Resolv Protocol Incident Analysis
On 22 March 2026, the Revolv protocol was exploited, resulting in a loss of ~$26.8M due to a compromise of the project's cloud infrastructure which gave access to Resolv’s AWS Key Management Service (KMS).
Movie Token Incident Analysis
On 10 March 2026, the Movie Token (MT) contract was exploited for approximately $242,000 due to a critical flaw in its 'sell' logic. The vulnerability stemmed from a double-counting error: when a user sold MT tokens, the contract simultaneously transferred them to the liquidity pair for the swap and added that same balance to a pendingBurnAmount variable. When distributeDailyRewards() subsequently burned those pending tokens, it created an artificial supply shock, inflating the MT price and allowing the attacker to drain value from the pool.
