Dev rugs $110k then sends refunds 🥹
$math rug pull, Ekos Genesis Art Collection, and KuCoin Twitter hack
Which kind of Bao are you?
GM Baos,
We're ending the month of April with some insane stories.
Today we cover:
$math rug pull
Ekos Genesis Art Collection
KuCoin Twitter account
Nakamigos holders send $110k to a random wallet
Someone made 60 ETH in 24 hours by saying you could have access to a presale if ETH was sent to a random wallet. And as a Redditor pointed out — there was nothing else shared besides the wallet address. No smart contract or website 🥲
Deletes the Twitter account ➡️ reactivates it ➡️ asks @zachxbt for help refunding presale buyers ➡️ accidentally refunds some people twice because he doesn't know how to make blockchain transactions...
The $math storyline is wild
- raises 60 eth in a presale
- deactivates twitter
- sends eth to wallet with 13 nakamigos
- within 1 hour an IG account with one of his nakamigos is found
- reactivates twitter to apologize, then deactivates
- @zachxbt helps him refund everyone— borovik.eth (@3orovik)

KuCoin's 🐦 account hack
KuCoin's Twitter account was compromised for about 45 minutes the other day 😵💫
1/ The @kucoincom handle was compromised for about 45 mins from 00:00 Apr 24 (UTC+2). A fake activity was posted and unfortunately led to asset losses for several users. KuCoin will fully reimburse all verified asset losses caused by the social media breach and the fake activity.

Through a fake giveaway, the exploiter stole 22,628 USDT from users. Can you imagine how much worse it could've been if KuCoin hadn't caught on so fast?!
Just earlier in the year, Rohinhood's account was hacked and used to promote a scam token ($RBH) on BSC Chain. And then, not even a week later, Azuki's followers lost $750k+ after a wallet drainer link was posted.
The good news is that KuCoin has committed to reimburse everyone who lost money.
