- The platform is offering a bounty to hackers not to take legal action if the funds are returned.
GMBL.COMPUTER, the ecological decentralized exchange on Arbitrum, has explained today’s key signing leak event about the contract transfer and GMBL worth nearly 500 ETH (about 815,000 USD at current prices) that was stolen from the contract. Upon discovery, all contract interactions were suspended and more than half of the liquidity remained available.
