On September 16, DeBot issued a digital asset news alert following a security breach flagged by team member Cat. Affected wallets have been isolated, with native and stablecoin assets mapped 1:1 to new keyless wallets. Meme tokens will be partially migrated. Users can still withdraw tokens, but private keys cannot be exported. No losses have been reported. Old wallets should no longer be used or funded, as new deposits may not be migrated.

BlockBeats report: On September 16, a DeBot team member named Cat stated that early this morning, DeBot received an alert regarding a wallet security risk and immediately initiated emergency protection measures. The affected wallets have been temporarily isolated; the native and stablecoin assets within these wallets will be "1:1 mapped" to a new keyless wallet, while some meme tokens will be partially transferred to the new wallet, which remains secure for trading. During the protection period, users can still withdraw and transfer tokens normally, but exporting private keys is temporarily disabled. The exact time for restoration will be announced separately.


As of the issuance of this notice, no anomalies in user assets have been detected. Important reminder: Once the migration process for your wallet begins, please stop using the old wallet. If you notice that assets on other chains (e.g., Polygon) or meme coins have not been migrated, please transfer them promptly. Do not deposit or transfer any additional assets to the old wallet; any new assets sent to the old wallet after migration begins may not be automatically migrated during this upgrade and could affect future usage. This adjustment is a proactive, preventive upgrade initiated by the platform. Your assets are currently secure—there is no need for concern, as the system will complete the upgrade automatically.
