There is some suggestion that the attack included tactics to bypass Solana transaction simulation algorithms.
It looks like funds are split between two different wallets, which suggests a partnership with profit splitting. This likely involves a software developer working with an individual able to get into the Twitter/X account.
At least 3.89M ACT (worth over $1m USD).
"I got drained by this hack and it’s inexcusable for a crypto project to get compromised this way in 2025. How many others were drained? What was the total amount of financial loss? Please do not sweep this under the rug. Many of us supporters affected"
"Our X account has been fully restored after yesterday's security incident.
Through rapid action by our team and invaluable support from @brainchainLLC, we successfully identified and halted the sophisticated phishing attacks targeting our socials.
The phishing links and tweets were flagged and taken down repeatedly while the attackers used a variety of uncommon methods to gain and retain control.
After a thorough security audit, we have implemented enhanced security measures and safeguards to lock down our accounts across multiple platforms."
It does not appear that HoloWorld has provided any information about potential assistance for victims.
