Humanity Protocol’s H token tumbled nearly 90% after a major security breach exposed private keys connected to the project, allowing attackers to drain more than $30 million from at least 17 wallets.
H crashed from $0.68 to as low as $0.079 after the incident surfaced, according to CoinGecko data. The token later recovered to about $0.12, though it remained down 85% over the past 24 hours.
After Humanity Protocol was exploited for more than $30 million, the attacker began dumping H and converting proceeds into ETH, according to on-chain analysts.
Investigators then identified the minting of 100 million H tokens on BNB Chain, adding an estimated $11.4 million in fresh supply and fueling concerns about additional downside pressure.
Those fears intensified when another 100 million H was minted. By then, the attacker had already realized approximately 18,510 ETH ($30.83 million) and 1,548 BNB ($924,000) through the sales of H.
The exploiter still controls around 111 million H, worth approximately $14 million, although on-chain liquidity is now close to being depleted.
Note that the #Humanity hacker has minted another 100M $H on BSC.
By selling $H, the hacker has already obtained 18,510 $ETH($30.83M) and 1,548 $BNB($924K).
The hacker still holds 111.36M $H($14M) ready to be sold.
However, on-chain liquidity is nearly exhausted. 🚨 https://t.co/vSArj5j185pic.twitter.com/aA56QhdNDr
