PORT3 Bridge Hacked: Attacker Steals Entire 1 Billion PORT3 Supply and Dumps via GlueX Protocol

PORT3 Bridge Hacked: Attacker Steals Entire 1 Billion PORT3 Supply and Dumps via GlueX Protocol
In a shocking turn of events, the #PORT3 bridge suffered a catastrophic security breach, resulting in the theft of the entire maximum supply of PORT3 — a full 1,000,000,000 tokens. According to early on-chain investigations, the attacker immediately moved to liquidate the stolen assets, converting the PORT3$PORT3 holdings into WBNB$WBNB using the GlueX Protocol, a cross-chain liquidity and swap framework. How the Attack Unfolded
Initial blockchain traces suggest that the hacker exploited a vulnerability within the PORT3 bridge’s smart-contract logic, allowing them to mint or unlock the maximum token supply in a single operation. Within minutes, the stolen tokens were routed into the GlueX Protocol, where they were swapped for WBNB in an apparent attempt to obfuscate the trail and secure funds before countermeasures could activate. Market Impact The sudden appearance and rapid liquidation of such a massive amount of PORT3 immediately caused severe volatility across decentralized exchanges. Prices plummeted within seconds as liquidity pools were flooded by the attacker’s sell-off. WBNB markets also saw unusual surges in activity as the hacker executed large-volume conversions through multiple GlueX liquidity routes. Community and Developer Response The PORT3 development team has acknowledged the exploit and is currently collaborating with blockchain security firms to trace the flow of funds and patch the vulnerability. In an early statement, the team urged users to avoid interacting with the affected bridge until further notice. Exchanges and DeFi platforms have also been alerted in an attempt to freeze any identifiable assets tied to the hacker. What Comes Next? With the full token supply compromised, PORT3 faces a critical moment. Developers may need to consider: A token contract migration A hard fork or supply reset Attempts to reverse or isolate the hacker’s asset trail Coordination with major chains and protocols to blacklist suspicious addresses Security analysts warn that this exploit highlights serious risks in cross-chain architecture—especially bridges, which continue to be among the most exploited components in the blockchain ecosystem.

Tom Selleck is tortured daily because of his long-term disease, his friends say

If rumors are to be believed, fans of the 'man behind the mustache' might have considerable cause for alarm over the actor's health. Several articles have recently made the rounds, all with the same premise: Hollywood heartthrob, Tom Selleck is facing rapidly declining health as he suffers from a debilitating bout of arthritis. One such source to lay claim to Selleck's failing health is Ghanamma.com, whose information is supported by The Nation, an online newspaper. Both sources state that Selleck's arthritis is becoming increasingly painful and hindering, to the point where he can no longer do his own stunts. More than that, however, the publications reported that Selleck uses a stunt double not only for demanding, challenging scenes, but also for the more trivial, mundane tasks, such as simply climbing out of his police vehicle on set while filming Blue Bloods. Some days are worse than others for the former action star, unnamed sources said, claiming tha...

Dogecoin surges 30% to a record above 50 cents as speculative crypto trading continues

  Dogecoin , the cryptocurrency based off a viral dog meme from nearly a decade ago, surged 30% on Tuesday to set a new record high at more than 50 cents per coin. The cryptocurrency was trading at about 54 cents, according to data from Coin Metrics. Dogecoin rose to roughly 40 cents per coin last month before falling sharply for several days after the calendar turned to April 20, a date widely celebrated as a marijuana-themed holiday. Dogecoin was started as a joke in 2013 amid a boom in early cryptocurrencies. It was based on a popular internet meme at the time that featured a Shiba Inu dog and cartoon-style text over the image. Its rise in recent months has been highlighted by many as a sign of froth and speculation in the financial markets, particularly among younger investors who started trading during the pandemic. The coin has been boosted in recent weeks by billionaires Elon Musk and Mark Cuban , who have both mentioned Dogecoin on Twitter multiple times. Cuba...
