeditated. One of the developers allegedly upgraded the Lock contract, which is designed to lock tokens for a specific period, with a new implementation shortly before the game's launch. Cygaar also called for the Blast team to intervene and roll back the chain to a state before the attack occurred.
