DxSale responds to the $7.3 million security incident: only affects the 2021 v1 lock-up contract

TechFlow news on May 30, DxSale issued a statement regarding the recent security incident, stating that the vulnerability stemmed from a compatibility issue between BNB Chain’s newly launched Atomic Transaction feature and the early v1 locking contract.

The team indicated that the affected contract is the v1 locking contract launched in 2021, and the problem has been identified and analyzed. According to the official statement, locking contracts of v2 and above remain unaffected, and related contracts have been audited by CertiK, ensuring the safety of locked assets.

DxSale emphasized that all locked funds in subsequent versions, such as v2 and v3, are not impacted by this incident, which is limited to the early v1 architecture.

Previously, the on-chain security community disclosed that DxSale reportedly saw over 1,400 liquidity pools drained due to a contract backdoor or permission issue, involving assets worth approximately $7.3 million, sparking widespread market attention. In response, DxSale attributed the incident to exploitation via BNB Chain’s atomic transaction mechanism, rather than any security flaw in the locking system of subsequent versions.
