A thief exploited a smart contract belonging to the Gondi NFT platform to steal 78 NFTs priced at $230,000. Perhaps the most shocking part of the theft is that the attacker managed to find NFTs still holding any value at all. Around half of the stolen NFTs were taken from a single wallet.According to Gondi, the exploiter took advantage of functionality that allowed users to sell their NFTs to automatically repay loans.Gondi has said it has reimbursed customers by buying them “comparable items” from the same collections as their stolen NFTs, although it seems questionable that this will satisfy customers who purchased products whose whole selling point is that they aren’t interchangeable.

Total loss estimated at $230,000.
