UXLINK’s CEO has published a September security incident review, revealing that hackers used deepfake video calls and social-engineering tactics to compromise the devices of several SAFE key holders. The attackers stole sensitive credentials, gained control of the legacy arb-UXLINK contract, and caused losses exceeding $11 million.
The team has filed criminal reports across multiple jurisdictions and recovered part of the stolen funds, which have been directed to buybacks. Major security upgrades have been implemented across signing devices, internal processes, and system architecture. Additionally, the DAO approved unlocking an extra 12% of token supply to compensate affected users.
