A white hat hacking initiative led by 0xQuit, Yuga Labs' Vice President of Blockchain, resulted in the secure transfer of 3,832 NFTs from various wallets to a safe address. He assured that these assets are secure and will be returned to their legitimate owners once the associated vulnerabilities are addressed.

Michael Figge, CEO of Yuga Labs, confirmed that the vulnerability was identified mere hours before the transfer. This incident is tied to issues with contracts on the Magic Eden platform, where some NFTs were inaccurately recorded as being transacted at a price of 0 ETH. Currently, Magic Eden has not acknowledged a hack nor provided details about the number of affected wallets or the total value of the NFTs involved.
